Hot babes in skimpy armor might be outlandish but still a good expenditure of chivalrous effort.  Cool

Chivalrous or frivolous?

That's a radio station.
Wax is slang for the old vinyl LP records. Since replaced by CDs.

I wear a monocle when the occasion calls for it:

Sounds like Sir Galahad The Chaste In Castle Anthrax from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

ZOOT: Oh, I am afraid our life must seem very dull and quiet compared to yours. We are but eight score young blondes and brunettes, all between sixteen and nineteen-and-a-half, cut off in this castle with no one to protect us. Oooh. It is a lonely life: bathing, dressing, undressing, making exciting underwear. We are just not used to handsome knights. Nay. Nay. Come. Come. You may lie here. Oh, but you are wounded!

Wowzerz!

In the right  theme bare breasts are fine. They look great on  Mexican Libertads.  Grin  But why would a  knight/knightress ride into a battle with an exposed chest?

The Amazons allegedly cut off a breast to be better at archery.

Botticelli's so-called "Birth of Venus" (aka: Venus on the Half Shell) is taken from Roman mythology (based on earlier Greek). She's seen rising from the waters riding a scallop shell with a bit of the sea foam evident that caused her birth. The shell symbolizes the ancient product of the water, which gave birth to us all. Various other pagan images adorn the painting. And Venus is the goddess of sexuality, so she's gonna be depicted a bit sexy, 'natch.
The knights' code of chivalry was based in, in part, courtly love -- a product likely brought to Europe from Persia. (A loaf of bread, a glass of wine and thou, &c.) Courtly love involved a strange practice of loving women from a distance, mostly the lady of the castle or manor, who was already spoken for.
BTW: the Botticelli painting is reprinted in ink transfer on a 2008 Cook Islands coin.
Here's some courtly love:

Nevol I just want you to know how much Edix and I love you for being the official recorder on this quest.

Indeed!

Looking to amend mine to add satin silver and satin copper.
Also, where to pay non PayPal?
40  KOTCT Global Projects / 2009 Medallion Quest / Re: PLEASE READ (2009) Medallions on: January 21, 2010, 07:59:37 PM
I will tentatively amend my order by increasing it.
I would wish to obtain:
the silver satin
the copper satin
and
the pewter, as previously requested.

I don't have PayPal, nor personal checks, so can only supply a postal money order.
Let me know the ultimate ordering details when available.
Cheers!

It's still pretty unclear.
Thanx anyway.

Looks like you ordered last year a silver and copper proof and the pewter medal, plus a freebie antiqued copper medallion:

I may alter my order up soon, somewhat, depending on things. I'll let you know.

I'm kinda confused.
Are we really making full orders at this point?
Are those all the real choices being offered?
When is the deadline for orders and how do you pay if you don't have Paypal?

btw - one of the moderators may wish to send out a global email notice on this to the entire court, since I simply stumbled upon the topic today, totally unawares.
