Default Re: Best compliment you\'ve ever been given

well, like everyone else, have received many compliments over the years. Probably more than some of you because I am older than you. Been called "Rainman" by certain friends fairly often, I am pretty sure it was a compliment.

I have been told I am a great friend and very loyal, yadda yadda.

But I think the most precious to me if not the best was when my family was having dinner out one evening about 4 years ago. My then 18 year old daughter was talking about one of her teachers my younger daughter was going to have.
This is a double compliment because descrbing him she said " He's really cool like Dad ". My 23 year old son ( who knew the teacher)interrupted her to say " He's nowhere as cool as Dad is". I know it sounds dorky buy my kids are about as unpatronizing as it gets and it made me feel good.
