One reason is: It's the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
I just posted another one out there.
1. I get an ecxuse to wear vintage leather gloves (Sherwood woo hoo)
2. I get an excuse to wear a black velvet cape
3. Where else do you get to watch men in kilts have beer for breakfast?
4. You get to meet lots of people with the same style of crazy as yourself.
5. Nice long shiny swords (need I say more?)
6. You can pass along the addiction to your kids.
7. Then there is always the opportunity to wear lots of pearls (lots and lots and lots)
8. Custom made perfume from natural oils.
9. Music that is actually music. (As opposed to most of what is on the radio these days)
10. I get to spend all day with my dear husband and do no chores.

WIN! :)
Well ok I was thinking it was a win for ME to spend all day with MY husband and have no chores. But Don Juan and Dona are a delightful couple too so I'm happy they get to do it too.
Was that carefully muddy enough for you Merlin? ;)
....off for more coffee c[_]~
Works for me! ...already finishing my first pot of coffee for the day...

No, but you don't look quite as much like an alcoholic... Usually it's a cheap blended scotch for breakfast, and a nice single malt for desert! ;D
They forgot a few important reasons. Great friends, ale (Or rum), cleavage, ale (or rum), Nunnie Nunnie, ale (or rum), Zilch the torysteller, Ale (or rum), watching mundanes, that can be the greatest fun. Oh did I mention ale or rum?
