Wink The 2007 What Made You Smile Thread

What made you smile today?

This: http://www.blueman.com made me smile, giggle even. I didn't know that the Blue Man Group actually existed!!!! The whole concept seems so absurd I thought it had to be a creature of the Arrested Development Writers' imagination..

What made me happy (it was yesterday actually but I'm still happy today) is that I got playoff tickets for my very favorite team/sport in the whole world. Now they just have to win!!

Recovering from a lung effect causing heavy fever and Schüttelfrost (ague?) within only 3-4 days. So I feel way better than on Sunday/Monday. Thank god to litres and cans of green tea and that I didn't need antibiotics.

I'd just like to know one thing: If you hug a blue man, will you turn blue yourself?

hugging is fine, the blue contamination will only take place after kissing a blue man

Cool I have to say I never got into football over there until I was actually in amongst it and went to my first Tail gate party, such a cool day out.

I hope they go well this year for you, I've always wanted to go to chicago would love to get into the advertising there!

It's a great city - so much fun and different than any other big city I've been to (although winter's can be brutal). You should definatly visit if you ever get the chance - you're sure to have a great time (now I sound like the one advertising!)
Oh, and I have always enjoyed the game but there's nothing like actually being there (and the tailgate parties are awesome!!)

My cat made me smile today. He always meets me at the door when I come home from school. I like to do the Ace Ventura thing, where I jiggle the keys in the door. So by the time I open the door he's sitting there on the stairs purring like he swallowed an alarm clock.

Then he completely shuns me after I feed him. Go figure.

a few of my students told me i was an "awesome" instructor on their way out of class today. and that was AFTER i had them respond in writing to an article for 30 minutes.

sometimes it pays to have comparatively small class sizes at a large university...

Really, I did not know that, thank you for that, you've probably saved me a lot of embarrassment.

It's true that that's how the name started - I guess people felt that Chicago politicians were bullsh**ters. But it is pretty darn windy at times. One time the umbrella flew off my picnic table and landed in the middle of the street.
Anyways, today my daughter made me smile (as she does everyday!!)

Congratulations on the tickets, man.

This morning! I woke up and the sun was shining and the weather is perfect (even though it is hardly January weather) and the birds were chirping.

I used to hate days like this but now I cannot get enough of them.
