dang, we lost. that totally blows. i mean good for the other kids, but i just hate losing sometimes. oh, well, i did all i can jean. i voted, asked everyone on my myspace buddylist to vote, and everyone on my hotmail, and yahoo account to vote too. i guess it just wasn't enough. but at least we got close. we got a taste of victory.

well i'll make sure to let them know that you thanked them jean. i'll copy your message and pic, and paste it on thank you note.

i'm sure they will all trip out at knowing that you actually talked to me. i think 1/2 of them don't believe me when i told them that we have talked online many times. well your a well know famous news anchor, and i tend to joke around alot. but this will be proof.

would you mind if i called you bean, jean? i call my little sister jeanette bean or [...], so everytime i write to you i always type your name like that. but then erase it, because i don't want to offend you. but i'm just asking if i can call you that. if not, it's cool. well have a great day. take care jean.

Hi Jean,

What cracks me up is how on earth the above videos made it to first place. Your son's video got a raw deal in my opinion. At the same time, much like American Idol, he's still a winner by making it to the finals! From that perspective, you have a lot to be proud of!

yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks bean, your the best.

so bean, i have tons of questions to ask you, and i hope you have time to answer them, but if you don't it's ok. but i hope you do. i'm always interested in what you have to say.

1. since you have started blogging, have your confidence gone up? i have read alot of people writing to you saying that your smart, and pretty, and that they wish to see more of you. i totally agree with them, but i wonder what you think of it. has it influenced you in anyway?

2. i'm still wondering on what happened to you when you broke your jaw. how did that happen?

3. when you meet fans out in public, how do you react to all of that? are you happy, surprised?

4. what's to oddest thing that a fan has said or done to you in person?

What kind of ignornat demeans people for changing their lives by taking their G.E.D.? You have no right to demean people for their choices when you call presiednt Bush Mr.Like it or not thats not even proper but then again who is the ignorant one (You!) You are so jealous of Paris Hilton and her families money that is the only thing you attack her for? Your pethedic your poor children they are going to grow up like you? You will never be half the woman Paris Hilton is!
