You're still a winner to us. :)

Just what he needs, another participation trophy. ;)

Sir Rodney:
You guys are nutty.   :)

True story for Thorsteinn:  My 10 year old son wrestles freestyle and was thoroughly roughed up at a tournament two weeks ago.  They handed him a medal for 4th place!   ::)

I was proud of my son's effort; the other boys were just plain better and more experienced.  I was very proud of my son when he was confused as to why he got a medal at all...

Yeah, I mean, if you're going to give a participation trophy, then at least be honest and make it mean something like a Marathon or 5K does.

Wait... those are more "congrats on being stupid enough to try, and determined enough not to die in the attempt" as I found out. ;)
