[MR] More on the rolls of arms

[Tracy Janicki]

I know, I know, I should just hold my tongue....but seriously people were you all born mature, responsible and 45?  If we want new, young blood, we need to let them act young. I mean hell, part of the reason I started coming to events was just to see if everything I heard was true.  Thank God it was!!!  I had a  blast during college.  And let me tell you some of us little hellions are still in the society, and dragged our husbands and wives in as well as the next generation of little spawn.  And as for "Not in front of the kids!!"  I have seen perfectly respectable "nobles" taste a  bit too much when judging a brewing contest and act like jerks.  Beside they can accidentally see anything that happens at an event on TV or in a  mall parking lot.   Many of us have grown into our roles in the SCA, and in the process forgot this is about having fun.  Cut everybody some slack.  Next thing you know the dancers and drummers will be on the block for being too
 loud, or dancing too late.  We had, and are still having our fun.  Them the new people have a  chance.
