There's a nice little detail you picked-up that should make one early scene in book one slightly sweeter. Book one: Book two: Meaning:

As Greg Brown was saying on Twitter, try John Williams's novel Stoner. I'm reading it. When I'm not reading it, I'm thinking about it. I echo Greg's sentiment about it being a deep well of introspection. If we're going to take some hyperbole, it's been described as something rarer than a great novel: it is a perfect novel. Apparently. I'll let time decide where it fits between "good" and "perfect" in my own head, but I suspect it's at least "great". Which isn't so bad, if you think about it. Read this.

And with that, IGN has become a parody of my idea of a bad games website.

Today I chucked some men in the ocean for the Drowned God and burned others for R'hllor in the hopes that The Winds of Winter comes-out soon, and is as good as I want it to be, because I am so stoked.

That's technically a spoiler. Best put the tags!

Brimming with stuff like that. You keep chugging along!

I'll tell you one of them. Just one of GRRM's great touches.. As for the other thing, you might figure it out before the book's out, although I certainly didn't. But think really hard.

Aye. That part. Notice anything about that part? If you don't figure it out, it's OK! I'll let you know when you're done reading.

What part, exactly? I think you've passed my favourite ever "hidden" thing. Did you read the chapter entitled "The Prince of [something]*"? * hidden for spoilers

I love book two, but it benefits a lot from a quick re-read after going through the rest.

If you've read A Storm of Swords...get excited.

I took Sequence, since nobody seemed interested.

All hail Kim Swift (and co). This could've worked in Portal, I think.

I feel like I ought to buy some games and put some keys up as a "Thank you!"

My friend nabbed Sam and Max season 3. He's a lurker around here. I took Cargo. Thanks Twig!

(I usually pay something like $30 or thereabouts; it costs me, but it's just my principles.) My credit card died. Alas. Good thing I don't actually need any of this stuff. I should go now.

Well, it's a spare copy, sure, I'll take Saints Row: The Third. Ifit'sspareonly.

I haven't got Darksiders or Red Faction: Armageddon, but feel weird asking for either of them. So I won't. But you're a swell dude, ysberker.

That's for British keyboards. Your shift+2 is a double quotation, right?

Also, regarding the heart surgery, good luck!

Did you draw that? That's good!

There is no god. Disturbing and graphic, from Gaza.

I'm reading Music for Chameleons. Some entries are better than others. I wonder if Truman Capote will be remembered in two hundred years, though.

Wasn't that part of some trilogy, or was the "trilogy" related only by theme?

It might be me, but I've only seen girls doing it. I'm sure it's a thing people do, though.
