Last summer we received a phone call from the Department of Justice requesting medals commemorating the fallen police officers and firefighters who died trying to rescue people during the 9/11 attacks.

When they did this in the 18th century, it was fun and the purpose was to make the crowd have fun. ... If you didn't make the crowds happy, they wouldn't throw any money in your hat. 'Punch and Judy' hasn't lasted 300 and some years because it wasn't fun to watch.
