RE: last night's IDOL.

While i prefer adam singing ballads i thought he was incredible last night. Hopefully after what happened last week his fans will rally. And with the judges raves i'd be surprised if he wasn't #1. Although i still wonder if danny has more fans. My guess would be kris is going home tonight (that would be my choice). I thought adam and allison's duet was wonderful! I didn't hate Danny as much as DR MattH. Although i totally agree about that horrid scream at the end. Awful to listen to. But i agree with simon. Danny could do no wrong right now. There is absolutely no way he couldget voted out. He is hugely popular.

If anyone in my vicinity had been inhaling fingernail polish remover - EVEN I wouldn't look too bad!!!

I found a remover that doesn't smell too bad. If only I could find a polish that doesn't bother me, even better one that doesn't make Keith groan so loudly. I rarely use the stuff anymore cause it makes us both sick.

Sorry to read DR Matt's review of BRIDE WARS. I really want to get that from the library. I usually
like that genre of movie. And i do like the 2 leads. So i guess i'll see!

DR Jennifer - As for "DWTS" - "Blame" the Country Music/Rodeo fans. Lots of them, and very loyal. *And you might be surprised at how popular rodeo still is in some parts of this country - most definitely not a "nobody".

Our trash smells terrible from all the polish & remover

I really don't get why everyone is hating on the redheads. I find most of the time
they seem very nice and generous towards other players. I do get what DR
MBarnum was saying about the one girl's attitude (they do look like twins). But
i really don't take as her being mean to people who speak different languages.
Most of us watching have no idea what it is like to be on the race. They edit out
so much stuff. It's grueling and must be so frustrating. To have the taxi drivers
not even acknowledge you. I'm sure some of the drivers are shell shocked with
the camera crews. But i think any one of us would be frustrated if we had no
idea if we were going to the right place. And if nobody would even look at us.
Maybe she has less patience than other players. And probably other players are
getting upset but they are not showing it. But i just don't think her intentions are
mean. They have had some really mean players in the past. And i just don't think
this girl is like that. They've shown luke to have a real mean streak, which has
made me not care for him too much anymore. ANd i find they have been showing
tammy and victor as slightly spoiled kids. Anyhow i guess we will see what happens
on sunday. But for some reason i think a lot of people are gonna be upset if the
redheads win! one two three four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four

Keep in mind: The producers of "DWTS" would not pick a total unknown or "nobody" to compete on the show. If there is no fan base for a particular contestant, there is no potential audience, ratings point.

*And I'm sure that if a Canadian celebrity was on the show, there would be many US viewers asking, "Who is that?"

Good morning!

More overcast skies, coolish temperatures, and allegedly more rain this afternoon. It was misting when I went out to get the newspaper this morning, but that stopped some time ago. Once again, I'm enjoying all the fresh air.

Matt H. · « **Reply #71 on:** May 06, 2009, 07:43:05 AM »

I liked Allison a lot, but I would not be unhappy if she goes tonight and certainly I think Kris is the weakest of the four singers and deserves to leave. It MUST be one of those two tonight that will be leaving. Yes, I'd venture to say Danny is the most popular. He's got that middle-of-the-road safety in his singing and performance style that really can't alienate anyone. (I think he's a bit cocky, but that's just my take on him.) Adam is by far more talented and has a much more versatile voice, but his edginess will alienate a faction of the IDOL viewers. That's why I'm pretty sure Danny will win (a la Taylor Hicks a couple of seasons ago), but Adam will have the bigger career (a la Daughtry from the same year.)

Thanks for the musical info, DR JOSE. After I commented, I did get out my P/V score and realized that it was POSSIBLE!!!

You can tell how many shows I have spent in the PIT!!

I'll be tackling THE FRIENDS OF EDDIE COYLE for my work project today. Haven't seen this in decades and don't remember much about it at all. Should be an interesting afternoon of viewing.

I guess I'll do a little computer maintenance and then head down to check the mail and get ready to fix some lunch.

DR Jennifer, I'm shocked. Ty "a nobody"? Who does he HAVE to be? As for "Lil Kim", who the heck is SHE? Never heard of her. Of course, I run screaming bloody murder any time I'm confronted by anyone who bills himself or herself as "Lil" anything, so you can't go by me.

She looked more like a Rosie Perez wannabe than a "real" person.

Kerry · « **Reply #84 on:** May 06, 2009, 08:43:45 AM »

DR KERRY I did not know the history of the filming of RICH AND FAMOUS and party scene filmed at the home of Lon McCallister.....is he in the scene?

Jack, in answer to your question from last night, I don't think Lon McCallister is in the scene, but there are couple of extras that could be him. I wouldn't be surprised, at any rate.

Kerry · « **Reply #85 on:** May 06, 2009, 08:47:35 AM »

The mockingbirds, grackles and thrashers are all going crazy protecting their nests and babies at the moment. The fact that we've had a lot of high winds doesn't help them. There was one tree with three cats just lolling indolently on the sidewalk under it while all the birds were cackling away. The cats have gotten a few baby birds, and the birds steal the cats' food. Maybe I should beat them all up!

What I remember about "Rich and Famous" is the first review I read...and the critic mocking the seduction scene between Bissett and Lattanzi stating that it was very unbelievable that Ms. Bissett would ever be so desperate for sexual attention as to pick up someone so obviously "not" her type (i.e., "not heterosexual" was the implication). When I saw the movie, I found myself in complete agreement.

I'm about to walk over to the post office so I can buy a couple of books of the Fo'evah Stamp so I can avoid the two cent postal hike on Monday.

Gosh, I am so cheap...

Yes, there is. Tams should have sent you one.
