Flo Jo, who still holds the world records for 100 and 200 meters set in 1988, tragically passed away of an epileptic seizure in her sleep at the age of 38 in 1998, when her daughter Mary was only 7 years old.
Instead of becoming a track and field star like her parents, Mary dreams of being a singer. Surprisingly, she was not bad at it and managed to quickly establish a connection with the audience. Howie Mandell proclaimed he just fell in love with her, while Howard Stern told her she had him in 30 seconds.
Of course, daddy could not be prouder. Congrats, Mary!

This was an awesome performance from Mary Joyner who I thought killed it on Americas Got Talent. I thought she did a great job, and I think she will find success beyond the show. Americas Got Talent is one of the best shows I watch on primetime. The Hopper records all my PrimeTime Anytime shows for playback on my time. Now I can use the new Auto Hop feature to enjoy all those awesome shows commercial free. This option doesn’t delete or block commercials it offers you the option to skip commercials on primetime programs. One of my coworkers at Dish showed me how Auto Hop works which has me excited. I sometimes fast forward too fast through the commercials only to rewind back to the start of the next scene, so this will prevent this problem and keep the batteries from dying so fast in my remote.
