Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

well I know, and I recognized him, but his dad is a big deal.

Absolutely, but more in certain circles, obviously.

I am reminded of my mother saying, "Nancy Carlsson-Paige is Matt Damon's mother?? She's famous!" Sure, in her field.

I have never heard of Mike White's father, but I know Mike from School of Rock, Freaks and Geeks, and I also know that he was a staff writer on Dawson's Creek!

Wow, way to blow it out of the water with the first singer! Randy is full of shit, she's got a great voice for the type of song she chose. No, she's not an opera star or a pretty voice, but she can still sing.

Heh, I've already forgot her name! Too many of them right now, 36 fer cryin' out loud. Dark hair, I want to say Felicia? I'm not sure.

Well, I've liked Jackie and Alexis so far and that's it. I think most of the others have played it too safe. And Stevie and Casey have just plain sucked.

Stevie was really bad. I don't know if it was 17 year old nerves or something.

And the Rock with me was bad. There's a lot of really really bad tonight.
