I agree.  I've taken many jokes about the Order of the Pelican...like the one
where they gave a new Companion a bag of fishing weights so that she could hold

whopping 105#!

Then there was the play that was presented several years ago at Pennsic,
"Mistress Laurel Seamchecker Explains it all at You"!!
