Man, you just continue to amaze me. You didn't intend to enter the flowers challenge. Bang! Ribbon. You almost apologized for winning in the fireworks challenge. Your ribbon in magic & mystery came despite your own complaints about the technicals.

And now you drop a bug on your daughter and get a score that most would kill for.

We need to distill whatever it is you've got and give it out as an incentive to re-up membership. And I've already read your "how to win a ribbon thread," so don't refer me there. :)
