warning this post has severe language against several targets
It has been a long time, and I want to say some things. The first of which is a complaint against the University of Louisville. The cost keeps going up and I feel I am going nowhere. It is really stupid to put security guards on several thousand dollar machines, rather than give the stupid, fat, incompetent fuckoffs that they call security guards. The assholes choose to level a large amount of student parking and build in its place a five, not ten or twenty, but five story building for housing, meanwhile the other housing buildings are falling apart, then they have the audacity to claim that there is enough housing for everybody... oh and enough parking as well. And lets have a meeting with president Ramsey, at 8 pm on a Thursday. Now lets think about this, I pay ongly God himself knows how much in tuition a year, and have to hold a job, and more often than not two or three, and I'm supposed to meet on a Thursday evening, what crack is this guy smoking. Then they say that it must not be important enough to go to so no one has any real complaints. Then there is the day they have a day to go to lexington to compalin to the central state government, but then they don't let us out of classes, and they don't offer to compensate for missing work either. It must be nice not to have to work, but right now, if they are not going to make it worth my while as far as creadits go or even compensation, I cannot afford thier bullshit. They have several functions on campus, and its great if they let us know in time, but then the timing is usually horrid. The whole thing is assinine if people don't know what's going on, they really need to put out some kind of bulletin so that people know. There will be more ranting, there always is but that is all I really have for just this moment.
And now amtgard, this whole invasion stuff was crap. We were so outnumbered and they sluffed so bad. Where was everyone? The newbies who stayed and faught, should be honored. And shame on all the others. Shamman? bro, what happened? Terrax was injured, Marcosias(sp?) someone else could have watched the kid. Etaukan, we could have used you on the bow, thanks for at least sticking around. Sekana, where were you, the massive volley of little balls would have helped. What happend to te legions of devout newbies? I love this game, and I am still looking for a fighting company, but right now I'm a little sour with the politics and policies on a more local level.

I got my Lord's Tittle, woooo hooo. And as some one put it "about time". I hope Shaman can get me the paperwork soon, He is cool enough, but forgets that stuff sometimes. I hope to make it to the event, Ali and I want to price things and test the waters to see about strarting up a little booth of our own, a little home buisiness to raise a little money. It has been a while since I caught an event. I need to get a stick of monster noodle to fix my great sword. I hope to have a new flatblade made soon, it will be a little smaller than the one's i usually turn out, made for event combat, to take advantage of the construction I have speant time learning.
I am glad to not have responsibility for anything at Madoc's Keep. I can turn my attention whole heartedly to personal projects, like the scale mail I am building. I wish I had some of my older armor work here people love what I have made and agree with my skill and love the pictures, but I don't have much to show them. I intend to assist the current kingdom regent as much as possible,

I finally made third level Barbarian, fight after death was alot of fun, I start counting, people start running, it was beautifull chaos. With my greatsword, I do three points of damage two handed, and to get through and take the arm, they have to survive a whole lot of poinding to get there. Next I think I will go for Monk, the class has some very appealing abilities. I will start taking monster credits at events. I am looking at finalizing the rest of the classes out to sixth level, with of course the ecception of Paladain and Anti-Paladain, I will take those when I can get them.
I took some pictures at the park the other day, but the camera lost battery power before I could tansfer them, and at 15$, what can one expact, but it is small enough to fit into a coin pouch at one's belt, so when I can I will start putting pictures both up here and on the group site.
I am thiniking of starting a fighting company, service based, not specifically dealing with the house, MacTaylor, but ceartainly house bro's are welcomed to petition to join. Our colors would be the innovative colors of brown and green, yes there would be no combination of blac/red/and or white anywhere in there, maybe in the symbol to make it stand out a little, but that's it. And we would have company projects, long term ones, that company members are required to take part in, and if they don't like it, they can quit(one of those, once you quit, you are not welcomed back things). I don't know that I have time for it right now, my schooling is really hard, but it is something I bear in mind.

Happy new year to all ... just a little bit late. At the almost completion of my 2nd reign, all I can say is Thank All the gods I can think of. It has been a head ache, and a little of a heartbreak, I have worked hard to present the populous with beutiful, high quality awards they can be proud of, and I am not even sure they appreciate the effort. If any of you guys see this, let me know if you like the awards.
I wish the O.R.K. allowed room for all the awards to be displayed in thier respective slots. I like the idea of a standardized award system, but I think by throwing away some of the "lesser" awards like armorer, gryphon, and crimson, from the ladder system, they are loosing alot, I like the idea of using crimsons for 1/4 a rose, because I haven't gotten a rose in years, but I stood to get two or three crimson before they disbanded them.
I look forward to starting my new armoring project, once Ringlord gets it done with, I think I will take this back to a one frame page. I think two isn't working with all the advertisements.
I am also thinking about condensing the index page into usefull, upfront links, and a link to last years notes.
I am only taking 14 hours this semester, still have the 2 hours a day on the bus, but I have taken up crochet to pass the time, I need some class sashes anyway. I am working on a green, a blue, a purple and a grey, just right off, I am really looking at monk, with the archery on the climb at MdK,*( much cooler than MAD, the other abreviation for Madoc's Keep)*,
