Generally speaking, I am not a fan of popular culture, but on occasion I am pleasantly surprised by it. And on even more rare occasions, it shocks me. Not in a bad way, but in the way that you are shocked when you experience a true windfall.
That is how I feel about A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones. The books AND the TV show that they inspired.
There are too many random photos on my phone. So I’m inflicting them on you, internets.
Yes, this is the kind of random stuff I take photos of with my phone. You’re welcome.

So you get this.
here is the definitive proof.
I had not seen this before, so if you have, sorry. But when Dinklage won his Emmy two years ago for his role as Tyrion Lannister in Game of Thrones, among the people he thanked was the woman who takes care of his dog. How classy and made of awesome is that?

HRC summarizes reasonably well what we’re waiting for when Godot The Supreme Court comes down with their ruling on Prop 8 and on DOMA. Check it out and share it (below the cut). Everyone needs to understand that this is about Civil Rights, not The Homosexual Agenda.
How today’s announcement by NBA player Jason Collins will affect the general atmosphere around the ruling is unclear. He came out and admitted that he is gay. He’s the first pro sports player in one of the four major sports (MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL) to do this while still playing.

It’s been a little over a week since downtown blew up and everything went to hell, but since then Boston Strong has become the catchphrase for how we’ve all held up. The whole tough New Englander attitude, some would say “crusty”, is well known. We’re tough people and down through generations we’ve been through a lot.
I have no idea who it was who coined the phrase. I hope it wasn’t some marketing VP somewhere who’s made a mint from it. It has helped, and it has spawned Watertown Strong and Collier Strong, on their own indications of what we’ve been through separately and together and how we’ll persevere.
Check out some of the images, below the cut, that have come up in the last week plus that I’ve liked the best or that I think are the funniest representation of Boston Strong.
While both Geoff and I have spent a ton of time at work lately (this is my first day off in 11 days I think) I’m in the middle of a fascinating book and I’ve been emailed some really fascinating blog links. Now it’s my turn to share them with you.
At all.

The internet really doesn’t have enough cats yet. And since we already have videos of cats doing all sorts of things, it was only a matter of time until someone made a video of cats (or kittehs, if you will) fighting with lightsabers.
This is our 500th post here at KellyandGeoff.com. Geoff and I were wondering what to write. Perhaps we should observe the occasion with something special?
Then we came across these links and realized that we had to share them with the world. Sometimes, you just have to go with what finds you. Thank you, internet.
