Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh the pressure!!  /grin.  See..Pallys ARE a useful sort!! :-)
Knowing when in the midst of battle to fight vs. pop off some heals is a
fine art of which we must always continue to be good students, and it is
honestly not a difficult thing to do once you watch the way in which the mob
fights back.  Doing it while being tank and main group healer certainly is
impressive to pull off.  We shall aspire for such greatness.  Nak and I duo
often, so it has helped us work on that skill (we haven't died duoing yet
/grin).  Keeping aggro off of you high level dudes consistently, well that
is quite another task ;-)

CONGRATULATIONS TO FLU AND GILDARR
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hugs,
Swayze the "I am no longer Nak's padawan" Pally :-)
