For fun.
    I've been thoroughly surprised by everything I've ever received  because
I was interrupted from doing something.  My lady/wife can tell you better
than I what awards I have; the thoughtfulness and intent of the awards
always impressed me more than the objects (though I do value them highly)
and the so-called "Face Time" (fun, though!) combined.  Should I ever
receive another, I'll likely be surprised again.  Not that I'm dense or
slow, so much as 'awards' are something that I just don't think about.  I
guess just "having fun" is all my brain cell can handle comfortably.

Ever in service,
