Corn Dogs For Everyone!

February 10, 2014 by jansenschmidt

Late last year I happened upon the coolest kid on the planet – Kid President. I’ve posted a couple of his videos in the past and I think it’s time for another round, so put on your dancing shoes and get ready to boogie.

And guys in particular pay attention to numbers 7 and 5.

So, what’d’ya say? Can we all try being a little nicer this year? I’m game. And I’ll go first: I appreciate all of you, my dear readers and wish you nothing but success this year. Now it’s your turn, and remember, if you can’t think of something nice to say, you’re not thinking hard enough. (I love that!)

What do you think people should say more often? While you’re thinking, enjoy a corn dog on me.

Word of the Day: Yapok

Fun fact about me: I’ve been playing the piano for over 40 years! (That’s right, I started in the womb.)

I don’t think I could get sick of hearing, “You are really good at what you do!” Or “You haven’t aged since college days” Or “Please pass the corn dogs.” Wait. What?

  You are REALLY good at what you do and here’s a corn dog!
  
  Thanks for stopping by, Susie. Spread the cheer and the corn dogs.

Please, thank you, and your welcome. We don’t hear these often enough. Love that kid, Patricia. He is going to own the world some day. 🙂

  I believe little Robby Novak (aka Kid President) is going to run the world some day. He’s definitely got the right idea.
  
  Thanks for stopping by – please continue to do so – and you’re welcome for all the times I’ve done something nice for you (I hope there’s at least one).
  
  Have a great day. It’s been awhile since I’ve been able to say this, but enjoy the sunshine!

Patricia, you’re so awesome, I’m going to name a character in my book after you…and not the villain. Or maybe. You’d make a super-awesome snarky villain. I want to hear more often: “Take the afternoon off and read.”

  What? Name a character after me? That’d be sweet. I’d make an awesome snarky villain. Or a quirky sarcastic side-kick.
  
  In fact, take the afternoon off and write about me. No, I mean, take the afternoon off and read.
  
  You’re pretty awesome, too. Thanks for swinging by and the next time you eat a corn dog, think of me and Kid President.

LOL at #5 – my husband says that way too often!

All the political commentators on the news need lessons on #4!

Thanks for sharing – that was fun!

  You are most welcome and thank you for taking the time to listen. Kid President is wise beyond his years. Except maybe for #5 and the whole corn dog thing, but hey, it’s all about the giving and the sharing.

Number 5 got me laughing. Love this kid (and corn dogs). Thanks for the bonus smiles, Patricia. I’m high fiving you.
And I’m intrigued by the idea of a tropical opossum.

  Number 5 is definitely something everyone should say more often. We’ll look a little weird but hey, that’s life.
  
  High five right back and corn dogs are on me.
  
  Tropical opossum’s are like American opossums, they just drink those beverages with little paper umbrellas.
  
  Thanks for smiling with me this happy Monday.

I LOVE this kid’s videos. Okay, whoever invented corn dogs should get a Nobel Prize. Just saying. Oh, and I’m all about telling people when they are awesome. You’re awesome. 🙂

I’ll take a few cor dogs and some cotton candy! I’d vote for this kid. He makes more sense than most politicians we have now.

    Ooops – that should say, a corn dog. You can have a corn dong if you want to, but I’m guessing a corn dog will be better.
