Kevin Sharp
As an award winning vocalist, entertainer, cancer survivor and now one of the country's top speakers, Kevin has seen and done it all. With a platinum debut album, "Measure Of A Man," scores of award nominations and a string of chart topping hits including "She's Sure Taking It Well," "If You Love Somebody," and the highly acclaimed "Nobody Knows" - which held the top spot on Billboard's Country Singles Chart for an astonishing four weeks, marking the best debut by a new male country singer in five years -- Kevin is no stranger to musical success. But Kevin has experienced his share of heartbreak as well, which is evident in the emotional portrayal of his songs that has become his trademark with fans and critics alike.

A great bumper sticker said,
“Dog think they are human, cats KNOW they are!”
Dog lovers understand, the only reason the cat woke up its owners was to insure its “meal ticket” survived. In typical cat style they are only worried about themselves and their needs. Dogs will die to protect their owners out of loyalty. Please, we need your help. Vote your loyalty with your spare money!
Do Something members, please drop off your donations at least once a day to Mr. B’s room. Currently there is NOT EVEN A PENNY IN CAT JAR! Also, make sure you are showing your loyalty by getting your collection bags out for people to clearly see. I understand you cat owners might be too embarrassed, but please do so!
