Hi Matthew! I just saw this and wanted to thank you for the shoutout. In answer to your question, Ted writes:

After that, though, he and I emailed a couple times, resolved differences and set up an interview. He's a pretty cool guy, and I might not have met him without your help, so, again, thanks.

I think it's a step up from a lockout, 4th in the division, near last in the conference. And I would bet that those awards carry more merit than the BEst Music Video Award...
All that being said, GO CAPS!

Tell ya what, how's about we set up a ring right in the middle of the Mall and you girls can have your little slap-fight over who won awards from the more prestigious organization: the Information and Display and Entertainment Association or the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies.
