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. One last thing, music and passion are always the fashion at WikiBlitz.
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. We also have a Roman Catholic priest on the premises to bless the drinks as well as provide moral security. 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. The first anniversary of your sad departure has not been overlooked.

Despenser war...
Evening! Saw your interest in the Despenser War. It's a sadly often overlooked conflict... Would it be of any use to you if I went through and gave it a scrub for citations etc. against the standard works for the 1320s? I've probably got a bit of time tomorrow if that would be helpful. Hchc2009 (talk) 20:02, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
- I would love for you to do that! Ive created several articles relating to that war.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 20:18, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
- Will fish the material out tomorrow and see what I can do... Hchc2009 (talk) 20:22, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 20:26, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
- I've done some initial tidying up and citation-adding here in user space, will carry on a bit later and do the rest of it. A couple of things I'd be interested in your views though.
- There's a definite mix in the way that authors refer to the conflict. Some are using "Despenser War" to refer to the second half of the conflict; some "Despenser War" to refer to both 1321 and 1322 phases; some use "Despenser Wars" to refer to both. I'm going to propose that we stick with "Despenser War", use it to refer to both phases since we'd have to cover the events of 1321 anyway for it to make sense, and note the academic disagreement in a footnote. What do you reckon?
- The Costain reference - this has to be the three Edwards book, I reckon?
- I'm baffled by the "Five Day's Raid in Glamorgan" bit. The link in the citation doesn't work, and the only reference on Google Books or a search engine I can find for this phrase is an obscure 1904 volume by Griffith. And I can't find anything talking about a Welsh revolution. Have you ever come across anything which refers to this bit of the conflict in this way?
- Cheers! Hchc2009 (talk) 10:36, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Yes. The Costain book is the The Three Edwards. As for the Five Day's Raid in Glamorgan, I also did a search and came up with zero. The War should stick to the events of 1321 and 1322, and leave Wales and this mythical raid out. The rebellion was by the Marcher Lords against Edward II and the Despensers! Where do the Welsh come into it?! I am the author who added the part about the Marcher Lords and removed the plural wars; prior to that it was called a Welsh revolution.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 10:49, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Agreed. Perhaps there's some additional or recent historical work been done by historians on this in Welsh (not impossible), but in the absence of apparently any valid reference or cited material, I'm going to leave it out.Hchc2009 (talk) 11:13, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, it should be left out entirely. By the way, your work on the article looks good!--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:00, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- I've moved it over from user space. It'll still need some work, but it's looking a bit more solid. Feel free to tweak it! Hchc2009 (talk) 18:06, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Benny said it's OK
The Pope said it's alright to use condoms, when wishing to protect yourself from STDs. GoodDay (talk) 18:05, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- And for those who like the feel of Latex on their members?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:16, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- It's still considered a sin, if the usage is merely to prevent pregnancy. GoodDay (talk) 18:21, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Latex? blah. Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby. The Vatican may begin selling condoms. Here's some possible brand names - Latin latex, Holy Father knows best, The 10 commandments on prevention or Where angels dare to thread. GoodDay (talk) 13:22, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
- Those are funny! What about these brand names: Vatican 10 (blessed Latex for your ten inches). Confessional Tubes, Holy Rollers or Rubber John Paulies (with a picture of Pope John Paul II on the packet)?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 14:15, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
