Awww!  Very sweet!

It was worth a wound–it was worth many wounds–to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation.

That would really be awesome. Let's hope for it (I'm sure his work will be worth it)

But the thing is, we've taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that's left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact. (Miss Marple)

Sorry, but in light of the above post I can't resist:  My amazing sister, ~~~, has won an Emmy!

It was several years ago and in a writing category.  I don't want to say more as that could reveal my real life identity...unless you want to offer her a job and then I'll be happy to communicate with you.

You need to buy her the T shirt to wear now  .

Yes, I am very proud of her.  Dare I say I'm f...  No, but you all can think it!   

The interesting thing was that when I finally saw the real Emmy award (my sister lives in LA; I don't), it was much bigger than it appeared on TV.  The actual statue is about 18 inches tall.  It's also very heavy.  But it looks gorgeous and I hope Martin wins one, too!  (Just added that so I wouldn't be completely off-topic!    )
