Crest - something like this:



Possibly Cappotto dell'Armi in Italian - thanks (maybe) to Babelfish

As for the order of the MoM - I shall leave that to His Grumpiness.

I'd try to photoshop it but that would take effort.

A Hello Kitty head with crossed Lugers underneath.

Order of the MOM Crest, rough draft #1.
Medium: MS Paint
Time: 5 min.

Needs some sort of banner with a motto along the bottom. And an artist with actual graphics tools.

Licet Cattus Aspicio Rex.

Okay, I'm not usually a joiner, but that sounds like a hell of a club. I'm an expert on the martial techniques taught in the secret dojos of the Vatican ("Jesu-jitsu")... Is that good enough for an honorary associate membership?

They can't understand why FOSYT (federation of sweet young things) always refuses to play in their annual nude softball tournamant.

Hmmm. I think we'll have to stop kicking-off the social season with the Naked Mazola Twister Grope-Offs.

(Ponders...)

'Course, the last one raised $35000 in entry fees. That buys a lot of mace.

I think the motto should be:

"Get off my lawn!"

So far I've found "Evado meus lawn" - hmmmm. Sounds better in English, so far.

"Evado mevs lavnvs"?
