Now, as Ptah as suggested...
Let's see if we can ask for a permanent smilie.
Those things, at least can be easy enough for memorials.

Like you, I thought it would have lasted a few more days.

The MFM Lounge -- how Jim would have loved the admins doing that for him!

I Lounged around more than I ever have.

I went to ATA too and asked for a shmiley.

I think he would have loved the temporary name change for the Lounge, but he also knew he wasn't the whole place - that it wouldn't be the Lounge without all of us.

I don't know if he would have been comfortable with a permanent renaming.

a cup of which is a comfort ... by looking at his journal or putting his screen name, in its long or short form, in DU search, .

The man passed into the next realm, yet still helps us feel a little less sad about it.




(thanks to Ptah, for the girlie drink toast smiley)
