After watching American Idol this week, I was inspired...
Before each person took to the stage to do their thing, a clip was aired where they shared one thing about themselves that people probably didn't know...
I could easily give you thirty little known Jackie facts, or LKJF's, but instead will shorten it by 27...
1) I cannot hear a patriotic song without crying.
It always makes for a good time when at a sporting event or other otherwise fun outing...
Everyone is in a good mood and are raring to have fun...
That's usually around the time that the Star Spangled Banner begins...
I try to think of anything else to take my mind off of the lump in my throat...
but it never works...
Total waterworks...
Every... time...
Soooo embarrassing...
2) I secretly (or not so secretly now) desire to be a professional singer...
One small, yet insurmountable problem....
When God was passing out vocal talent...
I was standing in line for cooking talent...
because I thought they were giving away free samples...
I still enjoy singing though...
just not for money...
which is a good thing, because I would give new meaning to "starving artist"
3) When I was 8 or 9, I secretly wished I had a mysterious illness
(a totally curable one, of course)
so that Dr. Joe Gannon of my favorite show at the time "Medical Center"
could cure me...
I had even thought that if he couldn't figure it out, I might suggest he give Dr. Steve Kiley from "Marcus Welby" a call and perhaps he would do a consult...
They were the Dr. McDreamy's of the 60's & 70's...
and I had a fever for both of them...
What little known facts about you are you willing to share with me?
