R. Rich Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 Let me be the first to say: Who is Kevin Flowers? Congrats R. Rich! I even read your blog (which I never do). Your admiration and pride show through. Wonderful award for your entire family. 276237[/snapback] Thanks, but I can't even try to take any credit. It really is all his. I'm just hoping I can attend the banquet for the award, which is in Atlantic City. I'm not sure if it's open to the public or not, but if it is, I'm there. When my Mother became a member of the SES (Senior Executive Service) at Social Security, there weren't any family members allowed to that ceremony, but since it was at the White House and was conducted by then-VP Al Gore, I guess there were security concerns. Even though there are a number of high profile media people who are getting awards, I wouldn't think that security would be so much an issue that the public, especially family members of the honorees, aren't allowed to attend.

If not, find the largest waiter's outfit that you can and sneak in. It warmed my heart to read hogboy's comments in your blog. He does have a heart after all.
