I really enjoyed book one. The premise, the characters, the strategy, etc. I made it through book two. I'm now about 1/3 through book three and starting to doubt continuing. This is partially my fault, I think. I kind of expected a leap in time between books to some pivotal points in safehold's history where Nimu nudged things, culminating in a scifi battle with the big bads... but it appears the series is going slog through every minor skirmish, diplomatic exchange, dinner party, and wedding. I'm not sure I can tough it out.

During the 6/1 episode there was a minor accident between a black VW Touareg and another vehicle. Officers respond and start investigating. It appears that:

  1. officer knows the VW driver (asks her "have you called Mike")
  2. VW driver's story doesn't seem to match the witness story
  3. officer says to supervisor on scene "do you know who that is", implying the Touareg driver is someone known to the PD

Episode then cuts away, and it is never mentioned again. So, Pasco viewers, what was up with that? Who was the driver? Why no updates?

My mom was awesome. Unfortunately, she passed away a few years ago (no tears please) but she did a great job raising us and had a great sense of humor. She had one major flaw, however. Whenever we asked for something cool, she would try to deliver but it always be a few pegs below what we were looking for. Ask for a McDonald's Cheeseburger? You would probably get an Arby's Roast Beef sandwich. Ask for a Han Solo action figure? You could end up with a Space Fights Sam Alone with Laser Sword action. Since her name was Blanche, we called this "Getting Blanched". Therefore, in her honor:

#Blanche a Song Examples would be:
Fuck The Police by Bing Crosby
Joy to the World by Leonard C

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

Home computing stuff: e-mail, MS Office, web, Quicken, etc. Gaming... a lot: Civ5, Borderlands1/2, Pillars of Eternity, a lot of strategy type games. Generally no MMOs. I do not frequently play "AAA" titles, but occasionally I will fire up FarCry4 or want to play the latest Battlefield or something and would rather it not suck. Low-end development: I use Oracle Virtual Box to sometimes run 3-5 virtual machines (linux or windows) that I use for simple development or testing purposes. Nothing too high-end, but I will occasionally have multiple VMs compiling
