Technically, I didn't win Dinner with Barack. My wife Cathy did,

and she picked me as her guest.

I still can't believe our -- OK, Cathy's -- luck. Not many people get

to know the President and First Lady: Two incredibly warm, smart,

down-to-earth people with their share of hilarious parenting stories.

At the end of the night, the President even wrote a note to our

babysitter thanking her for watching the boys. Really!

Let's just say I'm going to have a tough time topping this night.

So enter today, then talk everyone you know into doing the same --

and don't forget to be extra nice in case they're considering you as their

guest:
