[Ansteorra-archery] Pomp and Ceremony

[ironwyrm at juno.com]

What of us that have multiple tassels?  I like the idea of 
hanging the tassels off the poles or banners, but that's 
not what they're real purpose is.  They're suppose to hang 
from your belt's and be used to clean mud from your 
arrow points.

All this talk of white shields is going to get me motivated 
on thoughts long past and maybe better yet forgotten.

Back during a very frustrating period of time trying to get my 
devise passed, I did threaten to paint my shield white and have 
it lettered in Latin with "THIS SPACE FOR RENT" (as well as 
some choice other ideas I shall not relate here), to display that 
while time passed going through the submission process again.

Hummm, that's beginning to sound feasible once more!
