 I don't have any say on locations.  The OTOs seem to be gradually working their way east... Last year some got together in Las Vegas... Next month they're getting together in San Antonio and Austin, TX... I'm waiting for them to make it to St. Louis! OH! Several got together at the Tribeca film fest in NY last year also... Maybe they'll do that again this year. Later, __________________

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! NYC is pretty far for me too,but I have family in NJ so I can always combine the two visits. And I could really do the Texas thing too except for the fact that I am already flying to Texas in April and I couldn't see making 2 trips so close together. Well,maybe next year!
And for anybody who CAN make it to LA area in August,I have always heard wonderful things about the Bowl-a-thon both as to fun had and a good cause being supported.  |

I belong to the SCA. We have a little birthday song we like to do...after waaay too many beers:
The SCA birthday song is an old, but happy tradition. It seems to have fallen out of favour recently (mostly because no-one can remember the words). This song has has several names, such as 'The SCA Birthday Dirge', 'The Barbarian Birthday Song', 'The Viking Birthday Song' etc. and is sung to the tune of 'The Volga Boatmen'. After each "Happy birthday" is sung/chanted, it is followed by a thud or grunt you get if you lift something heavy. This isn't a copyrighted song, and variations run free through the SCA and can be found everywhere. There are loads of variations, but here are several: The Birthday Dirge Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Doom and gloom and dark despair People dying everywhere! Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Black Death has just struck your town You yourself feel quite run-down Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! So you're 29 again Don't tell lies to your good friend Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! So another year has passed Don't look now they're gaining fast! Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Fear and gloom and darkness but no one found out YOU KNOW WHAT Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Were I sitting in your shoes I'd go out and sing the blues Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! The Viking/Barbarian Verses: Burn the castle and storm the keep Kill the women, but save the sheep Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Indigestion's what you get From the enemies you 'et Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! May the candles on your cake Burn like cities in your wake. Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! We love children, yes we do Baked or broiled or in a stew Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! May your deeds with sheep and yaks Equal those with sword and axe Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! This one lesson you must learn First you pillage, then you burn Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! While you eat your birthday stew We will loot the town for you. Happy Birthday! thud! Happy Birthday! thud! Bet Bill is sorry we're not all there to sing(bellow) this in person to him!!   |

We have camping weekends. The purpose of the costumes is so we can have great banquet feasts with dancing,revelry and bad song stylings....as well as sometimes when it all comes together in the candlelight and is quite magical.
