CES 2010

I got to the LVCC just in time. The journalist registration line in the second floor pressroom was virtually non-existent . . . until I finished. By then, 20 more journalists had lined up behind me.

As I began to submit my materials to receive my baby-blue press badge holder (courtesy of Best Buy), I could not believe the smoky resonance of the speaking voice of the woman on the other side of the counter.

"Do you sing?" asked this vocal aficionado, I was ready to throw myself at her feet and declare "I'm yours" even before she began to softly serenade me.

I turned out that I had met the fabulous Erma, of Tony and Erma, "Duet for Hire—Music Heart and Soul." Folks, check out the Facebook page for Erma Henderson from Las Vegas. The woman is a gift. I have never before found myself smiling so much in the LVCC. By the time I had left the room, I knew that a good show was in store.
