Janet Steele,Albany Oregon Chamber of Commerce
You set a wonderful stage for a fantastic evening with your sense of humor, knowledge of the audience, our community and of course your great jokes! Our members and guests were still talking about the fun they had and the entertainer (you!) the next week. ~~ Janet Steele,Albany Oregon Chamber of Commerce
Michael Van Tassell, Boehringer Ingleheim Pharmaceuticals
"An uplifting, cheery, laugh-filled kickoff to our annual Managers Meeting."
Vincent Wilson, Federated Group

Brian A. Lortie, SmithKline Beecham
"Your jabs targeted all areas of the political arena while remaining fit text for a mixed audience. Your delivery succeeded in offending no one."
Diane Lentz GE Consumer and Industrial
"Jim, I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the two performances you did for our sales teams. The Contract Sales event in January was so successful, Retail Sales demanded to have you back in April! Your ability to add employees in to your routine was priceless."
Brian A. Lortie, SmithKline Beecham
"Your jabs targeted all areas of the political arena while remaining fit text for a mixed audience. Your delivery succeeded in offending no one."
Don Barnhart, ADS Corporation
"I especially appreciated your 'customization' approach. It is not often that we find a guest speaker who will take the time to research biographies on key staff and then weave these insights into their presentations."
Senator Edward Kennedy
"Many, many thanks for providing the entertainment at the Boehner-Kennedy Charity Dinner. Vicki and I thought you were incredibly funny and a great addition to the event."
Kathy Haugen, Georgia Association of Broadcasters
"Broadcasters see a lot of talent, and they are a tough audience to play to. You certainly did a great job as evidenced by the standing ovation they gave you"
Tammy Nevill, Illinois Funeral Directors Association
"Your personal touch is especially appreciated as it made people feel like you were a part of our group, and not a paid entertainer."
Gene A. Donaghy, Indiana Michigan Power
"I haven't laughed for 45 straight minutes as much as I did during your presentation. It's hard to believe how, just spending 15 minutes with our committee, you could roast those people."
Kelly Thomas, North Fulton Chamber of Commerce
"If I only had you around on a daily basis, I could have abs of steel. I don't recall laughing continuously for 45 minutes .... ever!"
Gus Gouthier, Alamogordo Chamber of Commerce
"I haven't laughed for 45 straight minutes as much as I did during your presentation. It's hard to believe how, just spending 15 minutes with our committee, you could roast those people."
B. Townes, Wilkesboro Community Center
"Just a note to thank you for opening for Louise Mandrell. I have received many comments such as 'I enjoyed the opening act more than the main show.' "
Robert Moorhead, Associated Builders and Contractors
"For a large national association whose members are diverse, it's tough to keep EVERYONE entertained. Nevertheless, you succeeded."
Ben Fuller, Oklahoma Ready Mixed Concrete Association
"This is the second time we have had you present a program at one of our conventions, and it won't be the last."
