I'd just like to give thanks in public to the people who are making *Sunday
Target Abuse and Bloodletting* so much fun.

Kathy, Dante, Tomasso, William, CJ, and Chris consistently provide us with a
bounty of Brainless Unmoving Two-dimensional  Trimaran Simulators to shoot
at.  If you have any device that can lob an arrow at the BUTTS or a regular
Trimaran you seriously need to come out.  There were 18 folks arching today
with several folks in the gallery cheering on the simulated gore.  Simulated
Death to Trimaris!

On the rapier side, thanks to Don Ceallach for hosting a great practice- we
had six fencers in armor and a few spectators begging for more blood.  If a
pub brawl, street fight, or theater altercation breaks out at Gulf War... we
will be READY!

Leather Workers Local 484 did some work at the picnic tables, there was a
short bardic performance, Sir Connor taught an impromptu class on proper
rapier smithing techniques and best practices, and the first meeting of the
Lords Interested in Angling Responsibly & Safely met with much discussion of
the sizes and types of fish that have been caught in Bryn Gwlad waters by
the sundry members.  There was even some costuming help by Lord Yves on
choosing the right clothing for one's form.  Kings College, eat your heart
out.

28 people at practice total today!

FYI this practice is fairly far north- at the YMCA in Cedar Park- and if
ever a Hellsgater wished to come play with us for a day we'd LOVE to host
you.  Tell us you intend to be down and we'll make sure to roll out the red
carpet and stab you like a Trimaran for a few hours.

This practice is really starting to take off and get big, people.  If you
want an extra place to work on your projects, chit chat, fence, arch, fish,
fight, watch, make, or do... this is for you.

See you all there!

Sir Dieterich
