Hey everyone my name is jesse and im from alabaster, alabama and i love all things medieval, im going to school to be a medieval historian![/img]

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

Welcome Frere Jesse, thanks for accepting my invitation. You'll find a good home here if medieval history is your thing. A lot of it laced with bizarre humor at times too.
The folks in this thread are quite knowledgeable and love to share.

Best wishes.

Frere Jesse in his finest:

Welcome, Brother Jesse!!!

(I'll be so glad when 4th quarter is over so I can get back to checking the boards on a daily basis. Playing catchup once a week is taxing!)

BTW, having grown up reading Conan, I'm slightly embarrassed to have just found out that Robert E. Howard also wrote historical fiction. About the Crusades, no less!!!   

(Obviously, the below cover portrait is of an uneducated Saracen about to be taken to school...)

Greetings & Welcome Fra Jesse

Interesting new look Frere William!   It's either a celebrating an untimely demise of a heathen Saracen, or damn....too much ketchup on that ripe, plump hotdog!!!

[Mikael of Aragon]

Frere William, did you get new Maille?

And there's never anything wrong with a little gore...

Just one of many that I will be sharing in the days to come

It's either a celebrating an untimely demise of a heathen Saracen, or damn....too much ketchup on that ripe, plump hotdog!!!

Or shaking up a ketchup bottle prior to application and discovering the lid wasn't screwed on completely!

Frere William, did you get new Maille?

Indeed my brother. We actually received several pieces awhile back. This is the flatened riveted that we just completed weathering.

That still cracks me up!

"Indeed my brother. We actually received several pieces awhile back. This is the flatened riveted that we just completed weathering."

Did you order this from the place in India? How does it rate on the authenticity-meter (i.e. did you get chausses, is the hauberk full sleeves, etc.)? I'm looking to get some new maille next year, and want to get flattened riveted maille, so am highly interested! Would also be curious about price, but we can take that conversation off board, if need be.   

And kudos for the weathering! Just from what I can see in the small avatar, it looks great! I'm extremely jealous!

brother Marcus you may have started a trend all the brothers are now gonna want a ketchup pictures too.
