@Jae Onasi and @Vil I know I owe you both the next sections in our common story-telling. Hopefully this weekend or maybe the next as youngest daughter has some surgery on Friday. Thank you for your patience!

Got em...she's nauseated anyways, poor thing. I feel for her. I'm allergic to narcotic pain meds so when I had my shoulder worked on I only had ice after the anesthesia wore of...that was, ummmm, intense.

It hurt a lot, people prayed which made a dramatic difference, the ice jacket helped, I lived through it. More importantly daughter is doing better this morning. Poor thing has the big boot on one foot and a smaller boot on the other since she's just over 5 weeks from getting that foot, which was much more complicated, attended to.

More cancelled flights and rebooking on other airlines. It would be cheaper at this point if they would just get me a rental car, but that’s not possible....need coffee!!!

update: coffee achieved, rebooked on another airline but checked bag has been sent walkabout by AA. No idea when/if it will return. Hopefully it will have some interesting stories when we are reunited!

It's been a year now! I joined RoH after playing a couple of years of SWTOR totally solo. It had been fun with the pub class stories, and figuring out datacrons and the like, but I wanted to see the group content--but I'm picky and wanted to do it with a good collegial group of folks. So, I interviewed a variety of guild reps and eventually found my way here. Thanks for all the fun in flashpoints and operations and RP! Looking forward to what the next year brings!

Really sucks when your bags make it before you do, and they secure them in the back, and then no one can find the person with a key..... glad you got back and reunited with your bags!

As a youngster on Memorial Day we would go to the local cemeteries and decorate the graves of those who in Mr. Lincoln's words had paid 'the last full measure of devotion.' For those of us in the Navy though the sentiment may be similar we have few geographic places to go to in order to honor the dead. A ship goes down in combat at sea and the grave is at best marked by a lat/long mark on a chart. So, it is left to the imagination, for the most part, to render honors.
This year I'm remembering in particular a chaplain who remained with the dying and wounded while his ship sank. The ship, USS Cumberland was lost not far from where I work in Norfolk. Chaplain John Lenhart was the first Navy Chaplain killed in action. For the historically curious, his story may be found here: http://archives.gcah.org/handle/10516/5745
"WE therefore commit his body to the deep, to be turned into corruption, looking for the resurrection of the body (when the sea shall give up her dead,) and the life of the world to come, through our Lord Jesus Christ; who at his coming shall change our vile body, that it may be like his glorious body, according to the mighty working whereby he is able to subdue all things unto himself. " BCP 1789.
