I mean, those movies were made in the 40s. He had to wear pants so you wouldn't see his ... wolf dork.

All I know is that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a government.

Steve Perry. (I try, anyway.)

And you guys paid for all those songs, right? :) The RIAA is listening.... -Ryan

Because when it was good, it was really good, much like crack cocaine. Book 4 was the high. Book 10 was the rotting teeth and male prostitution. I want my 20 bucks back, Jordan! :) -Ryan

If you ever take a trip down to Cobb County Georgia, You better read the signs that protect the law and order! Sorry, couldn't resist.

Would you prefer the recording to be candid? I'm fascinated by your idea. -Ryan

Which brings up another thing that has nagged me about the series. What the heck happened to the whole Targaryen family? Surely there were many cousins, etc? Were they all slaughtered? We know that Maester Aemon was allowed to live. -Ryan

In light of this, do you think Stannis will step down when Dany comes to Westeros? What will happen if Melisandre realizes her mistake (assuming she is mistaken about Stannis) and throws her support elsewhere? Assuming the theories about Jon Snow are correct, how would Stannis react to that...

This is actually a great question, and something that I have thought about myself. Religion plays a large role in the books, especially when you consider that magic and religion seem to be intertwined in Martin's world. However, if these religions lay down a moral code, it certainly hasn't...

I don't know the page number, but it's somewhere in the last third of ACoK. Jaime is the dungeons at Riverrun, and Catelyn goes down to speak with him. It seems like the answer should be obvious, so it bothers me that I can't figure it out. He might have been referring to Tyrion. Surely...

I have a question for you guys. Last night, I was reading the chapter in which Catelyn interrogates Jaime. Jaime mentioned that he was "loved by one for a kindness [he] never performed, and reviled by many for [his] finest act." I know that his "finest act" was the murder of Aerys, but I...

Wow. I was considering getting a Pocket PC and writing an app, but it appears that Beerskunk already has it covered. :) Besides, my fiancee won't let me get a Pocket PC. No more toys, she says, we have to save for a house. :( -Ryan

They're both really fast (way faster than what I have, eh). If you buy RDRAM, you're supporting RAMBUS, which just happens to be one of the most evil, lame IP corporations ever, so I'd get DDR if my motherboard supported it. If you've already bought the motherboard, get whatever it supports...

During the parley between Renly, Stannis, and Catelyn, at the siege of Storm's End, Stannis makes a comment to the effect that Margeary will remain a maid so long as she shares a bed with Renly. -Ryan

Spoilers . . . . . . . . . . . . I just wanted to resurrect this old thread in light of new data from book 10. To the point: Egwene has done nothing to improve my low opinion of her. My main complaint pertains to her reaction when she hears that there are Aes Sedai following Rand. She...

I pretty much agree with everything that's been said. I had defended Jordan and his books even after The Path of Daggers. Winter's Heart gave me some hope. Crossroads of twilight just plain sucked. At least Bela had a cameo in this one. -Ryan

I'll check the model number when I get home, but it's your standard non-wireless 4-port Cable/DSL Router. I had a debian box behind the firewall with http and ssh forwarded, and no problems. Then again, SMC doesn't exactly have a reputation for great products, so I wouldn't be surprised if...

Well, I'm a programmer, not a network guy...but why would you need to forward tcp to the DMZ host? I ask because I have a Barricade and tcp forwarding works fine (to hosts behind the firewall). If I wanted to expose a service to the public, I'd use either tcp forwarding or DMZ host, but not...

Woohoo! I am as proud as Michael Jackson when he won his Artist of the Millennium "award"!
