A great mystery of this election solved

[ellid]

The Wasilla, Alaska, Wal-Mart reportedly sells more duct tape than any other Wal-Mart in the state. I had a funny feeling I knew why...

And I may be right. There's an SCA Barony in the vicinity.

*waits for the media to find out and descend upon fighter practice*

Freaking the mundanes, freaking the mundanes....

I'm not sure I *want* Bill O'Reilly coming near an SCA barony. He'd probably make it out that we were Evil Whackos Out to Control the World with our duct tape swords.

...we're not?

Darn.

I hope they're more active than my local one...

Which group do you mean, Whyte Whey or Ostgardr? Ostgardr's pretty active from what I hear....

I went looking at the SCA website and found the Canton of Brokenbridge? Or am I looking in the wrong place?

Oh, you're in Brooklyn...I'm not sure what's going on there, but I know that Whyte Whey (Manhattan) and Ostgardr (NYC in general) are thriving. I'd get in touch with the seneschal for Ostgardr and start there.

Where I live that would have something to do with sheep...

I was wondering if Palin had ever seen it...then figure she would have found a way to ban it, if she had...

It's like the hilarious Dragonspire story I read about an event that was held at a Christian retreat camp *during* a retreat on Satanism...and one of the good Christian folk who attended thought the SCAdians were a living exhibit on the evils of ungodliness!

Well, there were a lot of Thor's hammers on personal display in my barony when I was going to events twenty years ago. We are only poor Norsemen and Celts, as the song goes.
