It was a sad day for democracy , transparency and accountability in the Bahamas . Unbelievably, the new Bahamian government, under the leadership of the PLP , has decided to appoint Dame Marguerite 'the champagne lady' Pindling to the position of Deputy Governor General . Dame Marguerite Pindling is the widow of former corrupt Prime Minister , Lynden Oscar Pindling , who brought in the drug lords, like Carlos Lehder , and funneled millions of illicit funds to his own private accounts.

Tyrion is a (P)IMP

Thank you to Being a Geek for sharing. Game of Thrones is fantastic. If you haven't read the books , read them. In the world of fantasy  literature, there have been a lot of average writers, but three great writers stand as colossi . In my view, they have defined the genre: J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and the mythology it spawned. Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time and the mythology it spawned. George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and the mythology it spawned. And if you haven't seen the HBO show yet, then get on it. The show is approaching the end of Season 2. Season 1 was fantastic. Season 3 should be amazing as the show's popularity has amped up HBO's spending. It's available via HBO On Demand  or catch it on HBO on Sunday evenings. Another HBO show that is amazing is Boardwalk Empire , be sure to check that out. It's about Prohibition and features Al Capone as one of the characters.
