LOL, it wasn't easy :)

ROTFL even though this post took up my whole comments page.

Oops, sorry. I have my comments on "brief" and I forget that not everyone else does. I usually post things like that seperately from the ping.

That is TOO TOO FUNNY!

:) :) :)

I’m going to go with....

1. James
2. Lauren
3. Scotty
4. Haley
5. Jacob

Lauren and Scotty, IMO, were super close, but his first song was so much stronger then his second that I gave the edge to Lauren.

Weird went to the main forum and found this

Post-Abortion Trauma (Steven Tyler)

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2715213/posts

Long before he won accolades as an American Idol judge, Steven Tyler was a bona-fide rock star, with all that that implied. In 1975, when he was in his late 20s and the lead singer for the band Aerosmith, Tyler persuaded the parents of his 14-year-old girlfriend, Julia Holcomb, to make him her legal guardian so that they could live together in Boston.

UGH! No wonder he gives me the creeps!

[retrokitten]

That whole story is just so....bizarre.

[silent_jonny]

Thanks, Mark :)

It sort of reminded me of Elvis and Priscilla. When she was a minor and he was much older and she came to the states to live with him.

[silent_jonny]

Wake up Jacob!!!! You are not winning this competition!!!

He sure thinks he is. He acts like he already has.

When he's finally kicked off the show (which I hope is tomorrow), no one will be more surprised than Jacob.

[retrokitten]

Yeah, that’s true. Also creepy.

[silent_jonny]

Thank you very much :)

[silent_jonny]

Anyone else watching “Custer’s Last Man” on the History Channel? It’s pretty good.

[silent_jonny]

Thank you :)

[silent_jonny]

The ickiest part of it is his gyrations.

Yes. Definitely, yes.

[silent_jonny]

Hip-swivels? My eyes!! X-(

LOL!

[silent_jonny]

LMAO!! Hi, Maggie!!!!!!!

[Netizen]

I was looking at a review on his memoir found this

The story of Aerosmith’s rise, fall and redemption is all here. Much of it is familiar from the band’s earlier authorized bio Walk This Way but told now from Tyler’s perspective. The most entertaining new story is about a woman who didn’t sleep with him: rocker Joan Jett. Tyler made a pass at her — or what amounts to a rock star’s pass — by showing up outside her hotel room buck naked one night. Jett blows him off with a riff on one of Aerosmith’s biggest hits: “I’m not into big 10-inch, honey.”

Those coming to the book only as American Idol fans might be disappointed by the relatively small amount of space devoted to the show. Besides, it’s clear Tyler’s decision to join Idol is best understood in the context of his long-running feud with Aerosmith: He’s a guy cheating on his girlfriend with her enemy, the perky, popular cheerleader.

Wake up Jacob!!!! You are not winning this competition!!!

He sure thinks he is. He acts like he already has.

Actually, the way he hangs on week after week, (every Thursday I think surely he'll go home tonight, but he doesn't,) I'm beginning to think he's right and he will win the whole danged thing.
