What is the phone number to vote for Taylor? I want to be sure I've been trying the right number.

OT: Just spun through the dial and caught a minute of Leno.

Gary Shandling looks like he just went 45 rounds with George Foreman.

I liked Dave Berry's live 24 blog entry for the ending : "Woo Hoo! Happy Ending!! Jack's going on an 18 month cruise!"

LOL, although it is probably only a mere 8 month cruise, as he will be out of there in the first episode of 2007.

Thank you Zguy. I'll be voting for Taylor, I really liked his rendition of "Something" and the last song he sang tonight.

I thought the vote count was supposed to be secret.

No, the results show will be aired from 8-10 PM tonight EST and PST and probably AST. You can do a news search for "american idol" about 10 minutes after 10 PM eastern time to see the official results though. If you want them a hair earlier, you can drop in on an American Idol chat room.
