WOO-HOO!

Thank you so much for this honor. I can hardly conjugate verbs! It
humbles me that my suggestion was chosen out of so many other
imaginative and incredibly worthy suggestions. Even in my wildest
fantasies, I would never have frantically prayed for this distinction.
I would like to offer words of gratitude to my Mother and Father for
producing me; to Mr Osborne, my fourth-grade teacher, a giant of a man,
who stood over my desk, red with apoplectic rage, thundering about the
importance of imagination; but most of all to those lovely ladies whose
wit and talent stand nonpareil in the annals of Renaissance Festival
fame, whose warmth and grace are so abundant as to make them an utter
delight with which to share a stage, and whose beauty steals furtively
into my dreams, over and over again. You love me... You REALLY love me!

XOXOXOX
