Ivy’s got her pick for Dancing With The Stars already nailed down.

Excited, I croaked at Jim (hey, man, I’m sick, my voice has decided not to cooperate with me) “Dude, he’s a blogger!” Jim looked at me all crazy and then said, “There’s hope for you yet, maybe you WILL get on DWTS someday.” … Even so, solely based on the fact that he’s got an interesting blog, he’s got my votes. And I haven’t even seen him dance yet. Of course, that might actually be a good thing, he could dance like Tucker Carlson.

Sharon Cobb actually knows another one of the contestants personally. I don’t think he’s a blogger.

Who knew I’d ever have a reason to post a photo of Wayne and me from 1982?
A quarter of a century later, he pretty much looks the same. I don’t. One of us has had a facelift and wears a girdle. The other has naturally black hair. That being said, we discussed why he should record a beautiful Spanish song called ‘La Nave de la Vida.’ I talked him into it. Life is odd.

On Dancing With The Stars, however, Newton was more nervous than I’ve ever seen him. He’s not quite the natural dancer I thought he’d be, but his charisma and charm will carry him over to next week, along with his fabulous dancing partner, Cheryl Burke.
