I’ve been meaning to acknowledge and thank Ragdoll at My Tragic Right Hip for kindly recognizing us with the Thoughtful Blogger Award. In some circles, such an award is an oxymoron, like jumbo shrimp or compassionate conservatism. Not here. We are humbled by the recognition and will try not to let if go to our heads. This award is going on the mantle over the fireplace. Stay classy, Ragdoll.
