I would like to thank the Academy for voting us the most successful live thread. Without all of you, I could never have broken the 2000 post barrier. I want to thank God, my parents, my agent Mort, my dogs Sophie and Riley, and IBM for supplying all my computing needs for this to be possible.
I accept this award not just for me, but for all Freepers and redheads. I am the vessel for which all long threads can come forth.
Thank you, and God Bless America.
