    The Wheel of Time (Amazon)

    Believe it or not, the kid (Barney Harris) who’s played Mat up until now has killed it, really expressing the essence of Mat in the books. And Mat’s arc is fairly significant… by the end of the series he will end up being amazingly important. This is just 100% personal conjecture, but I read...

    The Wheel of Time (Amazon)

    Ya… they’re trying to distill a book series with literally hundreds of significant, pivotal roles down to a handful. And each of those roles has a lot going on… I’ll be honest with you, I’m really enjoying the “getting to know” process with the characters. The back stories they’ve built for a...

    The Wheel of Time (Amazon)

    That cold open on episode 7 was… pretty bad ***. Far Dareis Mei… yep, one Aeil woman taking on 6 dudes, and it takes a labor pain that she can’t overcome to actually end up getting wounded. Bad. ***.

    2021-2022 College Football Board (Utes, Cougars, and Aggies)

    Let’s all remember that this is Cam’s first year actually playing college football. He’s great, but he still has things to improve and learn. Super excited for the next two years though, regardless of how the Rose Bowl ends up.

    Kind of a little bit of both. And WTF, Matt? That was just… weird.

    The three oaths are (as copied from a Wiki): To speak no word that is not true To make no weapon with which one man may kill another Never to use the One Power as a weapon except against Darkfriends or Shadowspawn, or in the last extreme defense of her life, the life of her Warder, or another...

    2021-2022 College Football Board (Utes, Cougars, and Aggies)

    I HOPE Utah wins. I think it’s far from assumption level though. Ohio State is a great team and it will be a tough game for Utah, even if Ohio State has a bunch of players not playing and a bad attitude because they “only made the Rose Bowl”.

    The *OFFICIAL* Russia Is About To Invade Ukraine Thread

    Hear me out (since you heard fish out). Protecting our allies is one thing. Being the world's police force is another. Ukraine is weak - but why? They have people, they have resources. Why aren't they stronger militarily, especially with a neighbor like Russia? Taiwan... well, that's just...

    How about the Aggies? So great that they won the MWC! What a great football year for the State of Utah!

    The Wheel of Time (Amazon)

    Well, Episode 5 was a bit of a bummer, what with funerals and all. But the Perrin thing starting to come to fruition is kinda cool. Hearing Episode 6 is going to be a barn burner. So 5 was probably a big setup episode.

    Sci-Fi and Fantasy Books

    Just out of curiosity did you ever finish it? You quit at the end of the “slog”… are you watching the TV series?

    Coronavirus

    Omicron is the real deal. Less than 2 weeks after it was first detected in South Africa, and it is now the dominant strain accounting for 76% of cases sequenced there. (Less than 1% of cases get sequenced.) So… it looks like it will overtake Delta fairly quickly as the dominant strain. Here’s...

    The Wheel of Time (Amazon)

    Most viewed Amazon series premiere of the year. I recall seeing something about how numbers were very high on continued watching, episode to episode. Amazon says it is trending way above expectations, and expectations were already high to begin with.
