WHOO HOOO!!!!! Oh this is the best news ever!
How excited is Jethro? This is amazing, truly. Mind you, he totally deserves it :)
Congrats!

Heidi the Hick said...

He's busting! He couldn't get to work today because the phone kept ringing!

I think he deserves! He warned me that it would be a tough category this year, and IT IS. It totally is. I really am not holding my breath for a win. I know I said that last year... but there's some heavy talent.

Ever heard of a guy called Ozzy? His engineer/ producer/ co-writer is up for an award. Soo...ummm.... yeah!

But heck, we're getting a free dinner in CALGARY!

dilling said...

WOOOOOOOOOOT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!

Ozzy who?

Biddie said...

I seem to remember some heavy hitters last year, too.
I think that he has a shot, I really do.
I am SO happy for Jethro.

CindyDianne said...

Yeeeeeehaaaaawwwww!!!!

Go Jethro!

And yay for free dinner!

Olly said...

Nothing beats a paid mini-vacation. Enjoy and contrats!

Heidi the Hick said...

Best part:

both of the artists that he put on his submission are also nominated.

(I still am on the verge of tears... I am an emotional roller coaster....)

Nicole said...

Heidi the Hick said...

I am jealous of me.

ppffffftttt!!!!!!!!!!

Bunny said...

katy said...

Biddie said...

I am SO fricking proud of him, Heidi. I wish that my Dad were here to see this. He would burst.
NOBODY deserves this more. Tell him that, ok?
Love, love, love you both.

Heidi the Hick said...

Biddie:

I like that Beetle, but don't tell him that. It'll just go to his head.

xo

Michael Colvin said...

Woohoo! Go Heidi & Jethro! :)

Therese Fowler said...

Damn straight!!!

'Course, for a guy who's been at it since 1004 (read the nomination profile) he ought to be tops. :)

LadyBronco said...

WOOT!!!!

That is Fantastic!!!

I hope he wins again!

Balloon Pirate said...

he's soo got it all over Churko and Chycki.

let the neighbors be jealous of THIS, mofos!

yeharr

Heidi the Hick said...

hahahahaha!


I dunno man...Churko & Chycki...they're pretty heavy...

the whole category is heavy. Serious talent. But the point is-- HE'S ONE OF 'EM!!!

As for the incredible length of his career, dating back to 1004 y'know, well he's paid his dues, eh?

I really need to find somebody to give a new profile to. The first sentence was lifted straight out of his website bio- which I wrote- and the last couple are just sort of cobbled together from last year.

He kept telling me he wouldn't be in this year. So I didn't do anything about it!

Lynn Sinclair said...

Too cool, Heidi!!! Congrats to the big guy.

Unknown said...

That's awesome. Same category as last year?

Wendy Roberts said...

Awesome news!!!!!

Anita said...

Woo Hoo!! How exciting! FABULOUS!!! Tell him congratulations for me!

Holly Kennedy said...

Very cool!

I live only 15 mins outside of Calgary. It's a fun place. You guys will have a blast!!!!!
I hope he wins :)

dilling said...

WOOOOOOTTTTT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTT
again!

Marni said...

That is AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!!

captain corky said...

Awesome!!!

Real Live Lesbian said...

Congrats! That's big stuff!

FOUR DINNERS said...

Isn't that where they have a stampede or some'at? Is it safe? What is it that stampedes? and why?

I'm an ignoramus. soz.

A free dinner? Now I understand. Food.

Heidi the Hick said...

I have got the biggest craziest perma-chest-pain right now.... just a huge combination of happiness and stress and excitement and confusion and pride and the pushing down of some depression that's trying to drag me down and wow...

If I thought I was on the verge of tears on Monday!

Just, wow.

Thanks, all of you for your congrats. This does feel really good.

He's been slaving away in this business for over 20 years and all of us in this family have felt it. My mother was damn near in tears when I told her yesterday about this second nomination. Last year, it felt like justification. This year, it just confirms everything. He's damn good at what he does.

Even if he doesn't win this year, I feel like he already has!!!
