Any body have an update from Micheal? His last post was on the 5th and he said he was having some health problems.

I ran the live chess at Gulf War for years. It was wildly popular with the fans, yes I said fand cause people CHEERED!!! They chose favorites and cheered and booed and really got into it. The folks that had to figh in it HATED it. It was ran at night so it didn't conflict and what that ment was that...

Get a good ankle brace (mac David makes a good one for cheep) and a solid set of insoles with arch support and a heel cup. It will make all the difference in the world. wear whatever you are comfortable with that you can fit those two things into. I'll see if I can find you a link to the brace I wear.

Ceddie

I'd be in for a pair if the fit is right.

Ceddie

I'm in for one

...I don't understand why something that was such a part of people's life gets so overlooked in our portrayals. A while back the medieval living history crowd in Europe went overboard on (period) rosaries and you couldn't look at a group of costumed participants without spotting a set of beads or t...

Ceddie

you might want to give a look here (to start) m Devotional beads came in many styles and sizes. You can do a lot more than the basic 10 or 50. By the By, looking very nice. I have carried a set I was given at my Knighting since the day I got them, I don't understand why something that was such a par...

I hope to be in stock within a few days. As many of you know I am a high school principal. Making vervelles is a sideline for me. To make matters worse I am also working on my doctorate at the same time. The school year has just ended and I found myself in my workshop today pouring bronze for the f...

bump.

I have delt with them a few times. I say 5 out of 5 every time.
Great people and a great product.

I have fought in my Revival low boots as well as turn shoe from turnshoe.uk as a couple pair I have made. Of them all, I like mine the most. they were made from about 2 oz veg tan and it was like fighting barefoot (I've done htat too and I like it a lot) the thing to remember is to keep you weight O...

We play with full leg targeting in the back yord some. *** note*** GET GREAVES getting hit in the meat on the outside of the calf sucks but it isn't unsafe. I think it could work if folks would give it a try. The one thing that scares me is the golf swings with the poles or great swords going at the...

Nothing prohibits someone from establishing a PO Box or arrangement with buddies to have their membership form list an address in a neighboring state, or using their work address, or anything of that sort. Of course, then your mailings would go there and you'd have to deal with that. I have heard o...

COOL!!!!

Ceddie

That is not "reasonable" or an "attempt"

No, you cannot site "Conan" as documentation, it is a comic book.

yeah, I'm a geek but I'm a great big, meat eating geek with a stick, next question.

All of the following are roughly translated by my squires to mean," Oh no, not again."

OK. I have a plan.
watch this.
follow me.
hold my beer.

Ceddie

It's not a "dragon" it's a car, get out of the road! If I give you a dollar, will you fight for them? Yes, it hurts. Every damn time I get hit with a stick and yes it is worth it. If you don't think my (insert piece of armor here FINGER GAUNTLETS, AVENTAIL, ETC.) don't wear it! It's ok, I signed the...

Ceddie

It really depends on my range and foot placement, I am either going to step out and fire into the path of the arm ( or where I thing the arm should be) or I am going to step in and tward the sword shoulder and fire at whatever target looks like I have the best chance of hitting. I really don't care ...

There were 17 folks in the double elim. list, every fight was best two out of three. The final three were Count Matrin, Duke Odo and Sir Kurn, Martin beat Kurn in three in the final.

After the final fight, Martin asked Islay to marry him.

Ceddie

I was the MiC, what would you like to know?

Ceddie

why not? I'd need to see the fit but it looks good so far.

Ceddie

You want to talk about attitudes and frustrating? I have had a promising mid level fighter commit to hardcore pel work and slow work and drill. For about 8 weeks I have seen REAL dedication and improvement from said fighter. In ONE practice, a senior fighter beat them so bad mentally and physically ...

why so thick?

If you want your rattan to last longer...

aim for the soft spots!

I sent the link to a friend, I hope it sells!

That is a mighty powerfull tool to give the marshal. Basicly what you are saying is the marshal has the power to pass or fail what they want when they want and all they have to do is say, "I think it's unsafe." No. It is the marshal's job to enforce the rules as they are written. If they don't like...

Advise the squire to carry a copy of the rules and highlight B. Shields: 1. Shields shall be edged with leather or other padding, or constructed in such a way as to minimize the damage to rattan weapons or other fighters. 2. No bolts, wires, or other objects may project more than 3/8 inch (9 mm) fr...

I wish I could be in two places at once my friend. I'll see you soon.
