Charis! *tacklepounce* ?
This new layout isn't working for me. I hardly stop by at all anymore. If this is how it will be moving forward, I'll probably just come back once the show's on and post in the TV show threads or something, assuming that I like the show. I had a hard enough time being active when I could go straight to the sections that interested me, but now that I have to scroll through random threads that are all thrown together, it's like sorting through a big pile of laundry to find that one matching sock, and I just don't care enough not to just blow the sock off, wear sandals, and walk someplace else.

That's beautiful, Mother!
And yes, thank you, Rhea!
And all hail Mashi!
Finally, Woohoo! Kukaso is here, too! We should bring her "I have a son!" thread over here so that she can continue to update it.

To the new First Reasoner! May she be reasonable and logical in all things!
She was reasonable about accepting the title "First Reasoner," so I"d say she's off to a pretty good start.

As far as the books go, I can sympathize with each of the Ajah's missions; I can see how a case can be made for each Ajah being the most important one, and for that reason, if I were a real Aes Sedai, I would be a Gray. Grays are needed in order to smooth relations between the Ajahs, amplify the voices of the smaller Ajahs, and ensure that there is enough peace and stability in the world for each Ajah to pursue their passion in the interest of best serving mankind, although in my heart, I would have always longed to be a Brown, researching and recovering lost knowledge, but my duty would have been to serve as a Gray, and so that's what I would have done.
On Dragonmount, I just clicked the best with the Whites, so that's the Ajah that I chose. I also hung around the Browns a lot and the Yellows a bit, but I didn't visit the others that often, and I felt no connection to the Blue at that time (2006).
Now, I spend my time in the White and sometimes lurk in the Blue because I had a lot of fun playing some fantasy adventure games with them a year or two ago, and I read some of the Brown threads, as well. I enjoyed taking part in their book challenge a couple of years ago. I don't go to the other Ajahs that often, as I really don't spend much time on Dragonmount.

Seems reasonable. The WoT Wiki says First Reasoner, and I'm pretty sure that First Weaver is for the Yellow, but I could be mistaken.

Wassup, my Sisters? And Brothers, if Aes Sedai Guy and Jeran ever wander back through.

I guess I won.

We've followed up cold and snow in Denver with a few nice days. Sunny and a little warmer. Spring doesn't really get serious here with some nice weather until May, though. There's still plenty of cold, wet weather to be had.

Grandfather, son, and grandson enjoyed three eggs for breakfast together.

Correct again! (Are these too easy?)
LOL No, James is just good at puzzles.

I'm working on relearning the piano. I haven't played since I was a kid.

My grandmother used to make a candy called divinity each Christmas, and I always looked forward to it, but since she died, I guess I look forward to beef summer sausage each year. I always buy one for my son as a stocking stuffer, and I get myself one, too. I like slices of them on Ritz crackers with little hunks of cheddar cheese and dijon mustard.

Oh no! I'm sorry that things are going so poorly. ☹️

In before the thread is locked and eager to see any scenes that don't deviate from the book. My experience in watching shows made from books is that there will be few. Perhaps the Golden Crane will fly for Tarmon Gai'don without much turbulence, though.

Here we are with a new month, and in my country, we celebrate a holiday of gratitude this month, whereas our good neighbors celebrated the same holiday last month. Since thanksgiving is a hot topic on my continent this time of year, I thought a good question might be, "What are you thankful for?"
Right now, I am most thankful for my health.

Here! Dungeons and Dragons. I got a bit of a fix for it in the Blue Ajah this past winter, and it looked like there might be more, but alas, I think I got teased.
I haven't played canasta in ages! I haven't played cards at all in forever. I would be down for some canasta, although I'd need quite a refresher.

That's awesome! When one's not around to reach that top shelf for you, the other one can!

I'm here! I'm currently reading Bands of Mourning, my first time through it, although I have read Alloy of Law twice now.

Aaah! I didn't see this until now! He's beautiful, Lessa! I'm so happy for you.

Haha thanks! I like it a lot... thinking about getting the Szeth and Nightblood one next.
Thanks, Tress! I DO feel like destroying some evil today, so I ordered the shirt.

Here, and I'm ready for some mashed potatoes and gravy!

Awesome! I'll wait for the boards, then.
