zephyrofgodIn this entry, I said you could ask me questions. (I'm still taking them, FYI.)
Here are the questions I was asked, in no particular order.

lrdfaelan asked, "Y'all ever comin' to Northshield?"
Honestly, I don't know. I'd like to, eventually. Depends on my budget and a few other things.
rayebs wanted to know, "concisely, what is this thing you do that you got to see 'nobility'?"
I'm a part of the Society for Creative Anachronism, or the SCA. It's a recreation society dedicated to learning about the Middle Ages (and the Renaissance) in a hands-on way. The SCA website puts it much better than I can. "The SCA is an international organization dedicated to researching and re-creating the arts and skills of pre-17th-century Europe. Our 'Known World' consists of 19 kingdoms, with over 30,000 members residing in countries around the world. Members, dressed in clothing of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, attend events which feature tournaments, royal courts, feasts, dancing, various classes & workshops, and more." (www.sca.org)
harlequin_elf asked, "you still wear that cloak I made? :P"
You betcha. It's perfect for fall, winter, and spring events, and occasionally a cool summer event. I've gotten many compliments on it, and I still maintain that I did good in commissioning it from you.
Only becausenewcastleepl is such a brat, did he ask this question: "why are stormtroopers, the elite soldiers of the empire, such terrible shots?
=D"
A), this question is terrible. B), you're a brat. C), probably because they're out of practice and Darth Vader doesn't want them to do target practice and instead kills them off instead, or D), it's a conspiracy.
If you want to get in on the next round of questions to answer, feel free to comment on the aforementioned entry, or this one. I'll try and remember to answer it soon. :)
