Shout it loud - it must be heard!
Copy this sentence into your LiveJournal if you're in a heterosexual marriage, and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow. | | Tuesday, October 28th, 2008 | | 11:03 pm |

Se pystyy ken uskaltaa.
President Martti Ahtisaari from Finland has won the Nobel Peace Prize. It's always cool when somebody from Finland does good. But I in fact have a more direct connection to him. I have dealt with him in my official capacity as local herald. It was back in 1994 when the church of S. Lawrence in Vantaa was celebrating their 500th anniversary. We, meaning the Barony of Aarnimetsä, were contributing to the mediæval ambience to the best of our ability. Mr. Ahtisaari, as President of the Republic, was a guest of honour at the festivities. We provided two guardsmen with halberds to keep the riffraff from disturbing the lunch of Mr. and Ms. Ahtisaari, and a herald to welcome them and invite them to taste some mediæval food. I, being Aarnimetsä Pursuivant at the time, was that herald. The subject line here, "Se pystyy ken uskaltaa", is Mr. Ahtisaari's motto. It's in Finnish, and it means essentially "who dares wins", except its literal meaning is more 'achieving' than 'winning'.

Three things
Rules: Post 3 things you've done that you believe nobody else on your F-list has done. Indulge in remorse if someone calls you out on a listed item. 1. Stood at Brandenburg Gate and watched the Berlin Wall being demolished. 2. Plucked maggots from wounds. 3. Rode the city bus on an ice road. | | Friday, July 18th, 2008 | | 5:43 pm |

Making New Year's resolutions, the easy way
As ganked from janinas_nest. In 2008, vesilehti resolves to... Be nicer to finncon_2006. Go to drachenwald every Sunday. Backup my sf regularly. Get back in contact with some old janinas_nests. Apply for a new medieval. Learn to play the sca. The next to last one is surprisingly apropos, seeing as get_medieval is winding to a close right now. It's awesome. Go read it.

IMORGON, vill Gud, infaller vår Herres och Frälsares nåderika födelsefest; och varder förty härigenom en allmän JULFRED kungjord och påbjuden, med åtvarning till envar att denna högtid med tillbörlig andakt fira, och i övrigt iakttaga ett stilla och fridsamt uppförande emedan den, som häremot bryter samt julhögtiden genom något olagligt eller otillbörligt förfarande oskärar, gör sig under försvårande omständigheter förfallen till det straff, lag och författningar för varje brott och överträdelse särskilt påbjuda. Slutligen tillönskas landets samtliga invånare en fröjdefull julhelg. HUOMENNA, jos Jumala suo, on meidän Herramme ja Vapahtajamme armorikas syntymäjuhla; ja julistetaan siis täten yleinen JOULURAUHA kehoittamalla kaikkia tätä juhlaa asiaankuuluvalla hartaudella viettämään, sekä muutoin hiljaisesti ja rauhallisesti käyttäytymään, sillä se joka tämän rauhan rikkoo ja joulujuhlaa jollakin laittomalla taikka sopimattomalla käytöksellä häiritsee, on raskauttavien asianhaarain vallitessa syypää siihen rangaistukseen jonka laki ja asetukset kustakin rikoksesta ja rikkomuksesta erikseen säätävät. Lopuksi toivotetaan maan kaikille asukkaille riemullista joulujuhlaa.

Because nothing ever happens to me.
It was noted at coronation last weekend that I hardly ever post in my LJ. Seeing EvR elevated to the Order of the Pelican was a pleasure, though. Current Music: J. Karjalainen: Mies jolle ei tapahdu mitään | | Monday, April 30th, 2007 | | 8:22 pm |

Terranan, go home!
So Darkover is approaching once again. Special for this year we have a brand new website: http://www.darkovercon.org/. With shiny new pages, lovingly crafted by myself. Probably needs more Flash animation, frames, popups, blinking and scrolling text. I will get to work on that Real Soon Now. | | Monday, October 16th, 2006 | | 11:02 am |
