Hope That We Can Break It Down, It's Not So Black and White

Congratulations to Mr. Andrew Tuegel for correctly naming "42" Coldplay as the Saturday Song of the Day.

I'm a bit late announcing this exciting piece of news, and hopefully my grandmother will not disown me, but I had to take time to congratulate my cousin, Ryan Andre, for winning (along with teammate Nathanael Kielt of Rutgers) the American Under-23 lightweight (under 160 lbs.) men's rowing pair event.
After winning the U.S. Under-23 championship, Ryan, who rows on the crew at the University of California-San Diego, represented the U.S. at the World U-23 Rowing Championships in Brandenburg, Germany. Although Ryan and Nathanael finished 5th in their first heat at the World Championships, I'm nothing if not incredibly impressed with his dedication and drive at one of the world's most unforgiving sports.
Also, it's official.

I'm never going to be the most famous grandchild.

I'm okay with that.

I think.
