Coat-of-Arms

This will serve as my official coat-of-arms until I can have my own design made by some artist who's better than me. As I'm very poor with Photoshop, this is the best I can do for myself (my thanks to Wikipedia for the default coat-of-arms image for cardinals and the Bobone-Orsini family crest).




I adopted the Bobone-Orsini family coat-of-arms (this one was actually coat-of-arms of Pope Nicholas III, one of the three popes coming from that illustrious family) since I justified the use of the riddle-name "Cardinal Bobo" by adopting the persona of a real Cardinal Bobo, namely Giacinto Cardinal Bobone, who was also recorded as "Bobo" (see http://www2.fiu.edu/~mirandas/bios1144.htm#Bobone for more details of this already obscure Pope.) Though I have my personal interpretations for the elements of the Bobone-Orsini coat-of-arms, you can find the original meanings for yourselves in the Internet.

However, the motto "Deus Est Mea Libertas" is my own, and its meaning has been discussed in my article "God Is My Freedom," http://cardinaloftherevolution.blogspot.com/2010/11/god-is-my-freedom-c-october-2010.html.

I do deserve a coat-of-arms. Save your objections for now.
