| non-breaking space

My acceptance speech for the Excellence in Concrete award

I don't know why I'm here exactly.
I'm not particularly concrete in my daily life.
Sometimes (and I'm not afraid to tell you this because
we're all friends here) but sometimes I can't get the automatic
doors at the hardware store to open.
I have determined that it is a fault in my composition.
Perhaps there is too much space in me and not enough concrete.
But, as I was telling Kevin earlier at the taco bar —
let's hear it for the taco bar — the nomination is really honor enough.
I didn't expect this.
