Tom & I were in the car yesterday when we heard this for the first time. It’s a song that Eddie Vedder (the lead singer of Pearl Jam) wrote about the Cubs at Ernie Banks’ request. Someone put together a little slideshow of photos and posted it up to YouTube. Check it out, even if [...]

Yay David Cook!!!!
I’m so happy that my boy David Cook won American Idol! He was my favorite throughout the entire thing, and it was great to see him get the win. He was so emotional too, which was nice to see, and a total class act all the way though. Let’s face it - both Davids will [...]
American Idol: Top 8 guys
Ok, I’m not doing the full recap this time, I just wanted to give my thoughts. First, David Cook is still my favorite, he has been since the top 24 started. I just love his voice, and I think he’s a great performer. Way to rock out the Lionel.
Jason Castro covered what is also one [...]
Some wedding photos
I took these photos at a wedding on Friday night. I wasn’t there for the whole ceremony unfortunately, so I missed some good ones of the vows & such, but I was pretty happy with some of them. A couple of my favorites are below. The rest can be found on an album in my [...]
Dancing pumpkins
1a) Joey stayed on Dancing with the Stars! Yay! Bye, Ian. It was your time to go.
1b) Great Idol this week. I voted for Melinda as many times as I could until I got bored. I think it was about 40. She was fantastic. Blake’s last song was great, the rest was just eh. Jordin [...]
I’m Tivo blogging Idol (an hour behind)
Phil: Holy crap, was he awesome!!! I got chills listening to him sing “Blaze of Glory.” His voice was just amazing. The thing that scares me is that Simon told him that he’s going home this week, and he’s usually right. Vote for Phil, peeps!
Jordin: I love her hair. She’s doing a good job of injecting herself [...]
I’m so pissed at American Idol
They can’t just not kick someone off! What’s up with that? I bet Blake was going to go home and they didn’t want him to. They keep kissing his butt, even when he doesn’t do well (like last night - his Imagine was weak and boring, I don’t care how ’sincere’ they thought he was). [...]
Idol - top 7
Who did I love last night? Phil and Melinda. Both were superb. Who was good? Jordin. Who was just ok? The rest of them - Sanjaya, Chris R., Lakisha, Blake. The judges continue to fawn all over Blake, even when he has just a mediocre week, which they’ve been doing for the last 3 or [...]
Idol prediction & other stuff
Bye, Haley - one can only hope that you’ll finally go home this week. Wouldn’t it be poetic justice if Sanjaya goes home, after the first week that the judges didn’t think he was completely awful?
I’m sleepy. My sleep patterns over the last week or so have been totally messed up. This morning, I woke [...]
Another distressing Idol shocker
Don’t read this if you haven’t yet seen the result show from this week.
Â
I am shocked and distressed about the person who went home. I thought for sure when she was named to the bottom three that Phil and Haley would be the bottom two, but then I had the horrible realization once they told [...]
