ever since i got my laptop
bailey hates it. she's jealous of it. she's been trying to find a way to get around it to her favorite place in the world - my lap.
she finally said "screw it" and found a way...
you have no idea how hard this makes it to play solitare...

this week on "why you won't be my next american idol"....
welcome to a very special episode of "why you won't be my next american idol". i'm your very smart, talented, clairvoyant karen seacrest. i apologize for not getting this to you sooner - but i was celebrating the night away because i - for once - ACCURATELY PICKED DAVID COOK AS THE WINNER!!! yeah me!
honestly - i don't know what everyone is so suprised about. it seemed like a no brainer to me.
so - let's not beat around the bush. david archuletta - you won't be my next american idol for the following reasons:
1. you have no range. you can only sing the powerful ballads that people sing on telethons. every song you sing sounds exactly the same.
2. you may be young - but you are by no means hip or marketable.
3. your daddy spent too much time training you on stage presence - and not enough time training you to have a personality.
4. and because lindsey's husband is right and you do sound like vera di milo (performed by jim carrey on in living color) when you talk - and it's freaky!!!
and that means that DAVID COOK - YOU ARE MY NEXT AMERICAN IDOL! and nina already wants your first cd. so that's one cd sold...
and your from missouri - so that's a bonus. i will have to work on you being a royals fan though....
until next year - this is karen seacrest - out...

idol finale...
nina won't shut up about the jonas brothers. nick jonas is oh so dreamy...
and that archletta performace on "it's too late to pologise" sucked. i hate that song. anyone notice how he didn't even sing real words? just aaaahhhhs.
and i guess jordan sparks is feeling better...
edit - digging the jack black, ben stiller, robert downy, gladis knight thing way more than celine and elvis last year. lmao...
edit - george michael looks terrible. he looks like a george michael impersonator...
edit - and now we're waiting. you know - i appreciate george michael music more than i used too. but i couldn't watch him perform..
david cook's guitar hero was better than david archuletta. david wasn't even a sperm when that movie came out...
waiting. fluffy comments. can we just get to the results. wait - did simon just admit wrongness?? david cook must be winning because simon wouldn't take it back otherwise...
there's the envelope...
certified blah blah blah...
here we go.
winner
is
YES!!!!!!!!!!!

idol thoughts...
round one. david cook. singing u2. still haven't found what i'm looking for. i always hated u2 back in the day. have a better appreciation for them now. this guy is such a rock star. i'd pay to see him concert. that was good. i liked that. vote for david cook!
wait, did randy just say that this is the duel of 2007??
edited to add.
round one. david archuletta. don't let the son go down on me. is his daddy aware that this was an elton john song? and it was performed with george michael?? i bet if they had let him backstage - he would have thrown a fit. this kid's a 50 year old man in a 17 year old body. i don't like him. he's dancing like he has to go potty.
round one winner. cook. clearly.
edited again. are the judges clearly on something. that wasn't unbelievable. or flawless. or the best he's done so far. ick. and simon's speaking bullshit. oh look. he's crying. BE A MAN ARCHULETTA!!!
edited AGAIN.
spelling "sun" - S-O-N in my archuletta commentary and then talking about his daddy - was totally an accidental freudian slip. i swear.
more editing.
round two - david cook rocked AGAIN. and the judges are on smack.
david archuletta sounds weird. aaaaaahhhhhhaahhhahhhhh. what is that?? he has no range. none. has he managed to successfully do an upbeat song all season? NO.
and that song kinda reminded me of "don't cry out loud" for some reason. ICK.
i'm going to add randy mentioning "singing the phone book" to my drinking game. he's used that about 30 times this season.
round 2 - VOTE FOR DAVID COOK. ARCHIE SUCKS!
editing again...
david cook. collective soul. i love this song. i literally have chills right now. how can you deny that this man has an abundance of talent? he's far more marketable. have we not learned anything from the success of daughtry? that was beautiful. now he's crying. aw. how sweet. at least that was an emotional performance. i FELT that. so his crying is justified.
paula's standing again. someone clue her to her seat please. and i think simon's a stupid head...
edit again.
okay - we had to take a break to go get nina from girl scouts. we're back with archuletta doing imagine. haven't we seen this before? he's kinda all over the place. and once again. totally not upbeat. this kid has zero range. he's not a pop star. he's a "very special episode telethon performance" performer. and his mouth is kinda shaped funny. and he has pig nostrils.
and i felt zero chills.
randy's on drugs. he was pointing in the wrong direction when he said the best singer in the season was right there. oh man. he's crying again. he has zero personality or originality. and have you seen the mayor of the town he comes from???
if david cook doesn't win - i'm losing faith in america...
bet you guys are wishing i never got this laptop...

nkotb reunion
so i watched one of the performances from the today show today. something about 30-35 year old women screaming like 13 year olds is kinda scary...
i'm still bitter about their lack of coming to st. louis....

and just out of curiousity...
is anyone still reading my babble? i know i let this thing go for awhile - but i'm back now. at an almost annoying state. but i feel like i'm talking to myself...
csi season finale
i saw that coming when i heard it was warrick's last episode. but that ending kinda turned my stomach. i found it very disturbing for some reason.
now i realize that there was a strike that disrupted the season and all - but i found this season to be, overall, quite diappointing. from the beginning. even before the strike. the conclusion to the sarah story. revisiting the child prodogy storyline. the green blood people. last week's episode with the comedy show (i bailed halfway through that one. and the warrick/mob storyline. all not their best stuff.
dear writers of csi - you better do a better job next season. i've been a faithful viewer for 8 seasons now. don't make me regret it by throwing it all away with a second bad season in a row...

this week on "why you won't be my next american idol"...
welcome to why you won't be my next american idol. i'm your host - an almost perfectly punctual karen seacrest.
it's finally the time we've all been waiting for. the night where the prediction i made oh so many weeks ago has come to past. it is - the season - of the davids. but before we go there - we have business to address first....
this week on "why you won't be my next american idol" we say so long to someone who in all honestly shouldn't have been in the top three in the first place. that's right. hit the road syesha mercado. syesha - you won't be my next american idol because the cycle 9 winner of america's next top model was saleisha stowers. it's too easy to confuse the two of you. you kinda look a little alike. you both have that rihanna thing going on. and we don't even need to mention how similar your names are. you can't both win reality shows where the theme is finding the best "insert talent here" in america. it's just too weird!
so that leaves david. and david. i really hope david wins. david cook of course. he rocks. and he's from missouri. and there has yet to be any weird news hit about david cook. or his dad. and he's just plain better!
vote for david cook!!!!
until next week when we crown david cook the next american idol and i take the cake in my idol bracket by accurately predicting the winner for the first time - this is karen seacrest. out.

earthquakes
i will no longer complain about feeling the little quakes we continue to have since last month's bigger quake. what happened in china is horrible. and since the first 7.9 this morning, they have had a dozen aftershocks that were all more than 5.0 - one that was over 6.0.
our 2's, 3's, and 4's are nothing...

ps, i love you
last nite i watched ps i love you with hillary swank. it was pretty good. not as good as the book. but not horrible either.
anyway - i never realized how much hillary swank and jennifer garner looked alike!! it's almost freaky. especially when you compare the performances in ps i love you with catch and release. as a matter of fact, i was watching catch and release yesterday morning and when nina walked into the room last night, she thought it was the same movie i had watched earlier that day and wondered why i was watching it again...

irony can be defined...
by flipping channels and finding dora the explorer on the spanish channel. it was completely transplated into spanish. except for the parts were dora normally tries to teach the viewers simple spanish words and phrases - those parts were in english....
