    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Ned has a reputation of being honorable to a fault. Ned is also Roberts right-hand man and extremely loyal to him. It is entirely plausible for the Kingsguard there to assume Ned intended to turn Lyanna and child over to Robert and Robert most assuredly would kill the child, maybe even Lyanna...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah, but Robert would definitely kill the baby and as far as the Kingsguard knew Ned would turn over the baby to him.

    I don't watch the next episode trailers. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to hit the "I am completely neutral about your post. I am neither happy nor displeased that you made it.." or the "Fuck You!" button.

    If the cord wasn't there it's not like he couldn't have tripped over his own feet instead. Not exactly an integral part of the plan if the dive was supposed to be staged.

    During the day time, one week I have our daughter, one week my wife has the daughter due to her work schedule. My daughter latches onto whichever parent has her that particular week. So on the weeks I have her even when I get her home to Mom she wants (almost) nothing to do with her.

    It will all come back around when you get to send them on errands like sending them to the store to buy some ground beef and having them come back with cube steak and then you get to laugh at them for not knowing the difference between ground beef and cube steak the rest of their lives.

    Honda Care needs to be purchased within the first 6,000 miles, but you are correct in that there are other warranty products you can purchase down the road.

    My inspector told me my 20 year old furnace had a 15 year lifespan, but I've been keeping it going by replacing parts and what not. Blower motor shouldn't be that hard. Wonder how much more energy-efficient new ones are, might not be worth the cost of repairs even if doing it yourself.

    Costco sometimes has great deals on sheds that include assembly/installation. When I was mathing it out, for everything that was included it was ~$300-$500 above material costs, depending on the size of the shed, to have them install vs. building myself. On the gravel, I hear you, but I have...

    It's actually a 16.9oz bottle fwiw. Depends on where you are and what taxes are applied obviously but up here in the PNW $8.50ish for a 22oz of good DIPA is pretty standard.

    I'm not sure the "body heat" generated actually translates to your core temperature. You feel warmer because your blood vessels dialate, especially the capillaries near the skin, but you lose body heat much more easily leading to a drop in core temperature.

    No, there are definitely calories in beer/wine that don't come from alcohol which would be stored normally. For beer, not as many as you'd think though (depending on style), when you see the 300 number kicked around the bulk of that is counting the alcohol. An IPA won't have that many more...

    Alcohol cannot be stored by the body and only the liver can metabolize alcohol. Initially the body will convert alcohol into an energy conserving compound called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which basically is the round about way for your body to store alcohol calories. However, once you get...
