And for those of you smirking about my New Kids On The Block inclusion...be honest, you really want to go! I cannot tell a lie, I was one of those crazy fans back in the day...what, like 15 years ago?!? So while I may feel a little corny about it, I can't resist. I'll have a full report for you tomorrow!
