Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for June 04, 2014

Is that a chin strap, or a jock strap?

Is one of them Rick Moranis?

They obviously didn’t get their helmets at the Ballard Medieval Accessories and Natural Foods Store. Those nice folk would have sized the helmets for free.

At least they’re practicing Safe Saxon.

@2OldHold my beer and watch this!

Stand by for more helmet jokes. I bet a few will be censored.

“Tweedledum and Tweedledee agreed to have a battleFor Tweedledum said Tweedledee had spoiled his brand new rattle…”

“I told you we should have gone for the giant Sumo costumes instead, Norman!”

One of them is plume crazy.

“There finally got it on…..okay…..ready……crap…..now I got to go pee.”

The comments are always (or almost) better than the strip!

Our SCA fighters often spend a lot on their armor. This helm online is reduced to only $1250. Armor is made to fit and many make at least part of their own.

I’m glad that my new guy is not a fighter. He can excel in making furniture and jewelry and in performing as a bard. He will be a Viking person however- using a translation of his given name.

Duct Tape boys……………

To…wetOkay the little bird can hold off on Free Bird.Rocking Robin will do just fine.Rocka-billy style.

Since they weren’t able to afford entire suits of armor, they thought the XXXXL size helmets would keep them safe, but where are their horses? Did they run away? Pehaps they’re invisible…like the one King Arthur rode in the Monty Python film…Or, maybe they prefer riding Segways…Or bikes? …there are plenty of other low-budget options, I’m sure…

@ BevIf you get a chance to come by this evening…Sorry I missed you when you checked in on Bri-No-Mite’s B-day!This computer wouldn’t let me connect to the internet again until this afternoon….

@Pcolli, Language is not much valued in SCA unless one is declaming or singing. I know we will be able to excel in other pursuits such as brewing and the other crafts we do individually; the brewing is one thing that we can better do jointly. I have to scout around for friends who give parties a lot for some empty champagne bottles to do mead and sparkling wines. (I always like to reuse when possible). In the meantime we may do some dark beer, which he has taught me to like.

Those aren’t helmets, they are space heaters!I think they are joust ridiculous.

Hi DAZZ. You and your man seemed to be well-suited to each other. :-)

Hi Ballard Dears!

Crusader Rabbit was the first cartoon made for television. Everything before was made for theatrical release first.

Jousting is no jesting matter.

Good night HAPPY and all my BALLARD DEARS.

Way to go, Susan Sunshine!
