Memorial Day is this Monday.

"This holiday commemorates U.S. men and women who have died in military service to their country." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_Day

If you see a service member this week take a moment and think, regardless of how I feel about war or the military this person has volunteered to possibly die for my country, my way of life, and quite possibly me.

This rings true not just for Americans but for anyone living in a modern democracy. Take a moment and thank them for their service.

Everyone,

The epic 6-day RangerCon XIII is now coming to an end. Having just gotten home after an 8 hour drive from said event(and several energy drinks still in me), I had time to reflect on what went down... Here's my RangerCon top 10 list:

10. "Fix me!"
9. Slayer's "webcam picture". (ZOMG where did it come from?!?!?)
8. Wally's RC helicopter addition!
*Holy crap I just realized I left it there!! :(
7. Weiner dogs.
6. Mansa's great hotel adventure. Fuckin' frisbee.
5. Excellent bathroom reading selection.
4. Senior no-pants. / Crotch-Moisture index
3. Great food!
2. Outstanding Con support, and hospitality from Wally and the ladies!
1. Good friends, fun games!


Thanks to everyone who attended - I had a great time... see you all in October for the next one. Add to this post - What were your favorite moments?
