the newest thing that Liam finds hilarious: the garlic chopperi have a weird kid...

Some more thoughts during the Great Wheel of Time Binge of 2013:- In all fairness to Mr. Jordan, the series *did* start improving before Sanderson took over. The second half of the Knife of Dreams (book 11) showed the spark of classic Wheel of Time.- If I never read/hear the phrase "insufferable woman" again, it'll be too soon.

did you ever have one of those meetings at work where you slowly realized "wow, i'm going to be pulling 12-hour days for the next month or so"? yeah... today was that kind of day
