Dancing With The Stars - What Fun

I don't know about you, but I'm ready to start dancing.   If I could have half the fun the folks on Dancing With The Stars seemed to be having, I'm there. Watching the finals last night inspired me to start looking for dance studios this morning.  Sign me up - I'm ready to tango!

I guess it was no surprise that Marie Osmond was the first finalist to be eliminated.  I thougt she really had a good chance of winning until her dolly debacle on Monday. Her loyal fans have been keeping her going week after week, but that was too much cutesy even for them.  But winning isn't everything and Marie deserves a lot of credit.  She worked so hard, and really mastered the moves.  Did you see those flips?   Dancing helped her drop weight, get fit and ready to start yet another Osmond tour.  Her boundless energy is something we should all be shooting for.

I really thought Maria Brown deserved to walk away with the trophy.  Scary Spice won top marks from the judges with her final performance of the Mamba, but viewers were behind Brazilian racing driver Helio Castroneves, voting him into first place.  But you know what, everybody on that show is a winner just for having the guts to do it.
