Okay, okay...it wasn't like that. I thought I was going to have stuff to carry me through recovery, but I didn't get that far. Nope. I just had 2 surgeries. One got moved up by a month because, apparently, I'm a "fast healer". Not Wolverine fast. I'm like that hero who has a 2 for Healing on a Marvel trading card. My recovery has primarily been chillin' in a recliner and having a tough time being mobile. Then, I got a call the day before my birthday, from the doctor, aski

Patrol Logs were a common thing with early RLSH in the early 00s and 10s.  Usually this was done on a blog.  This kept RLSH encouraged to go out repeatedly so they could write up more content.  It also allowed anyone a little insight on what RLSH were doing and provided a "history of action". Some might claim that they were inspired by Rorschach from ‘Watchmen’ or by The Tick’s monologuing, but it does trail back to Dr. John Watson who, in the stories, was responsible for tel

Well, I thought it would be fun to have a voice for the RLSH who typically run unknown. I've tried for two months to get feedback for the next 'Notes From The Rooftops', which resulted in nothing for September and October. Now, there's nothing for November.
