Really? Based on my social medial profile? I am honored by anyone who raves about me, but I'm skeptical at best of any award based on what I chose to put up on any social media site. So thank you IAHCP for the honor. Instead, send me a free year supply of Starbucks Coffee and we'll call it even. OK? Rather a mocha than a full page color anything.
