.....So I'm wandering around the Red Dance here at NORWESCON and I see this older gentleman on the dance floor. Long silvering hair, a red printed coat, a cane, red spandex and a coronet of some type on his head. He looks vaguely familiar for some reason. I'm watching him for a while until he faces my direction with the light on him. Oh, my, god, it is Sir Brand! In bright, red spandex?!?! This is rather disconcerting. I'm never going to be able to read his poetry again without that image in my mind. :-)

.....He looked like he was having fun though. And keeping the beat as well amongst all the goth crowd, fairy wings, Star Trek officers and Jedi Knights.

.....Come to think of it, watching this crowd dance made me wish in some way that the SCA was as accepting of its fringe crowd. Just sayin'... :-)

.....Greetings All,

.....I have performed my first act of penance and completed the first Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Ms. Rowling has a lot of creativity. If she had Tolkien's depth and knowledge, her creativity could lead to something great. But I've been told though that her story telling abilities increase faster and faster and farther and farther with each book, so we'll see. :-)

.....Not a bad story though. The ending seemed rather contrived and short, but still a good read. Although it was hard to try and get the climax of The Hobbit out of my mind as I finished the book. The battle of Voldemort / Quirrel and Harry Potter versus The Battle of the Five Armies. Not much of a comparison there. :-)

.....See what lengths I'll travel to try and make the Beloved Tamm happy. :-)

.....I'm going to head out to NORWESCON and cleanse my brain with a little Tolkien geekdom before tackling Book 2. :-)

.....Aaron / Arontius.
