So I’m rolling by the rock Excalibur is stuck in and think to myself, “I wonder if anyone has tried switching the light-sabre to ON?”. Bingo! Excalibur slides right out. But enough about me Guinevere, how’s the new traction control performing on your steed?

Since the SPCA and PETA nixed the Renaissance club’s plans to use horses for their jousting tournament, they had to settle for Sedgeway jousting.

Sadly, despite King Arthur’s tax incentives, the Segway did not catch on during the Dark Ages. Historians blame its demise on the difficulty of retrofitting castles with electric outlets.

Tensions rise as, representing their rival gangs, The GRAND LORD EUGENE FESSENBERGER of the Royal Knights of the Robert M. James Hall of Engineering and The HIGH COUNTESS GERDY POLYCHRONOPOLIS of the Divine Ladies of the Diane V. Lewis Hall of Arts and Letters square off to negotiate terms for a cease-fire in their fierce battle over the Arnold Pew Rec Room.

This is a picture taken at Reed College’s “Renn Fayre,” an all-out campus-wide party/event to celebrate the completion of senior theses. Check the rennfayre tag on Flickr for other photos from this event (and from previous years).

As an added bonus, this guy is in charge of a nuclear reactor. Seriously.

When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that’s what you’re going to get, the strongest castle in all of England.

OK, but if I fall off we’ll definitely burn as a witch.
