Let's play "Guess what's in Paula's cup!"

Since the man who discovered LSD just died... and she's sentimental.

Oh I hope not. Tonight I watched the show on DVR after getting off the tractor. I was tired and FF through David Cook. I could NOT handle him tonight. He was just kind of screaming to me. But hey, might still have the tractor roaring in my ears!

Little David however seems to have lost his voice down low. It just air coming out with no resonance. Was disappointed in him.

Syesha was the only entertainment tonight. I thought she stole the show as far as performance and stage appeal.

Brooke appeared to me to be struggling to bring strength to her voice. She would be great as a dinner singer.

Jason, bless his heart, is so himself that I just get a kick out of him. He has one style of performance and if you don’t like it, too bad. I love his facial expressions. I bet Simon is having nightmares about him winning. He definitely has his appeal, but I’m not thinking that it is particularly his singing ability. He’s a charmer.

I thought he was arrogant in the beginning, trying to be the tough rocker guy or something.. but it seemed once he toned down his hair, like in the graphic, he lost the arrogance and attitude (the hair had 'attitude' too!) IMO. I think he has a h*ll of a voice. It should've been between him and Michael Johns, Michael was far better than little David.

Syesha seems great for Broadway which Simon always alludes to. David Cook will win!!! LOL

“Head!” I loved that movie! Didn’t it have a wild effect of the 4 jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge? I bet now I would think it was stupid, but when I saw it once in my teens on TV I thought it was cool!

My first crush at age 8 was Mickey Dolenz. ~swoon~

In second grade, every girl in the class except me and Ruthann had a crush on Davy Jones. We were the only ones in love with Mickey.

I did get a chance to have a very brief conversation with him about 10 years later. LOL!

My rankings:

1. David C.(consistent)
2. Syesha(good performer and a good singer when she keeps the screeching to a minimum)
3. David A.(mediocre performances tonight but he still has the best voice left in the contest)
4. Brooke(one good performance and one bad)
5. Jason(mediocre performances and still not much of a voice)

Who should go: Jason
Who will go: I think Jason’s time is up. Toss up between him and Brooke though.

Jason definitely seems to only have the one style. Tonight I was seeing a wedding/lounge singer in him. The charm is the eyes I think, definitely not the greatest voice.

Count me in the Davy column! I was 10 or 11 yrs. old. My sister, 12, loved Mickey! I had a Monkees sweatshirt, wish I had kept it.

Please don't destroy the fantasies of our inner 7-yr-olds with that picture! Let's let him stay like this forever:

“”I’m not a fan of Mr. Diamond—even though I own all of his albums. He doesn’t sing for me or my campaign. He’s not the same entertainer that I knew 20 years ago.””

I didn't get that when I first read it. When the nes came on, then I understood! :)

Obama isn't much of a politician if he didn't pick up on the changes throughout the past 20 years.

I am like a female chauvinist pig when I watch him cook.

Not that there's anything wrong with that....

I haven’t been to a movie theater in two years—but I’m going for that one!

And possibly for the new Narnia movie :)

I want to see those 2 as well, and ahem I can’t believe you didn’t say this one, but I want to see Speedracer too. :) My face is slightly embarrassed right now, but I loved the cartoon. I also want to see Get Smart when it comes out.

Carly Smithson: Voters 'Idol'-ize boys more than girls

I guess that explains why women have won 4 out of 6 years. LOL Voters just didn't connect with her. imo
