And It Is Over

Alright so the world did not stop spinning when the winner of American Idol was announced last night and it was not my Lil' David. I love that kid, I do. My first thought, in all honesty, was oh no, his father is probably going to come down on that poor kid like a ton of bricks for not doing good enough because he seems like a Joe Jackson type of stage dad. They talked to lil' David's dad's dad last night and he said he was proud of his son (meaning David's dad). HUH? Your grandson is on stage singing you moron, not your son. Okay so your son pushed your grandson to where he is but come on. Stage parents, not a topic I should get started on, so let's move on.

Anywho, I think both David's will go on to do fine, and have careers, and anyway the second place winners usually do better as proven in the past, right? But they both seemed like such genuine guys and I am happy for Cook too. His family deserves a break with his brother being so sick and all. Last nights show was amazing. I have always known AI to drag their shows out, especially results shows. Last night the show flew by. I wish it were a 4 hour show, and not 2. The star power they had there was awesome, and George Michael, holy moly man, what a powerful song, with a powerful message. I do not care how many men, in how many bathrooms he has approached, he brought down the house. He was my first crush, other than Bucky Dent, when I was a kid. You know, when he was in Wham, with ummmm, did that other guy even have a name. Anyway I have never gotten so into AI before, other than the auditions, and I am going to true not to do it again.

I would really love to go see the AI tour this summer, not quite as much as I would like to see the NKOTB tour, but all that remains to be seen. You know with the economy sucking and all. Gas prices, food prices, yada, yada. But I won't get started on all that.
