 Am I infatuated with 'Whoopi' Goldberg because she's on the very short and exclusive list of those with an EGOT? No. Do I admire her because she turned that boring church choir into the talk of the town in Sister Act? Also, no (ok fine, yes and no). Do I even know why I'm drawn to and adore her?? *Nope!* But the beauty of it is that it doesn't matter why, because it's just a scientific fact that Whoopi reigns supreme in my world.

You're probably familiar with the card game *Apples to Apples* (if not, brush up [here](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apples_to_Apples)). Back before *Cards Against Humanity* came out, and I thought *Apples to Apples* was fun, it was well known among the people that I played with that the Whoopi Goldberg card was my "trump card." Basically if it was my turn and someone played the Whoopi Goldberg card, no matter how spot-on or better-matching any other card played was, I was picking the Whoopster.

How did I acquire this card and why is it framed? Now you're asking too many questions. What I will tell you is that every day as I'm pecking away on my keyboard at my desk, I can glance over to my left and see that name that demands respect and admiration: Whoopi Goldberg. And I'll be darned if that isn't worth something.
