the exhortation

I remember visiting this website once...
It was called Paul Levinson's Infinite Regress: Game of Thrones 6.6: The Exhortation
Here's some stuff I remembered seeing:
Game of Thrones 6.6 was at the very end - just like the high point of last week\'s 6.5 - except this time it was Daenerys astride her dragon, exhorting her Dothraki army to sail across the sea with her to reclaim her throne. Except while last week\'s ending was a great, fantastical resolution of a neat little paradoxical story, this week\'s was long overdue. Daenerys should have making that speech at least a season or two ago.
Still, it was good to see, and with it the approaching battle to end all battles, between the fire-spewing dragons and the awesome icy powers of the far north, and the various kingdoms of mostly just plain old human beings sandwiched in between.
Tonight\'s episode also had a continuation of the Shakespearean retelling of the fall of the House of Lannister we saw last week. This play within a play was a nice, unexpected touch.
As for what\'s happened with the actual Lannisters, that\'s another story, and a bit worn at this point, too. Tommen turns out to not only be a lot sweeter than his brother, but also something of a bore. His exile of his uncle-really-father serves no real purpose except getting Jaime out of town, never the best move in a narrative.
On the other hand, we finally get a good, long Samwell story in 6.6, with a look at his despicable father, decent and long-suffering mother, and a chance for Samwell to continue to stand up and act like a man, Or, almost. He sneaks away in the night rather than standing up to his father, but his taking of the Valyrian sword was a notable moment and promises some profound developments ahead.
Which is true of Game of Thrones in general, and I\'ll be looking forward to it all.

Dear Paul, I just dreamed of airships flying between raindrops. I just returned from 2042 CE, where I sold my hardcover copy of The Plot to Save Socrates for seventy million Neo-Euros, because it had your response to this e-mail from way back in 2007 scotch-taped onto the inside of the cover. A Paul Levinson collector paid top Neo-Euro, because of the authentic archaic e-mail printout from you. It turns out that not many of your e-mails from before your tenure as CEO of HBO/Cinemax and terms as United Nations Secretary General will survive that far into the future. So, please respond to this e-mail, to help found my great-grandchildren\'s fortune. My Will will stipulate that they must share with your great grandchidren. Thanks! Tom
