    We're doing Quebec (mostly Montreal) for ours, though for March that might not be ideal.

     

    I did a Spring Break in Montreal in March. It's cold but it's still a great city. And Quebec City is basically a European city so that's a neat experience over here.

    A whole bunch? I would bet it was less than 1%.

    "How likely is it that people in the federal government either assisted in the 9/11 attacks or took no action to stop the attacks because they wanted the United States to go to war in the Middle East?" the poll asked.

    A full 22.6% of Democrats said it was "very likely." Another 28.2% called it "somewhat likely."

    That is: More than half of Democrats, according to a neutral survey, said they believed Bush was complicit in the 9/11 terror attacks.

    Europe. Seems like you've done a lot of cruises and thus, I presume lots of tropical type places (although obviously there are cruises in Europe as well)...Europe would be a good change of pace and a new type of adventure. Whether it is going to more rural wine country areas, etc. You could still get your beach fix as well (depending on where you visited in Europe).

     

    We just spent 3 weeks in Europe last summer for ours. Great choice. Favorite places were Tuscany, Antibes (French Riviera) and Iceland. All are great places if you want to avoid sight seeing destinations like Rome/Paris/London etc...

    Serious question now that Trump is the nominee. Who are you fellow Republicans planning to support in the GE? Are you writing in candidates?

     

    I live in NY so probably Gary Johnson. If I lived in a state where my vote mattered I'd probably suck it despite how much I hate her and vote for Hillary

    I have to believe in Kalapses theory on them being in on it, however, there is too much "good things" happening for Game of Thrones for me to feel comfortable.

     

    It's definitely plausible but I'm also hung up on him giving up his direwolf. I just can't see that being a sacrifice they would make.

    I maybe the only one that watches "The Last Man on Earth". They continue to do twists and turns that make me keep watching.

     

    I watch it and find it enjoyable.

    KC Chiefs with yet another solid draft. I'm stoked about Chris Jones because he's going to be a force inside for years to come.

    The only pick I didn't like was late in the draft they took a returner that is a piece of s***. Beat his pregnant girlfriend awhile back. That's not a good look for the team considering they just had a player in 2012 kill his girfriend and himself. Other than that nonsense, it was a good draft.

     

    This team is absolutely loaded on defense. Going to need it because Smith won't win us s***. Going to have to pull a Denver this year.

     

    I liked the draft too. Jones under Andy Reid could become a stud and the corners they got I think can contribute day 1. I especially loved the Russell pick. He would have been a much higher pick if he didn't have the off field concerns.

     

    As for the returner, I'm over it. 20 teams went to his workout so it's not like they are all holier than thou. If the Chiefs didn't pick him he'd be on someone else's roster right now. It's a business. I want the Chiefs to win. I'd prefer if they won by being the most respected team in the league, but I'll settle for them winning. He's getting a second chance, but if he has even the slightest transgression just cut him.

    I challenge you to find Whitlock's columns on the Missouri situation. He is an incredible writer about race.

     

    Whitlock is horrible. He's a horrible journalist. He's a horrible sports personality. All he does is complain and race bait in everything he covers.

    I'd love every single Buckeye with the exception of Tyvis Powell and Cardale Jones.

     

    Von Bell and Eli Apple would be great fits for the Bears but they wont be available by the time they go for their second pick.

     

    I'm really hoping Eli Apple is there for the Chiefs pick at 28.

     

    If he's gone hopefully the Chiefs can get Will Jackson III or one of the WRs there (other than Fuller)

    I didn't get a chance to watch the West Brom-Spurs game. What happened? I saw Spurs went ahead on a own goal and kind of expected them to roll WBA.

     

    I might actually wake up at 8 to watch the Leicester game on Sunday.

     

    Tottenham hit the post 4 times. WBA scored on a corner against the run of play around the 70th. Tottenham looked stunned and never really had another chance the rest of the game.

    The stark kids were warging into animals out of sight and I believe Jon did as well. I know Bran was doing it when they were traveling north IIRC.

     

     

    QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Apr 25, 2016 -> 09:48 AM)
    I recall various book Starks in the book warging into their direwolves while they were asleep. They initially thought they were dreaming. So I don't think there's any hard and fast rule about visibility.

     

    That may be. But remember, Bran is a greenseer so he's not just a standard warg. And I always separated the green dreams from actual warging. Hopefully we'll find out next week.

  12. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 25, 2016 -> 09:12 AM)
    I liked the subtle "does the wolf know you" comment, because we know the Direwolf is actually Jon Snow since he warged into it as he was dying. I assume Missandei is going to sacrifice herself to resurrect him at some point.

     

    If Ghost was locked up and out of sight I'm not sure how that could have happened. I thought warging only happened when you could see the object you were warging into (green dreams not withstanding)

    Oh my God stop with the Kasich stuff please. He's such a horrific candidate he's being funded by the left to try and win the nomination.

     

    It's funny to me when a Trump supporter calls another candidate horrific.

    In the general election, I am almost certainly voting Libertarian.

     

    I most likely am too. I actually align pretty well with the part ideology anyways, but I also can't see myself voting for Trump (or Cruz) or Hillary. And I live in NY, so it's going blue regardless.

  14. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 25, 2016 -> 08:56 AM)
    I heard my first campaign commercial here in Indiana. It pretty much said that if you don't like Trump, don't waste a vote for Kasich, because he has no chance to win, and to vote for Cruz.

     

    Boy, if that isn't a resounding pile of pathetic, I don't know what is. I shouldn't vote for a guy because of who he is, I should vote for a guy because of who he isn't. This is the damned Presidential race, and I should be picking a guy for no other reason, than who he isn't? Boy, great standards there.

     

    Well, the steaming pile of crap candidates for both parties this year have basically made that the case unfortunately. It's basically who do you despise the least?
