                    And this is proven quite often.  Last year's winner, Taylor Hicks, is a 
                
                perfect example.  Not that he isn't a good performer, it's just that there were so many more who were better singers and performers...

                I must admit that I do watch--every week.  Somehow, I am drawn to it.  I always did love talent shows.   In this case, I think that perhaps Simon needs to introduce a "Gong" to take care of the situation.   By the way, is it just me or does Sanjaya look like he might be a relative of Condoleezza Rice?

                I don't watch but know many that do. Talion was right in his assessment that it is not so much a contest of talent.......but rather that of popularity.

                    I know I will.  Your style is intriguing.  A modern local colorist.  
                
                Oh, and don't worry about missing out on 'American Idol'.  It's a passing fancy...

                I don't watch this show so I don't know what you're talking about.  However, I do know about Trump's hair.  I'm smiling.  By the way, I just put up chapter three of Johnny Says.  I separated it, into three posts if you don't have time to read it at one go.  I hope you'll enjoy it.  --Joy!Mary

                    No problem, afzal.  I wish I could say something good about his performance
                
                but, alas, I cannot...
