The Big Gun Speaks

Just got a phone call from A- here at work. I thought I detected a trace of excitement in his voice but I couldn't be sure.

"Daddy, what's your email?"
"What do you want to know that for?"
"I found a picture on the web and I want to show it to you."
"Do you really need to send it to me now?"
"Yes, I really want you to see this picture."

I figured it had something to do with his just-closed production of The Will Rogers Follies. I gave him my email.

"Can you access your email from work?"
"Sure. I'll check it now."

I hit the "Send/Receive" button. Nothing.
I hit it again. Still nothing.
I hit it a third time. "Incoming," I told him.

He wanted me to see this.

The big gun has spoken. UVA - his putative first choice - was the one school we thought would be most difficult for him to get into. Seems we needn't have worried.

We heard from Virginia Tech and James Madison over the weekend. We heard from Michigan and Maryland earlier. He's five for five.

Words can't express how happy I am for my son.
