Daemon leads forces toward Tumbleton


they frick up everything they touch. Just put the book on the screen. It's simple.
I watched this movie the first time by myself since my wife doesn't care for sci-fi. Had not read the book so I had no idea what was coming. Loved the movie enough to get my wife and oldest kid to watch it.

Then bought the audiobook. I think the movie is damn near perfect. The audiobook is even better.

2001? holy shite. To this day I still make bent pen comments when someone talks about going to a chiropractor

Very random Nettles mention in the episode as well.


I caught it and then wondered what the point of that mention is.

Then I came to the conclusion that, like everything else in the show, it was just the writer trying to be clever and failing.

Have they said how many seasons there will be? There's some pretty important events coming up that are significant to the story. So do we end this season with First Tumbleton? Seems most likely. I thought we'd have this by mid-season. I thought we'd end this season above the God's Eye, but can understand the writer's wanting to make sure those characters are in the next season. If we are going all the way from First Tumbleton to Aegon's death in only one more season, they are going to have to cut out all the bullshite and have huge episode's every week.

Those things are everywhere right now. We have several that hang around here.

A couple years ago I saw a dozen or more hunting a particular pasture. It was awesome.

are these worth a shite? That's a hard price to pass up for a utility 1911
Me and the kids eat them fried like chicken nuggets. I don't bother grilling them anymore because they are so easy to overcook.
I think I would enjoy the show more if I had not read the book and know what's different and what's to come.

I find myself sitting there thinking "let's get on with it" instead of enjoying the show.

Has anyone tried a striped donkey?


according to someone I trust completely, zebra was the best meat he ate in Africa, which included kudu, cape buffalo, eland, impala, warthog, waterbuck, nyala and giraffe
Elk is my favorite game meat. That said, I really liked nilgai and oryx when I had it and would love to put one in the freezer. Never had axis.

YMMV though, I’ve eaten some damn good meals made with javelina.
be careful with the Imazapyr, it's soil active and can damage trees you might be treating something else near or under

I can't drill the same spot because I suck at shooting, but I can absolutely take the can on and off and it doesn't change the POI

I own 4 Burris Signature HD in 3-15 x 44 with the ballistic e3 reticle. I love them and can't make myself spend more on a rifle scope when these do exactly what I am looking for every time.

If I was limited to one rifle for North American hunting, this would be it. For that matter, it would work on everything on this planet short of dangerous game

I loved All My Tomorrows, but the last ones I had were badly over-carbonated. Still, it was probably the best Great Raft beer I’ve had.
