Name: John McGarry
Request: If it so please the Squirrel King of Arms, I request the assistance of the College in designing and obtaining arms for myself and my lawful heirs.
Favorite colors: green, blue and red.
I would like to include symbols that correspond to communication, irreverence and humor.
I am currently a resident of Vuode and, I guess, I'm the Cunstavál. I am also an old-growth citizen (pre-internet) since 1993.
Thanks! John McGarry

Thanks! John McGarry Azul S:reu McGarry - The College of Arms stands ready to assist you with your design. An old-growth citizen like yourself should only be assisted by the Squirrel King himself. Seek you irreverence and humour? Please take care! Around the College, if you seek those topics you're liable to end up with a thigh-slappingly amusing blazon like, "Ermines, an ermine or, maintaining an oar ermine." Isn't heraldry fun? -- Jaune Sabre Herald, Squirrel King at Arms

Seek you irreverence and humour? Please take care! Around the College, if you seek those topics you're liable to end up with a thigh-slappingly amusing blazon like, "Ermines, an ermine or, maintaining an oar ermine." Or maybe "Gules, a fairy vairy vair and or and an oar or, on a pale or in pale a pail between two jewels gules, overall an orle of quarrels or." Crest: "A badger azure girdled vert." Supporters: "A merman ermine and a pauper proper." Credit for that design goes to Columcille Pursuivant and the former Blanc Wolf Herald.

Supporters: "A merman ermine and a pauper proper." Stop! STOP! You're killing me. LOL! <pounds table, wipes tears from eyes, takes deep breaths, sighs> Before we return to S:reu McGarry's request, let me point out another good site for Heraldic Humor: Heraldrydiculous, by Khevron, the inventor of Iron-On Heraldry: Technically, that's Sable, an orle of goutte's d'eau.
