So i've read on the internet that Jon Snow might be Rhagear and Lyanna's bastard.

How in hell could that happen?

First off, the boy doesn't look like targ at all, while rhaegar's legitimate kids looked targ even when his wife was dornish. (Aren't they all niggers anyway?)

How can you explain this?

ADWD spoiler Jon is the rightful heir to the throne. Aegon is the mummer's dragon.

Is Jon dead?

Also consider this: Catelyn kept Jon away from the main table with the royal visitors for a pretty good reason.
Let's say he dines with Robert, and Robert takes a liking to him. He takes Jon off to serve in King's Landing (away from his mean old sorta-mommy).
Something bad happens to Ned, (or god forbid Ned AND Robb) and Robert decides that he needs someone he knows wardening the North.
He legitimizes Jon (who gosh, reminds him of Ned more than little Bran or Rickon), and suddenly he's Lord of Winterfell, not Bran.

I wouldn't have had Jon at the head table either. I would've given him a good horse, sword and armor, a bag of gold and wished him godspeed, which I am sure was in Catelyn's near-future plans for him.
