In The Axe and the Icon, James H. Billington wrote:Perhaps there was an unconscious realization of this unreality in Elizabeth's almost compulsive fondness for masquerades. Things were not what they seemed in the Elizabethan court. Cryptic maxim, fables, and acrostics had already established themselves at the Tsar's court; and ever since 1735 there had been a special chair of allegory in the Academy of Sciences. Elizabeth's coronation had been celebrated by to examples of allegorical ballet, her favorite form of theatrical entertainment. Increasingly during her reign, she sponsored not only masked balls of various sorts by a particular type known as a "metamorphosis" wherein men came disguised as women and vice versa.

Re: THE SWISH EMBASSY - Divas, Drag Queens, and the Damned
OK my drag Queen name is "Eva Distruction"
I kinda like it.
Does it count if I used a pseudo-name?

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

I think Tess Testosterone can beat up Eva Destruction.
Am I doing this right. We are supposed to carry bricks in our evening bags so we can hit cops on the head during riots, right?

I guess with all the drama going on over in the tickets threads, things are on hold for a bit...
So apparently we're starting the entertainment section of the program a little early.
Something Trojan sent to pass along:

Damn, those are great! Glad we'll be having such a big group of celebrities camping in our midst. Hope the extra security doesn't effect the event too badly.
Will they have to get their tickets through the lottery or will there be some sort of special dispensation for them?

I'm Madam Ovary or Sherripop Pie. I guess I could take votes, but I'm leaning towards Sherripop Pie

tamarakay - I'm behind Sherripop Pie all the way!
jkisha - I'm afraid no one is going to get around the lottery
but on the bright side, not to worry about the security forces. The Swish Embassy is surrounded by M.A.S.H. 4207th, Apokiliptika, and the dreaded PlayaWaste Raiders...and I hear they're going to be pretty damned glam, too!
Here are a few more sign-ups:





So yeah, a nice international crowd.

You might want to try across the street for that - I have no idea of the level of depravity the Raiders are capable of (mostly because I have never played Fallout. Seriously I have no idea...
