How many people were employeed at that place? Did they seriously give out trophies to every one of you? That can get very expensive!

And the bronze medal is great!
And shhhh....if they want to think I'm a guy....it's okay.

I think Maybe Boinky is a very bored self-help group leader. Thanks for the boost of confidence, man. I'm going out tomorrow a new man.

If there's sarcasm meant here, I'm going to choose to ignore it!

Bored? Nah. I would love to be some sort of self-help leader. Maybe I could give Dr. Phil a run for his money? Go forth and earn a trophy, medal or a pat on the back for a good job!

Yup...I figured as much! Can't do things that crazy and not end up with a few broken bones and a lot of great stories!

Wow! That had me almost biting my nails! How many broken bones has he had from doing that sport?

Sweet!
Do you always have them hanging up? If so....an extra pat on the back for you! I like it when people are proud of their accomplishments!

That's wonderful!

(yeah the actually have those!)

Oh, I believe it! I personally am too chicken to let someone purposely shoot anything at me, though!

That's great for your son!
I guess it's true....you always want what you don't have. I have a handful of medals...but want a trophy. He has a bunch of trophies and you'd rather have medals.

Of the cake?

It's not silly. How many of the people in the world can say they won a trophy? Much less for baking a cake?

Got pics?

Shouldn't this story be in the medal forum? lol

Gold, Silver, Bronze...colors don't matter. Good efforts do. Good job to both of you!

Very cool just the same!

How did the S&TA cheat?

Very nice! trophy poll!

That's great!
But wasn't it extra special because she came and FOUND you to give it to you?

You go girl!
You got a trophy for a cake?

50 miles in less than 24 hours... not an easy task!

WOW!

You make me ashamed that I barely walk a few miles a day on most days....

First, let me thank you for putting your life on the line so that people like me can have freedom!
They all sound amazing! Good job. I'm guessing that the ruckmarsh one was for fastest time?

That's great!

That is an awesome story! I'd be carrying it around forever too!

Pfff...it doesn't have to be a mantle. It can be a bookshelf, the top of your desk, dresser, or anywhere else. The point is to take pride in your accomplishments!

That's pretty cool!

Aw, come on...I think those things are great! Good job!

And the beatboxing one is very unique!

Good job! Do you have them ALL in your office?

WTG! I'm not letting anyone shoot ME with paintballs. Those things HURT!!

I'll start. I was in the band in high school. Played clarinet. Went to festivals and the like. I still have blue and red ribbon medals in a box somewhere.
