The Mandisa Challenge-Former American Idol contestant Mandisa has a new CD out and we were talking about it around 7:30 this morning. Well, I decided to open my big mouth and say "let's try and get Mandisa on the air before 9:00am!" So, the challenge was on, and within the first hour Zack and I got her cell phone number and e-mail address and left her messages. Unfortunately, she didn't call before 9:00, but you may be hearing her very soon!

They kissed but nothing more Plus: Kevin could file for primary custody by the end of the week.
