Invitations sent to Knights
up maybe we can get rid of the email and concentrate here. The stories will be most interesting? We shall watch and pray.

Fall trip and Petro Express
The fall trip is close at hand and the emails have picked up. Oddly enough, the emails started with one from Sir Gawain who had received an email from a friend of his. It was about Hugo Chavez and how Venezuela owns Petro Express (it doesn't), Russian arms deals and Iranian oil drilling of the coast of Venezuela.
That moved into voting for kings, overthrowing of kings, king for a trip and so forth. I will not be able to make the fall trip and they are trying to decide how to overthrow me, at least for the trip. A squinty-eyed Irishman, Michaleen Oge, is their self proscribed leader. He is a deeply religious man, praying often into the wee hours of the morning (BURRAAAPP! OH! merciful father...) and a fine seaman and inspector of houseboat mooring lines.
Trip planning was held at Sir Tim's backyard during the weekly horseshoe pit throw and beer swilling event. I live in Lexington and cannot visit on Mondays. Less than 5 years to retirement and then I'll have more time for socialization.
I have invited them all to sign up by following the link on this page. They should be able to post followups. This new learning is still amazing me and I have more to figure out. At least I have a husband.

Knights of Ni! start a new era
The Knights of Ni!, a traveling group of fishermen (or women) begin a new era in the reporting of their crusades. Now there is not only the web site http://knightsofni.home.insightbb.com but there is also the blog, a possible means of recording our adventures while we live them.
The Knights are followers of Monty Python, Mel Brooks, Zucker Brothers and other zanies. We started out as a group waaaay back in the year 1985 as the Festering Five but the number of people on each trip kept changing. We began bringing cassette tapes of the Python adventures on our trips and after several showings of Holy Grail we changed the name to Knights of Ni! This being a fairly common text string, adding KY to the beginning makes it somewhat more unique.
The average age in the beginning was somewhere in the 30s but now we are aging and most are in their fifties. We're adding new blood all the time which brings in more silliness. Silliness and the Peter Pan syndrome is what keeps us young.
We'll try this blogging thing out for a while and we'll see how silly it gets... hopefulle, very silly indeed, particularly if we can get a government grant from the minister.
