Dear Mrs. Degeneres,

I love your show and I admire you as one of my role models. I am 15 years old and I am very devoted to the game of Golf and devoted to making my high school golf team, which will be a hard task. A few weeks ago, the pool in my backyard got torn down, and it left an ugly patch of sand where it used to be. My family and I were talking one day about what to put there, and a great idea came to my mind. Why not put in a synthetic putting green so I could practice golf any time I wanted? Well, it sounded like a great idea at first, but I did some research and synthetic putting greens are way too expensive for our family to afford. My dad's part time job is in jeopardy so getting a putting green in my backyard seems impractical. I emailed various websites seeking help but they didn't respond. You are my last hope and I could really could use some help!!! Can you think of any ideas of how to reduce the cost?

Ellen, I would like you to join us on a trip to
Florida.Your invited to stay at our little vacation house with us.
We are taking our grandson with us, he's 11. We will be visiting Discovery Cove in Orlando. This is your chance to swim with the Dolfins and Stingrays.
I told my grandson that I would love to bring a friend of his with us. But the money will be a little tight for that at this time. His response to me was. That's ok grandma. I can make friends any place I go. How special is that?
we also plan to go on an airboat ride, maybe rent some wave runners, also go on a Pirate Ship.
if you are up to some giggles. Trip is planned for Aud. 2 to Aug. 16th.

Hi Ellen,
I write to you today because I was really touched by a guest that was on your show. I am a Southwest Airlines flight attendant and on my last leg of the night to Kansis City, I had a very special customer on board by the name of Alfred Williams. As he boarded, he was smiling from ear to ear holding a great big check from your show. My heart swelled as he shared with me the same story about his life that he had shared with you. I haven't been able to stop thinking about his great smile and I would like to offer another gift to him to make his smile even greater. My husband is a well established dentist in Utah and we would love to fly him to Salt Lake City on Southwest Airlines to give him a brand new smile compliments of my husband and I. I wonder if you would extend this gift and invitation to Alfred. Just tell him it is from his Southwest Airlines flight attendant friend Cindy. Thank you so much and I hope to see him again. Cindy

Hi Ellen! My name is Lindsay, I am 15 and I live in Toronto, Ontario. I know you here this all the time but you are the best! More people in the world should be like you. Making people laugh is a wonderful gift so don't ever lose that. You always make me laugh everytime I watch your show. I think that it's really great that you have kids on the show showing their amazing talents they have. One of my favourite episodes is the one where you called a mom and sent her and her three autistic chidren for one week and a night to stay in Cinderella's castle. That was so nice I sat in front of the TV and cried. I know one day I will go to one of your shows and laugh my head off. I really wanted one of your 800th episode iPods until I could go to your show.

I know how much you love animals and i have a story that i think you would love. I am a woman in a wheelchair who uses a venterator part time and oxygen full time but that does not stop me from saving abused animals. A year ago last December someone brought me a very abuse part Jack Russel puppy to find a good home for. I soon found out she was not fully weaned so i ended up feeding her soft food my hand and she slept on my chest at night. When she was healthy enought I had her fixed and got all her shots. We named her Sugar plum. Sugar got very healthy and fast. one day she got out the door and within minutes we combed the area with no luck. My personal assistant/driver had eye sugry and could not drive so a friend of mine went to the local pound and found her. The pound said that if i got there my the end of the day with the paper work they would give her back. We got there with the paper work and they had already adopted her out. I begged them to give her back and explained my problems of gettting to the pound sooner, they basicly said tough. I immediately called our local news NBC station problem solving team. They went to action to no avail so they interviewed me. When the sement went on the air saying the local pound would not give me back Sugar the local community gave an out roar of protest. The station got flooded with e-mails, the local pound got flooded by phone calls and so did the Mayor's office. I was touched and pleased that strangers were fighting for me to get Sugar back. The station did a second interview and suprised me by bring Sugar back. Sugar was so happy she jumped in my lap and started licking me until she knocked my oxygen tube off. The pOund had fixed her again and gave her shots agin even though we showed them the paper work that it had already been done. She almost died from it. I rushed to my vet and it cost me $300.00 to save her. Fornately a kind man from my church paid for it. Sugar is now well and healthy. She is happy most of the time but i do believe she has flash backs because she is easily scared. Sorry this is so long but it needed to me told. thank you Genell

I just read a book you would love-- if you haven't heard of it. The name of the book is "That Quail, Robert" author is MaRGARET sTANGER. iT was written in 1966. A family found a quail egg, put it on the counter and IT HATCHED!! Don't know if there are others who have had this experience, but the book is a delight. The idea is a delight- story for your show??

THanks for your time

Hi Ellen, I notice when you have games on your show you never choose a male to participate. What's up with that?

Hello Ellen,

I watch your show all the time. No matter what kind of mood I'm in you can always crack me up. My son once told me when I was correcting him in a loud tone to just go watch Ellen. I had to laugh.

I have a 19" TV in the living room that is about to give out. I would love to see you in person instead of seeing you on the small screen.

If you are every in Charleston SC please look me up. I would love for you to attend a fund raiser for my cousins wife Robin Lobosco. She needs a Kidney Transplant. It will be at Charleston Maritime Center Sunday June 22, 2008 12:00 - 8:00pm. Ms. Robin was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Disease. Although she has been insured since 2002, the insurer is not providing coverage for a kidney transplant. We are trying to raise money for her life.

Please attend

Dear Ellen,
My name is Cristy Smith and I work for Westbrook Health Setrvices here in Parkersburg West Virginia. Westbrook does many things but I work in a residential home with 3 mentally handicapped men. Now these men have down syndrome, autism, etc. They are however the sweetest guys I have ever met. Each one of them has certain programs to stick to and part of their program is to go to a Day Time Program 5 days a week. Here they are with others like themselves. Now granted everyone doesn't have the capability to play the Neos, but 2/3 of my home does. I think it would be great for these boys to have this in their Daytime Program. Westbrook is funded through the state so things like this doesn't happen for them everyday. I hope you will consider these boys. For more information on Westbrook you can visit www.westbrookhealth.com
Tahnks for your time!!!! Cristy

Ellen, I am writing you about the NEOS GIVE AWAY not for me, but for a whole town. I live in WaKeeney, Kansas and there isn’t much for young kids to do around here. The small town is trying to put in a theatre; witch will also include a game room, not only used for children, but could also be used as a “coffee shop” for senior citizens, a meeting room, for businesses or family get-togethers, and a stage for community plays and forums. The game room would be a great place for the NEOS to go, it will allow the kids to play and exercise at the same time and that is what parents are looking for. The town is working on getting donations and obtaining numerous grants and the NEOS and anything else you could help us with would just be one more step closer to getting it done.
We need this theatre for a safe place for our children to go to and a place for the community to use. This is something the whole town could us and appreciate. We have to travel over 30 miles for any kind of these activities. I would love my children to have somewhere to go and play and enjoy themselves, especially when it is cold and or rainy outside. WaKeeney is working so hard to better itself, and being a small town it makes it harder to come up with the money and anything you could do to help would be much appreciated. I was born and raised in this small town and only wished there could have been something like this for us kids to do growing up here, but now I have a chance to help do something for the future children of this town. I have already donated and now I hope we can just come up with enough to get the job, theatre, done.
I love your show and how you have helped so many people out. If there were more people like you out there I believe we would live in a better world. If you can’t help our town out that is okay, but I just hope the place that gets the NEOS needs something like it as bad as we do. Thanks again for helping so many people and towns out, and good luck finding a good place for the neos.
Thanks Amanda and the town of WaKeeney.

Dear Ellen,
I saw the show today that featured the Neos. I teach Kindergarten at King-Chavez Academies, a charter school in San Diego. We desperately need the Neos.

In February our kindergarten playground was removed due to code violations. We have been waiting patiently for our new playground to be built, but it's projected that the equipment won't be in until June, the end of the year!

Although the director and staff have created activities for the children to play with during their recesses, these are sedentary activities such as blocks and art. Other than P.E. once and/or twice a week, there are 120 kindergarteners who've not been able to run and jump and play for three months!!

Imagine an afternoon with 20 five-and-six-year-olds who have not had a chance to shake their sillies out. Learning time can be quite the challenge.

We, six crazed kindergarten teachers and five unnerved support staff, would be ever so grateful and the kids would LOVE this wonderful opportunity to PLAY!

It would be such wonderful memory for them to take from their first year of school and not the memory of an empty playground, and the knowledge that they never got to play on the new kindergarten equipment because they had moved on to the first/second grade playground. The grins on their faces and joy in their play is how I would love to remember the end of the 2007-08

Thanks for everything. I love your show.

Best regards,
Chet Sewell

Hi Ellen,

I have a few miscellaneous things to talk about. First of all, I think your show is great. It's funny (of course), you have great guests, I absolutely love any and all of the animals on your show, and your show just makes me feel happy!!

I do think I should kind of "caution" you to steer clear of the remarks pertaining to your relationship with Porsha (spelling). Let's please remember this is a CLEAN, family-oriented show, and I wouldn't want to see the same thing happen that happened with your sit-com a decade ago. I like it being clean, and I don't have kids!! I get so tired of EVERY show being about sexual relationships. I don't mean to be critical, and I know it must be difficult to not talk about the love of your life, but it seems the first two or three years you didn't, and as time goes on, there's more and more talk of your relationships.

Please, this summer, when you have all re-runs, don't play a show that played just two weeks previously. There are a lot of teachers around the US who have summers off, and we'd like to see shows from the winter. Shows that weren't on over the Christmas holiday. Maybe that's a lot to ask of you?!

And while this is off-subject, I'd like to reply to "Anonymous" from April 26. I feel the EXACT same way you do; it starts getting old when no one does anything for you after you just give and give and give. I do think people definitely start to take advantage. I do wish you the best.

Thanx for listening, Ellen. I think you're awesome!!!!

Dear Ellen:
I really enjoy your shows, and I try to watch every day.
You are always doing nice things for people, I
am writing to see if you would consider helping
a deserving senior citizen. I am the assistant
director of the Bath County Senior Center. We
are planning on going from our very remote section
of Virginia to Pennsylvania in July. The County
of Bath is giving us each $200 towards our trip,
which is $279. Some of our Seniors cannot come
up with the extra $79. Would you possibly consider "ADOPTING" one or more of our seniors???
I know that this is a long shot, but I am praying
that you will read this and can help us out.
I really love it when you call Gladys. She sounds
like a really great gal.
Congratulations on your 800 shows. Keep up the
good work.
Thanks for your consideration.
Love,
Katie Smith

Dear Ellen'
NEOS GIVE AWAY--I would like you to consider ST.MICHEAL'S SCHOOL. This is a residental school for children who have problems--either at home with their families or because of other issues. e
I work as a nurse there. The children are wonderful, sometimes I wonder how they manage with all the disappointments they have had to deal with. The school is always looking for ways to keep the children active. I think the NEOS game would be great. You would have to check with the Director to be sure that this would be appropiate for the facility..
Thank you for any consideration you may give..
I love your show & all the good you do. God bless.............Love Ya......Linda

Hi Ellen,

I watch your show everyday. I live near Chicago, and I'm excited that you are coming to Chicago soon. I entered to get VIP tickets but never recieved them yet. Would you please please please...pick me!!!!!

When you are in town, I recommend for you to visit Millinium Park and take a picture of your reflection off the "Bean" with Chicago's buildings in the background. That would be awesome!!!!!!

Hey ED i am from Rockford Illinois, and I wanted to thank you so much for doing amazing shows lasting an hour long,every week day I almost never stop laughing. No doubt that is definately your talent.There is one thing I would like is to hear from you, what is your best advice you can give in life? Some things in my life has gotten me depressed and it gets harder and harder to see the good in my life. I would love to hear from you... best reguards ~colie

I watched your show with Dr.Dyer. I agree that kindness makes you feel good and have tried to help people all my life. However there can come a time when this does back fire. Because it is a chemical reaction to thought process. If you never have a kindness done for you in return (even though your own act is done without expectation)you start to spiral down from that feeling of being good. I have always put others first and strived to make others feel better. There comes a time when you involuntarily start to think you are not good enough because other than when doing for others you don't feel good. We all need some type of validation in our lives. When you get none, little pieces of you die. I will never stop trying to help others because my empathy towards others is not a choice but my natural being.
You, Ellen, do always make people smile and your joy in life shines through and is so real.
you are one of those special people

Dear Ellen:

I would watch your show everyday if I could. I have been working the night shift and it is very difficult for me to stay awake in order to see you. You don't come on till 10:00 am in Cleveland, TN. I was wondering if there is any way I can get a TiVo so that I can watch you whenever I want.

I think you are one of the best talents on this planet and your show is one that is very unique. You have some of the best guests on your show. What I have found to be very rewarding is how you take notice of just ordinary people who have done extraordinary things for other people.

I would love to be able to attend one of your shows, but even if I did get tickets, I wouldn't beable to make it there because of a transportation problem. I am 51 years old and am still raising two teenage sons.

Ellen, I really love your show. Keep up the good work. I believe you will be on TV longer than Johnny Carson was.

I just wanted to comment, on the comment you made about the grammer correction your Mom made the other day. The one where you were showing a video on "Mily and her friends dancing". I'm sorry to say but you were correct and your mom was wrong, it is "her friends and not she friends".
If you use "she" you are talking about Mily herself (first person). As in "She" was dancing in a video with "her" Friends. "Her" friends are used in the sentance as a Possession, "as the hat belongs to her (Mily)" NOT SHE!!
It really sounded silly when you said it on air, and yes you do have yes people or someone would have caught the mistake. LOL

Ellen ~

I've enjoyed your comedy for years & your show never disappoints.

The other day, I was watching your 800th show (congrats!) and I heard you say something that stopped me dead in my tracks. You said with a huge smile "yes, I'm engaged, I've been engaged for a long time...I can't wait until it's legal to get married"

I thought that was a horrible thing for any person to ever have to say.

Although I disagree that 'marriage' is defined as being between a man & a woman, I guess in some ways I've come to understand how some people may view it as such. And although I thought it was sad that it was necessary, if a vote to 'legalize' gay marriage was the only way to fix it, then so be it. And when prompted, I've voted to do just that.

Despite the fact that I'm not gay, I don't see why anyone's basic human rights should be denied - so long as they're good, decent human beings - just because someone else has decided that who they choose to love is 'inappropriate'.

Each day on your show, you promote being good to one another, laughter & doing the right thing. Your tireless efforts to raise money for charity & how you treat people are an inspiration to us all. You are not only a role model for how women should be, but how people everywhere should be. And I just don't understand why you're not considered 'equal' simply because you're gay.

I wish you well & I hope society realizes the error of it's ways soon.
