You had me at baton...

I found this at A PINCH OF PEPPER. I was very touched. I am so happy the audience loved him too! Thanks for sharing Pepper (she was my sister's college roommate).

I think the boy is genuine, but everything else is a little contrived to play the emotional card for the audience. However, it is quite touching and I may have even teared up the first time I watched it. Will you support Jonah in his dream to be a professional baton twirler?

No, probably not.

Do you really think it was contrived? I thought it was all genuine. Maybe I'm naive.

I just mean that the producers played up the "your parents don't know and/or support you" bit, i.e., they told the judges what questions to ask and then to have the grandma come out at the end.

When you are at a video you want on youtube, click on "post this video" and it will prompt you what to do. You select Blogger, enter your email address and Blogger password, then it will post the video for you.

I totally agree with you Emily that the judges were fed which questions to ask, but when are they not?

Oh that is delightful. I think that's a movie in the making, kind of like blades of glory. So sweet, I think genuine Emily.
