[Ansteorra] Fw: Group status changes

[Sher M]

 We stopped at a convience store in Houston close to where Coronation was
 being held.  There were 3 Asian males in the store.  Not one of them even
 blinked when a tall, large woman with a gold mesh veil on her head,
 sunglasses, long sleeved blue dress with a velvet overdress came in and got
 3 bottles of iced tea.

 If I'm in a hurry I just say I'm in a play.  If I have time I explain a
 little bit.  Mostly it is younger people who look at me like I've lost my
 mind.  People my age just look and go about their business.  But then I'm
 not in armor, carrying a sword, dagger, etc... at least not that is highly
 visable.
