    Yes, I too am inspired by the work of the great EPEE Masters throughout history.

    Just wait until you see what is in store for tomorrow... we might get a visit from an old greek EPEEist.

    Now go forth (but hit first) be fruitful and give rep to one another.

    Congrats to V for joining myself and the son of Patrocles.

    Will it involve many references to wine-dark seas? Do tell!

    Odesseus was a mighty EPEEist, but so were a few of his mighty bretheren.

    Truthfully, I have not yet settled on a piece.
    I trust that the spirit will guide me in the selection


    btw. Homer, himself, was a referee (commonly believed)

    I suppose Odysseus would have to be an epeeist to get lost for ten years on his way home. Or, maybe he was just waiting for somebody else to make the first move?

    I was born a foilist and was a faithful practitioner even though my personal beliefs and actions were rather liberal and widely considered to be somewhat unorthodox.

    As I grew up and began to gain first hand experience with some of the harsher elements of the world, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery. I looked deep inside my soul and began to question the world around me. What I saw was startling, and terrified my inner being. I learned that sometimes up could be down, forward could be backward and that right-of-way could be wrong. I was lost and shattered. Had the world of my childhood been a big fat stack of lies?

    My moral compass was spinning in a sea of doubt.

    But then, when all hope was nearly lost, the truth was revealed to me. My life was forever changed. EPEE was to forever change my life for the better. It was as though I had found a peaceful harbor in the midst of a raging storm. Every day became a little brighter, and I began to love the world again.

    I had been redeemed; saved as it were.

    Now I preach the gospel of truth, and shout it in the streets.

    EPEE! EPEE! EPEE!

    Truth like a cool glass of water, as I walk though the deserts of iniquity.

    That's beautiful man... I had forgoten that Mr Keats was a member of the EPEE bretheren.

    I can't award Schia his EPEE points right now, because I've given all mine out for today, so everyone be sure to give Schia a little boost.

    Epee... is the true weapon. Its closer to combat than foil or sabre will ever be.
    "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be.

    Suffer the little children to come unto EPEE, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

    Welcome - Finally

    Make sure you share with your EPEE bretheren, and ye shall be blessed eternally
