Colonial Campaigns Club (CCC)

May I have your attention all ye rustics, squirrel skinners, and other common riff-raff native to these lands. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

You are hereby put on notice that my <font color=red>Fighting Fop</font id=red>, my <font color=red>Deadly Dandy</font id=red>, has finally arrived on your shores to wreak havoc among your purses, your reputations, your taverns, your womenfolk, your courtyards and battlefields. This gentleman is already quite skilled in the military arts of <font color=gold>His Majesty's</font id=gold> war machine, but will undergo detailed and accelerated training under my watchful eye and finances, as he acclimates himself to the raw and crude nature of these colonies and your awkward ways of war. His identity will not be revealed until this is completed. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

In fair warning, do not be deceived by his extravagant appearance. True gentlemen in the King's Army are accustomed to only the best uniforms, wigs, and other sundry items that you colonials can only dream of possessing. <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle> But especially do not delude yourself into thinking that his appearance indicates a lack of skill and determination to turn your misfortunes into our fortunes! <b><font color=green>$$$</b></font id=green> Yes we intend to grow quite wealthy in this venture, while enjoying ouselves at your expense of course. <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

Several of you haughty provincials have already lined up to have a go at my lad, be assured he will graciously accomodate you all in due time, all in due time my pretties. <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle>

So for the sake of your lives and your "freedom", do yourselves a favor and undergo further drills in hiding behind trees and rocks and women. For he will pry you out from under those rocks to expose you as the treasonous vermin that you are known by in the civilized world. <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle> And puleeze!...do learn how to properly bow in a gentlemanly fashion after your jolly good whippings eh what!? <img src=icon_smile_shy.gif border=0 align=middle>

No, please, not our Taverns. Leave those shrines alone.

Our purses are already empty for obvious reasons. Reputations, everyone knows we are scounderels already. Womenfolk, now sir, your fop will be more dainty than them, right. Courtyards??? Must be a British thing. Battlefields, we will see.

But our Taverns. The only people allowed in taverns adorned with makeup and wigs are the women. Please do not defile these places with your Dinky Darling.

Tom, Actually I think the dinky darling might make a good serving wench, so don't be too quick to shut the little lady out of the watering holes.

tsk tsk, I was afraid I'd have to explain myself further. By taverns I meant establishments such as this one. Not the disease ridden, roach infested, bodily fluid smelling sink holes you are accustomed to. This is very nearly as good of quality as our fine British pubs back home...nearly, but it will suffice.

Courtyards...yes again I assumed too much of you backwoodsmen to know that courtyards are standard duelling grounds for gentlemen in dispute. While you thugs pound away at each other's noses where matters of honor are concerned, we aristocrats settle our personal scores with rapier and proper duelling pistols. Sigh...you rustics do have so much to learn before we can fully accept you into our good graces. <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>

Your ill informed references to "makeup and wigs" again speaks volumes for your lack of refinement. A gentleman of the Crown always sports a powdered wig as it's been the custom for centuries in the civil world. You blokes on the other hand, I imagine, must groom each other's lice from your heads in order to even have a decent meal! Makeup? Far better to conceal slight blemishes than to parade around with infection laden boils that I've had the displeasure to witness on countless Yankee prisoners of war. <img src=icon_smile_blackeye.gif border=0 align=middle>

I do chuckle at the ease with which you corn huskers dismiss my man based on what little information I've provided to date. And I invite you three rogues in particular to return here after he's doused your cheeky humour in your own blood. <img src=icon_smile_dead.gif border=0 align=middle>

And yes, we shall do the "serving" of your wenches, with kerchief to nose no doubt. <img src=icon_smile_clown.gif border=0 align=middle>

But, soon enough you will have your say on the field, then will we see your toothless grins in all their splendor again what what? <img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle>
