Donald K. Cherry March 27, 2008

Nice finalist, Carol! Hard to believe you have only been at BP a short time and already have 2 finalists! That's what I call really nice work! Have a wonderfully nice day! #5707038

Carol Sawyer March 27, 2008

This is why I have blocked you from my e-mail!! I know how much you hate the word nice beacause you have told me this before, when I made the mistake in saying this on one of your images. I am glade you think this is a nice finalist as you called me a copycat. unreal!!!! #5707097

Donald K. Cherry March 27, 2008

Gee whiz, I try to compliment you on this extrordinary finalist and you lambast me for using the word "nice". I happen to have re-evaluated the word nice and think it is an ok word to describe images that are truly nice. I really do think this is a very nice image and was definately worthy of a finalist. All your hard work and perserverance is definately paying off with many recent editor's picks and finalists and I'm very happy for all your success. Keep up the great work and the sky's the limit for you! Have a very "nice" day. #5707943

Carol Sawyer March 28, 2008

Don,
Now your tune has changed with the word nice!! Oh well! I have told you that I appreciated all your help since I started at BP. Just could not take your insults any more on my images through the e-mails you sent me. I tried to be your friend! Thank you for your ending words. #5709198
