Scrabble players unite!

My friend Hillary and I have been playing Scrabble together since before we could talk. Okay, a minor exaggeration. Since before we kissed boys, anyway.

Last year for my dissertation defense, Hillary generously agreed to craft 3 foot-tall Scrabble tiles for each member of my dissertation committee--each would receive their 3 initials. Janee Hindman, with the initials JEH, won for points (13), but Eileen E. Schell had the most coveted letter of all: the S.

The mistake I made when asking Hillary to make these was not asking her to make AER (wimpy 3 points). Here's a picture of Collin's. How freakin' cool are these?
