The Grand Scheme of Things

Although I'm not a Jennie Garth fan, really, Marie should have gone home on Dancing with the Stars this week. Marie's mambo was abysmal! What were the judges thinking ranking it so high? Even the BASICS were incorrect (mambo is danced 2,3,4 (hold 1). They were dancing salsa timing, footwork was bad, bad posture, Marie was slow. I cannot believe that they raved about this. I have lost a great deal of respect for the judging this year due to the extreme inconsistencies.

Jennie at least deserves an "A" for most improved. Jennie, you should be proud of how far you've come and what you achieved. I never saw you as lacking confidence either...but rather just thought you needed to work on your posture and frame. Congratulations on making it so far and now you can take a break, relax, and enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with your family.

Speaking of which..."IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS"...Dancing with the Stars is just a television show. There are many hungry, suffering, and poor people and animals in the world. For those of us lucky enough to have a home and food and family and other good things in our lives, Thanksgiving is a good time to give thanks for all that you have and also a time to give something to others.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
