Heraldic amusement

[damont]

In response to a recent inquiry on an email list about blazoning a couple of possible designs, I used the following:
"Quarterly X and Y, an arrow fesswise between four widgets".
"<field>, on a bend sinister between two widgets a thingy".

I then concluded by saying:
"Yes, I am resorting to highly technical terms here. ;-)"

foo between two sets of goo?

well, if we're going with computer-tech-y terms, a baz between two foo's... ("foo", "bar", and "baz" are the first 3 entries in that sequence but "bar" actually has a pre-existing heraldic definition.)

(this idea of sets of goo has interesting possibilities...)
