Read | This past Sunday’s episode, titled “The Old Gods and the New,” on The Game of Thrones is probably the best in Season 2 to date.  I love how it focused on the inner turmoil of many characters’ firm grip over their new roles when everything around them are all getting out of control.  Ser Rodrik Cassel’s brutal death was the saddest and most traumatic moment of the show.  With that said, I have a full-on hatred of Theon now. Osha should have killed him in his sleep, but we know George RR Martin likes to keep his tragic character alive.  Other than that, Jon Snow should really learn to put on his hat/hood (it’s not like he doesn’t have one).  Someone like Ygritte should tell this guy that you can lose about 10% of your body heat through the head alone.  Maisie Williams who plays Arya Stark has been so impressive so far.  The scene involving Tywin, Littlefinger, and Arya was so heart-trembling and intense.  Though for someone as sly as Littlefinger, I just can’t believe that he didn’t recognize her.  And where in the world is Jorah Mormont when Dany really needed him?  I really missed that beautiful voice and sexy face of his.   Also, Maureen Ryan’s recap from the Huffingtonpost was one of the best I’ve read.  Her commentary on the inner struggles of the show’s core characters was so right on. I wish I episode 7 would come on right now so I can cuddle with Jon Snow.

Alone with my thoughts is a dangerous idea.

“The Republican primary race is all but over and it’s looking like Mitt Romney will be at the top of the ticket. He’s Herman Cain, without the charisma. He’s Michele Bachmann, without the crazy eyes. He’s Rick Perry, without the childlike fascination with maple syrup. He is anything you want him to be, so long as you don’t want him to be anything. He is…the Least Interesting Man in the World.” - Miles Leicher
