It started out o.k., I came down to my game room before it started. Needed another cup of coffee and went up to put a pot on. Why did I go into the living room?

There they were, butchering Beatles' songs. While I do like the Beatles, they really aren't my favorite band, still, it's just wrong what they're doing to their songs.

Reminds me of a story, a guy goes to the Doctor and tells him about this horrible pain he gets when he lifts his arm over his head, Doctor says don't do that!

Why do I let myself watch it?

Although they get very talented singers on the show, they don't get musicians that actually write their own stuff Ox. Karaoke singers, they are 10, but karaoke 10, not musicians. Of course this is just my humble opinion :shock:

I got into a mildly heated discussion with wifey. I made the statement, " There is only one American Idol who really became a star, Carrie Underwood." Her response was, Jennifer Hudson, (is that right?) is a star, she won an Oscar.

To which I replied, "Oh yeah, she's doing Weight Watchers commercials." She didn't have a response.

Does my heart good to see you're not watching Rez.

1st season I thought it was funny, how people with terrible voice would think the can sing. I stopped watching when the contest actually started.

Just gotta chime in that I hate American Idol.

I like watching the girls on Telemundo with their big boobies. :mrgreen:

Gees, Rez, keep it down. We don't want to get him worked up. He's been real quiet lately.

We know that's not gonna last, don't encourage it, there's no telling what could happen!

Hail Zod!

:lol: thanks guys. I'm getting an ego.

80 degrees is fine, I'd like 70, but not 90.

Crappy week at work.

I got 2 more days this week...Friday and Saturday - my regular schedule. Tomorrow's gonna be a nightmare, Saturday might be easier than Friday as usual. Friday usually ends up being 13 to 14 hr day :?
