I had made up my mind that I wasn't going to watch it this year.

Then I saw the TV ad for it while watching the NFL playoffs.

What was it Michael Corleone said?

About 35 hours!

I'm so excited I'm gonna go to sleep now and wake up tomorrow like I did the day before Christmas and during my daughter's piano recital. I couldn't wait for both those days to be over.

What frightened me, though, was I thought the boos and cussing in my dream were towards my favorite football team. Thank goodness I woke up to see they were from the crowd towards my daughter's horrific piano playing. Talk about relief. I swear she missed the entire keyboard and foot pedal one time. Well, she did fall off the chair, so I won't hold that one against her.

She was crying on the drive home. I said, "You should'a practiced, baby-girl."

She said, "You should'a got me a piano."

I pulled over and had a bunch of girl scouts jump her right there. Don't be talking mess about my finances, little girl. Them girl scouts can't fight but one black eye on the face is better than wishing for two. At least, that's what I always say.

Goodnight, everybody.

I can't sleep. I'm tossing and turning over here. It really bothers me that my daughter would talk mess about my finances even after I've done wonderful parenting my entire life for her. I would almost die for her. I'd for sure give a limb. Okay, maybe not a limb but a sleeve or a pant leg or a shoe . . . for sure, no doubt whatsoever, none.

But she really has no room to talk when it comes to finances. Half the time she don't even have lunch money. What does that tell you about her?

You better check yourself, little girl.

Goodnight for sure, everybody.

Have a very good week.

I'm interested to see if, without having to cut around Paula's prescription drug-fuelled insanity, the audition episodes aren't as heavily edited.

LOL at Corona. The ol' wake up and its Christmas ploy.

Are you sure they weren't cut specifically to include her insanity, rather than around?

In any event, it will be interesting to see what it's like without her. Don't have high hopes for Ellen, though. I think she may wear thin rather quickly.

Simon Cowell has confirmed that this is his last season...

Re: American Idol . . .

Anybody know if this season is going to be on Hulu or anything? I don't have TV at the moment. I'm getting used to watching everything a day or week late, which will be fine until the voting rounds. Then I'll need another solution.

Re: American Idol . . .

Sorry, I don't know, Jenny.

4 hours!

Oh, man, I'm excited.

I love AI.

People stop watching American Idol, it's killing the music industry and has to end.

Since when does singing karaoke get you a record deal over half a dozen more talented bands?

STOP watching the show if you ever want music to be good again.

If America isn't interested in the winner...it won't buy the albums...but if Carrie Underwood is selling like crazy then America loves her...If those dozens of bands you refer are better...then they'll make it too.
