I just needed to give a shout out to Lee. He was in TX last week to present at a conference some research that he has been doing. While there they had the Forensic 4cast Awards. OK OK I know this is his podcast and the awards are put on by him but here is how it works. People in the field nominate people for different categories in which they might receive an award. The top 3 people, product or company with the highest nominations then go out for a public vote. The winner of the public vote then wins the award. Lee created these awards 3 years ago after I suggested it to him. Since then they have gained so much momentum and have actually become a big deal in his industry. This year Lee's podcast was nominated for Best Digital Forensic Podcast. Each week leading up to the actual awards ceremony he kept saying to me, dang it I'm winning or Oh man what am I going to do I cant win my own award. But I kept saying to him why not? He didn't cheat, he didn't vote for himself, he actually wanted someone else to win so it didn't look like a fix, he won it fair and square. When he left for TX on the Sunday night he said I'm going to give it to the runner up and just say they were first. But when he was actually presenting the awards he must have changed his mind and he did award it to himself also saying that his podcast will not be up for nominations next year. I have made a few suggestions for the awards next year which will make a huge difference. One thing is that it will bring in a lot of revenue for his podcast.
Lee does so much for us here. He works so very hard to make sure that we have everything that we need. He also does a lot for his industry and the Digital Forensics field. He has done so much research, is still in the process or developing software which will make the way they work easier. He is such a great husband and father too. I love him very much. He is truly the perfect eternal companion for me.
