It's actually a good idea, you know they'll be tough critics.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Because books.
I distinctly remember the Brians (MALARKY!) sitting in on the final dinner.
Oh! Now I do, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I almost didn't recognize Malarky when he introduced himself as "Brian" in one of those terrible ads.

Thrive to spite them
I'm glad Allison got through. My picks were Allison, Jessi, and Adam.
Or, after talking to some poeple at work, I thought the chick that sang Corrine Bailey would be in. Instead it was...odd in some ways.
Next week will be interesting, I had forgotten some of the people, plus it's the chick who replaced the one they kicked off. And the wild card is next week. Could be very interesting.

I was really surprised to see Chris make it through, I didn't think he was that memorable. But then, other than Adam, I wasn't really impressed by anyone last night. I like the skinny Matt, but his song last night was kinda lame. He did great in Hollywood week, though, so maybe he'll do it up right next week.

Adam is killing me. he's SO. PRETTY. and i should be loving him, but his voice is like nails on a chalkboard for me when he gets in his upper register.
really, really shocked by Kris. i thought for sure Nick/Norman was going to be the wildcard in that scenario.

Nah. Norman is fun, but he just isn't something that plays on AI. I seriously hope he gets some club gigs out of his TV exposure, though.

you're talking about the same show that kept Sanjaya around week after week, right?
I hope he does too because i thought he was absolutely hilarious.

Hee. Yeah, but I think they learned their lesson after that season.
