Here's the latest NY POST story which quotes former AI producer Nigel Lithgow stating that SAdam really was in the bottom 3..no way the show would mess with the results..

I don't doubt that at all. AI would have way, way too much to lose if they were ever found to have truly rigged the competition beyond their legalezed weasel word rules. (Specifically, their right to exclude votes they deem to be "robocalls".)

That said, the last two standing up there aren't necessarily the bottom 2. Pay careful attention to exactly what Ryan says -- if he doesn't specifically state that they are the bottom 2, odds are they aren't.

I just read Obama is going to be in the audience next week, good thing there are no crisis going on that he could be giving his attention too.

Frankly, I’d feel better knowing he was ignoring it.

Oh! We just gave the FP airplane to our perfect, adorable, precious grandson for his 1st BD. His daddy, my oldest, had one when he was little. 30 years ago...

This new version has lights and sound! I love finding FP for Josiah that his daddy had when he was little. Plane, clock, chatter phone, farm.....love it!

I'm shamelessly self-promoting.

I got the lighting right for once, but the flowers are slightly out of focus. However, I still thought this came out pretty.

Why would Adam give the judges any “attitude”? They praise him to high heavens every week!

My niece and nephew are 2 1/2 and it is fun finding stuff for them that I used to play with as a kid, too. I also had the chatter phone.

They really like books and I bought them Go, Dog, Go! and One, Fish, Two Fish, because they were my favorite Dr. Seuss books.

For their birthday in October, I’m going to try and find the Francis books and some of the Richard Scarry books. I loved those, too.

Beautiful! My hubby and oldest son dabble in photography. Right now, hubby is “into” birds. I didn’t realize there was a special lens for bird pics...but he found one!

I like your pic more than birds....very pretty!

Woo Hoo! I love Daughtry! Can't wait to hear his new stuff.

Here's some eye candy for the ladies...

Daughtry 8-9-08

I took this last summer at a concert at the state fair. He was awesome!

Thanks, Jrabbit. They have special EVERYTHING for photography. LOLOLOLOL

I honestly love photography, but it can get pricey. The prices of lenses alone can be insane!

I have a book about National Geographic photographers and one of them (Sam Abell, maybe? I don’t remember) had 1 camera and 2 lenses that he used to take the vast majority of his pictures. He also used mainly available light (no flash). I remind myself of that when I get the bug to go gadget crazy. LOL

I have found the http://www.bhphotovideo.com/ usually have the best prices and biggest selection of all things photography related.

Thank you! They did smell beautiful.

Are you getting all the rain we are? We had a brief break from rain for a couple of hours yesterday in the early evening when the sun came out.

Yeah... and way too long. I didn’t get a chance to mow all weekend, and I’ve been working late all week... so my lawn is starting to look “vacant lot” right about now... :(

Majie, let me know who they are—the ones who hurt you on purpose—and I’ll bust their chops!

(((Awww Thanks much!))))

But I can’t say...But You have helped take away alot of hurt just by Your willingness to come to my aid.

What we cant change,JESUS is able to,always!

HE’s bigger than the situation.

But Your kind words go along way. I’ll think back on them as boosts are needed during the situation.
