Number 10 never will follow along when I copy/paste this file into the post. It’s just another one of those mysteries. But being active in Blog Land is for me something that is full of mysteries. There are so many things going on that I do not understand. It truly is a miracle that this blog functions as well as it does.

There are basic things that go wrong all the time. I have been learning about Google Analytics and feeling pretty good about it. But now the calendars have disappeared. I was using them to track different lengths of time. Maybe they didn’t like that because they sure did go away.

We have a little person with us for a few days so The Wizard Of Oz is again going in the next room. It was on last night. And it will be on tonight, tomorrow and the next day. She is not interested in Jordin Sparks. Most five year olds don’t even know who she is and don’t care. But I care and I’m going to be supportive. Jordin sang at the Kennedy Center Awards Show the other night. She came out and sang for Diana Ross who was being honored. When she finished she looked up at Diana and said, “I love you” . Then she started walking out and crying at the same time. This girl cries a lot. She used to cry every week on American Idol when someone was kicked off. I used to wonder if she would cry when she was kicked off. But it never happened because she won.

And she cried plenty when that happened. I’m hoping that she wasn’t crying the other evening because she felt like she hadn’t done well. Because she was good. Her lower range doesn’t project like her upper range. But once she gets going up there in the loft it is amazing stuff. Scorsese was being honored and he just shook his head when she went through one amazing run near the end. Diana was sitting right next to him and probably filled him in on the fact that she is only 18 years old and she has all the talent in the world. Diana loves Jordin. She lit up the room with her smile when Jordin said she loved her. They have known each other for at least nine months now since Diana was on American Idol last year. I’m thinking Diana asked for her to be on the show.

Performing before the President and the rest of that crowd has got to be a bit intimidating for an eighteen year old who one year ago was standing in lines and being told she wasn’t good enough.

One of my goals before I am shipped off to Amateur Writer’s Paradise is to have dinner with Jordin Sparks. It can be a group affair but I need to have an opportunity to talk to her. Or listen to her. Either way is fine. Mostly it will just be a diversion so I can look at her. “This is Jordin Sparks! And she is exactly the way she seems on video. Except she is much closer!”

Would I rather have dinner with anyone else except my wife? No. Sorry. Actually it may be that this entire effort with the blog is just a platform for me to say “Jordin when you next are in Virginia let’s all go out and have a wonderful dinner! It’s on me and you can bring Mom, Dad, Bro and anybody else you like.”

If she ever reads this. Having dinner with Beth and Jordin together would just about make my life complete. I’m sure there is a lot of curiosity about Beth the former rock star who is so afraid of appearing on the internet. What does she look like? Jordin! You can see her in person and find out!! Believe me she is very beautiful too.

Well, I must get back to increasing my page rank with Google. Why? I bet you know the answer. I’m sorry. But when I get started with Jordin I need to write about it. She is such an amazing human being.
