Adam
I think Adam is a wonderful singer. I also think he has a pretty big set to take on a Johnny Cash classic. That was awful.
Adam
I knew Adam was gay the first week AI was on. Doesn't matter a lick to me. He's talented and his sexual orientation shouldn't have anything to do with him winning. JMO.
Did you all know that Adam
was planted by Randy. He'd done work for Randy's studio before. Explains why he's been their 'chosen one', because they literally already did choose him. I don't have any faith that the show isn't rigged.

Oh, me too - Love Adam
He was one of the only ones I absolutely loved last night. I think overall a lot of them gave poor performances, although I did love the 16 year old, I can't think of her name. My daughter voted quite a bit last night for the both of them.
I totally believe Adam has this in the
bag unless he totally screws up. With the exception of his Ring of Fire interpretation (which wasn't really bad, just totally off the wall) I really believe he is the best of the lot. Think he and either Danny or Allison will be in the finals.
Adam's Mad World
I thought he was excellent! I started out liking Danny and still kind of do, but he doesn't have me on the edge of my seat with anticipation about what he's going to do this week. I start out not carying either way about Adam, and now I think he's the best. Loved this performance!
FYI - Idol ran 7 minutes over on Tuesday night and Adam performed last, which is why you probably missed, and why most people's Tivo's missed it too!

I love Adam
He's unique and amazing. I do like Danny though and would be just as happy if he wins.
Adam still is the one to beat
Yes, I agree he's become over-hyped. But to be honest, he's the only reason I am watching AI this season. All the other contestants remaining are BORING. I do believe Allison has a great voice and could have a very good future in music. Danny's songs all sound alike, and I have found him uninteresting from day 1, although he does have a decent voice. I always look forward to Adam, he is so talented and diverse. I don't get it when people say he's screechy, that's not what I'm hearing, LOL! He is on a totally different level than all the remaining contestants. My only beef with Adam is that his eye makeup looks so much better than mine does (when I bother with it).
Adam might appear to be like your husband says, but
his demeanor is actually really nice. Softspoken, when he is not singing and screaming and rather shy.
Very good looking and really innovative!
I think he will be the winner!
Adam may be talented, but NOTHING about his
nm
I like Adam....Have from the beginning...
I hope he wins. He is a rocker, have you listened to a rocker who doesn't scream?
Adam deserves the win
But America is voting, and "niceness" and mediocrity ofen wins out over raw, unbridled creativity and talent. It just turns a lot of people off. People gravitate toward the familiar and comfortable, and that's what Kris is. Nice voice, pleasant personality, but compared to Adam, like sitting back and watching the grass grow. Adam will be a huge star, win or lose. At this point, it doesn't really matter who wins.
I think that Adam is by far the better singer
Yesterday he was screeching only 1 song.
The 1st song, Bad World, was quite mellow.
Great voice !
Adam deserves to be the winner.
Who watched 'Dancing with the Stars?'
I think Gilles should have gotten the crystal ball.
Shawn? Nah !
and *Click* with Adam Sandler...nm
I don't know, I have a thing for Adam Sandler myself :-) (nm)
n
I want to see it soon - I love Adam Sandler! (nm)
x
Adam Sandler - he would be so funny (sm)
I've had a doctor recently sing the last names of patients - I love it when they realize there is a real human listening to them :-)
I think Adam Sandler would make me laugh all day.
To say that Adam's was unique is a mouthful!
I thought he sounded like a little girly guy. Now don’t get me wrong, maybe that is what he wants but heck no I thought the song was horrific. Ugh!
I get a little tired of the hype over Adam.
nm
Good point! I could never buy a CD of Adam's
nm
Adam and Gookey in the final
,,,,,,,and Adam to win!
I was glad Adam was in the bottom two.
He's getting so monotonous. I would have preferred Allison go before Matt though. And what about Kris?! He should've gone before Matt or Allison. Guess the young girls are voting enough for him to keep him around. Either way, at this point, as long as Danny stays, I'm happy :)
I wonder how much damage is being done by the groups like 'vote for the worst' and DJs who tell them to do that, etc... Wish they'd let it play out without interference.
We actually turn down the volume when Adam
nm
Adam is so hyped. No one has a chance.
nm
Adam and Allison should be in the finals,nm
nm
Adam best thing that ever happened to AI
Let's face it, the show's seen better days. It was fading, then along came Adam. I for one would not be watching this season if not for him. I'm sick and tired of American Idols' antics, yet Adam keeps me coming back. Next year I'm done.
Adam Walsh mystery solved
The guy who did it confessed on his death bed. It was the guy John Walsh always thought did it. I'm glad they will finally get some peace now cause 26 years is a long time to wait.
Adam is all over the internet with his own French kissing but
not with a member of the opposite sex. Oh-la-la
All of Adam's songs are starting to sound exactly
alike. I think he peaked too soon & that's all he's got. The same predictable screams in every song... I think it's really getting boring.
Adam? Cant stand him either. Idol is a joke
nm
I thought Adam's voice was SO annoying.
nm
all Adam Sandler movies will make you laugh
nm
Adam Sandler, Michael Jordan, The Rock (sm)
How's that for variety? LOL!
Adam and Eve, to tell them to stay the heck away from the forbidden tree!!! sm
Tell me we wouldn't be in better shape just hanging in the Garden of Eden??? (When my daughter was little, she used to wish she had a time machine so she could go back).
I prefer Danny. He's got soul, unlike Adam.
x
Adam's screaming is getting repetitive, predictable, and boring... All his
x
well, I certainly hope that...sm
everyone on the plane wasn't hovering around this woman while she nursed...good grief!
Mind your own business and you'd never even know the baby was being nursed...dang!
By the way, at Disneyland.. how many butts and boobs did you see hanging out of shorts and tops? Did *yo momma* report them to the security and hold them hostage while they were told to leave? Huh? Doubt it!
Hope you are doing well... sm
I totally understand how you may be feeling. I was only able to get pregnant one time and lost the baby four weeks into the pregnancy, but I was the most pregnant woman in the world during that time. How special I felt; how special my husband and I felt together with this miracle growing inside me. Then, our world was shattered by the loss of the child we dreamt of. It took me a long time to get to a place in my heart where I could talk openly about the loss and grieve for our lost child. We prayed and prayed that God would bless us again, but it didn't happen the way we expected. I did not get pregnant again. Our little girl in heaven would be age 22 now.
Then, at the age of 40, when we had all but given up on parenthood, we met a 16-year-old unwed mother at our church. She was raising her infant daughter by herself and living in a shelter. She had decided to bring this child into the world instead of taking the easier road and aborting her. God bless her for that. She and her infant daughter came to live with us for over three years, restoring the joy of having a child to our home. For that time, we were content being "Nana and Pappaw." Then, the birth mom got involved with a man who wrecked her life and caused her to have to give up her child for adoption. We did not want this to happen to her, but the Lord intervened and we were able to adopt her daughter as our own. She is now 11 years old, is a wonderful child, bright, loving, and full of life. Her birth mom left the man who caused all the trouble, and God blessed her with a wonderful husband and a son. We now have contact with her new family by telephone, and she is like a daughter to us as well. Our 11-year-old daughter is so amazing, and so much like us that it is almost frightening! God, in His infinite wisdom, will restore you, just as He restored us. Trust in Him and trust His timing. We will be praying for you as you go through this chapter in your life. We are also in the State of Georgia, and you may email me at any time, should you need to talk to someone who has been there, and reassurance that God loves you and there are a lot of people out here praying for you. May God richly bless you throughout the holidays, and may you find His peace which passes all understanding.
Hope
 Like the other MT said . . . I believe that there is a love match for every person on this planet. This could be the "one". Follow your heart. It is better to have loved and lost than to never have been loved. (Someone really great said that!) Take it slow and enjoy the ride. Have fun!
I sure hope so... but, we won't
give up on them. We are season ticket holders (nose bleed section of course), but we love it. Our daughter loves them more than our son, she has not had the opportunity to go to a game yet. But one of the guys in front of us want to trade up some tickets so he can bring his family. He has two seats and we have two seats, so maybe that will work out for next season. It is a blast! Of course, my Dad was from Southeast Philly, so I grew up on 'em. I'm looking forward to the Phillies' games, too. We do not have season tickets for them, but I wish... if only.... .
I hope you are right..sm
I really don't think that for just a traffic ticket they would spend money to send some officer to another city to make good on a warrant, but you just never know. Depends on the judge who issued the warrant I guess. Your court records may be sealed, but I do believe the patitioner and defendent names are on a court dockett, and that is made public, though. If I remember right, it is posted by the court room door, but that is the state I live in. who knows. Either way, I wish you luck...with both your ticket and your child support issue! Think positive thoughts! :8]
Hope it is JT's but, sm
you are probably right. This may be old news, but she looks preggers in realy life. She and JT married in real life and it all happened so quickly most of her castmates didn't know until afterwards.
I so hope your dog does well sm
Our neighbor had the same problem with a mixed breed with a bit of terrier mixed in. It took her a bit longer to heal, but she is now doing wonderful. Isn't is amazing how much we love our furry friends? They will love us no matter what!!!
I hope you are right. Nothing would
be too severe. This country has to take a much harder look at this for so many reasons. We would love to think that everyone respects these beautiful creatures, but sadly not the case. In my local area alone the horror stories make me ill. I am going to put a post on about puppy mills the effect it had on my friend's dog.
I certainly hope not...
But I think she's way too selfish to get married any time soon. I see them breaking up when he gets ready to get married (he's only 20), cause she's too wrapped up in herself to be a wife...or am I just wishful hoping??? 
hope
Has your daughter changed her mind yet? The Navy sent my son's friend to Behran way back when the war first started. The other poster had marhvelous good luck with her husband and her sister and their Navy experience.
I hope they can get you right in!
Dentists where I am are few and far between and it's a real problem. When I lost my childhood filling there, the tooth was too far gone to be saved. Well, it could have been saved but the cost was as much as monthly mortgate and car payment combined, so it went bye-bye. I balled my eyes out for almost 2 days because it was then that I realized I would probably wind up toofless the older I got, as I had no idea how expensive dental care was. Having your own teeth should be a luxury, ya know?
You take care of yourself and it's good to "see" ya!
hope you are still okay -
after the root canal I was great for 2 days - then pain hit again, radiating all over my jaw - still had no pain medicine - was ready to hit the streets!!! Needed more antibiotics and eventually and 2000.00 later I am okay. I did get some relief from the Anbesol stuff and ice packs on my face. Hope it's over soon.
I hope you had fun! sm
But I just can't go in those anymore. We were just at the wax museum in Las Vegas and I just couldn't make myself go in the little haunted house there. My friends said it was more funny than scary. I have beeen getting more and more scared of them over the years but I made the HUGE mistake of going into that castle at Universal Studios and I didn't know it was a haunted house and I was TERRIFIED through the whole thing. I held on to my friend's ponytail the whole way. I think that was the last one I'll ever go in.
Just one more! Hope these help someone!
Don’t think of her as gone away
Her journey’s just begun
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one
Just think of her as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know, today
Now nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she is loved so very much

A Woman and a Fork
There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had been given three months to live. Therefore, as she was getting her things “in order”, she contacted her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes.
She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in. Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her.
“There’s one more thing,” she said excitedly.
“What’s that?” the Pastor’s reply.
“This is very important,” the young woman continued. “I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.”
The Pastor stood looking at the young woman, not knowing quite what to say.
“That surprises you, doesn’t it?” the young woman asked.
“Well, to be honest, I’m puzzled by the request,” said the Pastor.
The young woman explained. “My grandmother once told me this story, and from that time on I have always tried to pass along its message to those I love and those who are in need of encouragement.
In all my years of attending socials and dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of the main course were being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and say, ‘Keep your fork.’ It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming…like velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple pie. Something wonderful, and with substance!
So I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder, “What’s with the fork?” Then I want you to tell them: “Keep your fork, the best is yet to come.”
The Pastor’s eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the young woman and said good-bye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better grasp of heaven that he did. She had a better grasp of what heaven would be like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience and knowledge.
She KNEW that something better was coming.
At the funeral people were walking by the young woman’s casket. They saw the cloak she was wearing and the fork placed in her right hand.
Over and over, the Pastor heard the question, “What’s with the fork?” And over and over, he smiled.
During his message, the Pastor told the people of the conversation he had with the young woman shortly before she died. He also told them about the fork and about what it symbolized to her.
He told the people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either. He was right. So the next time you reach down for your fork, let it remind you, ever so gently, that the best is yet to come!
(When I read this the first time, it ended here)
Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us. Show your friends how much you care. Remember to always be there for them even when you need them more. For you never know when it may be their time to “Keep their fork”. Cherish the time you have, and the memories you share…being friends with someone is not an opportunity but a sweet responsibility.
Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND even if it means sending back to the person who sent it to you. And keep your fork!
I hope you get it! (sm)
I'm afraid it will be pretty wet snow that doesn't stick to the ground, but at least you and your kids will get to see it falling.
