Oddly, I dont really watch TV except for when Im on the road. When Im on the road: The office, The Hogan reality show (seriously keeps me up at night when I should be sleeping) and Letterman. Yeah, the old guy.

Hey you are amazing! You totally inspired me at Pacific Lutheran University. Totally funny. I almost peed my pants. I've been trying the "and a goat" thing with my family, and all I get is funny looks. It wasn't just the comical entities. It was the message behind all that you had to say. You're right, I shouldn't be average, I shouldn't let other people's harsh words make me who they say I am. I just want to say thank you =].
I just bought and a goat tshirt. I remember when you came to Glasgow, Montana for our student council convention. You were out of 3 speakers the best one there. I honestly have never laughed that hard. ever. I also see your section in Seventeen magazine. Anyways, I just wanted to tell you that you are a great speaker. :]
Hey i just wanted to tell you that i still remember what you said when you came to upward bound. you are a great speaker and really know how to get people. its amazing how you have turned your life from something that could have been really bad into something that helps other people. your amazing and im going to tell branson to get you back.
oh and ps. no more aluminum foil in the microwave.
still living life crazy as if i were on drugs without being on drugs.
Thanks for adding me & a pleasure to have a new friend!
I saw you were a friend of Deepak Chopra's, so I thought you might be interested in a new healthy beverage and ground floor home-based business he's endorsing called Zrii, which features the healing Amalaki fruit from the Himalayas. I hope this finds you well.
Have a great week! Wishing you peace,love,and prosperity, Cesar Suarez Lake Worth, FL
