Dr. Cherryhill's Award of Merit for Excellence in Excellency

Confession time...the Dr. isn't a great flyer. Oh, I take your planes. I like getting places quickly. But, I'm still not completely convinced of the combination of spit, duct tape, and voodoo that makes these large metal objects propel through the air. (Also, I gotta pay for a little bottle of booze, please).


Nevertheless, the first Dr. Cherryhill Award of Merit for Excellence in Excellency (all props to the Simpsons) goes out to the man with the (second) best name ever....."Sully" Sullenberger III--the pilot who successfully saved 155 people by successfully landing that damaged US Airways jetliner in the Hudson.
I'm not sure that anything I ever do in life will end up with the phrase "saved 155 people." What can you say to something like that--"nice work" or "great job" doesn't quite cut it. So here's a metaphorical salute to you, Sir. Thank you for all the work and training you put in to get to the point where you could achieve this feat.
