American Idol results 03/04/10
Four more contestants - two males and two females - were eliminated from the ninth season of American Idol tonight. Since the guys went first this week, they went first for tonight's elimination. John Park, who has a nice voice but seems to always pick the wrong song, was the first one to go. Joining … Continue reading American Idol results 03/04/10
American Idol Results 02/25/10
I have to admit: this has got to be the least talented bunch of contestants yet. Yeah, I know the judges keep saying it's the most talented, but I disagree. Out of the thousands of people that auditioned, these are the best 24? I don't think so. Maybe two each of the women and men … Continue reading American Idol Results 02/25/10
American Idol Season 9: Top 24
Finally! After what feels like the longest introductory series of programs I've ever seen, we have the Final 24*Idol contestants.

AP/VP: Oops
The headline was right, but there was a little problem with the score. Colts 31, Saints 17 I wish! The story was from the AP so I don't know whether it was wrong in the story or whether somebody at the Virginian-Pilot messed up. In any case, it's not Dewey defeats Truman but close 😉 … Continue reading AP/VP: Oops
Super Sunday
The New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts face off today in Super Bowl XLIV. It's been two weeks since the teams won their respective conferences and I have to say, the least hyped Super Bowl I can remember. Or maybe it's because my attention has been focused elsewhere. In any event, I'm looking forward … Continue reading Super Sunday
Friday fun: What is your winter sense?
With most of Virginia expecting snow, I thought this an appropriate quiz 😉 Your Winter Sense is Sight You are a very visual person, and some of your strongest memories are around things you've seen in your life. You simply like the way winter looks. This season may seem dead to most people, but it's … Continue reading Friday fun: What is your winter sense?

The team heads to the Super Bowl for the first time in its 43-year existence. They face the Indianapolis Colts, who earlier in the day, defeated … Continue reading Super Bowl XLIV: Saints versus Colts
