This talk page is also known as the WikiBlitz Club, as I am hoping to attract all the hip, gear editors to come and post amusing comments here. While I shall act as hostess and resident DJ, my colleague GoodDay will be responsible for providing the dancing boys and girls in the cages suspended from the Art-Deco ceiling. The music is eclectic, anything from Gregorian chants, Richard Wagner, Elvis Presley, vintage David Bowie, Mozart, The Big Bopper, Small Faces, Van McCoy, Andrea True Connection, Johnny Cash, Motown, The Rolling Stones, the Beach Boys, Cockney Rebel, Haysi Fantayzee, Gerry and The Pacemakers, Stiff Little Fingers, Visage, The Doors, Bay City Rollers, TSOP, Sex Pistols, Led Zeppelin, Slade, The Sweet, Undertones, Santana, Jerry Reed, Van Morrison, Les Dudek, Deep Purple, Lene Lovich, Joy Division, Los Lobos, Communards, Pet Shop Boys, and Kate Bush will be played. The dress code is fluid; any type of fashion ranging from Roman togas, medieval halberks and cote-hardies to farthingales and ruffs; the Regency dandy, Mod, hippie, punk, goth, grunge; 1960s minis, glam rock-style lamé flared trousers and platforms, New Romantic pirate shirts and quiffs, expensive haute-couture is permissible. The club's official mascot is Anne Boleyn, which should serve as a reminder to patrons not to lose one's head whilst drinking our delightful concoctions prepared by our chief bartender Jack Forbes, as a host of dire consequences are likely to follow as a result, such as mind--blowing hangovers, morning-after guilt, amnesia, crabs, and the Nine-Months Screw.

IPs who post on this page are wasting their time as I shall not read nor reply to their posts. Only registered users will be acknowledged. As for trolls, the bouncers will toss them out of my club. Template:Archive box collapsable Physical violence is the first and only response for the hopelessly inarticulate, verbal violence is the first response of the true coward- Jeanne Boleyn, May 2009

Rest in peace, Titch. Your acts of kindness will never be forgotten True friendship never dies, it merely succors and comforts the spirit as we inexorably proceed towards the blue light of our own eternity.

Abbesses of Quedlinburg

Hello! Few days ago, I was reading something about Quedlinburg Abbey. I found out that its abbesses were very powerful women, whose only superior was the Pope. Not only that: the Abbess of Quedlinburg was a Princess of the Holy Roman Empire (thus entitled to seat in the College of Princes and a vote at the Diets). She was the only woman allowed to perform episcopal functions such as crowning queens of Bohemia. They were very wealthy and powerful and some of them led exciting lives (secret marriages and such scandals). Are you interested in helping me dig out something about these women? Surtsicna (talk) 20:13, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ooh yes. I am very interested. History reminds me of exploring Venice on foot. Once you step off the beaten tourist paths, you discover all of these secret, fascinating canals, and alleyways that you never knew existed. I had never heard of these Abbesses, just as I had never heard of Philippa of Champagne nor the Champagne War of Succession, until David drew my attention to it. By the way, how does my article on Philippa look? I completed it this morning. I'll have a look arond Internet and see if I locate anything on these abbesses.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 12:55, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
How does the article look? Well, you'd never guess that it was created just few days ago, given how informative it is! Can you speak German? I found a list of the abbesses at the German Wiki, but I can't speak German. I guess I'll have to use Google Book Search as well as German Wiki. By the way, David is welcome too! :) Surtsicna (talk) 18:46, 2 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The article is very good. No, unfortunately I cannot speak German. I do think some of the abbesses should have their own articles. I'll do a google search now and see what I can find.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 04:58, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I just created a stub on Anna II, Abbess of Quedlinburg. It needs to be expanded.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 06:00, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! Once I discovered that she is also known as Anna von Stolberg and Anna of Stolberg, the information just started popping out! Surtsicna (talk) 20:44, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Visconti

Hi Jeanne, true to my word today I created a page on Maddalena Visconti and I start one on Viridis Visconti. I find it hard to find info on Viridis so I thought you may be able to help. Cheers--David (talk) 10:52, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Semi-Retire

Hello Jeanne.I have to semi-retire today since I am going on Holidays tommorow.I wont be active as much.--HENRY V OF ENGLAND (talk) 16:02, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have a nice holiday, Henry! Take care.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Getting boring

Hi Jeanne, I am getting a bit bored at the moment, I have put article making on hold for the time being because I think there are plenty more discussions and adventures to be had. Is there anything you want to discuss?--David (talk) 18:03, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have you read about the Princess-Abbesses of Quedlinburg Abbey?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Anna II, Abbess of Quedlinburg sounds really interesting. Anna and the rest of Princess-Abbesses didn't really live a quiet life like you would normally expect--David (talk) 18:27, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, it sounds like there were lots of interesting going-ons inside the abbey walls. I wonder if Anna ever met Martin Luther?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:30, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I just found out that Princess-Abbess Anna Sophie II was a notable poet. See here, here and here. Oh, I can't stop reading about these women - rulers of their own little state! Surtsicna (talk) 22:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, imagine the power they wielded. I wonder if Anna II ever met Martin Luther?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 04:08, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Henriette de France

Bonjour Jeanne! The three paintings by van Dyck are so beautiful! I am going to miss the one in the white dress. Can't we have all three??? Passez un bon weekend. Frania W. (talk) 11:52, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
