They were all born in the 80s and these are the songs that have chosen!!!!  What is up with that? :-(   Come on…pick some good songs.  Bad choices.

  • Ramiele Mulabay - pitchy and terrible.  Randy Jackson called it right.  Very much in danger tonight.
  • Jason Castro – don’t know if I’m crazy about the song (and I really like Sting), but Jason can sing!
  • Syesha Mercado – she sang it – but I’m still bored with it. 
  • Chikezie – easily the most improved from the beginning of the competition BUT once again, what is up with the song selections.
  • Brooke White- beginning (oops).  Gorgeous voice.  I agree with Randy Jackson 100% – weird arrangement – should have stuck with just her and piano.  (What is up with Paula Abdul’s arm/glove sleeve…is she cat-woman?)
  • Michael Johns – best so far tonight (and best for Michael).  Excellent song choice.  What is up with Michael and Queen?  Not hinting at anything :-) – just asking.
  • Carly Smithson- ending…not so much.  But I think she is awesome!  I think the judges are judging her more harshly than others.  Come on…contrast criteria between Carly and Ramiele!!
  • David Archuleta – the kid has skills, but I don’t like the song.  “Sounds like something he sang in show choir in high school” – Kelly Barrington.  If David sings the phone book…I WILL NOT fall in love with it (thank you Paula).  “Theme-park performance” - got to agree with that.
  • Kristy Lee Cook- Is this an attempt to invoke a Patriotic sentimentality to stay in the show?  Pitchy.  Take it to a county fair!!! 
  • David Cook – Brilliant.  Loved it.  “I like him better than Chris Daughtery” – Kelly Barrington.  Those are fighting words.  Having some tension in the house this week!  I think Paula is about to kiss him.

My Dad’s Birthday

Posted: March 25, 2008 in Family, Uncategorized

This is my dad.  Chuck – with a rare smile.  Today is his 59th birthday (one to go before the big 6 – 0!).  Dad…I love you.  Thanks for insisting that while I was growing up in your house that your role to me would be father before friend.  And now that I’m out of your home, that you have become both.  Happy birthday.
