My wife and I got the giggles a few times during the show. The giggles started by us suggesting that little Ashley was either lost, or had pinched her finger in the chair. I work at an elementary school, and I have yet to hear any "buzz" around Sanjaya. The kids I speak with seem to like Blake. I was thinking that possibly sticking with the song's theme, Phil had tobacco juice on his shirt.

Click here for my latest article The first night of the spring gave us a fun, interesting, and exciting show. The performers, host, and judges were happy and loose. There were a number of excellent performances, as well the history-making "worst Idol performance ever". Tonight's Performances: 1. Haley Scarnato sang "Tell Him". Looks like Haley has decided to turn up the sex-appeal. Her out
Sanjaya has all the Asian, middle eastern people voting for him!! If you're serious about that (which I doubt you are), you're crazy.
Usually opening and closing Explorer and Firefox until the edit/delete option appears is my best bet to get articles deleted. It should be easier than that. You didn't like the trick? I thought it was clever and innovative.
Here's a good magic trick that I have come across while browsing the internet. It is from a Japanese TV show. The magician says that he is hungry for a hamburger. After that, he says he is hungry for a teriyaki burger. Saying any more than that would spoil the surprise of the magic. Enjoy. The whole thing runs about a minute and a half.

In today's paper, there is an AP photo of Evander Holyfield training. Evander looks a lot like the present day Iron Sheik. (This picture is from some guy's AOL site that I found on google.)
I have always thought that Pink Floyd "The Wall" is pretty overrated. We have many of these albums at my house. I am a little surprised that more Queen albums didn't make it. I'd suggest "Sheer Heart Attack", "Jazz", and "A Day at the Races".
Click here for my latest article Tonight we were treated to the first mercifully short half-hour results' show. The group of twelve was cut down to eleven. Nice show, kept moving. Quick Recap: Group song: everyone got together to sing some Diana Ross songs. Brandon Rogers and Phil Stacey were sent into the bottom three. Diana Ross sang a song. With the
Click here for my latest article Tonight was our top twelve's first trip to the big stage. The theme for the evening was "The music of Diana Ross." It was an interesting show, with a few outstanding, a few average, and a few poor performances. Tonight's performances: 1) Brandon Rogers sang "Can't Hurry Love". Went on first, sang a hackneyed song, forgot words, and wasn't quite memo
I was reading Professor Chan's Blog from votefortheworst.com. I read about Phil Stacey's performance. The Prof's nickname for Stacey is HILARIOUS! <DIV style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; PADDI
Click here for my latest article For the past few years I have dedicated an article to handicapping the ten/twelve finalists on American Idol during the weekend before the first show featuring the twelve finalists. Well that weekend is now, so here goes: This year (like every year) we have three groups of contestants: Those who are likely to be in the final three, those likely to round out the final six, and the six contesta
I'd bet that LaKisha doesn't make it past the top four. She's good, but eventually Melinda take most of her votes.
I only got two right, but I refuse to watch the news. The only "newsy" show that I watch is The Colbert Report.
VoteForTheWorst must have less influence than we thought. Both Sundance and Antonella were sent away. My vote went to Sabrina, and she was cut.
Click here for my latest article. The studio shows are over. The top twelve is set, and next week the show will move to the big stage. There were a few slight surprises in the eliminations. What we're left with is a top-twelve, half-filled with superstars, and half-filled with "cannon fodder." Over the weekend, keep an eye open for my annual "odds" article. I will predict (with odds) the eventual winner of
JoeUser was down last night. Here's what I wrote, but was unable to post: (Cut and paste from Word seems a bit awkward. I doubt that enough people will read this to justify a major edit. I will leave it as-is.) There it was, the last performance show before the final twelve are announced. Once again we saw that the best talent in the c

Brandon certainly has fallen flat, hasn't he? He hasn't lived up to expectations. Chris Richardson is okay, but I don't get him either. We'll see how the women do soon. . .
Click here for my latest article This is a nice part of the season. Eight contestants, one hour, over, and done. At the end of tonight's show, the panel was discussing how many of the men actually deserved to be in the final twelve. Randy and Paula said four, Simon said three-and-a-half. Personally I think that three of the men belong in the final twelve: Chris, Chris, and Blake. The others don't r
I was thinking that Kelly looked a bit more full-figured than before. I thought that she had just gained weight. Of course a breast augmentation has become a big part of the celebrity "to do" list now. Probably makes some singers more marketable. (Or to at least feel more marketable.) Next on her "to do" list would be to find a more flattering dress than she wore last night.
Click here for my latest article. Tonight's show was another of the always-anticipated elimination shows. Three out of my four picks for elimination were sent home. Last week I got half right, this week I did one better than half. Notable events from tonight's show: The group sang "Joy to the World". They have to fill TV time somehow. . . Nick Pedro was eliminated. Too

I have read in a few other places about how handsome Jared is. I don't get it. He isn't ugly or anything. Isn't he just a little "boring" for TV? Maybe I'd make a bad girl. . .
Click here for my latest article After last week's mens' show -the longest two hours in American Idol history- this week we were treated to a much stronger effort by nearly all of the contestants. At this point it still seems to like it's a woman's contest to lose, but it may eventually become conceivable that a man may challenge for the win. The biggest problem (for me) about tonight's show was the theme. Each contest
