I'd be afraid he might turn into the Toxic Avenger, or something, after that... :o

Nah, only if we use the porta-johns from over by the main fire circle, about row 8.

They were kept pretty nice down on our end last year, weren't they?  Even during AHE they were never too bad.  I was actually very pleasantly surprised by them last time... for, you know... porta-privies.  ::)  :D

Of course... if you're into the pain, then by all means... wear what you like!  :D  I'm sure I can recommend someone who can provide you with an excellent flogging at the same time!  Oh, and Randolf will let you walk around wearing the chainmail until 4pm, as long as you leave your driver's license at the shop while you have it on...  ;) 

Don't the drinkers have to show their Driver's License during the day, to buy drinks at the Pubs?

Well... I guess my privy discussion was a real conversation killer!  :D  So... moving on.


I saw a couple of swords I really liked this weekend... both cutlasses.  Not battle ready, of course, but gorgeous for show blades, and one felt like it was substantial enough to hold it's edge for quite a while.  Weighted well, also, and one was short enough that it didn't feel like I was waving around a flagpole (at 5'5", my arms aren't all that long to begin with).  Awesome pirate insignia, also!  ;)  The only problem is that they were both right-handed basket hilts.  Being left-handed has it's drawbacks when it comes to things like that, I suppose...  I really like basket hilts, although more of the openwork variety, but they are generally very right hand oriented.  

Sigh... guess if I really want one I'll either have to settle for wearing it on the "wrong" side (for my comfort, anyway) or save up for a left-handed guard, which will take a while...  Or I could get a scimitar, instead.  
Even more of a curve to the blade, and a bit more in keeping with the garb I'm planning for this season, anyway.  ;)

I know at Scarby they have that sticker thing, where you show it once, get the sticker, and keep it somewhere on you all day, but I don't recall being asked all that much at TRF, actually.  I mean, I'm sure I was at some point, but I don't usually drink a great deal while I'm inside, so... who knows?

You know how many times i've been I.D. at TRF?   Is there anything less than zero?  Of course, i kinda look my age... and it's not like there are true pubs other than POW, SD & Wonky Walley's.  You get better deals at the beer stands like The Bloody Bull...

Speak for yourself, darlin'!  :P  :D  They do still ask me every once in a while... but I'm guessing it's most likely angling for a better tip!  LOL

That must be my problem...I look my age.  Of course, I have known Truly at the Sea Devil for about 22 years.  I suspect that may be why she doesn't card me, even when I ask her to.
