I agree DRJENNIFER - I like the to be continueds more than the non-elims!

And as for American Idol....last week a tabloid I saw at the grocery store picked Mandrissa (or whatever) to go all the way.  I am still giving Elliot my vote.

Breaking News Dept.

Quote
MIAMI - Disgraced former lobbyist Jack Abramoff and a business partner were sentenced Wednesday to five years and 10 months in federal prison, the minimum they faced for fraud related to their 2000 purchase of the SunCruz Casinos gambling fleet.

Abramoff and Adam Kidan both pleaded guilty to conspiracy and wire fraud, but they won’t have to report to prison immediately.

The judge postponed their reporting date for at least 90 days so the two can continue cooperating in a Washington corruption investigation and a Florida probe into the killing of former SunCruz owner Konstantinos Boulis. Both deny roles in the killing. Abramoff pleaded guilty in connection with the corruption probe but has yet to be sentenced.

RE: AMAZING RACE.


I'm curious who everyone's favorites are now. My original favorites were the dating nerds (dave and lori). I still like them. But they haven't shown that much promise lately (always finishing in the middle of the pack). I also like barbie and ken (team mojo). It looks like she will have a nice tantrum next week.

Right now as DR Dan said last week, the hippies and the boys are the clear favorites. They are both so strong and always finish at the top (even with bunching).

I suppose barry and fran are doing better than i expected. They are fairly smart. So i guess they just might stick around a few more weeks.

I wasn't really that fond of the team that finished last (the long distance daters) until last night (sorry i cannot remember their names). But even though she made some bad mistakes, they sort of seemed sweet.

I'm really not liking the yeller.  But it is so funny watching his wife patronize him. She is being so sweet. Well actually i'm not sure if she is actually being sweet and encouraging him. Or if she just knows that is what he likes to hear.

Re: Mandissa/ American Idol.

I can't really see her winning. I suppose it's too hard to tell right now.

But to me she sings well, but i just don't love watching her.

Timeless musicals: Hmmm, that is more difficult than it seems.  Of course, I think Li'l Abner is timeless but, of course, it isn't - it's firmly rooted in its decade.  Gypsy seems timeless, which is why it probably gets revived so often.

Yes DR Ron. "bum" is still in vogue.. The use of the word by Americans for vagrant, used to provide some mirth to us a kids.
Our "Waltzing Matilda" is a song about a "bum".

Brilliant "Brill." is no doubt over used by our Brit cousins - more like the American use of "neat" which we only use as a term for "tidy".

I just find the language developments interesting. I wondered if "ass" became the norm because of a pronunciation difference - as in the English/Australian "grass" "glass" and which rhyme with arse not ass.

I've  never understood why out neighbours across the Tasman sea in Middle Earth have developed such a different set of vowel pronunciations.

My use of the word "precious" was as in "affectedly or excessively delicate, refined or nice".

Yup and yup.

My Father-in-law who emigrated to Canada from England at the tender age of 65 insists on using "ASS" at all opportunities and roaring with laughter... the problem is that the word "ASS" is not considered  delicate, refined or nice at all, in fact quite the reverse.  It is considered a rather rude word and not to be used in school, churches, children's events or tea parties

On the other hand you can say "bloody" all day long on this continent and no one would raise an eyebrow

DR George, I read many reviews of THE ARISTOCRATS when it came out, and they were all mixed. It's a set up for a host of comedians to complete a joke any way they like and most of them make it the filthiest joke they can. It didn't sound appealing to me when I read the reviews, but I'll be interested in your take on it.

Well, I certainly didn't hate it. ;) The kind of humor (being presented as humor...in that specific context) didn't offend me at all.  It was interesting, as Maria said, to "see comedians and the ins and outs of how they work."  But for me, there were more moments of "okay, this is getting old" than moments of laughter, which there were quite a few, just not as many.

But I also took THE ARISTOCRATS to be sort of a historical document on a couple of levels.  On one level, it's preserving and presenting to the general public a joke that is known primarily only by comics but seems to be known by every one of them.  It's a kind of "behind-the-scenes" history lesson.  On another level (to me, at least), it's also a visual document of many comedians performing today and a lot who don't (or won't ever) have their own DVDs/recording and won't be seen (known?) by future generations.  In a few years (when they start dying off), this is probably going to be one of the few times that they have been preserved for posterity and the greater general public will even know about them...they didn't interview only hugely successful comedians.  It's a little like a "Broadway:  The Golden Age" for comedians, but in reference to one joke...sort of.

"Bloody" is used in common language here too DR Vixmum.  "Bugger" is also in common usage  - particularly in NZ.
(No sheep reference intended).

Oddly perhaps, "Bloody" was not permitted on the Radio here before about 1970. And the word was "Beeped" in songs such as "The Battle Of New Orleans" and "Snoopy v. The Red Baron" a decade later.  Our "precious" years perhaps.

We watched "Mrs Henderson Presents" the other night. The "Midlands" reference is of course very British.

That's better than enighbors who asked me to help them calibrate their new HDTV. I went there, and they were complaining about how they couldn't see any difference between their standard TV picture on the new HDTV. In fact, they were considering taking back the set because the picture was worse than on their old set.

Turned out, they weren't watching on the high definition channels! They thought watching the standard signal on an HDTV made it high definition!

 ;D  I can understand the confusion.

Simon Cowell:  I find myself, more often than not, agreeing with him about the performances (??!!??!! @$#)%&), but he still manages to be offensive...making that asinine comment about Taylor's outfit looking like Clay Aiken.

From what I remember about Clay's attire on the show, he more often than not wore oxford (or other buttoned) shirts and slacks.

Simon is almost always the most astute of the three judges, but even he is ridiculous, inconsistent, and tone deaf from time to time. (For example, last week he praised Chris for being true to his singing nature. This week he chastised him for not switching it up and trying other styles. Which advice does he mean?)

As for the crack about Clay's attire, I do remember Clay wearing a brown leather jacket the week when "Grease" was one of his songs. This was near the end when they were singing more than one song per week, and they changed clothes to go with each number they sang. I remember Simon criticized Clay for wearing that outfit. The audience shouted him down for his disapproval.

I have to see if that is out on DVD here yet, the Midlands is where  Vixdad is from, Coventry to be specific.... he says "It was a grand place for a young lad to grow up, with statues of naked women on horseback every where you looked!"


My MIL will chastise  any one who says "bloody' in her house "Language!!"

Neat?  Did you say "neat"?  Man!  I haven't heard anyone use that word in decades.  

That's a 60s word, isn't it?  Either 60s or 70s?

Of course, these things come and go...just like the people at Grand Hotel....

And now we have Ron Weasley exclaiming "Bloody Hell!" at least once per "Harry Potter" film!
