Today I attended my niece’s five-year birthday party. I’ve actually been to all five of her birthday parties. I don’t think I have a perfect attendance record for anyone else like that.
The other day, I made some off-hand comment that Owen had been to more birthday parties in his life that I’ve been to in my life. Owen didn’t believe me, but then we started counting–
We’ve both been to all the parties each member of our immediate family has had, and we’ve been been to my niece’s (his cousin’s) five birthday parties. But while I’ve been to four birthday parties for friends, he’s been to at least seven. And just about a month ago, he attended the party of someone he hardly knew.
Maybe I should start a list for him.

So, by popular demand (including a phone call from my brother-in-law at a quarter to ten last night), I have decided to upload the footage of my time spent on the Oprah Winfrey Show stage. Here it is:
I am quick to note here that I do not have the copyrights for this footage. However, in an agreement I signed, I only agreed to not benefit financially off of my interview. So I just want to make that clear: I’m not posting this with the intent of making any money, and if any of the proper copyright holders do have an issue with my uploading it onto the WWW, please let me know and I will remove it.
Did I ever mention that my appearance on the show came with multiple limo rides, two free nights in fancy-schmancy hotel and a $160 room service credit? Yeah, I ordered four orange juices with my breakfast on the first morning. And five on the second.
This is the second time I have seen this so I owe you x2. Where do I send the money?
It would probably be best to just give it to me in person. No cash, though, sums of money that large make me nervous. Check or money order only.
