I pulled out 28A Land in “Game of Thrones”: WESTEROS because I didn’t know this answer. Rather, Calah contributed it. It would have taken me a lot longer to get the piano to play if I had had to go it alone. In like a week and a half we’ll be married, and then I’ll have unlimited access to a Game of Thrones buff. Or she’ll finally get me to watch it. Either option is fine.
Today’s theme was a little shady.
