I seriously LOL'd at these and almost choked on my breakfast!

Jonny- your Randy in Journey is so completely awesome on so many levels. The tilting of his head back with that really feelin' it face is beyond words. LMAO

[peggybac]

Jonny, you’re brilliant. Thanks for the pings and thanks for giving this woman escape from the world 2 nights per week.

[skateman]

jonny, I’m excited about new thread. Here’s hoping a certain “friend” doesn’t realized we’ve moved.

[twin2]

jonny, your talent is amazing!!!! and I made the quote board twice!

I'd forgot that last quote but this thread is truly a joy, and you all make it so.

[twin2]

pinging you here to read your twin’s moments of brilliance

Show “insider” claims the show is fixed!!!!

Funny how this person picks the 4 people that someone who watches the show would assume to be top contenders anyway.

I will have to snoop around here more often. Nothing like four pesky kids to keep you away from Idol watching and posting.

[Fawn]

I just read that...if that Fantasia wanna be sounds like wins I’m done with this show. Fantasia is was a bad joke.

[ken5050]

Wait a sec!!!...I know that today’s St Paddy’s day..and it falls on a weekday..but I’m absolutely positive that Jasmine and Jorge have been eliminated already..or was that LAST season?

[TurtleStink]

The biggest scandal of the day should be Adam Lambert mocking our National Anthem with his gay friends. This is after all “American” Idol. It seems to be cool, even around here, that Adam is an open Drag Queen Gay Guy as long as he can SING. That is what it is all about. RIGHT!

Well yes he can sing and he can openly MOCK everyone of our Armed Forces and us ourselves as being like sheep. Go watch this video and then tell me whether Adam Lambert deserves to be an AMERICAN Idol.

[RMDupree]

WOOT! Nothing like that brand new thread smell. :-)

Thanks so much, jonny. Love ya!

[Majie Purple]

Now I know what's kept You busy!...one thing,anyway. Thread 2 for '09!!

I don't feel well, and I'm having tests run on Thurs. So I'm gonna bow out of Thread visits during the live Thread/show time this week...

Take care!

BBASAP...

Adam Lambert Kissing Photos

[twin2]

I hope you feel better and that all goes well for you on Thursday. Let us know.

I'll be late tonight as I am attending the Lenten mission at church, plus I'm wearing green too.

[Mark was here]

Adam does the Star Spangled Banner

More on the one with painted fingernails

[nufsed]

bite me

[no more apples]

YO! Back at ya!

[no more apples]

I really wish you hadn’t posted that - eeeewwwww!

[no more apples]

I’ll be back later - I have to go teach a class.

MJ's Blog has a partial spoiler alert on song choices from someone who saw the rehearsal:

Megan didn’t perform and we never saw her - she had a “wardrobe malfunction.”
Matt Giraud - So Small (played piano)
Scott MacIntyre - I recognized his song, but for the life of me I can’t remember the name of it.(played piano)
Michael Sarver - Ain’t Goin’ Down Till the Sun Comes Up
Allison Iraheta - Blame It on Your Heart
Kris Allen - To Make You Feel My Love (sat on a stool)
Adam Lambert - Ring of Fire (very sexy Eastern-influenced version that pretty much made every woman over the age of 20 in the audience ready to jump him)
Lil Rounds - Independence Day
Danny Gokey - Jesus, Take the Wheel (partial standing O)
Alexis Grace - Jolene
Anoop - You Were Always on My Mind

I think Alexis Grace singing Jolene might be good.

[retrokitten]

See ya later, lady!

[silent_jonny]

Because I'm sick of seeing two men kiss each other (Good Lord ...), I thought I'd post some photos of Carrie Underwood at the Grand Ole Opry. Enjoy :)

Carrie with tonight's Idol mentor, Randy Travis. This might have been the day she was inducted into the Opry.

Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride and Julianne Hough perform "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" at the Opry, December 17, 2008.

[silent_jonny]

Thank you :)

[retrokitten]

Oh wow. Am I the only one who is slightly underwhelmed with those choices?

I agree that Alexis will probably do a nice job with Jolene, but the rest leave me slightly meh.

[silent_jonny]

Thanks :)

I seriously LOL'd at these and almost choked on my breakfast!

LOLOL!!

I was going to include your "chunky" quote in there, but I picked something else at the last minute ;)

[Mark was here]

Yeah, thank you, too. It is just too wierd.

[retrokitten]

What was my chunky quote?

[silent_jonny]

Adam Lambert - Ring of Fire (very sexy Eastern-influenced version that pretty much made every woman over the age of 20 in the audience ready to jump him)

Guess they haven't seen the photos, LOL

I'm not sure how Lambert will queer-up a song about a hetero love affair, but I'm sure he'll try :(

[TurtleStink]

Danny could be really good on his.

Alexis needs to be a little less hooker edge from last week.

And honestly can’t you be excited about drag queen singing ring of fire?

[peggybac]

This woman wouldn’t go near that car wreck. He skeers me - I wouldn’t want to catch anything.

[silent_jonny]

“Hope and change can bite my chunky white butt.” LMAO!

[silent_jonny]

Thank you, Peggy :)

[silent_jonny]

Thank you so much :) I truly appreciate that.

[peggybac]

You are welcome. I haven’t told you often enough how talented you are. I visit your page a lot and love looking at your paintings - they are awesome, and, so are you.

[silent_jonny]

I can’t believe Lil Rounds didn’t choose “I Will Always Love You”. Not that I wanted her to.

Hi Jonny :)

[peggybac]

That’s interesting. Can’t wait to hear them. Thanks for posting.

[maggief]

[retrokitten]

Yeah, I thought that little bit was weird, too. Even if there weren’t pictures of Adam dressed in drag all over the internet, Adam is not someone I would be swooning for.

He seems high-maintenance. Like he’d ask, “Do these skinny jeans make me look fat?” “Did you take my flat iron?” and call his hairspray, “Product.”

{shudder} Hipsters- a modern plague.

[retrokitten]

Oh...THAT chunky quote. LMAO
