JMS: Awards?
JBONETATI
You've won many awards for B5 and many of your other writings.
Which award means the most to you? Is there any one that you would really love
to be awarded?
Thanks,
Jan

The one that always means the most to me is the Hugo, because that one comes
from the fans, the viewers, not the critics, or the literary establishment, or
even from peers. That one comes right from the people who read your stuff, and
it is thus the most meaningful.

Where is the Hugo kept? On a mantle or under glass, etc? *8^)

If it was me, I would keep it on top of the cystern in the bathroom. After
all, that's one romo that most visitors are almost certain to go into at
some point.
BTW, What does a Hugo look like? Could you use it to hold the loo paper?
If not, you could have it as the centre-piece of an interesting soaps
arangement ;).

They are both on the fireplace mantle, surrounded by the B5 action figures, who
stand guard.

Looks like a V2 rocket on the launchpad.

Have you no respect? The indignity! :-)
I've given the Narn Bat Squad your address.
Knock, knock. WHAM! WHAM! WHAM!

Which action figures guard it? I'm guessing Sheridan & Delenn.

Who is guarding the Hugos and the action figures from the earthquake
g*ds who have a tendency to bring down all objects living on fireplace
mantles in California? I'd guess the action figures might bounce but the
Hugos aren't likely to do so.
[Question asked in memory of a visit from a friend from LA to my first
house in California shortly after I moved to the area. After showing off
the new place, my native Californian friend pointed to the hand-made
wine goblets on the shelf above my sink in the kitchen. It looked like a
nice display shelf to my East coast eyes. He asked where I thought those
goblets might be in an earthquake?
I removed the goblets after my friend's visit and replaced them with
some of the always expanding supply of cookbooks (only overwhelmed by
the always expanding supply of books and papers in sheer numbers in the
house).
Less than a year later the Loma Prieta earthquake (which measured 7.2)
landed all those cookbooks on vast disarray in my sink and floor. The
goblets were safe in their, newly bought, display case. They only moved
about 2 inches forward.
How are Hugos at handling similar faults in LA?]
Best,
Alyson

At the 1994 Conadian Hugo award ceremony, Anne McCaffrey professed a
bit of embarrassment at having to hand out such a phallic symbol, but
at least this time (she'd done it before), it had a maple leaf on it.
My recollection is that there is a Hugo award sitting on Gen. Ivanova's
desk in Sleeping in Light. It's now under glass on JMS's mantle.

Wow, I have heard about the Narn Bat Squad in passing but this is the
first real reference to them I have seen on usenet. Neato.
