It takes so little to make him happy!
It says on the website Wikipedia that "The word 'albatross' is sometimes used metaphorically to mean a psychological burden that feels like a curse." Having to live up to two great accomplishments like that I imagine would be a curse!

Seriously, two thumbs up!
