Serate | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:34 pm     Thanks Twinkie! |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:44 pm     Serate...you called 23 times? Dang, see if you can save Rickey will ya? |
Serate | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:44 pm     OK so I've endured Cher for 40 minutes, I'd ALMOST rather endure finger flapping for 5 minutes. Almost. I like some of Cher's stuff but this is driving me crazy. Gonna get off her so I can go hit redial and see how many more times I can vote to keep Carmen here at least one more week. [Clay and Ruben are still my boys, just think she did a much better job than the judges gave her credit for!]. |
Serate | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:46 pm     yep Car just kept hitting redial. Only got a busy a couple of times. Unfortunatley that probably means she's gone. I'll call for Ricky too. I loved him tonight [as long as I didn't look at the hat]. |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:51 pm     LOL, Serate, I saw the commercial for Cher's farewell...and I was thinking "You promise?" Wonder if this will be an annual tour? |
Grneyedladye | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:53 pm     I am calling for Ricky and have gotten in about 25 times. The lines are not busy for him, Kim L & Josh but, for Ruben I have only gotten in 2 votes so far. But I really like Ricky (hated the hat though)so I don't want him to go. The ones I didn't care for were Kim C, Carmen or Trenyce. |
Twinkie | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 06:59 pm     I'm worried now. I called in for Clay at least 35 times and never once got a busy signal. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:03 pm     Twinkie, I had more trouble getting in for Clay than I did for Ruben. I got tons of busy signals for Clay and only a couple for Ruben. It is all very strange! I wonder if it depends on where you are? Anyway, I am sure he is safe. |
Twinkie | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:05 pm     Hermione, I did wait for half an hour to start calling. Any week I've tried to call before that I always gotten busy signals. |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:07 pm     See, I think Ruben did such a kick ass job closing the show, people will just remember him and forget someone like Kim L who did a wonderful job tonight. Somehow I think Kim C is gonna be in the bottom 3 a lot but not go. |
Twinkie | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:09 pm     Car, I thought Kim C. was the worst tonight she's ever been. She was off tune alot and her voice seemed to tremble. |
Hermione69 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:11 pm     Hi Twinkie, Last week I didn't have trouble getting through to anyone! Before that, it took me 45 minutes to get through for either Clay or Ruben. I just wondered if they added more lines or have some freed up and reassigned now that the numbers are dwindling. But, like I said, I had more trouble getting through for Clay than Ruben tonight, which surprised me a bit, but even then not THAT much of a problem. Had no trouble at all for Kim L. or Rickey. Have a great night, everyone. I just popped my head in to say Hi and am off to bed. |
Whoami | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:11 pm     Trenyce did flap again tonight. When she stretched her arms out during the song, she flapped the fingers on both hands! Flapped them into her palm. |
Grneyedladye | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:13 pm     Boy, I am getting a little worried also. I can get in for Ricky, Josh, Kim L, Ruben & Clay. Weird.... I wonder if people are just not voting tonight |
Car54 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:17 pm     Move on, Who. or we are going to have to do an intervention on you and the finger thing. Twinkie, I just never dislike Kim C as much as most people do for some reason. I think she picked a bad song for her voice tonight tho. Must be the underdog thing happening. |
Maris | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:20 pm     First time ever for me, I called it in. I voted for Reuben. He was da bomb dawg. |
Fluff | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:21 pm     Hey, is there any place online where I can listen to tonight's performance???? |
Serate | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:31 pm     Dang Whoami I saw her flapping her left hand. THANK THE LORD I didn't see both hands at once or I would be banned from watching the show ever again if my fiance was anywhere near. I about had a cow when she started flapping in the air. *sings along with Cher even tho I'm sick of the show already* shoop shooop shoop shoop shoop that's where it is! |
Ketchuplover | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 07:56 pm     I'd comment,but I'm just a pile of mush in the road |
Grooch | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 08:21 pm     <scoops up Ketchup Lover with the dustbin and pours him into a ketchup bottle so he can rejuvenate back into a solid.> |
Wcv63 | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 08:22 pm     Ruben was wearing a black leather newsboy cap. Pork Pie hats are a very short, small brimmed version of stovepipe. A squattier (much) version if you will. If anybody ever watched Sex in the City, Carrie dated a guy who wore a porkpie hat. He was an ADHD musician and couldn't focus on just one thing or one instrument. He kept hopping from one interest to the next. I put in about 5 or 6 votes for Clay. I find myself not infused with the manacial "need" to hit redial as I was last year. I enjoyed most of the performances tonight. Trenyce DID finger flap while her arms were outstretched. It seems like it is a deeply ingrained habit that is a part of her style now. She always has that Mippy hair thing going )MPDP for Trading Spaces fans. Not fond of the wings. Her performance totally distracted me from her vocals. I'm not liking the granny boot trend. Is this coming back into fashion? I hope not because I think it creates a weird silhouette. Loved Clay and thought his performance was flawless. He does need to inject a different tempo and rhythm into his next song choices. Mix it up Clay!! Ruben was good but I still don't "get" the effluence of praise he gets. I don't find his songs to be particularly infused with emotion and pathos. Plus he is breathy during most of his performances. Of course, this is just my opinion. Kim C....Ack. I liked that song but Ack! Carmen is a cutie but I think she needs more maturity in her voice and performances. I have a feeling that with time she will be a real contender. Just not in this competition. Kim L. That song. That song. Oh my, that song. She did an okay job with it but I think she has issues with her lower register. Ricky...the hat was abysmal. The song did nothing for me. Josh? He's a marine. He loves his wife and child. (I said something nice about him because I feel unpatriotic if I don't.) |
Sadiesmom | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 08:52 pm     Does it cost per call? |
Kellsma | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 09:20 pm     No cost |
Whoami | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 09:22 pm     Move on Car? Awwww...I don't wanna! I feel like I've started a movement, and I'm rather proud of it! I did notice Trenyce's facial contortions a lot more tonight. And a bit of the winking someone else pointed out. I was a bit impressed (if that's the right word) that Kim C tried a song she would have to sing more than yell. Too bad the judges all nailed her for song choice. I did notice she never really held a note. She kind of clipped them off. Missed Clay cause my mom needed me. Rueben looked much better in his outfit tonight. He didn't look like a fat guy with nothing else to wear (before anyone flames, I'm a fat girl, and know what that's like!). I knew people would be screaming about Ricky's hat. It was rather dreadful! I wonder if he figured on picking up Corey's votes by wearing the hat. |
Monkeyboy | Tuesday, April 08, 2003 - 09:27 pm     I'm sorry, I know it's shallow of me but...Josh could have AT LEAST brushed his hair tonight! End of shallowness |
