Why can't people say what they mean? If s/he hates fags, why doesn't s/he just say so, instead of a stupid screen name no one can understand.

AMEN! I still wondered- "How can ANYONE get all worked up about stick bundles?"

He hates fags and he's hanging out on a theater website? No wonder he's so frustrated.

(Sorry..still off topic)

Perhaps she is a vegan, and hates steak bundles.

(I'll let it go now)

I like the meatballs.

Yeah, I'd always see pork faggots on sale in supermarkets when I was studying in London.

I was trying to come up with an alternative meaning-trying to think better of this person , but perhaps you are all correct.

Back to American Idol.....Who do you think is going home this week? Anybody but David Cook would be fine by me!

This is Broadway week, right?

[Liverpool]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 1:16pm

Nope, its Mariah Carey week. Next week is ALW.

[mateo]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 1:18pm

I love it.

For the fact that the judges always say NOT to pick Mariah (Whitney, Celine etc.) songs.

Posted: 4/13/08 at 1:36pm

ohhhh please let david A go this week

[nitsua]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 1:53pm

I'm worried for David Cook.

[mateo]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 2:05pm

My picks

Syesha - Vision Of Love, Looking In, Butterfly, Without You

Carly - Forever, Looking In, Without You

Archie - Hero, When You Believe, Whenever You Call

Brooke - Looking In, Without You

Jason - My All, After Tonight

Kristy - I Am Free, Butterfly, Without You ( I would normally pick an up-tempo for her, but she is now in a virginal niche.. and I don't see her sining songs like "Fantasy")

David - I think he might be hurtin this week.


This group does not, nor can not sing up-tempo dance songs. Which sucks cause there are so many good up-tempo Mariah tunes.

Mateo, I agree it is funny how the judges say never attempt songs by mariah yet this week they won't have a choice. I think most of them will struggle. I am very worried about David Cook; this will be a big challenge for him. If he ends up leaving, there will be nothing left to watch on the show.

[Liverpool]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 11:34pm

David Cook is about the only one i'm not worried about this week. Changing the genre of on eof Mariah Carey's songs will be a piece of cake. besides, he doesn t hav eto make it too hard sounding, he can rock ballad it out and be fine.

[mateo]

Posted: 4/13/08 at 11:38pm

Last week was his weakest performance. Hopefully he can come back strong.

Bring on Mariah night!!!

Posted: 4/15/08 at 10:40am

I'm very eager to hear Mariah's advice to the contestants: "If you want to be a big pop star, first, you have to marry the head of a record label. Then, you sleep with the top producers & songwriters..."

Gee, Joe, give her SOME credit. She (or someone) paid a LOT for those boobs.

(Seriously, there have been far less talented people who have become famous doing the same thing. She does have a pretty amazing voice when she can control it.)

That dictionary left out "fagoti" - the Italian term for "oboe" - used in musical notation.

Posted: 4/15/08 at 10:58am

I know Sueleen, I am just NOT one of her FANS!

[SonofMammaMiaSam]

Posted: 4/15/08 at 10:59am

Yeah, just look at Pia Zadora.

[doodlenyc]

Posted: 4/15/08 at 11:02am

Um...'scuse me, but Pia has talent AND style!
