Quotes:

Ellen DeGeneres:[about clear cell-phone reception] At least if there's static or something you have a warning. You have an indication that you're going to lose the call. Actually, there's nothing worse than it being crystal-clear reception and you've been rambling on for who knows how long, only to find out that it cut off who knows how long ago.

Funny Funny Funny!!!!!

I have to say that Ellen is one of the funniest people I have ever had the pleasure of watching. She talks about things that we can all relate too. From pretending to run when we trip, to waving to someone that isn't who we think " That's not Nancy." She talks about the things that we all think, but often don't say because we would look strange. Everything about this comedy special is funny, from her facial expression, to her jokes, she made me laugh out loud. I have seen this special about ten times and every time I laugh like it's the first time I've seen it. She has this energy about her that not too many people have. I think that she truly is one of the funniest people that we have in the entertainment industry. I really enjoyed watching this and suggest that anyone who is looking to laugh should see this. I promise you that you'll laugh every time she speaks. I give this special film an A.
