Phat Zazzle

Did you know that you can create your very own U.S. postage stamp? Kudos to the folks at Zazzle for offering this brillantly creative service. My parents just sent my husband and I an anniversary card with their adorable dapple dachshund, Kirby, on a 41 cent postage stamp. With opportunities to customize nearly everything from t-shirts and mugs to ties and mouse pads, I suppose the postage stamp was only a natural progression. But - what a wonderfully brillant idea! It almost makes me want to whine with adolescent glee "I want one!" What will they think to personalize next? Phatty Chops to Zazzle for pushing the envelope...with customizable stamps.

Chops to Donny Deutsch

Donny is the man! So how did this former advertising guru make our exclusive Phatty Chops list? With his oh so big idea of creating the "Big Idea." By consistently encouraging his audience to go after their dreams and do what they love, this tv show fully embodies the Phatty Chops spirit. Pursuing what's in your heart, taking a risk, daring to really live, not taking no for answer, is how all great things are created in this world. With everyone from your mother to the media "protectively" holding you back, Daddy Donny manages to make his inspirational voice heard through all the discouraging clutter out there. Thank you, Donny, for daring us to make our dreams a reality. And, yes, we accept the challenge.
