I admit it: I'm a loser and I watch American Idol. If you don't, trust me you'll be glad when you have your life review in heaven, but I can't help myself. My favorite part is when Simon says something condescending to Paula but he pronounces her name "Pole-ah". Haha, it makes me laugh every time.
I'm pretty sad right now because my favorite, Blake, sucked real bad. What was he DOING? Maybe it's just that I don't have surround sound anymore, but damn, he sounded like crap in my living room. Except for the beat-boxing - I dig that always. But Jordin, damn her, was awesome and made Blake look like a chump, especially on the final "special new" song.
Which, by the way, was a piece of shit song. That thing won a contest? Are you kidding me? I almost passed out from the sheer weight of my nonplussed-ness. "This is My Now", I think it was called? GAG ME.
Anyway, the show sucked and Jordin's gonna win, and blah. The only thing I got out of the show tonight was the discovery that Sunny LOVES green beans. She has learned that the only way to get a treat is to sit perfectly still for very long periods of time and to stare directly at my face. It disturbs me deeply. She did that for the entire hour I was watching Idol and all I had left of my dinner at the end was about five green beans. She stared at me, stared at the beans, back and forth only with her eyes, and essentially attempted to hypnotize me into feeding them to her, which of course I did, one at a time. She acted like I was spooning her giant spoonfuls of shredded pork in gravy. Weirdo.

My cat Kira loves lettuce. How weird is that?
When I make a sandwich, I have to keep giving her pieces of lettuce, or else she will swipe it off my sandwich.

I've stopped watching AI ever since... oh who am I kidding, I've never watched AI. :-)
Say, is that something I should mention in my dating profile that women might be impressed by?

Lettuce, green beans? thats nothing, my cat eats Doritos!
I don't watch American Idol but "Jordin"? Is that the new way to spell Jordan? Which leades me to the question, Will your dear readers get a rant about the stupid-ass names people give their kids nowadays?

I'm glad the finale was Blake and Jordin, because after Chris S. and Gina got eliminated, they were the only reasons I watched. Well, except for Haley's legs, but still. But it seemed like they had set up the whole show for Jordin to win, because I don't think they really want to produce an album with Blake, even though he would make a way better Idol than any of the past non-Kelly-or-Carrie Idols. So I think Blake was set up to take the fall for Jordin last night, or at least that's how it seemed to me.
Oh, and I kinda actually liked the song. :)

OK, so I agree it has to be Jordin, and I can see how a girl would loves her some Blake, and I get that from 19 Entertainment's POV it's better to have a younger winner than an older one. And the third-place finisher had a big advantage because she's an experienced backup singer; also, she's 29 and it turned everybody off when the judges wouldn't shut up about how great she is. But Melinda Doolittle is the best singer in Idol history, isn't she?
B, what's the point of having a song competition if the winner turns out to be the same song we've been hearing in all the other finals? I agree with Sunny that green beans are a total sensory delight compared to that song.

I didn't watch it last night (disappointed with Melinda getting eliminated), but I'll tune in just to watch Simon.
Gawd, he's hot!

No no, Rachel, it's "Pole-er". And yeah, I had to rewrite the song to "This is my Cow" just to get through the lyrics the second time, but the tune was kinda catchy, dawg. But not when Blake "sang" it.

The contract sucks, so he's better off not winning. I mean, the other winners aren't doing all that great, except the first one. Being in the top 10 is good enough to get you the publicity you need to build a career.

Sometimes I think it's not so much what the food is that pets want but that it's your food, that they aren't allowed. IOW, pure contrariness.
