What??????? Why have you never watched it? :O

No, I've only read the books. Which came out first, as you'd expect.

I've watched the first episode, I don't think I'm missing out. Don't get me wrong, it's done very well, the T.V. show, I mean. But when you've read the books, which are infinitely better, the show is dull and overall not very interesting. Sorry if that sounds sort of stuck up, but it's just what I think.

Yeah fair enough it's a matter of opinion.

I would, actually, I'd recommend the whole "A song of ice and fire" series.

I've never seen or read the Games of Thrones stuff. Don't plan to either.









I'm sorry.

We've got nothing else to do we're all hermits living in a vow of silence in a hole in the desert, we have a pledge of silence and voice our thoughts through boards.ie, our only food source is a nearby juniper bush and Brian is not the messiah he hurt my foot!



Please tell me somebody got this :rolleyes:

Just finished reading "The Interrogator", it took me three days to read 369 pages. I'm going to rent out the 2nd and 3rd Hunger Games books and try read both in six days (three days each) . I hope you gals and guys are having as much fun as I am!

I'm finally getting round to Steve Jobs, got the book last year but thanks to the JC didn't get round to getting past page 5.

Cr4pSnip3r

I remember reading that Steve Jobs book. I don't recall anything from it, I sort of stumbled through, quite bored the whole time.

I'm finally going to dinner with my family tomorrow to celebrate the end of the JC!

Reading a Game of thrones first book of A Song of Ice and Fire, after watching all of the episodes on the internet, at 70 pages in I'm really surprised how well the TV series stuck to the book, almost everything a character says in the book shows up in the TV series.

It would be so horribly unfortunate if the 'Royal baby' is born on my birthday :mad:

Happy birthday mate! I think the baby is either already born or is due for tomorrow.

I think it was born this morning -a boy and the first to be third in line to the throne since the Victorian era.
