I want to plug in a conventional microphone to my computer. Like the ones used at concerts and for radio broadcasts. I need an adapter than I can plug in my microphone into and convert it into 35mm so I can plug it in. It would be great it you could posts links and or products that offer this! Thanks so much!

Sounds like you are saying that you already have a mic? If not the best thing you can do is get a quality USB condenser mic. see:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/studio/USB_microphone.htm
If you have an existing mic, then you will need a power source up to 48V if you are using a condenser with phantom power requirements (this is why the USB is a better solution). If you plan to use a dynamic mic, (not usually used for broadcast, but good for vocals), then you will need a cable/converter to go from the XLR connection on the mic down to the 35mm - you will probably need two stages: XLR to 1/4" ( http://www.radioshack.com/sm-16-ft-xlr-to-1-4-microphone-cable--pi-2103835.html ) , 1/4" to 1/8" ( http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Hosa-Mono-14-F-Mono-Mini-M-Adapter-Jack?sku=333092&src=3SOSWXXA ) - an alternative would be to use a mixer and the stereo outputs of your mixer into the (stereo) AUDIO IN of your soundcard (blue not pink)
Hope this helps
