The Den Of Darth Swede

Uh, oh. Guess that means less time on IRC, huh?

lol, Dan. Ron, I'm glad you decided to join! :)

Glad to see you here pareng Ron, are you still the biggest Pinoy Lutheran out there?

LPC

Thanks for the add, TSwede

Ron, Welcome to the Trail! What you wrote here is very much me also!

(I am an adult Lutheran convert from mostly a non-denominational background so I can recognize something non-Lutheran faster than most Lutherans.)

Ron,

Hi stranger, how is Wichita. It has been too long since we have spoke, I hope you and Erica are well. We are getting settled in here in Georgia

Tom Wayman

It's good to here from a friend in the Wichita area. How are you both doing? It was good to read that Erica was involved with HT, how about you? Any extra church related activities? Rebecca managed to fall into the chior director's position at the only LCMS congregation in the greater Savannah area just three months after arriving in 2006. So much for singing together, but I wouldn't have it any other way. She is really a great director, Christ first, music second.

Greetings Ron,

My first exposure to Kansas was my vicarage in Topeka form 2002-2003. Had a nice time getting to know Pr. Brockman.

Next time I'm in Wichita we should grab a beer.

Rev. Zielinski

Yeah, Ron, as long as we aren't ourselves, we'll fit right in!

May I ask as to what you are reffering to? If there are any misunderstandings, let me say this: I have no intention of moving anyone away from the Lutheran faith.

I just posted it here.

Thank you for becoming my friend. Aren't you the terrible Swede bolgger?

Ron,
Good to know you. MY Dad served in WWII in the Navy until his heart attack(from rheumatic fever as a boy) on USS Enterprise CV-6. I served. Now, my oldest son is a Coast Guard Helicopter pilot.

My Air Force knowledge is really very basic. Our missions are totally different. When I retired things were changing organizationally in the Navy and Marine Corps so it was a full time job to keep up with that.

I know this: The Air Force flew my Marines where we needed to go, and brought me to and from Gulf War I when my Mom died. And, at Torrejon, Spain, the Air Force had some great chow ready for us travelers. Ron, to you, a big thank you from me.

I'm not exactly sure what the Latin is--and the letters are an abbreviation from the Latin--but in essence, it means I'm on the LCMS clergy roster and eligible to receive a Call, but I'm not serving a congregation right now. It roughly translates into "candidate for the Holy Ministry".

Thanks for the invite, Ron.

Hi Ron, sounds like we have a few things in common. I'm an adult convert from atheism and a mechanic with a penchant for computers and reading. Dave

Hi Ron,

iijohnai is a Japanese/English play on words. I would say it is pronounced ee-john-eye which sounds like a Japanese slang word meaning something like "that's good, isn't it?" My first name is in the middle.

So what kind of avionics work do you do? I'm a flight line tech at Duncan Aviation in Lincoln so I work on just about every imaginable avionics system ever installed in a corporate jet.

And yes, my wife and I love Car Talk!
