The only two books I've read in the past eight years are Duff McKagan's It's So Easy (And Other Lies) and Sammy Hagar's Red: My Uncensored Life In Rock. I started to read Keith Richard's Life but I got bored because I couldn't visualize his early childhood because I've (unfortunately) never been to London. One of these days, I'll finish it. Probably after I've caught up on all new Amazon and Netflix TV series I haven't seen. |

And Red was an easy, great read. Sammy Hagar is pretty much a badass. |

Born poor, on welfare while signed to Capitol Records?! Essentially creates the whole mountain biking shop/phenomena, then creates a fire alarm company that is/was the second largest of its kind in the whole world? Joins Van Halen, delivers #1 records, then turns Cabo San Lucas from a small, sleepy fishing village to a prime vacation spot AND creates a tequila company, sells it for $80 million while retaining 20% ownership? And to top that, every one that I know that's met or done business with him says he's the coolest guy ever (unfortunately, I've never had the pleasure). Coolest guy maybe ever. |

Fun Fact: Sammy's '67 is the FIRST ever reproduction '67 Mustang ever made. As in, his car isn't actually from 1967. It's a completely new car from a body that rolled off the assembly line in...i wanna say around '07. Our shop built the 2nd.

So, Zombies. Really?
I find Zombies about as exciting as diarrhea. |

With all due respect, I doubt you would have made it through Season 5 if they opted to faithfully adapt Book 4.

Then again I'd be a little surprised if they don't have access to some kind of ARC. |

Agreed and I've read the books. To Dane's point though, this season would have been equally as interesting if they only screened the last 3 eps we'd have been no worse off...

I just read about Wylla on Wiki, and yeah it just re enforces that she's not Jons mother.

Ummm... since the very first episode there have been "zombies" in the show. They have all been the talk of what Jon has been trying to save the realm from, the White Walkers. Which have "zombies" as their army. This has been shown many times. WTF?

And they are not your garden variety zombies. There are your typical undead unthinking brutes but there is also a command structure so it's like fighting a huge army that doesn't die (unless you burn them or use dragonglass/valyrian steel) and can convert your dead into their ranks. To simply call them zombies is missing the point.

Yeah, I never met him, but everyone involved with him spoke glowingly.

So it looks like no Kit Harrington, GRR Martin or Dan/Dave at Comic Con. Like he says in the video....it's pretty much always been a given that if they kill you off on the show...you're at the next Comic Con as kind of a "farewell" to talk about your death and how awesome the show is. Melisandre will be there....but she's supposed to be working on a movie with Kit this summer. Basically it looks like they don't want to accidentally release any info about how Jon is coming back or what he's coming back as. |
