Command A highlights everything...I learned that neat trick from the Mac guys on the support line. I used to call them every day in the beginning. They are so nice and helpful...and in the US, not India. :)

[Miss Didi]

And hello to you, Sir Jon!

I should have had them covert my files over. Also, the stupid easy games that come free aren’t available now.

[Miss Didi]

You mean like solitaire? I just found one on line and put it in my favorites. Garage Band and iMovie are pretty groovy...one day I will learn how to use them. :)

[peggybac]

It won’t accept my Zuma game I purchased years ago but still play. Oh well.....

[silent_jonny]

Morning, Lil & Big :)

[silent_jonny]

LOL!!

[silent_jonny]

I must be really out of it as far as music goes.I thought that was terrible.

I didn't understand anything about Minoj. I don't understand how she's even a celebrity.

[silent_jonny]

A guest judge? On lip synch night maybe!

LOL! She's not even qualified to do that. She was "singing" with her lips closed and holding the microphone above her head.

[silent_jonny]

That Nicki Minoj was like a walking STD.

ROFL!

[silent_jonny]

Ha!

DeAndre singing—it sounds like something from Jurassic Park

Good morning, jonny! I'm on my "morning after" Idol run......

So disappointed that DeAndre is going to sing another week. His screetching through an entire song is just....just.....ear-covering! UGH!

I think the drunk Canadian singing Bohemian Rhapsody in the back of the cop car sings better than DeAndre.

"I survived the Northridge quake of 1994 - I wouldn’t want to be in that mansion during a large tremor. "
"Or even a small one! It looked like it was barely hanging onto the hill."

Funny you should mention it....we actually did have a small quake last night, around 11pm Pacific (3.3) in So Cal. I wonder if the House on the Hill shifted off those weak looking stilts?

[big'ol_freeper]

Mornin’ Jonny!

[LA Woman3]

LOL! She's not even qualified to do that. She was "singing" with her lips closed and holding the microphone above her head.

Good point! That was a terrible performance!!!

Goad you liked it> I was feeling brave slapping it on FR. FEel free to share. I'm on the way to 300 views. It's fun looking at ths stats too.

Next time will go in another direction.

I call her Icky Minaj. She had to sleep her way into that singing gig.

[floriduh voter]

DeAndre sings way too high and I can’t believe they haven’t coached him to take it down a bit. Kathering McPHee’s mom is a coach. Why isn’t she telling him dogs are howling? Chalk on blackboard if you can’t sing in range people are comfortable listening in.

Mad Men is very faithful to the 60's..everyone smoked..incessantly..remember it was the era of BIG Tobacco, and tobacco companies were the largest advertisers on TV..they had tremendous power over the airwaves..and everyone drank.....to a fault..the 3 martine lunch was the norm..

There's a classic tale.. about a memo that one advertising company suposedly sent to all its executives..( I think I can remember it:

"Management requires that all employees on company expense accounts do not drink vodka. Any other liquor is permissible. Because vodka is odorless, and thus it is impossible to gtell if you have if fact been drinking, we would not want the clients to think that the stupid statements coming from your mouths were your real ideas, and not because you were in fact bombed at the time."

Only reason I wanted Heejun to stick around is becuase on Beatles' Night, I wonder if he was gonna sing "Hey Jude"
