    Well, Mary of Exeter didn't have any problem with archers, at least as far as I'm aware, but she did get into a fight with some hawks the Germans kept. They wounded her in the neck and right breast, but she was able to return to duty after two months. On a later mission she had a run in with someone with a scatter gun, got her wingtip shot off and several pellets in her body. She was eventually retired after being hit by shrapnel, tearing her neck muscles badly, but still she got through. Her owner made a leather harness that allowed her to keep her head up even though the muscles were just so much minced meat. Her retirement was however not to be as pleasantly quiet as a Lady with her merits deserve as in 1942 the germans managed to drop a bomb on the loft where she was spending her days. But once again she pulled through and survived even this, though a lot of the other pigeons in the loft were killed. She was presented with the Dickin Medal in November of 1945, and eventually died in 1950. With no dropped packages she had a pretty good record...

    I can understand why Susan never took sword lessons, well there are probably numerous reasons. 1) No one in Moperville trains in the usage of long swords, at best as some state, only Fencing, which isn't the same. Closest thing might be to join an SCA group but dunno how that would work. 2) Some suggest that she should have no problem getting training because she's rich, but Susan might not want her mom to pay for everything, Susan has a job, I'm certain that Susan bought her car with her own money from her job, so if she wanting to get professionally trained, she'd probably pay for it herself, but she might not have the time to invest between work and school. 3)She probably wanted to forget the whole vampire incident and didn't believe she'd ever have to deal with that sort of thing again, we know she didn't want to look at her spellbook after her awakening, she probably didn't want to use a sword until the goo fight. My guess is she kept swords in her summoning chest more as a deterrent if someone tried to mess with her. 4)She might not have wanted her mom to suspect anything happened to her in France, it'd probably be concerning if your daughter came back from a school trip requesting to take swordfighting classes, even if the excuse is that they were told about Joan of Arc. I never said he had a chance of succeeding.

    The Burmese Pythons multiplying in Florida swamps are getting big enough to eat alligators. So, get ready for Pythoon.

    I suspect that "Duke and Beer" would beat that. Assuming the Duke didn't fall over laughing. SCA thing.

    Not the face of just any man. That Alpo munching auditory appendage holds the face of Sean Connery.

    After I posted the above, I don't know why, but my right leg and hip rebelled against me. Both hurt all day, even when I tried to sleep. I'd call it a pain in the arse, but I'd be a couple of inches off.

    Things That Are Just Annoying

    Because I want to watch selected TV shows, I called up Cox to find out what the cheapest way of getting them was. Turns out that I need the whole shooting match to get Discovery-Science. OK, did that. Then I find out that their SSO server is dead with a return to service date of "around the 19th", which means I can't watch them. So, if it's still dead come the end of the month, well, I'm cancelling the TV side of the service. I expect this to be a major hassle.
