{Before I get started: Sue - first of all, I know I owe you doggie biscuits. Your stupid-ass team won fair and square, and while I’m LATE, I’m not welching on my bet. I’m just waiting to see if I’m sending for two or for one - did Mr. Nim get his way? Or are the pants firmly belted at your waist? Second of all - Leave me the fuck alone. If I want to watch American Idol, I’m going to watch American Idol. So shut up.}

First of all. I think dred guy is so fucking adorable. I just love his face. I like long hair - I don’t necessarily like it in dreds. But there’s something about long hair on guys that I find really [cute?]
I don’t know that I think he’s all that great. Other than by his eyes, and white teeth, and prettiness, I’m not really moved by him. I also didn’t want to know that dreds “come off.” Gross.
[Simon called him brilliant! I just do not share that man's taste.]
I told E when we started this show that I was not voting, but she could.
Instead, I am voting for 3 people.
1) Little David. (David A.) I wasn’t thrilled with his version of Imagine last week, with everyone else falling all over their puddles of drool - but tonight - the little boy, in my opinion, was amazing. Just amazing.
2) The other little boy. The gay one. I hated his interview, and I hated his text-message-talk. And I was less than thrilled with his attitude with Simon afterward. But his performance, in my opinion, rocked.
3) Uh, that cute boy? The one who did The Breakfast Club Song? I think his name is Michael [Recap says he's Michael Johns]. I thought he did a great job.
4) {yeah. from my #s, it looks like I’m not voting for David A., I’m voting for the Hello dude. David A. doesn’t need me.}
Others who I think were good but who don’t need my vote: “Hello” (the Lionel Richie song) - holy shit. He was really amazing. It gave me chills; Long Hair Boy. Even if his dred did fall off. He didn’t give me chills, but he’s not going anywhere.
People who should go bye-bye: Chikezie … i didn’t think it was as unique as those I mentioned above. It wasn’t different-enough. Luke … whoever thinks that Wham should be given another shot is just totally fucked up. No way.

Ummm…. I have newscorp stock options. Can I beg you to vote more and watch more Idol?
It’s two dogs. Buster is a keeper.
Careful what you wish for. This dog adventure’s enough to send me screaming.

The only song I heard last night that I MIGHT consider downloading was Hello. That just floored me.
I loved Imagine and was much MUCH less impressed with the Phil Collins this week.
Dred Boy — I close my eyes when he sings. He is odd looking, but has a nice voice. Prefer to listen than watch.
Michael John is awesome.
Wow. It never occurred to me to download the songs. I am not much a fan of a) live music or b) covers. I would *only* consider downloading Hello so Beloved could hear it. He did not watch the show with us.
I alway catch the American Idol videos and results on this site.

They are on the East coast and get the show several hours before it is broadcast where I live. Great stories as well
