Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Because books.

I think they only went with Meghan because they wanted someone kind country, which we don't really have.

Didn't Kristin Beard, the little blonde country girl, make it through? I'm already lost. And I don't think Megan is country at all. She's ... sort of bluesy, sort of ... indie rock, I think. She's got a unique voice, but it's really not as strong as it could be.

You may be right, Amy. I've already lost track of who all has been chosen, so far. Yeah, I think you've got it figured. Meghan reminds me of the blonde that always played the piano last season (sooo bad about names), she wasn't really country, kind of folksy.

Thrive to spite them

Kristin Beard didn't make it through, she was eliminated last night and not picked for the wild card round.

Ah. Thanks!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, I was kinda idly watching but my Tivo flipped over to catch ABDC, at which point I watched my Tivo'd Lie to Me, so I am all kinds of confused about what happened.

There's a final 13 now? It really is like Cylon math, huh?

MMaSM: Dunno. Agree that the ballet dancer is nice to look at, but there's not a lot of there there for most of the finalists, I feel.

However, I am excited to see Tyson again, and I like that they're doing pure mentors. This show clearly needs that role, and I think television is better when a mentor is available.

Holy Fuck! Did that come out of left field or what??

I called it early in the show. Once they started whittling them down, and picked two girls, I even called that it would be those two and they would both make it. I am rarely right in AI world.

Unfortunately, after it was over, we realized that TiVo had picked AI over Survivor. Can someone tell me if it is worth seeking out online?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Nothing really surprising last night, Megan. Worth seeking out only if you're a die-hard completist - next week's Previouslies will cover everything you need to know.

It's like you don't even know me anymore. I guess this is why long-distance relationships rarely work.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Oh, I think it's worth watching. Some excellent Tyson comments, A pretty good immunity competition and some sweet strategizing.

Does anyone else get a Jonny Fairplay vibe off of Tyson? Though he's all stealthy obnoxious.
