Every once in awhile, it happens. Yay!
Seriously, having never spent much time paying attention to the National League, I had never really heard much about Bonds before. When I moved here, you know, being a hero and all, that's all I ever hear about. What struck me at first is how much he fucking complained about his life all the time and yet he lives on a pedestal. All he has to do is snap his fingers. I didn't believe it was possible, but he's even a bigger, whinier spoiled brat than Griffey. I guess that's what happens when you grow up around famous ball players.
I couldn't understand all the adulation. I still don't. Of course, I still don't understand why people live outside of the courthouse waiting to see Michael Jackson.

Question for whomever is left
So I'm thinking of going somewhere warm and sunny this weekend. Most likely that will not be here. I think LA is also going to have rain. Anyone having good weather?

Right now the weather forecast for the weekend in LA (from CNN weather) is sunny and 68 both days. Though no doubt that can change. I'll be in Vegas this weekend (surprise!), so I need to check out the weather there...

We do. But do you really want to be travelling on a spring break weeekend?

Good point. But yes, have to get out of here. It's like a second winter right now.

American Idol
I guess you can have do-overs.
“American Idol” displayed incorrect phone numbers for three singers after Tuesday night's edition of the Fox show aired. Fox has announced that the network will air a new performance show Wednesday night (9 p.m. ET) and re-open the voting, with the results show moved to Thursday. According to FOX, "this new show will combine new live elements with encores of Tuesday's performances from the remaining 11 contestants."
So all those votes for Anwar, Mikaela and Jessica went to tracheotomy boy, fat boy, and Carrie. One of the guests is saying network conspiracy. Probably Mikaela since she's leaving soon anyway.

Count your blessings. That means your first winter ended. We're still wondering if the moguls have been groomed down.

I don't think that they bother grooming down the moguls until just before bathing suit season.

I don't understand this term tracheotomy boy. THe guy appears to have all this throat parts in tact. Its just a little long and unattractive.
And Simon was way the fuck off last night on mmost of the birds. That last chick sucked. That Bonnie Tyler cover was str8outtaCarivaleCruiseShip. Most of the chicks had too much backup singer which gave them a (strategic?) boost. especially Carrie who managed to turn a Heart eighties classic into a country tune. Fine if thats your bag. Only my man Bo Bice went practically unaccompanied. Just a violin and one other instrument. Poor Anwar sounded like he was singing backup to the backup singers. They should have a capella night.
Constantine is the worst singer. THis remindmed me of my little redhaired boy's rendition of Crocodile Rock. Good thing he is hot. I am going to pretend I didnt know about Elimindate. Ralphie May sucked too. Even chicken neck could have done that Phil Collins song more justice.
and I have figured out who Michaela looks like- Leona Helmsley meets Minnie Driver.

You haven't noticed the nice little round scar on his neck where he had a tracheotomy as a young boy?

Is this a joke? Do I whiff? Maybe I jsut don't know what a tracheotomy is. I thin k iassumed it was the removal of the Adam's Apple but maybe its the thing where smokers get their voice maker removed and talk with that metal box. it would be hard to sing with one of those.

What is a tracheotomy?
The TRACHEA is the part of the AIRWAY (or breathing passage) commonly known as the "windpipe". A tracheotomy is a surgical procedure that creates a temporary opening in the trachea. The hole itself is called a tracheotomy. The tube that is placed through this hole is called a tracheotomy tube.

Catherine Zeta-Jones has a similar scar.
Speaking of scars, I was reading a casting call for extras, and one of the disqualifiers was "facial scar."
It took me a second to remember that I have two. One is on my upper lip from when I was about ten and was going too fast through the woods on a four-wheeler and ended up with a tree branch in the face. The other was the infamous rugby scar. I don't think either one of them is particularly noticable unless you know what you're looking for, but it's funny that features that I consider part of my face are disqualifiers. You'd think that "ugly nose" or "lack of discernable eyebrow" would be more of a disqualifier than "facial scar."
