Uhh...nice, but what was the award for? His website? His music?

At any rate, congratulations!

I'd like to say a big "Thanks" to all of you for the nice comments. When I sent the pic to Roy, I had no intention to search for any publicity...but Thanks, Roy, for the kind words!

Donny, NOBODY would consider me for any kind of award for my music! But there is life beyond music for me as I am officially working for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security...

Still, I am so thrilled to be a member of this forum, with so many nice folks as friends!

Kind Regards, Walter

Congratulations Walter on your achievement. I never have met you but anyone who posts all the Lloyd Green clips has to be a super guy. I would say that you are very deserving of the award. It looks like they even had a pretty lady to present it to you as well.
