[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:06:09 PM] <Jerusha> Hi Everyone!

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:06:25 PM] <Jerusha> Thanks in advance, Alkari>
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:06:37 PM] <DesertRose> HI KK, Hi Jerusha.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:06:40 PM] <Evie> that's right, your birthday is this coming week, isn't it?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:06:48 PM] <Jerusha> Yes, it is.

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:07:09 PM] <Jerusha> Thanks, Bee!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:07:47 PM] <Jerusha> Hi KK
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:08:11 PM] <Kelsa> Hi folks - been a long time
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:08:52 PM] <the_Bee> Hi, Kelsa
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:08:55 PM] <Evie> hi, Kelsa
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:02 PM] <Jerusha> Hi Kelsa
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:09 PM] <jemler> hi kelsa, festil
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:09 PM] <DesertRose> Hey, KK, y'all got pretty thoroughly stormed on, i
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:11 PM] <the_Bee> Always glad to see old chattters return
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:12 PM] <DesertRose> I'm guessing.

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:44 PM] <KK> We didn't get much. A bit of rain and wind--same as our usual storme for this time of year.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:48 PM] <DesertRose> Here's the pic I linked earlier, in my own Photobucket account.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:09:59 PM] <DesertRose> Oh, good. Did y'all even lose power?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:34 PM] <KK> No.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:35 PM] <Kelsa> We had a lot of rain and wind too (Massachusetts), and lost power for most of the day, but got it back around 11pm that night
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:36 PM] <Jerusha> Nice picture, DR
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:41 PM] <DesertRose> Of course, you're a native Floridian, so storms are not news to you. :)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:48 PM] <DesertRose> Thanks, Jerusha.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:54 PM] <KK> Burn during one, used to hurricanes.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:10:57 PM] <KK> Born
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:04 PM] <Jerusha> Whew
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:11 PM] <the_Bee> I was lucky: no power loss, and Melantha was a bigger nuisance than Sandy.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:31 PM] <DesertRose> Kelsa, I'm glad y'all came through okay. Losing power is no fun, and there are some people who still don't have it back.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:35 PM] <DesertRose> Good, Bee. :)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:40 PM] <DesertRose> Did Melantha panic?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:11:41 PM] <KK> What did Melantha do
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:06 PM] <Alkari> Probably wanted to sit on you did she?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:12 PM] <the_Bee> She woke me up 2 hours early, but she seemed hungry, not panicked.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:16 PM] <DesertRose> LOL
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:18 PM] <Kelsa> It wasn't too bad - my son, hubby and I played monopoly for hours by the candle light. It was nice "family time"
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:33 PM] <DesertRose> Monopoly can take hours. :)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:40 PM] <Alkari> Days even!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:50 PM] <DesertRose> True, Alkari.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:12:51 PM] <Evie> Having fun with my littles ... http://www.flickr.com/photos/9573389@N08/8155918230/ and http://www.flickr.com/photos/9573389@N08/8155886105/
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:16 PM] <Evie> that's one way to use the time
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:20 PM] <Kelsa> yeah - and my son won EVERYTHING. It was fun (not that my hubby thought so...he hates losing)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:26 PM] <Evie> :-D
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:43 PM] <DesertRose> How old is your son, Kelsa.

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:45 PM] <jemler> once, when my older brother and i were grounded, we played for like 3 days!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:49 PM] <DesertRose> Hi cynicalmedic.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:51 PM] <jemler> hi cm
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:13:54 PM] <Evie> hi, CM
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:01 PM] <Kelsa> He's 17...getting ready for college next year
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:02 PM] <the_Bee> Which cat is that? and which mini Deryni?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:07 PM] <cynicalmedic> Evening,all
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:11 PM] <DesertRose> Oh, wow. Grown up, or very nearly.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:12 PM] <Kelsa> Hi CM
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:21 PM] <Evie> Bee, that's Luke with Duncan and Arilan.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:22 PM] <Jerusha> Hi CM
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:26 PM] <the_Bee> Hi CM
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:30 PM] <Kelsa> yes. Mixed feelings on it
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:45 PM] <Evie> Duncan is in the gray, Denis is in purple
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:47 PM] <DesertRose> I hear that. My daughter (only child) turned 20 in September, and I'm like, where'd the time go?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:52 PM] <Jerusha> Don't worry, they come back
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:14:55 PM] <Evie> wow, already,DR?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:04 PM] <DesertRose> Yup.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:12 PM] <DesertRose> They grow up so freaking fast.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:16 PM] <Evie> I have a 17 year old son too, Kelsa
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:32 PM] <Alkari> Hi CM. No more car accidents with third car?!!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:32 PM] <Kelsa> We spent the day working on his college application essay. It's so hard for him to write and I...being an English major...have such a hard time understanding the issues he's experiencing
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:42 PM] <jemler> she'll move back in when she's 21, and it'll be like she 13 all over again! :)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:55 PM] <cynicalmedic> Haven't gotten a new one yet/
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:15:57 PM] <Jerusha> Yup
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:12 PM] <DesertRose> Aw. Yeah, I know that feeling. My daughter is much more math-and-science oriented than I am, although she's a good writer for a science type.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:15 PM] <Alkari> LOL.

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:37 PM] <Jerusha> CM, are you looking for a tank, next?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:46 PM] <DesertRose> Hi derynifanatic64.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:46 PM] <Jerusha> Hi DF
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:16:52 PM] <Kelsa> I read about the accident, CM. Glad you weren't hurt
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:17:09 PM] <the_Bee> The ability to explain science in lay-poeople's terms is a valuable skill.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:17:16 PM] <jemler> hi df64
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:17:21 PM] <cynicalmedic> :Horse and buggy = more organic

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:18:00 PM] <Kelsa> He's good with math, but hates to read. It kills me.

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:18:50 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12hi to our new arrivals
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:19:32 PM] <DesertRose> MadMcC: are you new? I don't think I've seen you in chat before.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:19:49 PM] <the_Bee> Welcome, Mad McC. are you a new chatter or and old one returning?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:05 PM] <MadMcC> I am newish. I have come before, but it was a year ago.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:12 PM] <Imladris> how did our friends do w/ the storm?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:17 PM] <Jerusha> Welcome back
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:22 PM] <jemler> welcome back!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:24 PM] <the_Bee> glad you and Imladris are here.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:35 PM] <Evie> welcome back, and nice to see you again, Imladris
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:53 PM] <Kelsa> So, I have been totally out of touch. Last I remember, we were discussing the potential of a Deryni movie. What's the story with that these days?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:20:59 PM] <DesertRose> Well, welcome back, MadMcC.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:21:36 PM] <the_Bee> The movie was on the back burner last I heard. Anything new, KK?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:21:40 PM] <Imladris> was on Barnes and Noble and Amazon, and didn't realize was soooo long since the previous book.....
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:21:53 PM] <MadMcC> Thanks. I picked up an old copy of The Bishop's Heir at a used bookstore and it got me thinking of Katherine's work again.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:22:35 PM] <Evie> Also wondering if we've moved on to Chapter 30 in CM3 yet?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:22:40 PM] <Kelsa> I was starting my Christmas list and went to see if there were any new books available - which is what reminded me of this chatroom :-)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:22:49 PM] <Imladris> Why was the Adept 2 book never in Hardcover over here? Took me forever to get one from the UK>
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:22:51 PM] <Kelsa> CM3?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:06 PM] <Imladris> Childe Morgan
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:07 PM] <Evie> Childe Morgan 3. (Working title)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:20 PM] <the_Bee> third volume, Childe Morgan trilogy
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:22 PM] <Kelsa> Yes, I'm anxiously waiting for that one
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:25 PM] <Jerusha> KK, any hint of a title for CM3 yet?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:41 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12we all are
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:53 PM] <Jerusha> Oh yes!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:56 PM] <Kelsa> I honestly haven't read the other two yet as I'm waiting for the 3rd.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:23:56 PM] <Alkari> Maybe we all contribute suggestions :D
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:24:39 PM] <Imladris> "The Long-Awaited Third Volume"?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:24:39 PM] <Kelsa> I always reread the books from the beginning when I read a new novel, so wanted to wait until that one was near completion before diving in again
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:07 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12maybe a contest--the winner gets the first copy off the press and signed by KK
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:18 PM] <Kelsa> That would be nice!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:21 PM] <Imladris> Actually, that long-awaited title thinks goes to 954
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:23 PM] <Alkari> LOL. Good thinking

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:29 PM] <KK> There's enough break between the books tht one could easily go ahead and read the first two.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:34 PM] <jemler> hi dm
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:38 PM] <KK> No, no closer to a title.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:25:43 PM] <DomMelchior> Good evening all

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:26:01 PM] <Alkari> Hello DM

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:26:05 PM] <cynicalmedic> Hi DM
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:26:09 PM] <Kelsa> By "break between the books", do you mean the story or the writing?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:26:32 PM] <the_Bee> time gap?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:26:49 PM] <Kelsa> in the story line?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:27:40 PM] <Imladris> er 948.....
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:27:43 PM] <KK> Breaks in story.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:27:53 PM] <Kelsa> It's just that, knowing that this one is nearing completion, I'm waiting to start rereading them rather than reread them all twice - once for the two I have and again when CM3 arrives
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:28:21 PM] <Jerusha> You can't read them too often
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:04 PM] <Evie> And even if KK finished the book this week, there's usually a bit of a wait between finishing the writing and the book actually being in print. So might as well go ahead and read them.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:14 PM] <DesertRose> Yup.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:15 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12all the books are worth reading over and over
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:16 PM] <jemler> well, you can. thqt's when they fall apart.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:23 PM] <Imladris> Niece has finished the first three kelson's and have her the second three.. .would have had her do pub order.. but couldn't find the extra camber of culdi I have.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:39 PM] <Imladris> esp. the early version paperbacks....
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:29:51 PM] <Kelsa> No...but I do have other authors (some of which are also prolific) that I enjoy reading...and I work for a living, so don't have that much spare time. Someday I'll retire and will then be able to do nothing but read books!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:02 PM] <Alkari> LOL.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:08 PM] <Imladris> but not as bad as the C.S. Lewis paperbacks, fell apart on me w/ first reading.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:17 PM] <Jerusha> I have to treat my original volume of Deryni Rising very carefully
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:20 PM] <Alkari> That's what I am enjoying - being able to do lots of reading
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:24 PM] <DesertRose> Yeah, I've killed a copy of The Quest for St. Camber, because the original copy I had was used and not in great shape, so I've since replaced it.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:45 PM] <Imladris> that's why I like to get the hard covers....
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:45 PM] <Alkari> I've replaced High Deryni once, and soe of the other volumes are heavily taped together
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:57 PM] <Imladris> I am hard on paperbacks.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:30:59 PM] <DesertRose> My copy of Deryni Magic is close to the falling apart stage.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:07 PM] <the_Bee> mine too
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:08 PM] <jemler> right now i's reading the Xanth series. just taking a break.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:16 PM] <Alkari> I have the Kng Kelson trilogy in hardback
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:24 PM] <Imladris> KK? why did lodge of the lynx never come out in hardcover in the US?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:38 PM] <DesertRose> I probably have to replace my hardback copy of High Deryni, because I loaned it to a now ex-friend.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:31:58 PM] <DesertRose> And I rather doubt I'll ever get it back.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:32:05 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:(
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:32:15 PM] <Imladris> except for Kelson, and first camber series, got all when they were published in Hardcover.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:32:27 PM] <Imladris> No way could wait for paperbacks.....
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:32:59 PM] <MadMcC> I would love to get the Camber books in hardcover. That is my favorite time frame.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:02 PM] <jemler> i found TBH by accident and read it in one night.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:06 PM] <the_Bee> I found DR at the library where I was working. I bought it when I discovered there was a sequel.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:09 PM] <DesertRose> Oh, me too, MadMcC
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:15 PM] <Imladris> E-Bay, is good source.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:19 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12i've bought both hard and paperback versions of certain books
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:25 PM] <Kelsa> I like Xanth. I'm into Mercedes Lackey books too. She's very prolific. But right now, I'm reading Terry Goodkind.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:27 PM] <cynicalmedic> Alibris, too
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:30 PM] <Imladris> can sometimes get in a lot.. and save shipping.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:33 PM] <DesertRose> I love Camber's timeframe, even though some of the events are very sad.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:33:59 PM] <the_Bee> I quit reading Goodkind. A bit too bloodthirsty
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:03 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12Terry Brook's Shannara series are also good
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:07 PM] <Kelsa> I still have the original pb of Camber's books. I am actually very gentle with PB's - most don't even look like I've read them - something that drives my hubby nuts
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:10 PM] <MadMcC> They are sad, but the characters are great.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:11 PM] <the_Bee> Yes!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:12 PM] <Imladris> Still get teary-eyed in KJY
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:21 PM] <Kelsa> First thing he does is crack the binding on a pb. I cringe every time!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:28 PM] <KK> The adept eries started out as a 3 book paperback package, but when they did well, they commissioned 2 more. And the Brits did hardcover first, when they picked up the series.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:31 PM] <Alkari> I am slowly re-reading A Song of Ice and Fire ... at least as far as G Martin has gone so far!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:33 PM] <jemler> c'mon dr! what's so sad about all the main characters getting killed?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:44 PM] <Alkari> THAT is bloodthirsty
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:34:45 PM] * DesertRose smacks jemler with a mackerel.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:02 PM] <Jerusha> Jerusha whips out a barrage of smelt
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:10 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12JEMLER!!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:11 PM] <Imladris> The first and third were in hard cover here, though.... just not the second??
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:22 PM] <DomMelchior> On no, flying fish!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:36 PM] <DesertRose> Where there is jemler, there are bad jokes and therefore flying fish. :)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:39 PM] <cynicalmedic> GRRM drives me nuts - I like his writing, but he does mean things to his characters
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:47 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12and a bunch of salmon
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:35:56 PM] <the_Bee> GRRM?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:04 PM] <DesertRose> George R R Martin.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:12 PM] <the_Bee> ah, thanks
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:25 PM] <Jerusha> No one seems to survive unscathed
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:33 PM] <DesertRose> Wrote the books that the TV series A Game of Thrones is based on.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:41 PM] <cynicalmedic> especially the ones I like
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:42 PM] <Alkari> LOL. I have this vision that all the 'bad' guys will survive!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:36:52 PM] <Imladris> Read the first Shannara when it was published, Hildebrants and all. but loved his Landover better.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:19 PM] <the_Bee> anyone else waiting for the finale to the Wheel of Time series?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:35 PM] <Alkari> No. Got bored with the series :(
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:35 PM] <Kelsa> KK - what authors do you read? I always wonder why my favorite authors read for pleasure
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:38 PM] <Imladris> Got to meet Greg Hildebrandt this past spring.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:39 PM] <cynicalmedic> If Theon Greyjoy is the hero of the whole thing - I am going to swear off all fantasy, other than the Dernyi
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:37:48 PM] <the_Bee> I enjoyed the prequel to Shannara.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:38:30 PM] <Alkari> ROFL @ Theon Greyjoy
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:38:42 PM] <Alkari> *I* reckon Jaime Lannister should end up as King :D
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:02 PM] <Evie> Yes, well, you also reckon his actor should be cast as Alaric Morgan. ;-)
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:23 PM] <DesertRose> BRB
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:24 PM] <Alkari> He's probably a little old for Alaric other than in KKB
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:24 PM] <Imladris> haven't read that, but if it is like Donaldson where you want to shake the protaganist. and knock some sense into him or yell just make a decision!!!!!
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:33 PM] <cynicalmedic> Oh dear-can he be the King, since he is maimed now?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:49 PM] <the_Bee> not in ancient Ireland
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:39:53 PM] <Alkari> You mean, no even-handed justice? :p
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:16 PM] <Imladris> would have a problem balancing healing too?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:22 PM] <cynicalmedic> :s
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:38 PM] <Alkari> "Don't argue with me - argue with my wife!" and points to Brienne :D
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:48 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12:D
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:56 PM] <the_Bee> Tavis managed one-handed healing
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:40:59 PM] <jemler> be kind of hard to swear fealty. aren't you supposed to but your hands in his to do that?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:41:20 PM] <cynicalmedic> I think Arya may just be a deciding factor
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:41:26 PM] <Imladris> yep poor Tavis.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:41:27 PM] <Jerusha> Can you imaging Gwynedd is the Regents had survived?

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:11 PM] <jemler> Game of Thrones
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:12 PM] <cynicalmedic> Game of Thrones
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:19 PM] <Imladris> yes, jerusha, but we were admonished not to talk politics.......
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:29 PM] <the_Bee> Ah. I don't watch the series.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:34 PM] <jemler> she's the younger daughter of Eddard Stark.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:42:47 PM] <derynifanatic64> 12Arya is a survivor
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:43:11 PM] <Alkari> The series is excellent, but you have to remember the huge adapations they need to bring things down to a 10 episode season each year
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:43:46 PM] <Kelsa> I've never seen it, but my friends recommended it to me - especially after they cancelled The Legend of the Seeker series
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:44:11 PM] <cynicalmedic> I am just glad the bboks are on Kindle -you need to be Clay Mathews to lift the darn things, otherwise
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:44:15 PM] <Alkari> Diana Rigg has a role in Season 3

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:46:10 PM] <Kelsa> No - they cancelled the Seeker show, so the authors wrote the last episode to wrap things up as best they could. That's what started me reading the books...
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:46:31 PM] <Imladris> Jerusha, did you see my comment on your imagine question?
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:46:34 PM] <Kelsa> I wanted to know what happened after that...
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:46:48 PM] <the_Bee> I finally dropped the Seeker series. It was getting too sadistic for my tastes.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:46:49 PM] <Imladris> ahh ok...

[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:55:44 PM] <DesertRose> I couldn't pick a single favorite author if my life depended on it. I could pick a top 5 or 10 or so.
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:55:56 PM] <Evie> ah well, thanks for looking
[Sunday, November 04, 2012] [07:55:58 PM] <Imladris> made me go back and reread that part of English History.
