so, THAT's where it came from!

I'm so behind the cool kids these days, but I think I've finally found an origin story for the "I'm in your x, ying your z" meme. I find the medieval version especially funny, for some reason :P

Comprehensive gallery here; be advised that some aren't work/child safe and most are tasteless.

Nothing to do with this, but where in the DC area do you fence?

[anotheranon.livejournal.com]

The club where I take classes and usually free fence is here (http://www.fencer.com/ccfc.html); I've also visited here (www.recgov.org/r&w/nihfence/) a couple of times.

All my historic fencing is through these guys (http://www.mashs.org), though it's not been often lately.

Why do you ask?

A friend who lives in Laurel is looking. I told her I'd ask you.

If you could tell me her favored weapon(s), level of experience, and what kind of instruction she's seeking, I might be able to give better suggestions.

She's a newbie. She's never fenced before and is looking to get into it for the exercise. Right now she runs after work, but she works in DC and would like to find a way to exercise indoors.
