Public figures, pfft.  The ones to admire are off doing whatever it is
they're doing, without shouting 'look at me' every five minutes.  Ok,
some have others doing the shouting for them (or at them), but still.

Right then.

Your wife, your mother, and your wife's mother.

Done.

Life-long supply of brownie points, until you do something wrong.

If the committee argues that they aren't 'public' figures, merely point
out that going outside to do the shopping (er, oops, stereotype warning!
Brownie points loss imminent!) makes them a public figure.  Well,
they're out in public, aren't they?

And surely you admire your wife more than someone who can run up & down
a paddock with a ball for a hour of so?  (brownie points saved!)

(I was going to add post a picture so we can admire her too, but perhaps
not.)
