I was going to start this if you didn't cause I'm itching to talk about it.

RE: Theon and the Hooded Man

I think it's possible that it could be Theon seeing himself. But the one thing that doesn't past the smell test with that is the Hooded Man calls him a Kinslayer. We know that Theon didn't slay his "kin" Bran or Rickon.

So that leads me to believe the Hooded Man is either a Stark or Stark supporter. I'd throw my guess in that it could be Benjen Stark (I read somewhere that Martin debunked that he was Coldhands) since "A Stark Must Always be in Winterfell" and I think someone has entered through the crypts.

Theon doesn't know what has happened to Bran and Rickon though. He has to assume that they are roaming around the North in the dead of winter. Its a pretty logical conclusion to think they are dead. Therefore he has to think in the back of his mind that he drove them from the safety of Winterfell and ultimately killed them.

My problem with Benjen is I believe he would've went to Castle Black first. He is far too loyal to break his oaths to the nights watch and that is exactly what he did if he is in fact in Winterfell.

The crypts are certainly interesting, nobody has been to the deepest parts in hundreds of years. He also tells us that the secret to John's lineage lies there, we tend to assume that it lies with Lyanna and the probability that she is John's mother but it could also be that a stark is residing deep in the crypts. The craziest theory I have heard is that a dragon is sleeping deep beneath Winterfell and is the source of the warm water that wells up from the earth there.

Another theory that is pretty crazy to think about is the ice dragons. It is still at large as to wether or not GRRM's book "The Ice Dragon" is set in the same world as ASOIAF but I am fairly certain it is. In that case it would be interesting to see if Jon or Bran are capable of mounting/skin changing them. I firmly believe that Jon will be connected with a dragon and potentially Bran also (blood raven foreshadows that he will fly one day). We know that Bloodraven (the green seer) had the last known dragon egg in Westeros, it was white with red specs which obviously points to Jon. It was last seen near the wall, my guess is that the wall comes down seeing as Sam has the Horn of Winter. I think this will all be tied to Jon and a dragon but it will be interesting to see how it pans out.

Random thought...does LF plan on handing little Arryn to Lyn Corbray, he's a known pedophile in LF's pocket...and LF mentions giving him boys.

Ultimate csb: my so (no pics) is a hair/wardrobe intern on a movie set in New Orleans right now and Rose Leslie (Ygritte) is one of the actresses.

Anyone else think Sansa-Ramsay storyline is D&D's vehicle for revenge for the Bolton's part in the Red Wedding? I can completely see a scenario with Littlefinger outmaneuvering Roose and seizing Winterfell.
