“Holy Carp”? **Emperor Penguin** , are you trying to summon **Polycarp**?

**Lynn** , my thoughts are with you as well. I, too, will be more than willing to sacrifice a bit of chocolate in your honor, harming no animals in the process. That or how 'bout we round up a few trolls, keep them safely confined until your return, and then sacrifice them?

Be well. You are loved and respected by a great many people, especially around here.

CJ  
(Well, at least “Lynn Bodoni” will look better on the church’s prayer list than “Polycarp”!)

Dang it! Where’s a mod when you need one? 😉 I’ll try this again:

I hope you are feeling better soon, Lynn. My thoughts are with you.

Actually, I think the best tribute to Lynn would be for the boards to go all to hell while she’s away, thus demonstrating how important her presence is to our continued well-being. I’ll start: **W00H0O!!/! U al 5UKK!!! lol!!!**

Pssst, you guys seem to be concentrating on what she told us **not** to do. We were specifically asked to

My mind is obediently fixed.

Help!

Get well soon, Lynn. It’s just not the same without you.

Mrrrrow! Health vibes coming at you from da Bronx, Lynn!

And thanks for the OP, Ed. The Board’s concern for its members and staff is one of its hallmarks.

Lynn:  
Remember:

You cannot “ban” Doctors and Nurses.

The guy that flips on the light at 3 a.m. to see if you were asleep is not a “troll.”  
Feel better. Hurry back.

Add my (somewhat late) good thoughts to a speedy recovery, and naughty thoughts toward the Potentially Badly Behaved.

Feel free to tell every hospital staff worker “Don’t be a jerk!!” 😃

Lynn, I hope you are doing well and I wish you all the best. I’m so sorry about this.

You are an amazing presence on the board and I will take one second to thank you for all of the time you spend devoted to the SDMB.

Much love,

Lorna
