Congratulations all recently promoted fellows!

Fimby, maybe you can search for a proper ship in here:

https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=496.0

All these ships should be sunken in year 90... :)

Aw, that's adorable!  Thanks, I'm very grateful.  And the title matters to me -- it appears in my profile along with "Troll Slayer."  (I actually would have preferred to keep "Forum-Skald," but you don't refuse the title that goes along with the honorable role of Content Moderator.)  My father is a retired US Navy officer, so I'm tickled by the prospect of being promoted to Admiral. 

If I tell you all to prepare to travel to Honolulu, Hawaii (where I spent much of my childhood), for the celebrations will that give you an idea of which Sunken Ship I intend to be the Admiral of?  No?  What if I say Pearl Harbor?

BTW, Fimby, I don't think we ever got a definitive answer on your choice of Sunken Ship.

Thanks!  I'm not sure how my father, the Commodore (actually Lt. Cdr. (ret.) Sunflower's Dad, USN) would take the news that I now outrank him -- let alone by playing with a bunch of faceless individuals on Teh Internetz -- but I'm thrilled!   :D
