As many of you know I was raised a Jew and think of myself as a Jew.... who has not shared a great Jewish Medieval joke. Here it is:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One Pope, in the Dark Ages, decreed that all Jews had to leave Rome. The Jews did not want to leave, and so the Pope challenged them to a disputation to prove that they could remain. No one, however, wanted the responsibility... until the synagogue janitor, Moishe, volunteered.
As there was nobody else who wanted to go, Moishe was given the task. But because he knew only Hebrew, a silent debate was agreed. The day of the debate came, and they went to St. Peter's Square to sort out the decision. First the Pope waved his hand around his head. Moishe pointed firmly at the ground.
The Pope, in some surprise, held up three fingers. In response, Moishe gave him the middle finger.
The crowd started to complain, but the Pope thoughtfully waved them to be quiet. He took out a bottle of wine and a wafer, holding them up. Moishe took out an apple, and held it up.
The Pope, to the people’s surprise, said, "I concede. This man is too good. The Jews can stay."
Later, the Pope was asked what the debate had meant. He explained, "First, I showed him the Heavens, to show that God is everywhere. He pointed at the ground to signify that God is right here with us. I showed him three fingers, for the Trinity. He reminded me that there is One God common to both our religions. I showed him wine and a wafer, for God's forgiveness. With an apple, he showed me original sin. The man was a master of silent debate."
In the Jewish corner, Moishe had the same question put to him, and answered, "It was all nonsense, really. First, he told me that this whole town would be free of Jews. I told him, Go to Hell! We’re staying right here! Then, he told me we had three days to get out. I told him just what I thought of that proposal." An older woman asked, "But what about the part at the end?" "That?" said Moishe with a shrug, "Well, I saw him take out his lunch, so I took out mine."

Ha! That's a great example of the ever indomitable and pragmatic Jew.  :)

Amazon.com listing for generic gothic upper legs / knees (no greaves):

http://www.amazon.com/Full-Leg-Steel-Gothic-Armor/dp/B003ZWY3WG/ref=pd_sbs_a_24

Quote
Do not believe the hype from the 2nd rate publications "Knight Times" and "Mi Armour." This product is terrible. When I purchase armour that is advertised as "full leg" I expect it to be just that. However, in my recent battle defending my country of Tillamoore in the region of Glog in last weekends Battle and BBQ at Taft Park I was taken out within the first minutes of battle from a well aimed foam arrow to my knee. I was the laughing stock of the festival. Even though this is some of the most comfortable leg armour I own, I will banish to the attic for its lack of protection. The detailing is amateur at best and it is a bit on the noisy side. So, beware, this will not protect you from arrows, darts, rocks, bullys, uncles or swords. If I could, I'd dig a moat around this product.
