Wow, was Sanjaya scarey or what, lol. :lol: I couldn't even watch again...the hair and the song just didn't go together. :lol:

Overall I thought everyone was pretty good. I think I don't like Chris S's attitude (although it was a bit better last night).

Even Ryan questioned whether Melinda could still be surprised by the judge's good comments, lol. :lol: She's good though.

My favorites so far are Gina and Blake I think.

I understand Sanjaya had to come out of his shell to start getting people to remember his performances, let's face it he was too quiet and too boring....but I think he is going about it the wrong way. We should remember his singing not his scary hair. The boy needs to go home!

LOVE LaKisha, Melinda they are in a class of their own! thankfully their were no "but you look faboulous" comments from paula.

Well, Sanjaya is sticking around.

I was surprised he was not even in the bottom 3.

Last night was weird. I was actually surprised that Phil was in the bottom 3 after his performance Tuesday. I guess America really doesn't like him. I'm kind of glad to see Chris S. gone. He was one of my favorites in the beginning, but he's been getting on my nerves lately. Now... When will Sanjaya finally get booted?

Wow, I can't believe the kid is still there. I was a Chris S. fan, but he lost his edge, and got an attitude. I haven't been disappointed by anyone who went home, just surprised by who has stayed. I kinda feel bad for the kid. I read somewhere that he knows he should go home and how the adult America feels, and wishes he'd get voted off. I do give him credit for smiling through it all. He's not a seasoned performer, and only 17, and he is taking the criticism well. But he still needs to go.

I think Lakisha has an amazing voice, but she is so boring and picks the most boring songs, I end up flipping during her performance (and a few others). Did you know PBS has a good documenter on pearls :P

I only paid half attention to, i ws busy cleaning my boys room lol. I was happy to see chris go home, but i think sanjaya needed to be in the bottom 3, not phil passed on this weeks shows. I would have been happy if haley went home to, but they will keep her for little teen age boys have someone to vote for, or should i say any man lol.

OK, finally watched the shows...

:o Sanjaya's hair was something else! I was cracking up at Ryan coming out "Sanjaya'd" :lol:

I just simply cannot believe that he is still around. Maybe they need to change things up a bit next season and let the judges really "judge" and let America vote for the top 3 and winner or something.

I thought Jordin did a pretty good job on her song, even though her outfit was awful! Haley is just forgettable to me. I really think I am liking Blake better and better out of the guys. I also think that Gina is my favorite girl right now. I'm getting tired of Melinda and LaKisha.

I'm ok with Chris S. going home, although I wish it had been Phil or Haley instead. But, their time will come. Chris really butchered a great song!

Oh my gosh, Melinda was AWESOME!!! I think that was probably my favorite performance of the whole season so far! Even better than some of Blake's!!! Gina was totally awesome too. I really wish Chris R. would go home. I think I'd almost rather sit through Sanjaya at this point. He just bores me to tears. Jordin was awesome too tonight.

I cannot get over Simon telling Haley he liked her legs!

I was expecting Sanjaya to have blue hair or something else strange this week but he looked normal.

Gina sang a good song and I liked Blake.

Melinda was good, I am getting annoyed by her act when someone compliments her.

Chris R is not one of my favorites, and at first I liked him but lately he is boring. I liked Jordin tonight too and she looked a lot better than last week.

I just wanted to say that I am Sundance's Aunt and he is doing great he just got back from Hollwood he is signing with Universal records so he will be having a celiac disease out soon . I gave him a party on saturday and about 200 hundred people was at my house it was wild we had a great time. He sign autographs for all the kids with his picture. A 13 year old came all the way from Tenn he gave her his favorite hat that he wears fishing and sign it and gave her a demo celiac disease and a big kiss I thought she was going to pass out it was neat to watch she was so thank full he even gave her his phone # I will let everyone know when his celiac disease comes out. I told him when It does I will give him another party.

How fun to hear about Sundance! How exciting that he's signing a recording contract! And how funny that C D automatically turns to celiac disease. We all know what you mean. Thanks for the update.

votefortheworst.com is behind this one, and thanks to a mention on Howard Stern's radio show, they have a LOT more publicity this year than in the last couple of years. :\

I was a little bored last night again, when they do these kind of songs I find it hard to sit and watch. I enjoyed British Invasion and Pop Week. Hopefully next week will be a little more fun.

Well i missed the first few, i was at my kids soccer practice. But I did see from chris down while i was helping with homework. I did like jordin's, I so agree with what the judges were saying with haley, they know her body is what is getting her threw every week. I was also laughing at the comments about sanjaya, you can tell they have no idea why he stays so they figured to say he was awesome to hope they vote him out, it was nice tho that he looked normal for once. I missed melindas, but im glad i did, she just bugs me too much anymore. I think lakisha did a great job, and i think gina was awesome, it was nice to see that side of her, but i love her more when she the gina we all love.

I dont even want to say who i think will be gone, cause im learning the ones i want gone will never leave lol

I don't know, I thought Sanjaya looked a bit like Prince gone wrong. :lol:

I think I know why Simon said that to Haley, but it was still odd. I think he said that to say something nice because he didn't have anything else to say.

I also thought Melinda looked a little less surprised at the compliments...I hope that trend continues, lol.

Performance wise...I think I still liked Gina, but most of the others were good too.

I had a meeting last night and missed the show. Last year that would bug me, this year, I don't care. It had been too boring. I'm a little sorry I missed Blake and Gina.

I was listening to a radio show and they were talking about a poll People (I think that was the magazine) did. The readers voted and it predicted Blake the winner and Sanjaya second. I cannot stand the idea of Gina going before Sanjaya.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared. I highly recommend the two shot shingles vaccine as soon as your turn 50--I did this because I started to get the same tingling sensations in the same area, and after the vaccines I've never felt that again.  As you likely know, shingles is caused by chicken pox, which was once though of as one of those harmless childhood viruses that everyone should catch in the wild--little did they know that it can stay in your nervous system for your entire life, and cause major issues as you age.

      Gluten free nuts

      By Clear2me · Posted

      Thanks for the info. I recently moved to CA from Wyoming and in that western region the Costco and Sam's /Walmart Brands have many nuts and more products that are labeled gluten free. I was told it's because those products are packaged and processed  in different  plants. Some plants can be labeled  gluten free because the plant does not also package gluten products and they know that for example the trucks, containers equipment are not used to handle wheat, barely or Rye. The Walmart butter in the western region says gluten free but not here. Most of The Kirkland and Members Mark brands in CA say they are from Vietnam. That's not the case in Wyoming and Colorado. I've spoken to customer service at the stores here in California. They were not helpful. I check labels every time I go to the store. The stores where I am are a Sh*tshow. The Magalopoly grocery chain Vons/Safeway/Albertsons, etc. are the same. Fishers and Planters brands no longer say gluten free. It could be regional. There are nuts with sugar coatings and fruit and nut mixes at the big chains that are labeled gluten free but I don't want the fruit or sugar.  It's so difficult I am considering moving again. I thought it would be easier to find safe food in a more populated area. It's actually worse.  I was undiagnosed for most of my life but not because I didn't try to figure it out. So I have had all the complications possible. I don't have any spare organs left.  No a little gluten will hurt you. The autoimmune process continues to destroy your organs though you may not feel it. If you are getting a little all the time and as much as we try we probably all are and so the damage is happening. Now the FDA has pretty much abandoned celiacs. There are no requirements for labeling for common allergens on medications. All the generic drugs made outside the US are not regulated for common allergens and the FDA is taking the last gluten free porcine Thyroid med, NP Thyroid, off the market in 2026. I was being glutened by a generic levothyroxin. The insurance wouldn't pay for the gluten free brand any longer because the FDA took them all off their approved formulary. So now I am paying $147 out of pocket for NP Thyroid but shortly I will have no safe choice. Other people with allergies should be aware that these foreign generic pharmaceutical producers are using ground shellfish shell as pill coatings and anti-desicants. The FDA knows this but  now just waits for consumers to complain or die. The take over of Wholefoods by Amazon destroyed a very reliable source of good high quality food for people with allergies and for people who wanted good reliably organic food. Bezos thought  he could make a fortune off people who were paying alot for organic and allergen free food by substituting cheap brands from Thailand. He didn't understand who the customers were who were willing to pay more for that food and why. I went from spending hundreds to nothing because Bezo removed every single trusted brand that I was buying. Now they are closing Whole foods stores across the country. In CA, Mill Valley store (closed July 2025) and the National Blvd. store in West Los Angeles (closed October 2025). The Cupertino store will close.  In recent years I have learned to be careful and trust no one. I have been deleberately glutened in a restaurant that was my favorite (a new employee). The Chef owner was not in the kitchen that night. I've had  a metal scouring pad cut up over my food.The chain offered gluten free dishes but it only takes one crazy who thinks you're a problem as a food fadist. Good thing I always look. Good thing they didn't do that to food going to a child with a busy mom.  I give big tips and apologize for having to ask in restaurants but mental illness seem to be rampant. I've learn the hard way.          I don't buy any processed food that doesn't say gluten free.  I am a life long Catholic. I worked for the Church while at college. I don't go to Church anymore because the men at the top decided Jesus is gluten. The special hosts are gluten less not gluten free. No I can't drink wine after people with gluten in their mouth and a variety of deadly germs. I have been abandoned and excluded by my Church/Family.  Having nearly died several times, safe food is paramount. If your immune system collapses as mine did, you get sepsis. It can kill you very quickly. I spent 5 days unconscious and had to have my appendix and gall bladder removed because they were necrotic. I was 25. They didn't figure out I had celiac till I was 53. No one will take the time to tell you what can happen when your immune system gets overwhelmed from its constant fighting the gluten and just stops. It is miserable that our food is processed so carelessly. Our food in many aspects is not safe. And the merging of all the grocery chains has made it far worse. Its a disaster. Krogers also recently purchased Vitacost where I was getting the products I could no longer get at Whole Foods. Kroger is eliminating those products from Vitacost just a Bezos did from WF. I am looking for reliable and certified sources for nuts. I have lived the worst consequences of the disease and being exposed unknowingly and maliciously. Once I was diagnosed I learned way more than anyone should have to about the food industry.  I don't do gray areas. And now I dont eat out except very rarely.  I have not eaten fast food for 30 years before the celiac diagnosis. Gluten aside..... It's not food and it's not safe.  No one has got our backs. Sharing safe food sources is one thing we can do to try to be safe.
