30 Seconds to Air

Sometimes, just before her show, Ellen likes to stare at a blank TV screen. It's her way of reminding herself that she's got to try to be more entertaining than a turned-off TV. Otherwise, what's the point? Sure, we all know that Ellen doesn't need to go to that kind of trouble. There's no way she couldn't be entertaining even if she tried not to be. I guess you don't become a superstar without always pushing yourself to the entertaining limit every second of the day. And that's what Ellen DeGeneres does. Especially when there's only... 30 Seconds to Air.

The winner of today's game "Twinsies" was not wearing the same outfit as Ellen was in the photo. On Ellen's jacket the buttons were on her left side of the jacket. The contestant's jacket had the buttons on the right side.

Ellen is fun and has great ideas.. nice, loves animals and dances well. These are just a few... too many to mention here. If my tv had ears and it was feb 19-2009 and I could hear my neighbors tv watching Ellen and they wouldn't let me in 'cause they thought it was funny... I'd still laugh. OR!!!!!!!! I'd huff and blow my neighbors door down!!!!... (invite myself in!!) HEEEeeeee ... arn't you glad your not my neighbor... NOOO... I wouldn't do that!!! seriously now... I'd probably cry and beg to be let in... I'd say!!! I have pizza and beer!!!..
OR!! I could rig a camera like the spies do in a movie to see into my neighbors living room!!!.. just to view the show! But then they'd probably poll the drapes.. but if I'm careful and unseen I may be able to pull the mirror thing!

Hope this makes your day Ellen!

Ellen,
I love your style and the way your dress, I watch your show allllll the time, but today (april 29th) you are dressed just like Pee-Wee Herman. All you need is a red bow-tie. I love Pee-Wee too so its ok.
