This one, though, I can get behind fully. And I like the way the citation was written. :-)
ETA: Lest there should be any mistake, *none* of last year's honorary awards seemed to me to be puzzling, foolish, or anything other than worthy. And while the citation I linked to made me smile and nod, several of the others caused me to tear up. Really, if at the end of my life I can look back and feel that I have accomplished as much, even half as much as any one of those six, I shall feel entitled to be very proud indeed. :-)
