Mail back to you :)

Sorry, I only know the real names of the ones I like. ;O)

[retrokitten]

The only men who would pluck/wax/tweeze their eyebrows are men who have a unibrow.

That pic you posted is just crazy. He looks like a female impersonator.

[silent_jonny]

And no proof that they don't

They supported Bobby--he lost.

They supported Brenna--she lost.

They also like to take credit for Scott Savol making it as far as he did last year, but Scott has a surprisingly large fan base who were very vocal in their support. They deserve the credit for that, not VFTW.

[StrictTime]

Can you believe that he has the guts to do that to his eyebrows and then show up in a locker room? But since he plays for San Fran, I guess it kind of makes him popular...

[doug from upland]

I'm glad there was a previous response. I would be clueless.

[doug from upland]

Thanks.

Going home ...

I was sad for Ayla, straight "A" student and a hard worker. She didn't sing bad at all. There's so much talent ahead of her someone had to go.

Maybe she'll get drafted by the WNBA and be the first non-lesbian pin-up-girl.

I totally disagree with Jonny that the men are better...the girls rule. Lisa's my pick.

[retrokitten]

Since things are mildy tense in here, I'll tell a dumb story (I have tons!).

On the Weight Watchers message board one day a woman was telling about how her husband heard the song "Hollaback Girl" for the first time.

Instead of hearing, "I ain't no hollaback girl", he thought she was saying, "I ain't no haul a fat girl." That had me laughing for half an hour! I think of it every time I hear that song now!

[silent_jonny]

Who is that?

[retrokitten]

No, I can't. It hard to look at. LOL

[silent_jonny]

He looks like a female impersonator.

With fake eyelashes :o

[Apple Blossom]

I'm sure they're just doing this for ratings! Sad to play with someone like that. I'm not sure he'd have the talent needed even in 5-10 years! It's barely good karioke!

[retrokitten]

I totally disagree with Jonny that the men are better...the girls rule. Lisa's my pick.

I like the men better this year, too. Lisa has a great voice, but she needs to step it up a notch, IMO. Pick something young and upbeat. Hopefully, Stevie Wonder week will help her out some.

[Clint N. Suhks]

We can't know...only speculate. At some point the worst glaringly sicks out, like Brenna, and get no votes other than by VFTB.

And I totally think Scott was helped but would agree not totally supported by those morons.

[silent_jonny]

Since things are mildy tense in here

I know. I apologize for that :-/

Instead of hearing, "I ain't no hollaback girl", he thought she was saying, "I ain't no haul a fat girl."

LOL--you've ruined the song forever now :-D

[Apple Blossom]

This was probably the first time Ayla worked hard for something and it didn't go her way. Simon pointed that out early in the competition. She works hard (practices, like basketball) to get good at something. I think it's great that this happened now, when she's so young, than later when it's something really big. She has a lot of life ahead, a scholarship, etc. She should get the education and pursue whatever she wants later. She has the drive and knows what it takes, she'll be sucessful at anything.

[Clint N. Suhks]

What? Are you a Kevin gal? Please don't say Ace, his Falsetto made my ears bleed last night.

[conservativebabe]

I was signing off, but here I still am, geez.

Anyway, I was thinking today that it would be fun to try to get some IL FReepers together this spring or summer for a Cubs game or maybe a trip to Great America or something.

What do you think?
