a biblical name intended to be the original name of King David's son, Solomon. Jedediah is a wonderful figure who lives life by his own code of giving everything that he can while expecting nothing in return from the world. He embodied generosity as he invests himself to those around him with open ears, kind words, meals, finances, and his time--all of which are precious commodities to all of us. Generosity is how Jedediah shows love and it is felt by those in his life. Though he struggles with having his voice echoed back to him, his voice is powerful thing by which he expressed himself and impacts people in a positive way. Its tone is calming, its content full of life, and his laugh has the capacity to shift the energy of a room--like a whistling kettle on an otherwise quiet night. Connecting with others in genuine ways is Jedediah's passion in life. Very much the protagonist of this story, Jedediah's passion led to an exciting life in which he navigated its many tensions with courage and optimism--staying true to himself and seeing challenges as opportunities to learn and grow from experience.
Jedediah exudes big pp energy.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
