AEGIS Award

I was sitting in my house months ago and I got a call on my cell phone from Steve in Suriname (That is a country just north of Brazil) and wanted to know where I had been because everyone on the EDIUS forums was congratulating me... "for what?" I asked... "for winning a AEGIS Award!" (an AEGIS Award is an award that is voted on by indusrty peers so to win one is to have those that work with and around you give you a big thumbs up)

I thought he was kidding and asked what the joke was ans he wasn't. My training video was submitted by the company that produced it (Class on Demand) and it won this award in the self paced training catagory.

I was floored to say the least.

I called Paul Holtz and he confirmed it and apologized for not letting me know. They were supposed to order one for me and I think they just forgot until I was told it was to late.

I E-Mailed the people at AEGIS and found out it was not to late so I ordered it myself.

I told Paul and he apologized and said the cost of the award would be in my nexy royalty check (it wasn't... oh well :))

This is the Award... it is pretty heavy! :) I placed it on our Entertainment center for all to see but somehow it ended up halfway behind a computer screen on the computer desk... I guess it didn't go with the rest of the room! hahahahahahaha
