Simon was on Zoloft last night. PS: Eric, I prefer "Yo, dog..." to "dude". Thanks in advance. ]]>

Last night, Tues, 3/1/05, the wimmin' performed. What can I say? They were all pretty bad. 10 hotel lounge lizards tryin' to shake their booties into AI immortality. zzzzzzz. I still think the country gal stands out just a tiny bit from the rest, but to sing a Janis Joplin song is a big mistake -- especially coming on the heels of Melissa Ethridge's recent performance. Overall, 10 performances. 10 losers. ]]>

Natalie: "All the melanin-related stuff you're spouting hurts and disappoints." Natalie, please don't be hurt or disappointed. I don't discriminate: I loathe everybody. ]]>

more pornographic than Janet Jackson' breast Thank you for giving me the words for my disturbance whenever this commercial shows, Shark! I much prefer the Subway toasted sandwiches -- besides, their commercial is humorous. (Vindictive child melts snowman.) ]]>

Wow, Shark... All the melanin-related stuff you're spouting hurts and disappoints. I tend not to watch AI beyond occasionally, but being remanded to bed (recuperating from pneumonia; color me a captive audience) makes me a slave to TV for a while, and AI beats Fear Factor. That said... You're right about Simon; most times he is dead on, even at his prickliest. Paula, a never was? Despite her lack of singing ability (and yes, she has stated that she wants to go back to recording [NOOOOOOOOO!]), she sold a shitload of LPs and won a Grammy. Doesn't mean she is talented, but she was majorly popular (sad to say). Not that that makes her in any way credible... Randy, I think, looks pretty good this year. Gastric bypass did him a mitzvah. He does sound ridiculous with all the "dude" and "dog" stuff. The bomb? More like a dud. I saw photos of a big-haired Jackson with the guys from Journey -- in no way is this man cool. And I can't grant him any credibility because of his incessant name-dropping: Whitney? Mariah? Who the hell cares? "You da BOMB, dog!" Please. As for the contestants: BO! BO! BO! Go Bo! And the oversinging seems to have diminished, but I suspect we will see more of it. ]]>

Mario Vazquez - not bad. Anwar Robinson - pretty bad; guy can't get over his nerves. He's GONE or should be. Joseph Murena - "Portugese nightclub in 1974" = spot on. He will stick around only if the drooling female adolescent demographics crank up their speed-dials. David Brown - weak. He's GONE or should be. Constantine Maroulis - "Hard to Handle" - Oy. More like "Hard to Take". As Simon pointed out, he did what 5 billion other Friday night bar rockers could do, including yours truly after a couple of Tequila shots. Better! He's GONE or should have been weeks ago. Scott Savol - still coasting on the Al Barger Memorial Contingency. He's a sultry black soul singer trapped in the body of an overweight Appalachian Redneck --- which Shark thinks is possibly THE EPITOME of Contemporary American Talent. Oy. Travis Tucker - weak voice coupled with the talents of a Chippendales Dancer. Gone. Nikko Smith -- just what we need: another Bobby Brown. zzzzzzzzzzz. Probably a favorite of most american window-lickers, despite my loathing. Anthony Fedorov - should be big with the Russian immigrant/albino Fargo residents contingency. zzzzzzzz. Gone. Bo (the "rocker") - the most interesting, exciting thing all night. Like hearing a pipe bomb in a somnambulist ward. ========== Asides: Paula is still retarded. Randy is still an idiot, and the biggest unhip, fake prick on the show. QUIZMOS Sandwiches - I have a personal Culture Jam thing: if a commercial is overly obnoxious, cute, or insulting, I vow to NEVER EVER EVER fucking use the product again. Quizmos, with the digital moving mouth on the fat little baby -- scores a perfect 10 in all obnoxious, insulting categories. I don't know why -- but this is more pornographic than Janet Jackson' breast. Thanks in advance for joining my Quizmos Boycott, Shark ]]>

I don't know about "innocent": he was a total prick in the group performance round - if he is changed it might before the better. ]]>

Hey, if the truth really sets you free then Simon will be set free... someday maybe. Right now I think he is still paying for past sins, a shit load of them. And Paula has always just gone along with anything Randy says. I think she wants a recording contract. I love it when all the black dudes act like they are singing to Paula only, she gets all perky... sick man . I'm rooting for the Appalachian guy Scott. What a voice! They are already changing him though. Wow, another innocent person corrupted by $$$ or the search for it. ]]>

For a much less vitriolic approach -- and a WAY too detailed summary, please visit this entry. A tip of the hat -- and explicit advice to "get a life" goes to the highly obsessive Mr. Scott Pepper. xxoo S ]]>

At least a 1-to-1 truth-to-insane-hyperbole ratio, so thumbs up from this judge. You think Randy is fat now?? You should have seen him two seasons ago - beyond that, your characterization is more true than you know: he played bass in fucking JOURNEY, for God's sake, although he has also produced a lot of R&B. If you watch the show a while you will respect Simon but also know he is a flatulent arbitrary prick. And what seems promising about this season is there isn't nearly as much of the grotesque over-singing you mention as in the past. You getting soft, Shark, better watch out ]]>
