Thank You

To the Gentleman and the Jester - two titles well-earned.
These were once defined (I wish I could remember by whom) as "one who shows by example how to act" and "one who points out our faults and foilbles with a sword called 'humour'."
There was something further about being necessary roles in every society ...
Well, anyway, I'm glad that Grant and Jamie are recognized for their roles in our little society.
Congratulations.

Congratulations Jamie and Grant. Appropriate honours and well deserved.

These are kind of the scottish equivalent of the Yin and Yang, the concept of equally necessary balancing counterpoints:

Suave, debonair, well dressed, well behaved, the ultimate gentleman and ever gracious host, Jamie, and.... Then there is...

Well, Grant! I believe the more commonly used term in the days of court jesters was "the fool". Appropriate indeed. ;)
