HBO is doing an adaptation of George R. R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series and has chosen a conlanger to create a language for it.
Here is an interview with the language creator.
Here's the Creator's Website.
''We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat
them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.''

-- James Nicoll

I took the hint in a thread title and made a new discussion area under the Walk for DWI.  This doesn't mean it's an active project yet, just that since folks want to talk about it some, it might as well have a home here.

This is way too freaking cool. Someone or someones created a Python script that takes any given song and stretches and shrinks the beats in such a way that it comes out as if it had been played to a swing beat. http://gizmodo.com/5547876/a-python-cod ... song-swing]Examples and links are available at Gizmodo.

This area is for the questions, comments and discussion regarding Drunkard's Walk I: A Horse Ain't A Horse, Of Course, Of Course, as well as wild speculation, song lyrics, and other such fun.  While this project is, for the first time since the 1990s, "alive", it is not currently in production.

a while ago there were links to big dog.
It looks like they now have a little dog as well.

I want one. I don't know what for, but I want one.

or “Why Mal shouldn't read Turtledove novels at three in the morning.”

So... yeah. This is something I'm writing just to try and exorcise the idea from my head & get back to more productive Fenspace stuff. Comment at will, 'cause this one's going to be a bit strange. --Mal

It may be that Skuld's renowned prudishness is more than a bit hypocritical.  Evidence:  when, in the manga, Peorth asked Keiichi on a date, she studied up on dating practices by reading manga.  At one point, it's noted that she's also been reading "those naughty comics, too..." and was fantasizing about K1 taking her to a love hotel.  ("And then ... the night catches fire at a hotel très élégant!" -- with an Imagine Spot of them embracing nude ... or at least topless.)  Then, when Peorth leaves, Skuld discovers that somebody's swiped her manga collection.  Now, this doesn't mean for sure that those "naughty" manga Peorth read were part of Skuld's collection -- but it does support the possibility.

Big Brother is watching you.  And damn, you are so bloody BORING.

Sunday night, a young Spider trooper named Alexander Wolfe, while engaging on a retrieval mission for materiel for his superiors, stumbled across an advance scouting party of Clockwork from the Praetorian Earth. These Clockwork could only be using the warehouse in Port Oakes as a base of operations to investigate the Rogue Isles for sympathetic groups. Acting quickly, Wolfe contacted a number of other Arachnos operatives, and they removed the threat to Arachnos security and retrieved the assets. As a young and inexperienced Spider trooper, Wolfe was only able to take one acceptable image of the invaders, but he was assured that his fellow operatives managed to get photographic evidence as well. Reports have been made to Arachnos superiors and flagged as high priority. This initial foray by the enemy cannot be the last that Lord Recluse's forces see of the mechanized threat.
