The fact the clan has been tied to Babylon & Carthage suggests use the
pheonetic associated with the middle eastern languages. Bur-jah would
seem appropriate. (Like Eli-jah)

All the Brit kindred I know pronounce it Bru-jah. The only American
kindred I met called 'em Bru-hah. A single example isn't conclusive,
tho, but given the number of stateside posters, I'm sure someone will
comment.

I have heard yuppy types call us Bru-yah, but they stopped.

I like this one...

BTW, there are a number of Lightbulb jokes told under Neonates believing
themselves alone. Are there any Brujah ones? I like the characteriscs
given by them for each Clan very much.

The only joke i know with Brujah and lightbulbs is;
Q: How many Brujah does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: One. If that is, you want the lightbulb changed into shards of glass.

True - but out of the 15 or so Bru I know personally, about 3 are

Well, from what I understand of the 'lightbulb jokes' is that they are
a take of stereotypes. My two favoites for my clan ((OOC brazenly
stolen!!))
Q. How many Malkavians does it take to change a lightbulb
A. A FISH!

Q. How many Malkavians does it take to change a lightbulb
A. Two, one to get the lader, and the other to fill the bathtub with
brightly collored machine parts.

Ah. I know some of these.

"How many Brujah does it take to sharpen a sword?"

"Five. One to sharpen it, and four to put up enough of a fight
to make it worthwhile."

"How many Tremere does it take to sharpen a sword?"

Abhorrently unfunny. I'm sorry my friend, but the jokes are
perhaps left to those of your clan who claim themselves as artists.
The lack of originality in these makes them little more than rote
mantra while lacking the characteristic class of the tried and true
lightbulb jokes such as how many Tzimisce does it take...? One, but you
don't want to know what he changes it into.
In the last, you can see the classic characteristics of a timeless
joke. The play on both the mindset of the Tzimisce and even on the
bizarre powers of their kind. And to properly make a Tremere lightbulb
joke, you simply place Tremere where Ventrue is in the second joke,
Manipulate where dominate resides, and Ventrue where brujah is. There
we have a fundamental truth yet maintaining the lightbulb twist.
The key to a comedic saying is the fundamental truth that MUST
remain in the passage. As with all things that we must classify as
literary, jokes included, one must have the fact and the timelessness
of the statement.
There is, however, some degree of merit in the jokes. If you would
take my advice and perhaps refine these I can see a potential in you
that is very promising.

Humor is a foreign language to some. Some say we beat it out of
them at an early age, but the simple truth is that when you Embrace a
socially-maladjusted cult leader or megalomanic solipsistic Mage into a
Clan of powr-mad schemers and then hand them books of real Power for a
few hundred years to train them in Thumaturgy, you get some truly
steller displays of atrophied social skills.

Ventrue jokes friend Addison? Why of course...

Q: How many Ventrue does it take to change a lightbulb..
A: "I command thee Darkness begone."..."I said Begone" "I can't see a
thing!"... "Whats happening"..."We all need to stick together until this is all
over"... "Has anybody got any candles?".... "Why thankyou Lasombra".."Wait a
minute...."

I am afraid that is the best I can do whilst the prince's best gorrilas' tell me
that my haven looks very flamable and could ignite at the merest provication.

Adeu.

Q: How many Ventrue does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: 1 to fill out the forms for lightbulb aquisiton in triplicate, 3
more to look over the forms and make sure that they are all in proper
order. 15 to take the forms, photocopy each part, file them, write
reports in triplicate about the forms. 73 mailmen, clerks, foremen,
ect. to take the requestes, and get them to the aprover. A 7 person
comittie to aprove the form. 3 guys to get the lightbulb. 1 guy to
screw it in, 2 to hold the lader, 1 overseer, 3 union officials, and 1
OSHA person to make sure that its safe. 2 elders to see that
everything is going well, 1 Methuselah to see that no one is getting

Weather lightbulb joaks are funny or not. they are nesisary. If we in our
dark state of being lose the ability to laugh at the world, and outselvs,
we will truely become the monsters that the human kine think us to be.
Never underestimate the power of a good chukkle!

And so we see why it is that the Clan Brujah are not running the
Camarilla. Perhaps we should have chosen a less vague name -- I for one
have my doubts about our founder's name being "Brujah" in any case. Then
again, we'd only find something else to fight over. The correct colour to
draw the clan symbol in, perhaps. <g>

God with you, and watch your back,

With sadness, I have to report that one of the many consequences of a
conclave on the IOW recently was the death of Bart, as the demon in his
soul gained ascendance.

I would like to thank those members of the clan who, following his
regretable fall, voted me in as National clan head within the allied
domains - although I think spokesman is perhaps a better term.

Hey Davey, what the hell is the IOW and allied domains? Is this an
English thing?

Addison, Clan Brujah, apparently out in left field somewhere


(OOC) Is this in the FAQ?, well Addison prob. wouldn't know even if I
had read the FAQ.

IoW = Isle of Wight = small chunk of land of the south coast of England.
Recently played host to a *big* group of kindred (including me). Less
came back than arrived there. As usual.

Portsmouth is the major city on the mainland opposite, and it's where
you catch the ferry, unless you're a Gangrel and can turn into a bat and
fly across the Solent.

Hello Lucy

I did not think you were linked up!

Did you enjoy the IoW then? I thoroughly enjoyed myself - marrying
Satchel to Sophia La Reine was may fave bit!

Can you tell me any information about Dr Seth Clifton-Jones?

see you around and stay around forever!

Sorry to butt in, Rev, but I can tell you a reasonable amount about
Doctor Seth - although I have no idea how up to date it is (haven't seen
him for a while).

Yes. He thinks I'm untrustworthy. I think he's creepy. Typical Malk-Malk
