Compliments Gallore!

Today is National Compliment Day!! It is also Belly Laugh Day, but that is hard to celebrate on a blog page. So in honor of National Compliment Day, I am digging deep inside of all the good inside of me to celebrate and lead the way for this holiday! I would have sent you all cards, but Hallmark doesn't see today as a severe money making holiday so there are no sections of cards for today, nor candy or balloons to send.
  1. To my friends in La Crosse (and from Decorah who drives to LAX)- You make crappy rehearsals and concerts such as this much much more tolerable.
  2. To our conductor in La Crosse.... you... um.... you ended about 30 seconds before 10:00 last night which was appreciated.
  3. To my mom - your weight loss last year has been my inspiration this year. Doubt I'll ever run marathons like you, but at least I can keep up with you on a short run.
  4. To Britney - I still think you're cute (CALL ME!!)
  5. To DA BEARS - I like everyone but Rex... good luck next week, someone's wedding depends on your performance!
  6. To Rex - you're not as bad as Ryan Leaf!
  7. To my Cyclone BBall Team- you guys played really well against Kansas, but fell off the face of the earth since then:( You have potential, make me proud!
  8. To the WNBA - you got game. Enjoy your last few seasons of existence.
  9. To the guy at Kwik Trip who sold me my winning PowerBall ticket - I'll give you $100 for being nice even though you were swamped with idiots buying PowerBall tickets.
  10. To the cute girl that runs on the treadmill every morning at the RAC when I'm there.... you're very cute!
  11. To Bush - I didn't watch you last night (nor was I able to play State of the Union Bingo) so I can't really knock you for your speech. But I will complement you on correctly pronouncing "Saddam" which is more than your daddy ever did!
  12. To my travel partners in crime for Mexico.... this is easily the highlight of 2007 for me and I can't wait!
  13. To Elvis - you're still the king to me and many others. If you are indeed on an island somewhere with Jimmy Hoffa - I hope you have your guitar with (and new strings)!
  14. To my bowling buddies - half of you are about as unpredictable and crappy as I am every week making it easier to show up after throwing a 74.
  15. To God, my creator - you make anything possible and having faith in you is the easiest way to get through my days.
  16. To the oil companies - after making more money than any group of individuals ever needs to see, you are now losing money so millions of us can enjoy gas under $2 a gallon. That's awfully nice of you (while it lasts)
  17. To Al Gore, inventor of the internet - you give me something to do about 12 hours a day!
  18. To Wes Craven - I enjoyed your Freddy Kruger movies as well as your Scream series. You have a great way of making horror flicks fun!
  19. To the Hawkeyes - you still suck more than any one else out there, but you don't suck as bad today as you did yesterday (for some odd reason)
  20. To my millions (AND MILLIONS) of fans who read my blog every morning - thanks for giving me a place to "express myself" and allow my right brained creativity to be used every morning before it gets stifled by Corporate America.
Song of the Day - With video goodness, it's time to bring this song back and enjoy the good laugh that goes with it!! And yes, I'm wearing my shirt from eBay today!!

Video of the Day - I watched The Weatherman with an open mind (and not really knowing what it was about). Remember that I hate Nicholas Cage probably as much as any other actor (or lack-of-acting-person as he would be termed). I wasn't impressed with him (as usual) but I was intrigued by the story. I just didn't like the ending and overall thought it was a waste of a good potential movie.

Webpage of the Day - A new "Idiot Test"... how'd ya do? remember to think laterally

I got 18 on the Idiot Test. I maintain that number 15, "A doctor gives you three pills telling you to take one every half hour. How long would the pills last?" could be interpreted as asking the effective duration of the pills, in which case the answer would be half an hour, because you have to take one every half an hour. This is why I didn't do well on the SAT and the ACT!

Also, I missed number 17 because I'm an idiot.

By the way, I am thankful for Adam's blog!
