Re[3]: Are Duck Pins Period?

[Kim.Salazar@em.doe.gov]

I believe many of you are not understanding this topic, although Gyrth 
seems to be close. I interpret the discussion as one on Duke Puns! What say 
your Graces? Gyrth? Dyffd? Anyone else? Are Duke Puns period? I have come 
across many at events.

P.S. Brok assures me he has come across an example of a true Duck Pin from 
an ancient Welsh dig. Or it might be a Swan Pin. Anyway it is of the cloth 
fasening type.


     To Miriam from Ianthe,
     
     I am delighted to hear about the Pin.  I prefer to wear ducks to 
     swans, the swans being heavier and possessed of those long white 
     necks.  I wouldn't want to cause any confusion should my swan choose 
     to twine its neck around my waist and rest its head on my hip.
     
     As for Duke Puns, I think they are occasionally reprehensible, all too 
     ubiquitous, and entirely unavoidable.  Much like Dukes, themselves.
