With Paula gone too, all we’ll get is a hey dog! Dog you blew that one away. And Dawg, you didn’t bring it. sigh...

LOL!

And so American Idol returns to entertain and torment us for another season.

T’is nice to have one of my images immortalized in the lead image (Drama!). Much appreciated. And to stop Lil’Freep’s attempt at a three-peat will be a memory I will cherish until my dying days. ;-)

So what has been going since since we left off after Kris Allen’s win? Well, we have releases by Kris Allen, Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey, and Allison Iraheta.

Kris’ album, predictably, arrived with not too much fanfare. Adam, to the shock of nobody, came out in Rolling Stone magazine, released some songs, and all people could talk about was his appalling and clumsy performance at some awards show. Danny, to some surprise, signed with a country label. And Allison has arrived with her teen-rock album. So far of the singles I’ve heard, I like Allison’s the best.

Season 7’s Brooke White also came out with her release. I liked her single “Radio Radio” (she was a favorite of mine from that season, so all is well in that department). Then we have the comeback return of Katharine McPhee, who for some reason, chopped off her lovely brunette hair and has gone for a short blonde cut. Do not like.

Well, since the gay icon Ellen DeGeneres isn’t due to arrive until after these tryouts, I am tempted to check the trainwrecks and potential idols that are performing tonight. Hopefully there’ll be a live internet feed available somewhere.

Thank you!

Here's a Jim Croce song for you. Only it's more like "Alabama Snow" lately, LOL

Alabama Rain

I have 5 or 6 Harlan Coben books somewhere. I haven’t read them yet though :) I started reading one (Tell No One, I think) and it was so good that I got more.

[silent_jonny]

Okay :)

Hopefully there’ll be a live internet feed available somewhere.

Well, looks like this feed I used last season is still working...

Simon Cowell is leaving after this season. I can’t think of anyone who could take his place.

Jon Bon Jovi could be a good replacement ... It'll be tricky finding someone that people will like and who's opinion would be respected.

Good evening!

Thanks once again for the Idol thread.

I'd settle for someone to say they suck when they suck and be funny doing it.
