Fans Honor Rachel Marie

Last week it was revealed that the honoree of Rachel's Graduation Gift, Rachel Maire, earned a full scholarship to Iona College. In response, some fans, most notably a one Patricia Callas, has created here own short film honoring Miss Paquin's achievement. 

When the short filmed premiered on You Tube, Steven M. Paquin came running to us - seriously he ran to our publishing office, no call, just ran their, in suit in all - shouting, "We were first! We were first!" 

After we gave Mr. Paquin a seat and a glass of water we asked what his thoughts were about his sister's achievement, to which he responded, "Who?" We explained the entire story to him, but he only spoke in mumblings of "What?", "I don't understand," and "But I'm the oldest." 

We then terminated the line of questioning. His confusion only made us confused because if he had no idea what we were talking about, why did he come running to our office screaming, "We were first!" Mr. Paquin never ceases to amaze us.

The other co-creators, Jacob Cote and Nicholas Cote, were far more coherent. Mr. Jacob Cote called the short film "brilliant," and remarked that "thankfully it won't have to compete against [their] film at the Oscars, because her film is a short film, and [their] film is anything but short." Mr. Nicholas Cote agreed and actually admitted that it is "better than [theirs]" because "it has brevity." 

When asked if Miss Paquin's achievement would have any impact on the filming, Mr. Jacob Cote said, "My only comment is: congratulations." However, Mr. Nicholas Cote was far more forthcoming, something that has been rare amongst the co-creators. He stated that before "[Mr. Jacob Cote] was scheming to film in Boston, but [he] think[s] that's out now."

Here is the You Tube link to the short film; however, it is also embedded below.
