All right Gentlemen, easy there.  ;)

The "Chivalry of the Week" will start soon, I am compiling a list of Knights featured in History and Literature (the History Knights will be the less mentioned to the famous one and their influence in literature).  I am plan to start this next week from today.  It is going to be an introduction post.

What's funny about having learned math on an abacus?  They were still using those when I was in 2nd grade- and I knew how to use it, too.  :)

Joshua,

Hope I spelled your name right....you are so great for my ego! Sometime I gotta meet you. You're in S. NJ? Maybe if you go to the PA Ren Faire for the day, you could pick me up...I'll pay your way into the Faire if you do.
