Living in Cleveland, I have the special opportunity each November to see one of my favorite figure skaters perform. An Evening With Scott Hamilton and Friends is a special one-night-only show that he does here in Cleveland each year. Scott Hamilton is an Olympic gold medalist, US and World champion known for his fun and quirky style on the ice. In 1997, it was widely publicized that Scott had testicular cancer. In 2004, it was announced that he had a benign brain tumor. Scott chose to be treated at the Cleveland Clinic, and now hosts a benefit night for the Taussig Cancer Institute each year. He brings great musical/vocal talent to perform with the Cleveland Pops Orchestra, as well as numerous performers on the ice. Many of them are names people might know (last year Ekaterina Gordeeva was one of the performers), and others are up-and-coming stars. This year, Kristi Yamaguchi will be co-hosting with Scott.
The event is being held at the Q on Saturday, November 8th at 5:00pm. Ben can get discounted tickets through his work, like he did last year. Last year he skipped his Boy Scout camping trip that weekend to go with me. This year his campout is the following weekend, so he won't miss anything (although I suspect that he wishes it was the weekend of this event).
So, I actually get my wish this week! Yay!
What do YOU wish for today?

That sounds like so much fun! Have a great time.
I wish to have time to get to Joann's before the craft lady leaves at 3 pm and for her to accept my stuff as a class so I can earn a few bucks.
Plus, I'll get to the tag in a bit!
That's awesome! My wish is to get to see Wicked. They'll be here in March and tickets go on sale here in about six weeks and by gum I WILL get my hands on a pair!
my wish is to see White Christmas on Broadway...
Hope you had fun tonight, that sounds like so much fun!!!
Sounds like a lot of fun! I hope you have a great evening. As for my wish for today . . . hmmm . . . well, I was wishing for an iPod while running on the treadmill! Maybe I'll have to wait for Christmas for that one, I'd even settle for an iPod shuffle.
Let me know if you need a babysitter! We are always available! Sounds like a great date night !
