Mat. Thank you, sir, for the acknowledgement. I was hoping I might see you on the night. Next time, perhaps.
Thanks also for this blog. You keep it lively. Of course, now you got me thinking competively about my Niggerati Power Ranking...
Hey David,
Great to hear from you, and once again congratulations. Yeah, I wanted to come down, but since they moved the awards back to DC I couldn't. Next time, though.
The door of the Manor is always open to you.
Best,
Mat
