Ellen,
I'm concerned. All those great healthy salads and it looks like a soda sitting next to them in every picture... Also treat yourself to a regular glass instead of a plastic cup...
You are awesome...love the show... have any extra tickets for the Orlando show?????

Dear Karen,

Like you, I'm hooked on reading the 'comments' daily -- I really can't explain it. Maybe I really do need to get a life :)

When I read some of the 'simply careless writings' (great way to put it), I do wonder if some of these people are for real.

It's interesting though ...

Have a great day!

Dear Leslie Bell and Getta Life,

The next sentence also indicates that 'lobsters' (plural) have one tail! Guess they're all attached. Sounds like something in which the circus might be interested.

There also should be no apostrophe in the word 'it's' contained in a later sentence, and the next-to-last sentence should actually be two complete sentences.

I agree that 'proofing' information provided routinely by some professionals to the reading public is important as these writings influence, and teach, others. In that sense, I'd love to have a job of 'proofing' these 'thoughts' also! However, the seeming 'errors' in these thoughts often provide humor and/or give additional meaning to the contents of the writings. I'm hooked on reading these 'thoughts' daily to determine whether the language errors are actually trying to convey different meanings than those immediately apparent. I'm sure I've spent many useless hours trying to find hidden meanings in simply careless writings. I'm also sure I'll keep pondering such errors, however, and feeling frustrated if I fail to find humor hiding beneath the errors.

Good for you, though, in addressing this issue. I'm not sure what language we're speaking today, but I'm beginning to believe it's not English.

To the one who let the poor lobsters live, I'm proud of you!!! Perhaps we should try to grow lobsters in the dark. Like the fish who have evolved in caves, the lobsters should evolve with no eyes so they at least won't be able to see what's going to happen to them in their last moments! This should help you to feel a bit better!

PS- Have a Krispy Kreme, on me!

Love Ya, Darling Girl!

By the way: Happy Birthday to Liza!(yesterday, 3/12)
Ellen? Have Liza on your show again-
Have Lunch!

Love you, Dear Ellen- and one more thing:
I will pick up the check, if you come have lunch in San Antonio......

THANK GOD!!!
Ellen- at least your chef/angry writer/whoever who makes you lunch has run out of the bulk-mangos from Costco...
LOBSTER!!!!! Wooooo Hoooooo!
You're a Star! Eat! Eat! Eat!
(Don't forget: send some People to Tiffanys to buy you some Sterling flatware....)

(....a Waterford goblet or two wouldn't be bad also....Everyone knows that ANY beverage tastes better in expensive crystal.......)

Love you, Dear Girl! "Giddy up" with the Horse-rider tomorrow!

im hungry

Ellen,
I have a terrific recipe for a Strawberry Spinich Salad with a rasberry vinagrette dressing I think you would love.

Ellen,
Valentine's day 2 years ago I ate lobster from a supposedly five star restaurant in mandeville, la. If you're ever in Mandeville or looking to eat 5star while youre down south...don't go to this place. im not sure if i can say the name...but its the only 5star in Mandeville, la.

Well, I used to think lobsters were pretty rockin' especially because they are so cool looking and it gave me an excuse to eat warm butter.

Ellen, I swear I almost died. I clearly ate a bad lobster or that lobster ate something bad. All i Know is I went to the hospital for a week for food poisoning.

So, be careful eating lobster...especially in Mandeville, La.

Ellen, your lobster salad is alluring, the iconic delicacy of the sea, I can imagine it melting in my mouth, just like “butta.”

Some lobster dishes are more difficult to prepare than others: stuffed, broiled or baked lobsters were my career nemeses. In short, to prepare these divine dishes, one must plummet a large knife across the underside, close to the chest to kill the creature. This action severs the spinal cord and kills the lobster as quickly as possible. (Julia Child, et al.)

One evening I was obligated to prepare several broiled lobsters because they were part of the ‘specials menu’ of the day. I pleaded with the owner to not ask me to do that. Eventually, I accepted his decision because ‘that was my job.’

The dinner orders began to pile up in the kitchen and my stress level skyrocketed up to my ears. In that decisive moment, ‘I lost it.’ The vision of the little crustaceans squirming around on my cutting board was too much for my brain to manage.

My eyes became watery and instantaneously I was extremely anxious. The rubber bands had been removed from two of the lobster’s claws. Without a moment of hesitation, I snatched the lobsters up and darted out of the back door, across the sand and down to the shoreline. I put them into shallow water, while whispering to them: “Run, save yourselves! I’ll go back and get the others!”

The restaurant owner caught a glimpse a body traipsing across the sand with a lobster in each hand as he was seating a party in the dining room. I was then, abruptly forbidden to ‘free’ anymore food and he fired me: until the next day. We had a good laugh about that one because we were friends, and neither one of us could believe what I had just done.

I have never been asked to prepare lobsters since that day.

i love lobsters but i never tasted one before!!!
seriously, i love ellen deGeneres Show...a must see show everyday of your life!!!from tin cuison of subic, philippines

Ellen,

I don't really like Lobster,
But That makes me want to eat it!
:)

Have a D-E-lisous Lunch!

Ellen,

Don't you ever just have a hankering for a nice juicy burger with fries and a chocolate shake?

Leslie Bell,

I agree ... and some of the viewers need proofreaders for their comments here. It's a mess around here with typos and misspellings. Ask my friend, Miss Spelling.

I think you'd be perfect for the job.

Thanks for noticing the error -- I saw it, too, but wasn't going to say anything.

Looks yummy.....

Hey Ellen: What's in the red cup?

:)

You guys need a proofreader/copy editor, and I'd be happy to volunteer. In the lunch description for March 12 the writer has written, "What a fantastic creature lobsters are." It should be, "What fantastic creatures lobsters are" or "What a fantastic creature a lobster is."

now wouldn't it be cool to have a seeing eye lobster??
