I know my life has gotten to "pathetic" stage when I looked out the window today and my first thought honestly was, "Wow. I'll bet the OMG Windy? thread is up and going."

After all these years, I love listening to my UNREAL playlist, whilst playing Unreal Tournament GOTYE. Currently, it's "Ringfinger" by NIN.

I was just going to say how much I love rain - sooo cozy, especially the sound. But, then I saw your pictures, VC and I don't think many people would agree with my sentiment!

OH, yeah.... forgot about that. But, then quite a bit has changed from the books (I just thought I was mis-remembering a lot, as it's been a while since I've read the first books).

LOL - she can actually to the wave with her eyebrows! Amazing!

I hope not! Have to wait because my guy is still reading the 3rd book and it's soooo much better read than watched, I always feel (although sneaking a peek may just be in order!)

Don't know how to do spoiler option, so just in case: SPOILER!!!!!!!!! I haven't seen the episode yet, but I was on a plane when reading the chapter. Obviously, I couldn't do a very verbal outburst at the time, but I remember wanting to chuck the book. I simply looked helplessly at my questioning hubby and kept reading, only to become more and more overwhelmed. SOOOOOOOO amazingly written. REALLY glad I read it before watching it - George RR Martin's account could NEVER be as dramatically captured on the screen as in writing. Arya riding up to the gates - not very often I had such a feeling of utter despair when reading a book. Brilliant.

I have to agree, after waiting so long, that was a disappointing episode. I feel like they have a checklist as to what has to be mentioned/covered and are just going through that list, ticking it off. I was way more enthralled reading it - so much more emotion. I know that there is a lot of ground to cover, but it's the journey that's more important, IMO.

Totally agree. I love Davos in the books and at least the actor is portraying him as I pictured, but there is just something missing in the feel of the character in the show - can't put my finger on it. Maybe in time....

That was funny!

It is getting sooooo close! Happy dance!

I'll keep at it - sure haven't been disappointed with the previous books! Wow - with watching the trailers, I am now a bit sad that I've read ahead so far, though. But, this season will be intense. Can't wait to see how they will portray particular events.

Does book 5 pick up at all??? I hate to admit it, but 300 pages in and it's the first book of the series that I don't find myself aching to read. I'd heard that 4 was boring, but I loved it, so maybe there's hope? LOL

Agreed - wow, that classic!

That's going to be pretty intense. I was watching one of the teaser trailers (the one with the "their world enters our world" theme - three eyed crow) and the song that is sung during the trailer is apparently the song that is sung before the RW incident. *shudder*

Book 3 was totally my favourite so far (only about 200 pages into Dances, so maybe that'll be my fave? Trying not to read it, though because I don't want to have to wait for book 6 in agony LOL) Totally excited for this season. So much "big stuff".

I was just listening to my Unreal Tournament GOTY edition soundtrack playlist (while playing): ~with Zeromancer, Slipknot, Cruxshadows, The Tea Party, Rob Zombie, Queensryche, Nine Inch Nails, Disturbed, Repo! and even The Cult, Chalk Cirlce, and Michael Hutchence. Got my butt handed to me, though.

Good cover! One of my fave songs. They totally grabbed the energy and gusto of the song. My heart still lies with Faith No More's version, though.

Just checked the SFU webcam (Convocation) and NOTHING is being drawn in the snow. Lazy university students!

I usually love the rain because it sounds so cozy, but last night, coupled with the wind, it woke me up, darn it!!

Does tipsy count?

I apologize if this has been posted already (sorry...feeling too lazy to go through 30 pages of thread posts ) I've been looking to see what new DLC will show up (I've been hoping for new houses, as the selection isn't all that great - liked Oblivion better for that). Anyway, found this...not neccessarily DLC, but neat ideas (it was a free-for-all for the Bethesda team). I love the Kinect dragon shouts - what I wouldn't give to yell FUS RO DAH at my T.V. ! And of course, the build your own house! http://kotaku.com/5883580/kinect+enabled-shouts-and-dragon-mounts-will-skyrims-game-jam-experiments-ever-see-the-light-of-day/gallery/1?tag=theelderscrolls

Upside down witch hats falling from the sky, maybe? More probable than the funnel cloud.

Oooh! Oooh! I just checked in. Looks like it's snowing, but no one is doing anything yet. GEE WHIZ!!! What is TAKING so LONG??
