2008 Posting

Well, I have not posted in a long time. I guess it is because I have felt so inspired, and then so uninspired at the same time. The two X themselves out and there we have the basis of apathy. I do know one thing. I will never ever order anything from Francesca's in Newark on McWhorter's street. Here are my reasons:

Had a sandwich once with a worm in it
Ordered a few pizzas for people coming over and there were chewed chicken bones on it
Many orders came cold and incorrect
If you order vinegar on the side, which comes with the sandwich they charge .75
Everytime you call to complain about the bad service or food, the manager says he cannot talk to you since he is so busy.

The last straw was a week ago. Ordered some food for people. One was a mushroom pie and when it got here it had about 8 mushrooms on it. The other pies were cold. I called to speak with the manager and of course the response was that he was too busy to speak with me..So I became quite angry...I demanded that he call me back and then things became quite heated. Suffice to say there was a lot of name calling and he refused to take back the order...I did what any civil man would do...I stopped payment on the credit card and will sign an affidavit about what a loser he is...Well, my goal is to put that loser out of business in 2008..That said..

The Giants Suck

American Idol Finale 2007

Opens tonight with Randy dressed as Michael Jackson..Simon pointing at Paula's nose which is broken and caked with makeup..Ryan made a joke about the female dog being ok...He said the bitch was ok. They are going into a retrospective..showing how Blake and Jordin came from the same city of Seattle...

They are flipping a coin to see who goes first....Blake sings first..A song they have sung before, one they have not, and the idol song they will record...

Blake singing Shot through the heart...Doing his this....His voice is very weak...but it is original and in a stale Blake way...Doing all the beat spitting...Running around too much and he cannot keep up with the song..Cheese fries anyone.7..I just am tired of it..Randy said...10 for the beat boxing, singing was ok...Paula said something to show that she is strung out on pain killers... Simon said the singing was flat...

Jordin Sparx....Fighter by Christina...Once again I do not know the song which may hurt her... She is singing it well and you can clearly see that she is going to go on and produce a lot of number one hits..She is the Kelly Clarkson...The heir apparent. 10...I have heard of the song.. She looks good too..Randy said was not the greatest but your voice is stellar..Paula said the same thing...Simon said great you chose a younger song but weak in the middle. Calls round one to Blake...Paula said tie, and Randy said vocals to Jordin, and showmanship to Blake...

Blake singing She Will Be Loved..Good song for him...but he is a little flat and not strong...Just like I said before..Wearing his trade mark sweater.....Give it an 8....Some parts are in key but some are not..Randy said great song and nice vocal...Paula said you got into this...Simon said it was good and safe not as good as the first and it makes no impact...

Jordin...A Broken Wing...Voice very controlled..and she is getting towards the end and the big stanza and it sounds really good...Really good...10...Randy said you are the most talented and it was flawless and better than the original...Paula said you look great and sound great..Simon said Now that was good...

Blake...Singing the song written by two dudes called this is my now...Blake. I am just confused by this song...or at least the start...Ok the song is now going on and I am still very confused..The song sucks..maybe it is Blake...either the song is bad or Blake is flat...ouch....7....Randy said it was pretty good...Not great..Paula said it was a good job..Simon said it was odd..Not a bad song but not something great....

Jordin Sparx singing the same stupid song. If she makes this song interesting she should win..There was a commotion in the middle from the crowd..She is singing it really good but the song just sucks...it has no cadence and no flow....I think the writers were in love with the words and had no idea what the thing sounded like..Jordin should win the competition...Damn this song sux...9... Jordin crying at the end...Looked like a fake cry...cause she recovered fast..Randy....You were the best singer tonight...Paula said frickin...then said nothing..Simon said I was wrong about last week..and this is a singing show and you wiped the floor with Blake...I hope she wins at lest there will be some justice...There really is no competition and the title should go to her..

American Idol-Final Three

Although there are reports that Blake has already been selected as the sacrificial lamb by Fox Execs tonight, he should be going home anyway. Last week Lakisha was a bit of a surprise for the few of us that hold out hopes that it will truly be about the singing one day.

A scruffy Seacrest takes the stage tonight.. The judges pick, Producers pick, and each singer picks a song.

Jordin Sparx..Wishing on a Star picked by Simon. Pitchy in the first line but she seems to be getting into it..This was a good pick for her voice...After the first line she hit it out of the park..10.. She could record that song..Randy said she is in it to wind it..Said it was a nice run at the end. Paula said Simon picked a nice song. Simon said it was brilliant when she sung it but he did not like the arrangement. Then she acted a little phony with Ryan at the end.

Blake is looking a little sweet..Paula picked Roxanne..A lot of echo and reverb on the mic to enhance his voice... Hard song to sing and when he gets to the chorus he could not hit the note and took a lower octave..After that he became pitchy...All in all not too bad..7..Randy said it was hot..Paula said you were fantastic...Simon said it was not earth shattering..Said it was good not great...The crowd boo'd like the always do Simon..

Melinda Doolittle...Picked by Randy...I believe in you and me... This could be a great song for her..Starting off slow and in key..Her voice is very very in control. The end will make her or break her..So far so good..I think she changed the song a bit and it is gonna cost her...never hit the big spot...I think she did great and I give her about a 10...Randy said it was hot..Paula said you were great, best performance..Simon said it was difficult to sing and her best performance in the last 4 weeks..

Simon asked Ryan if he was drunk..Ryan looks shaken by the comment.

Jordin Sparx She works hard for the money....Starting off strong...she is walking around a lot and she is doing a good job staying in key but it is not a great choice of song and I wonder why they chose.. She sung it well..Have to give her a 10..Randy said it was hot...Paula said it was fantastic..Simon said it was a good performance but once again the arrangement was not that great....

Blake Lewis..Maroon Five...This Love... Good choice for his voice..Singing it well but his voice does not compare and he is doing the beat boxing in the middle..He is done being original and now is just plain ass cheesy...At the end he is yelling a bit to be heard..8...Randy said it was a good vibe for him...Paula said it is a good nite for him..Simon said he sounded comfortable..

Melinda Doolittle...Nutbush City Limits...Not sure what song this is..What a choice..Singing it really good but the song sucks ass.. I do not think a lot of people know what this song is and that stinks...Wow she is really singing it hard and well...10..Randy said...once again another stellar performance...Paula said did you have fun..Simon said it was another brilliant performance....

Last three songs are by the crew themselves so it should be their favorite songs...

Jordin Sparx...Missed what song it was...She is very controlled and the song choice is good for her cause it allows the soft and the strong in her voice to be showcased...This song could end up being the song that takes her to the prize...10...Randy said great performance, best performance for her tonight..Paula said nothing....Simon said it was sung well but it was such an old song he did not like it..

Blake...Robin Thicke Get you Alone.. He should have done the better song...I am not loving the choice and he is I don't know what to say..7..Randy said it was ok, cool..Paula said it was three great performances..Simon said I actually really liked that..You take a risk and that is what he likes about him...

Melinda Doolittle...I'm a Woman..Odd choice for a song...There is a lot of talking in this song at the start..She is singing it well..Very well put together...the back girls came out and she sang with them.. A nice homage to where she came from...10..Randy said he is seeing the range of Melinda Doolittle..Paula said you are stepping out..Simon said..Love the strip tease..said if he has to give the award for the most consistent every week...It is her...

We should be down to the two ladies tomorrow night....

American Idol-Down to the Final Four

As I predicted last week, the three girls and Blake are left. It should be fun...Now Melinda should win and probably Lakisha second but Jordin is my dark horse surprise..Blake should go after tonight, but he will treat us to one last original performance.

Show opens up with the final four on stage..Tonight we are treated to the sytlings of Barry Gibb..As the intro tells us he is the greats.

Melinda is First..Love you inside and out...She always picks hard songs..I like that about Melinda...Little behind at the start...Slow at first but when she hits the first stanza you can see that she could record this song...She has a nice way of using the back up singers to compliment her and he rolls were good...Have to say about a 9...Randy said..He was not jumping up and down..Paula said something really confusing but consistent..Simon said what Paula was trying to say was it was not incredible...I feel the judges were wrong in what they said

Blake..You should be dancing
...Blake bullshitting at first about the legends...Flat from the start with the echo... vocals are bad...This is just strange..His voice is weak compared to the others..but he is an original freak...Strange is sounds like a child singing the vocals... 7....Randy said the beat boxing did not work tonight...Said it was corning like being at a strange disco in another country..Paula said the pitch was off..Not good..You are unique..Simon said unique but it was terrible..

Lakisha..Staying Alive...Hard song to sing..Making it a blues song...Not sure about this..She is not out of pitch but it has not boost to it...They said it was a slower version but I do not see that... 8..Not great... Randy said it was strange..said it did not work...Paula said something but Simon said they are heading for the exit..Simon said no kiss tonight baby...Back to the shouting..Performance was scary..Not great so far tonight..

Jordin Sparxx next singingToo Love Somebody...This is gonna be a good song for her..She will do this one well..Slow start and her pitch is good..Almost sounds country...Nice octave run..This is the best song of the night so far...10...Did not oversell the song and kept it simple..Randy said..the best so far and controlled..Paula said it is the best vocal so far.Simon said great choice, great singing you are back in the competition.

Melinda..Next singing How can you mend a broken heart.....She is singing it well, but the song is not her...middle is picking up..She is on tune and in the middle is really picking it up a notch...I actually like it by the end...10....It built...Randy said second song much better...You are a pro...Paula said no doubt..and something else..Simon...second half has put you into the semi finals.....

Blake..This is where I came in...Again an obscure song. This may be the death of Blake....In his sweater...No one knows what this song is and it has drained the audience of energy...It is not bad just a bad choice...This is gonna get a 7..No one will remember it...Randy said it is better than the last but just not feeling it..Paula said you are the contemporary rebel...Simon said I do not know what that song is and it is tuneless...Does not understand the song of choice.

Lakisha ...Run to Me..Nice song...Starting out acoustic...it changes the song and I am not sure if I like it...She sang it on key and at the end took it up a notch, so it was not bad...9..Randy said Much better that the first..said good luch..Paula said nothing...Simon said that her and Blake might leave tonight.

Into commercial at 852, Jordan could take the night tonight.. It all depends on the song choice and execution....

Jordin..Woman in Love..Good choice is she can pull it out...First note pitchy, but she is taking it slow again..She is singing it as good as Barbara S. She feels all the soul in the song...She gets a 10..Jordin wins the night... By song choice and singing.. Randy said it was pitchy..Don't see that...Paula said it was not something...Simon said it was old fashioned and pageantry...I do not agree with them..

Winners tonight were Jordin and Melinda...Going home is going to be Lakisha. Blake should but too many people like him..Like I said from the start..It should be the three ladies at the end..Lets see what happens tomorrow

American Idol Jon Bon Jovi Night

Ryan taking the stage tonight with his George Michael scruff and thanking all the people for raising 70 million last week..Then right into the Bon Jovi tribute...That high hair spandex wearing Jersey boy...Which idol is going to sing a Jovi song...Jon is giving his take on what he thinks they should do...


First up......Phil Stacey..Blaze of Glory...Jon saying he sang it better than him in so many words...God I hate when they start out in the audience..Where is the crying girl when you need her..Too much running around but he sang it pretty good...Have to say this is one of his best performances...cut out the cheese dick walking and strutting around...give him a 8....Randy name dropped again but then said it was his best...Paula said this is a year out of your life...Simon said it was not authentic...and he is not a rock star...After the critique, Ryan said they are all on a different page...Bickering ensued.

Next up is Jordin Sparxx...Singing Living on a prayer....This is gonna be a hard song to sing...Looking all haughty with her teased hair...She is doing a bad rock impression at first..She should have done a slow version..Like Cornell did with Billie Jean..She is not standing out in her songs like she normally does..She looks hot. I am gonna give her a 8 because she brought it home at the end..I am confused... I think it was good...Randy said not your best, Paula said nothing as usual, Simon said the look was bad, and the singing was out of control..She did agree with them..She should be safe

Lakeisha...Never heard of this song....Her lower register sounds weak compared to her higher one...She is really singing it well...I have to say that since I do not know it she could actually record this song and make a hit with it....She did good this week 10....Standing Ovation..Randy said you are back, little rough at the start and blew it out the box...Paula said nothing...Simon said he could kiss her after that and they brought her down for a kiss, and said he did not know the song but she nailed it..

Blake You Give Love a Bad Name...He started out doing impressions, but this is what I was talking about with Jordin..This guy has to be the most original ever to hit the AI stage...wow, I like it..I give him a 10 for creativity and doing something fun. Randy said you are the most original version on AI..Please read above... Paula said something...Simon said half will hate and half will love it

Chris Richardson...Singing Cowboy...He does sing from his nose..Has not learned to let it come from his belly..Does not sound too bad right now..Walk these street verse went pitchy and shouty...Looks like he is taking a dump...Not bad though give him an 8.....Randy said you did your thing...Paula said you did your thing..Simon said you did do as much as you could with this song, but he is not sure if he will be here next week...

Melinda Doolittle..Have a nice day
Final four
Jordin, Melinda, Lakiesha, Blake

George Bush to thank america for chipping in to save other people so he could continue to bomb and kill children everywhere..How sweet is that.

Easy song...Not a bad job...Give him an 8..Randy said it was alright, just ok...Paula said I was thinking that at the start but changed her mine and said it was a great performance...Simon said it did not go anywhere, but it was sincere so it was good..

Lakiesha I believe...This girl can sing, but not as good as Fantasia...Anyway I have to give it a 9..Randy said pitchy, but he liked it..Paula said she is a power house...Simon thanked Paula for being so brief...Simon said he is having an issue with the shouting again...Simon not impressed...

Phil Stacey...Garth Brooke..I am not familar with this song either...This is the first season where a lot of songs are not known..Singing it pretty good...Give him a 8..Not a bad job, just boring...Randy and Paula said it was good..Simon said you need to connect to the country in your voice

Jordin Sparxx...You will never walk alone...The mic is not on at first..She looks good and hits a soft octave run...but she is ready to let loose, and is singing an old song..She did such a fantastic job...10..Littly pitchy and screamy but fantastic...Randy said it was the best ever on AI..Not true..Paula said nothing..Simon said it was fantastic and said the song is 60 years old and she could have a hit with that.

Once again..the final three should be the ladies....Going home tonight Phil or Blake

British Invasion on American Idol

Haley up first...Singing something about love....Kind of blah not bad and it sounds ok but not too strong...not too challenging..give it a 7...Randy said it was the best performance and the yo factor...Paula said it was the perfect song...Simon said you naughty little thing..said it was fun young shriek in the middle...

Chris Richardson next Don't let the sun catch u crying...If he does not fuck it up it might get him into the final four....on pitch but his voice is soft and getting lost...I will give him an 9..nice job and he is not going home.. Randy said it was great, Paula said great and Simon said it was the best performance..

Stephanie..singing You don't have to say...starting off a little slow but sounding on pitch a little too much vibrato....sounds a little behind the band...at the end she is bringing it out which sounds much better..She should finish in 3rd place....9...Randy said it was not her best performance...Paula said really nothing at all...her spirit left her...Simon asked her how she thought she did and he said well...too night club...he misses the passion from her...

Blake...Time of the season...Once again he is the most original...beat boxing the start....not a super strong voice but in the middle getting lost in the back up but it is a good choice for him and allows him to be so free and wild like he is..you have to say this is a good performance..Just not a strong voice...9....Randy said cool vibe factor of a song...made it hot..Paula said he is raising the bar..whatever man..Simon..Million times better than last week...kept the melody in tact without killing the song strongest so far....

Take this time to give out a shout to my only reader of this blog Mike..You are as gay as me...

Lakisha...Diamonds are forever...a slow song...wearing a million worth of diamonds...perfect pitch and such a strong voice and not getting lost in the in the band..pitch in the middle...but the song is so strong and her voice and control perfect...wow at the end she belted it out this is a 10...You cant sing better than that...Randy said did not feel enough of her...he is wrong...Paula said it was right and said you are smart...Simon said you are a fantastic but it is you in 50 yrs time and not his favorite......Ryan said what don't you like about this dress and Simon said your subject...Take the risk take the runs...

Phil Stacey....Tobacco road....He is yelling the song and know one knows the song that much...a little off but not bad but just blah...7..Randy said you let it out...Pitchy..Paula said nothing..Simon said he was not crazy...third division bar band performance...no grit

Jordan Sparx.....She looks really good. I have nothing...yes i would date Jordan...She is very marketable...She starts off on pitch..perfect inflection....wow she is singing her heart out..song gives you goosebumps 10..very strong..Randy said it was your best performance..Paula said the same..Simon you sang it great but i feel like killing myself...

Gina...Paint it Black..Good song choice for what she is going for but it is ok...She has a genre but I do not think that it is what AI is about..Not about bands....Not doing bad for her though which is a 7.5...Randy said it was ok..Paula said nothing...Simon said nothing...there was moments of torture and so off that it was bad....

Chris up next...Shes not there...Chris in the crowd....I think it is a good song for her...sorry for him...not doing a bad job but i hate the crowd thing...taking it up at the end....now he is running around like a rock star which he is not..not sure an 7....Randy said he was ahead of the beat but ended good..but rough..Paula said your dressing nicer...Simon said what else what he could have done to be more free....Simon said you did your thing I thought it was fun and better than last week

Melinda closing it out....As long as he needs me...If you have not seen Oliver then you don't know the song...a little too slow but she sings it well...as most play songs go this is good and the same girl is crying so that chic is fucked up...but she is closing the song out well...10..I think the crew wont like it..Randy said tonight we saved the best vocal for last....Paula said something...Simon said are you as nice as you sing...and said you took a boring song and made it hot...

The Sanjaya dude should go home but it will be Phil or Gina...

Simon said his voice sounded very small and said it was a bad vocal.

Nick Pedro...Singing Richard Marx..Started off flat ...Seemed to calm down in the middle...flat on the second verse..A very safe song , hit the high part ok...It was a 6.5....Randy said are you nervous..It was pitchy, Paula said it fell flat..Simon said it was not that bad and said you will be back next week.....

Blake Lewis....Singing Keane Song..Nice choice...Started off off, but sounding better now...hit a spot in the middle that he either burped or sucked it in..Higher part towards the end threw him off..Just not a super strong.... 7.5..... Randy, Puala, and Simon all like the performance...

Chris..Singing Not sure what song it is..but so far he sounds the best of the night...Energy wise.. Gave him an 8.5....Randy like it...Paula said she liked it,Simon said your humor has you here..said it was a student gig..Not too happy with it.

Jarod Cotter....Singing R Kelly...or Brian McKnight....Sounds good....little pitchy at some points but over all pretty good 8.5....As good as Chris..Randy said it was ok.. Paula said it was ok..Simon said it was not that good...

AJ Tabalado.....Singing ??? Not bad..Energetic..Did a nice job....8.5...Randy said did not bring anything new...Paula said you can sing..Simon said it was good but theme park...Better than he first thought

49th Grammy Awards

Now let me start off this entry by saying I am not gay. I do love the Grammys along with a couple of other award shows. We are one hour to curtain and I am watching E with Ryan and he is doing a pretty good job.

Dixie chix with Ryan and they won a grammy already. Ryan asked them if there has been many regrets about statements and they said no. Like those girls for their committment. They will not say they are sorry for dissing the fucker Bush..The man that has broken everything he has touched including this country..

Paul Wall interview was fantastic. Back with Ryan and the RHC Peppers. Flee dressed as a brit and not being funny with his comments. Freak. They started shooting silly strig. Now they are hopping up and down.. Ryan with a funny joke about strumming his six string as they were cleaning his crotch..

Back at 948... Reba to present to honor Bob Wills and Don Hennley...Carrie Underwood....not a great song but she did it well..Rascal Flats doing hotel CA..Good but not great. Now Carry is singing Desparado...Not bad...This is going on way too long..It is 12 minutes now and going on

Nat Cole and a Jazz dude..Best new artist..Blunt, Brown, Carrie, Corrine..Carrie Underwood won...Second person to thank god..god likes country

Next to Carrie Underwood.. Grammy winner Carrie Underwood. Country Vocal.. Carrie looking good. She denied dating Tony Romo. ..

Now to Shakira.. She looks great. Hair frizzed out and highlighted..Once again I am not gay. It has been a good year for her. She is wearing read.

Scarlett J saying she does not read the papers that say she is dating Justin. Now she is an actor..Why is she there?? Perhaps to hang with Justin... Pink up next..With her husband and she announced she lost her category. Pink is not pink anymore she is blonde?? Hillary Duff is up with brown hair.. I hate her fake teeth. She has the stump message for her..She is wearing Dolce and it was a boring interview. Jenn Hudson. Jenn Hudson looks great. Dressed in red and looking a little to divaish.. They are going to Ryan next..She does look good. Mandy Moore up and looking like an old frump. They cut to Christinna A coming up the carpet and she is dressed in her 40 garb which sucks so much. I have no idea what the image is supposed to be but who wants to see a freak from the 00 dressed like the 40..
Paul Abdul up with Ryan.. She is acting normal. Unlike her. Boring interview and we are now 20 mins to the start of the show.

Back from commercial at 744 with Ryan..John Legen with bow tie open has won two awards already. Cedric looking a Fergie.. Ciara stopped by and she looked good. Terrence Howard with Ryan and he is funny with toe cheese comments. Not many questions flying too many quick cuts away..Cannot concentrate.

Fergie looks like a crack ho. BEP already won one award. Going to break again. Ryan has translated what John Mayer said in Jap when he asked if he was dating Jessica Simpson. The translation when they get back from break

Back from break, the translation, there is no translation..What is up with that. we are ready to start....

8pm coverage from CBS, which I get in HDTV.. Police opening up with Roxanne. Even with throat surgery Sting still sounds pretty good. Taking a lower registger on the Roxy part showing he cant do it anymore. They should have done this acoustic and now they are bringing in sound augmentation. Copeland sounds good on the drums. Kind of lackluster..More hype than content. Got standing O but not deserved.. Remember this is their retirement tour to make money for their kids.

Jamie Fox up first. First Cat.. I missed it cause I was on the phone..Best Pop Collab..Tony B and Stevie beat out Shakira and Wy..Come on the fix is in..... Ouch we are off to a bad start. Wow some batter collabs got screwed that should have won. The mic hit Tony in the face.

Joan Baez up next to introduce Dixie Chix. I have so much respect for these girlz. This song is about not saying sorry to everyone who dumped them when they made comments about G W.. I love people that do not say sorry for their thoughts.

8:18 PM Back from break...Prince introducing Beyonce..One word.. Many people think she is not good but I think she is..Glitter on her skin..How hot..

BEPs up next...Fergie showing how she cannot read. .. Best R& B..Mary J, Jamie Fox , India Arie, Prince..Lionelle..should go to Mary J..Winner is...Mary J won...well deserved. Mary almost in tears and first person to thank god tonight....One of many..who is god and why does he love the record industry so much...She talking about being better human beings...Thanking people who bring her up when the other brought her down...good until she had three hundred..Take her off, God is bored

Up next.. the Queen L... doing the JT song double....should be the first girl...but we are trying to make money for the text message companies

Back from break with Justin talking about a song at 833pm. Taling about the best song he ever wrote..Cut live to the stage. Justin on piano...This guy is a huge talent..Sings live, writes...Where are Fred Durst and EM who took shots at him.. Honest talent is there always. He is doing a freaky thing with the camera that is strange...

Up next and Pink and TI to present an awards to the Doors. I know a little lady who likes that. Best Female R&B...Beyonce, Mary J, Mariah, Natalie, India Arie..Should go to Mary J...winner is Mary J..That song was too good.. I am two for two tonight... Again second thanks to Jesus... Mary and Joseph must be next. Talking about valleys this time and did not get the full thought out.

Back from commercial at 846... Stevie Wonder introducing John Legend, Corrine Baily Rae, and John Mayer...This is going to be good..Corrine singing STAR.. What a talent doing it acoustic..John Mayer joins in doing a slow hand blues fusion addition to the song.. In pops John Legend.. Soft and stoic.. Into the next song which is John Legend.. Mayer playing the basic chord structure on electric...this is the way music is supposed to be..the way that life is supposed to be.. talents from many creating one voice, one vision, one love.....the other two begin singing backup to John..They are prob going to do gravity next... which they are now...wow..This has to be the three best performances tonight...Corinne singing backup... He is the new slow hand..Everyone joining in right now. This is best performance..

Best Pop..Christina, james Blunt..Elvis Costello, John Mayer, Justin ...Got to be Justin..Winner is John Mayer...I am not bad at that..

Back at 918 with How I met your mother peeps...Gnarls Barcley performing..Dressed as an airline pilot.. Have to hand it to the Grammys..Everyone performing live and they sound good... He is doing like a military march... The tarps come down and there are about 50 backup singers in the clounds ...Looks like Ide Amim... This is crazy..We are all crazy... Full Orchestra behind him..Nice job not the best though.

Best Rap Album..Kanye and Common.. Funny exchange..Luda, Lupe, Pharrell, The roots, TI..Not sure..Luda prob...Luda won..Shake your money maker... Thanking the crew..Many of the guys wearing diamond earings. Lame thanks though

Back at 933...Terrence Howard to present....Mary J..Wow, she is such a honest person...too for to long...such a great song...this songs sings of the pains of love... medely into another song..stay with me baby..very passionate performance..walking like a rapper in her gown....Not bad..Not the best we know the best at this point.

Have Not Posted In A While

I have not posted in a bit and I do not know why. Busy, not busy, bored and not bored. There is no excuse. A friend had her dog die at only 9 years old. Another friend went to India, Cambodia, and a few other countries and came back and is still bored with her life. I warned her against going to India. She is a funny little creature. Says she only feels alive when in another country. Yet when in India she was groped by a young boy in front of the Taj Mahal. She said she bought me some incense but she threw it out because it smelled. Did not have the heart to tell her that it is supposed to smell but my bet is that she gave it to the boy that groped her. She travels on every holiday. I think she liked the boy who groped her.

Other than that what else is new. I ripped the mirrors off my car in my parking spot, in the same week that I had to replace the breaks and tires. My dog celebrated her 1st year with me. Getting better but not great. American Idol started again and that is about it.
