I awoke Saturday to an overcast day and a bit of drizzle. With over 200 RSVPs for my third annual Memorial Day bash, I was a little panicked. A quick check of the various local weather reports (note: don't trust Google's weather reports - it showed rain all day) soon calmed me and sure enough, … Continue reading 3rd Annual Memorial Day Bash roundup

Fun quiz: Yankee or Dixie
OK, so I'm going to be tied up today getting ready for tomorrow's party and I don't feel like writing anything heavy. Somebody sent me this quiz a couple of weeks ago and I thought it was fun. Head on over and take the quiz here. Report your results in the comments. Funny - I've … Continue reading Fun quiz: Yankee or Dixie
American Idol Season 7 Winner: David!
Well, of course the winnner was David 🙂 The only question was which David. Two hours to get to the answer. Thank goodness for TiVo. I only had to watch about 90 minutes - and no commercials 😉 The show opened with a performance by the Top 12 - and a whole bunch of other … Continue reading American Idol Season 7 Winner: David!
American Idol Finale – and a prediction
Tuesday night's show matched rocker David Cooke against wonderkid David Archuleta. Gotta admit that the opening with boxing announcer Michael Butler was pretty cool 🙂 Sticking with the boxing theme, the two Davids squared off for three rounds of competition. Archuleta won the coin toss and elected to go second. In the first round, the … Continue reading American Idol Finale – and a prediction

American Idol Results 05/14/08: Down to 2
Last night, the three remaining contestants each sang three songs: one chosen by the judges, one chosen by the contestant and one chosen by the show's producers. Wonderkid David Archuleta did a decent job with his three, although his own choice was a bit strange. Syesha - well, let's just say she didn't give me … Continue reading American Idol Results 05/14/08: Down to 2
Quick update
I've got a full day today with the funeral. More to come. ============ Hanging out with 1,500+ Clinton supporters yesterday certainly was the spirit boost I - and probably all of us - needed. What was even more awesome was the opportunity to meet and chat briefly with Senator Clinton. And yes, she wished me … Continue reading Quick update
American Idol 05/06/07: Predictions
OK, so I'm not going to be able to do my results post at a reasonable time tomorrow so I'm sitting here watching tonight's show. Each of the contestants performed two songs from the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame catalog. You'd think that, given the size of that catalog, there would be some awesome … Continue reading American Idol 05/06/07: Predictions

American Idol Results 04/30/08: The Final Four
The music of Neil Diamond was featured last night. Perhaps I should have followed anonymous' advice and rented Lost and Found 😦 If that weren't bad enough, tonight's opening medley can only be described as horrible. But watching AI is a little bit like watching a wreck - I just can't help myself. This was … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/30/08: The Final Four
