LOL, now that's really funny, glad I wasn't drinking anything when I saw that photo. That being said- feel free to use that statement as you will, I think it could be said better but its a start.

I always dreamed of being a knight, but not for the attention, or rewards but for the opportunity to do the right thing and stand for more than I am. Our choices define us in life, and we all have had our tests, and failed at times, yet its that fact that we are here still dreaming of what should be that counts.

Most elegantly stated good Sir!  :)

I propose to all our esteemed colleges that we adopt this statement has one of our founding creeds of our order!

What say you?


I second that!

Hahahahahaha, That's hilarious Sir Edward.
Sir Brian, I think this may go farther than a Justin Bieber poster, as one you can put away in a closet. This we can spam to the point of it being the very first thing that appears when someone plugs in your name to the compooter. (So Evil.... ;D)

Well you have to admit he is rather fetching in it. It would make a great dare, don't you all think? Almost Monty Python, lets see three or four of us dress as such, invisable horse, and squires with coconuts...

LOL - for those who do not know what we are, we appear as men in dresses anyway, with lots of heavy jewelry.

Sir Edward?  ;)
