Wait, homelier = 1?  Guess I misunderstanding the meaning of the term. I think she's pretty cute & she has a girl next door look. Which is what I thought homely look meant.

Homely, for a person, means ugly.  I think it originally was a compliment like how unpretentious she is as opposed to the vain women who paint their faces and wear scandulous clothes but puritan chic is just not what it once was.

Tell GRRM to stop naming everyone with the same sounding names.
:huh: GRRM's writing has many faults, but similar-sounding character names are not one of them.
Yeah, I quite liked the multiple Roberts actually, fit in well with the medievalesque setting.
And he doesn't do it anywhere near as much as history...

Almost as fun as all the Walders, Waldrens and Waldas.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

The book has been written.

The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Apologies, I missed the posts where it was mentioned.  I didn't realize that many posts had been added since I last saw the thread.  I saw only the few before mine discussing other topics.

That could be pretty great actually......

Says the guy who can't be bothered to look up something he forgot.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
