A defining moment, no doubt. Now all of life's moments will be measured by this benchmark.

(Were your muscles sore the next day, Mr. Desk Job? ;-))

Laura Kathryn said...

you mean the one with which he clave asunder the heads - skulls, helmets and all - of many mighty men, at one blow apiece?!? you must feel somehow stronger and wilder now, not to mention nobler.

Nomos said...

They let you pick up his sword? Wow...

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm jealous.

supersweetwickedbadawesome!!! No fair, I'm gonna go pout in the corner...

Shweet! Yes, yes, I'm feeling a tad jealous right about now.

Wow. No comment...well, I guess this is a comment...

Sorry to be the hair in the casserole Ryan, but it's "envious."

Lynn Bruce said...

well, actually, monolog... since ryan is a scotsman himself, would he not be qualified for jealousy in such matters?

Cal-el of Krypton said...

There are no words for a moment like that. Only a poet could describe how wicked AWESOME that is!!

I'd be more jealous if it was William Wallace's, but even so I am sufficiently green to warrent repentance.

Tell me about his skull! Was he cute?

Well, it's not exactly fair to say, I mean, the poor chap is 700 year past his prime. BUT-- he did have good cheekbones. And that, my dear, is The Important Thing.

Thats awesome!

I mean...besides the fact that you are Scottish and not Irish I guess its cool.

But I have a great idea. You should bring your pictures of it with you and bring your family to our meeting at Zion Rest PBC in a couple of weeks.

And just in case the Queen is reading this I know that you were at the Greens for our last meeting which I should remind you is only 2 hours away....so I should expect to see you this time.

Ahem.

That's soooo cool! I must say I'm rather envious myself. :D

rachel tsunami said...

Whoa, el'nay, not to take anything away from your appeal to the Bruces, but we are THREE hours away from Zion Rest. (and 3 1/2 from the B's and P's)

If someone's been doing it in 2 we need to talk about slowing down...;-D

Anyway, it ought to be a wonderful meeting!

Unknown said...

Well...maybe I coudln't make it in quite 2 hrs...but 2 definitely sounds more convicting. And it will be a wonderful meeting you all should definitely come.
Even you Great Scott.

20 blasted comments and all but two, plus the deleted comment above me, are from different people. Whats your secret to becoming so popular?

[and yes I have absolutely no clue what this post is about...]

Joe, you have to understand, that first off, the beehive does not become popular, but is popular. First off, you have Queen Shenaynay, who is after all, a queen. But most know her as an Aunt, which if you didn't know, Aunts and Uncles are the coolest. Second, there is Great Scot, who is a great scot. Behind of cource, William the Wallace and Robert the Bruce, though I don't konw which one is better. (Great Scot could probably inform you as to that) Then you have, Fa-so-la-la, who is quite charming and has the loveliest high tenor you ever heard. Next is Shieldmaiden, though I never understood her name, is quite funny and like-able by all. Last, but not least, is Spuddy-Buddy. Although his not a contributor yet, he is definitely the coolest little guy I know. So there you have it. Why the Beehive is so popular. At least in my opinion.

joe4444 said...

Yea thats cool, i'm not knockin' da 'hive, i'm just wondering how they do what I've been trying to do for ages. I figured theres gotta be a secret to it, but perhaps its just natural talent.
