Hi all:

What a weird Intro... I just put myself on the list and I have an 
interesting find in the SCA armorial so I thought I'd share it with you 
all.... I'm doing a bit of research for devices and was looking up people 
in the armorial and ran across this tidbit.  I personally know Lady Myfanwy 
and she doesn't have access to this  armorial except as viewer.  Who did 
this do you think?

Regards,

CR St. John

    * Call me The Bit. I edit a rag here in the City of Arms. There are a 
hundred stories a month on this beat, and I get 'em all, thanks to an 
arrangement I have with The Slug.

    * I figured I'd slip the name in between two other Myfanwys where no 
one would read it. There was armory, too, but The Slug never sends pix. I 
had to reconstruct it from her blazon. When I did, I let out a low whistle. 
Nothing sells papers like knotty arms...
