So true whatcha said – from start to finish! Love Crystal and think she has her own style but this is 2010 and Janis has been dead for 30+ years (oh my gosh!  I just looked it up and she’s been gone 40 years this year!) now – and while Crystal channels Joplin and could almost be her clone, Crystal does need to update her image.  Just a little bit…would work great.

I am still thinking that the Big Mike being at the bottom was a ratings ploy by the show – I’ve been reading too many articles (via web) that AI has fallen in ratings big time…I would not put it past the show to do something like that to up their ratings. 

on my list to go; so no big surprise there – I thought Tim should go a long time ago, however, I’m not a 14 teen year old with my own cellphone that daddy is paying for, so Mr. Tim Dimples will stay I think, next to go may be the 16 year old  – Arron, he always looks pretty nervous.  Then Lee (although, I like his Kenny Wayne Sheppard sound blues sound).  Casey is good (and cute too), but don’t see him as talented as my favorite, (Crystal). 

PS – check out this blog of AI – I think this guy is pretty right on in his comments about the show this year:

a farm is almost 24/7!  Well, at least you will get some fresh air out in the country!  Kudo’s to you farmers – backbone of our country.

mouthwash commerical – with all the girls…bet we’d all be surprised (or not) on who’s gay in Hollywood…

what to have and to hold, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, forsaking all others, ’til death do you part means anymore because they haven’t written ANY couple like that since the old "Days"  – I’m not talking about Tom and Alice, Julie and Doug or Marlena and John…heck fire – the last couple to sail into the sunset forever (literally) was Sean and Belle.  I watch the show for the happily-ever-after, the show is my grown up fairy-tale…It’s very sad that they can’t give us one couple anymore that means it when they say "I’ll love you forever"…now they just change who they are saying that to three months (or less) later…

Stephanie is beautiful but "hello" no one is home, she’s either clueless or conniving…there’s no in between or happiness in her.  I usually FF’d through her scenes…I didn’t like Mel when she first come on board, and there’s been a few times with her whining little girl stuff, but at least she has more range and likeablity.  Stephanie is one-dimensional.

The show’s just on now in my neck of the woods, two go tomorrow – wonder who’s going?  Do you think it was a publicty ploy last week with Big Mike being the lowest score?  I just find that hard to believe.  Love to have after the winner is announced to find out details about the scoring with a independent panel.  I wouldn’t put it past Hollywood to do something like that for ratings.

You will love being retired!  I retired a year ago in May and don’t know where the time went I’ve been so busy!  I often wonder how I spent 10 hours a day at work and then did the regular home stuff too…Have a wonderful retirement!
