Yes, its Compliment Day. Today is a great opportunity to say something positive about the people you come into contact with. Everyone has good attributes. ...that's right....... everyone.

•Its a cinch to find compliments for family and loved ones, even for your Mother-in-Law. (Tip: She's probably a good cook.)

•Friends are friends because you see something good about them. Here's an easy compliment to a friend: "Wow, you're very intelligent...you choose your friends wisely".

•It's more challenging to compliment your boss, or people you don't like. Take up the challenge, and find a compliment for them today, too.

Remember: Mama said "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything". After a long search for something good, if you just can't find a compliment for them, then silence is golden.

Compliment Day is celebrated by offering sincere compliments to people you know. It is important that you are sincere. People will see right through insincerity, and you will do more harm than good.

How many compliments should you give out today? The common suggestion is five compliments. Yes, they should be to five different people.

While I am tempted to say something like "Does it count, if you tell a woman she has nice tits?".

Seriously, you should try to say something nice about any teenagers you have involvment with, from nice blouse, or nice haircut etc. and try to ignore the various piercings, strange hair color, etc. It can be amazing, what some positive comments can do for a teenagers atitude on life.

I'd like to compliment Michael Savage for his brutal forthrightness. Of course, Savage doesn't have much in the way of compliments for the people and institutions that he talks about on his show! :-)

Nice one!

Nwokie, it does if you know she wants your opinion; otherwise, all bets are off!

You all are great company, fine people, scholars, gentlemen and gentle ladies, and beautiful inside and out.

There! Done * number of readers.

"Does it count, if you tell a woman she has nice tits?".

If she's working a pole, or she askes you if you like them.

Otherwise, only if you consider a slap in the face a compliment, which "knowing" you, you probably do.

Dang! I thought it was "Beer Can Appreciation Day" and I was going to empty a Guinness and celebrate...now I have to start over! "Nice cans!"

It's an honor to "know" each and every one of you. Thanks for your time!

Go right ahead as today is Compliment Day and Beer Can Appreciation Day. You can multitask this one.

"Might I say that is some fine Beer and D "Cans" are just the right size!"

DT, you're weren't very complimentary in your email to me when I sent you the pix of the beer PC...something about me and the "short bus"...you better take that back or you'll be sorry because punishment doubles on Compliment Day. By the way, I still like you.

Top 15 Backhanded Compliments Lifted from Some Wonderful and Insightful Web Site I Found By Using that Most Incredible Search Tool called Google:

#15 "I can't believe you can fit into such a small Speedo, Bob!"

#14 "Most guys think they *have* to have a cool car -- but not you."

#13 "A bright red mini-dress! You really have tons of confidence in your inner beauty."

#12 "You really make me feel intelligent -- especially when you talk."

#11 "Look at how much weight you've lost! That dress didn't fit you nearly as well at that last wedding you wore it to."

#10 "Not only do you dance surprisingly well, you *smell* better than most ugly chicks."

#9 "Great sermon, Father! That loud part at the end was a real wake-up call!"

#8 "Wow! For a first-time sexual encounter, that was refreshingly speedy!"

#7 "Now, now, it's just as important to stay behind and guard the women and children."

#6 "It's nice that you can wear tight jeans without that unsightly bulge in the crotch that most men have."

#5 "I've never seen a man chug so many chardonnays."

#4 "No, really -- compared to Grenada, Afghanistan and Somalia, you Iraqi Army guys kick *ass.*"

#3 "What I like about your toupee is it says, 'Hey, I have better things to spend my money on!'"

#2 "You have 10 cats?!? Wow, it only smells like three or four."

and the Number 1 Backhanded Compliment...

#1 "Okay, let's try it. One that size can't possibly be painful."

"Your plastic surgeon has such a delightful sense of humor!"

"You're smart to do your laundry on Saturday night, when everyone else is out."
