He's an honest-to-goodness college graduate! :smarty: :cheers:

And a second-lieutenant in the US army, now, too. I only got teary-eyed once during the ceremony. *sniffs*


edited to reflect his other accomplishment.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Congrats :cheers:
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Does that mean he has to go back to telling Siege what to do?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Until he is fired by Hans.

 :cheers:  Good job!  Now for the hard part:  stretching grad school out for six years or so.

Makes me feel old.  At least Lotus and Nek aren't here to rub it in.

Congrats I guess.  Don't wind up in the next Tailhook.
PDH!
