The Skullery Maids

Another "minor" act at The Carolina Renaissance Festival are The Scullery Maids. This was a unique and interesting show because they had an obviously plant in the audience who want interacting with them. I say "obvious," because that's him on the stage. He was posing as their director and was giving them "tips" during the show.

A very nice interlude at the fair -- they're at the Washer Wenches stage near the Pirate's launch bouncy-thing. Stop on by!

1 Its all very nice, thank you, but what about the nuns. Did you visit the nuns?

Sir, upon revisiting, please get thee to the nunnery! Ah, here's the rub... does anyone know which of Shakespeare's plays I'm referencing? Ogre, this is to pay you back for that elusive and obscure reference of yesterday. Mwuahhahahaha!

2 Strangely enough, the nuns' stage is right across from this stage. I've just never been near that stage at the time the nuns are there -- it's not planned, they're just not around when I am! I wish they'd plan their schedule around me, that would be so much easier...

Well, just one weekend left, so I shall have to find time for them. But I'm not sure -- there is the Michigan-Ohio State game I should watch Saturday afternoon...

3 Ah thanks for the change of pace.

Thought for the day for you.

4 Now, whyc would you be watching that game. I know that I'll be watching in case one of my mentees is put on screen as she was in a game a month ago. But you? Why?

6 And thanks again, Patty.

I like to try and lighten things up each and every afternoon. Too much stress makes Jack a dull boy...

7 Thank you, you gorgeous pes[..simes...]t, for distracting me. I wish I had such distractions locally.

I'll continue to be vigilant until '08...and beyond, but I'll also continue to visit so as to be distracted occasionally.

8 You've got to let up and relax sometimes!

9 OK since no one guessed I'll tell. The obscure reference is from Hamlet. I believe it is in Act 3 Hamlet tells his formerly beloved Ophelia, who's been nagging the hell out of him, to get thee to a nunnery, which in those days were more often than not brothels.

Nice fella huh!

For the record: I'm Not saying that anyone should send their girlfriends there or visit brothels themselves. I'm simply sharing a little bit of literary history. Now that I've bored your readers, you may resume blogging.
