    I'd put money on the books not getting finished before the series is over.

    Martin will probably die soon.

    He's already told the producers how he wants the story to end. He doesn't want anyone finishing the books for him, but he's cool with it being on screen.

    Weird, but he's a quirky dude.

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

    I posted this on tRCMB, if anyone finds this helpful I may try to do this every week. If not, I'll do it this once, just trying to sum things up without giving anything away.

    Kingdom is split up and warring with each other, sort of.

    Starks - Robb headed south and is fighting the Lannisters, has won all 3 battles he has lead. Trying to get his sisters back. Bran is left at Winterfell and when he sleeps he shifts into the body of his direwolf, Summer. Catelyn gives Robb advice and pleads with him not to send Theon Greyjoy back to the Islands to broker an alliance with Balon Greyjoy. Sansa is in Kings Landing and betrothed to Joffrey, not much about her in this episode except that saving the drunk knight from Joffrey at the beginning is something to pay attention to.

    Lannisters - Jaime is still captured and meets Robb's Direwolf, Grey Wind. Cersei is scheming and showing the type of power she has in Kings Landing, I'm not sure if this was a given, but she ordered all of Roberts bastards killed, or it is assumed she did. Joffrey is maniacal and cruel, he knows he is king and has all the power to do what he wants. He tells Cersei that he knows his father slept around and thinks there are bastards out there. Cersei slapped him and some doubt is starting to cross her on whether or not her son will do as she wants, at least that is the way it looked. he warned her to never hit him again and that what she did was punishable by death. Tyrion shows up whistling all over the place and he brings Bronn, the sellsword, and the tribes from the Eyrie, so he has some protection of his own and isn't too worried about his sister. He has a letter from his Father that he is the acting Hand in Tywin's place. Tyrion will not take any shit from Cersei or Joffrey.

    Baratheon's - Renly - Calling his banners from the south, has amassed the largest army but in no rush to get to Kings Landing. Stannis - He is portrayed as he should be. Very rigid, and by the book. He will not break any rules, and I think they try to stress that when they are writing the letters that are supposed to go out. Especially when he changes Jaime's description. Stannis is respected as a military mastermind, but no one really loves him. He listens to a priestess, which is the redhead, Melisandre. She worships R'hllor They also introduce Davos, who plays an important part, usually speaks his mind and is about the only one who understands that Stannis won't punish people for being honest or giving an honest opinion.

    Targaryen - Daenarys is shown heading through a desert with a small band of what is left of her Khalasar. They show one of her baby dragons as her horse dies. She sends off 3 of her officers to see what is ahead and try to find food and water or a city.

    The Wall - Basically they show the Night's Watch trekking north of the wall, and ending up at a Wildlings house, Craster. The rules are given by Craster that none of his wives, who are mostly his daughters as well, are to be touched. Jon points out that there are no son's. Craster doesn't like Jon, and the Lord Commander takes Jon to the side and forcefully tells him he needs to listen before he can lead.

    I hope I didn't put in any spoilers past this first episode. I think I covered most of it.

    You forgot Arya.

    Arya - Currently heading North on the Kingsroad with a group of orphans/criminals bound for the Night's Watch. She's going as the "orphan boy Arry". Also with her are King Robert's bastard, Gendry the smith's apprentice and 3 "dangerous" prisoners in a wagon. They're led by Yoren, a man of the Night's Watch who was close to Benjen Stark.

    Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

    I would like to think that the money will get to good to pass up for him to get books done at set deadlines the closer the HBO series gets to catching him. You know full well that he probably knows what he wants from the last two if he doesn't go even further. I think he's just milking the amount of money he will get for the other two books.

    I think he is just getting old and tired and doesn't want to write anymore, would rather go to conventions and watch football. It's turned into a hobby for him, not a job, and he just isn't putting the time in.

    Well it is his choice. I hope that he finishes the series for his legacy and my own entertainment but he may just not care anymore and want to play golf and chill. You never know.

    What do you think?

    So far so good, developing a lot of story lines. Didn't know the show is from books (should have known better since hollywood is completely unoriginal), so I'm going to download the books and start reading them.

    Yeah having read the books beforehand makes it much easier to follow.
