The Girl From Ipanema

Welcome BACK ladies and gentlemen! Today is, again, a very SPECIAL day here at the "Corner..."

"Kev" was in fact able to catch JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and PINK, front row (there is no other row for "Kev") at Philip's Arena here in Atlanta last night with friend Kit-Kat!

In a word, Justin's "FutureSex/LoveShow" was AMAZING. Pink was equally incredible. I will provide a complete review, including PICTURES, later in the week, so please check back. (I am still reeling from it...)

The REAL star today, however, isn't Justin Timberlake, Pink, or my favorite "HOT Guy," David Beckham. It's not even Stevie Nicks or Ricky Martin....

Today is a SPECIAL day because it was on this day 80 years ago that my dear Grandmother made her entrance into the world. For the avid reader of "Kev's Corner," you "met" my Grandmother, Violet, back in August. (If you are new here, you can check out the archives to the right of the page.) She is truly an amazing woman who has made my life much brighter. She is cute as a bug and remains one of the funniest people I know. Simply thinking of her warms my heart.

No tribute here can really do her justice, or express the gratitude I have always felt for the kindness and love she has shown me my entire life. I can only say that I wish everyone had a Grandmother like mine. (But not her - she's taken.)

To celebrate my Grandmother, I will be posting pictures of her this week (but not today because my damn scanner isn't working...).

Please help me in wishing my Grandmother a very HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! (She shares her birthday with Bernadette Peters, Gavin MacLeod, Zero Mostel, Tommy Tune and Mario Andretti. But they're all losers next to her.)

Click HERE to hear a song my Grandmother would play on the organ when I was growing up.

Finally, to my Grandmother, I am SORRY I can't be there in person to celebrate your special day! I am thinking of you and love you! Hugs & kisses.

To everyone else, have a GREAT Wednesday! "Kev" will be back later in the week.
