Whoa Mickey...I am glad to hear you're okay. What a horrible thing to happen. I had a nasty accident with my mini van back in 2007, so I know what it's like. At first it's very surreal...until you see the damage up close. Though I do not make it a habit, I can tell you if your 'frame' is bent...it is likely they will total the car. But more important...you are okay...your wife has you at home tonight...safe and sound. It really didn't hit me (what could have truly happened to me) until I went to clean out my car at the impound lot. I stood looking at what was left of my Dodge mini-van and broke down and cried for about 1/2 hour. I walked away with a bruised elbow and knee. VERY blessed indeed. Oh, and if you're wondering what I hit...I hit a BMW convertible. Yes, if you're going to do it...DO IT BIG! I'm Happy that you doing okay.

Spam?! I guess burying it is better than eating it...I don't care for it meself!

Here are a few costume elements I thought I would try to work with... I love these! And I thought this jacket would accent a hint of Military or of Mercenary elements

Now there's a thought! I'll pitch in and purchase those shiney streamers for the handles and a horn to boot!

Gee Patrick, Just like a guy...you wave something mechanically cool in front of them and they forget what they were doing. Was it something to do with PVC material? If it's about my age...never mind.

Where did they start and why do we do the things we do for the passing of a love one? Most of our modern day practices started at the end of the 17th Century. First, there is the "Undertaker". The name itself pretty much says it all. This man would 'under take' all tasks associated with preparing the dearly departed for his final send off. Everything from working with the parish to making sure the family and servants were dressed properly. Items such as mourning rings were worn to remember one's own mortality, not just for remembering the loss of a loved one.

Relieved. I now know why I was having back problems…I left work yesterday and went to my GP. She informed me that I have a pinched nerve in my lower back not only causing a constant dull pain, but it is also the cause of why the top of my left leg was going numb. She has now instructed me to visit a physical fitness expert to help resolve this problem. Great! I can lose weight at the same time.

Oh how sweet, M.A.d'Dogge. He's sooo cute. L.A.B....so, has his eyes open yet? Congrats and the new addition to your loving family!

A very happy birthday to you, Iron John!

Thank you Ransom...you are too kind!

Now this is a GOOD drink....but I've been known to add a bit of "HARD" cider to the mix instead. Still as good and has a bit of a kick to it.

Good Lord, SutlerJohn. If you wish for foregivenes, send for a holy man! As for your belated welcome, you are amongst many a friend here.

Well...Finally put the "Pink Confection" Victorian Walking Gown up for sale on eBay! Pink Victorian Walking Gown

Bumping this for those who need 'em!

Bump!

Here are a few links to several Mid-17th Century Wigs that I am selling. Great for those who do English Civil War and early GAoP. Mid-17th Lady's Wig - English Civil War and here is a court style that was popular during the same time. Mid-17th Century Lady's Court Style Wig

Great Find Mickey! From the description, these gowns would have been worn for distant relatives....such as a cousin or Uncle...and would be considered half mourning (morning) out of respect of their relations.

So...who wants to start this Bad Boy up?! Setting/Time?

Hmm....sounds interesting. There are a few characters I'd like to start using...new faces and all... And perhaps I'll see if I can't get a hold of Reggie...or should I say..."his ghost".
