I thought the kid who was a farmer was cute....I am glad they pushed him through. Simon liked him and the others were iffy.

The guy who came last cracked me up!

OMGosh...I had to turn the channel when Ryan was interviewing him... I just COULD NOT look at that bag'o'nails one second longer, it was actually making me physically sick, lol. I couldn't even watch his audition. Wow...

OMG, I loved the farmer guy, Drew. I thought he sounded very similar to Clint Black. He was adorable too. :)

I actually kind of liked the fingernail guy. He had an interesting personality. Not too sure on his talent, but the personality was cool.

The one I thought was a little weird was the guy who came and sung Kelly Clarkson Never Again. He looked sort of goth but he carried the picture of his kids, I think his name was Kyle.\

He called it guyliner instead of eyeliner....which I thought was funny.

Guhlia Rising Star

Yeah, he was definitely eccentric. He seemed like a nice kid though.

He was weird, i dont think i would want him as my kids counselor lol. But im sure it was just the act he was trying to protray cause i dont think if was really that odd in real life people would trust him.

i wondered what that they gut collected, i just seen him sing and they say why did u collect this, but never heard what he collected, i guess whatever floats ur boat lol

the stalker guy was scary but hilarious..."IF YOU WERE AN ERASER....I'D CHALK YOU" LOL

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

The stalker was odd....if you were a bathtub I would Caulk you....

His eyes really scared me.

Even if it was staged which I think it was, I could see him being a little off in real life...

confused Community Regular

When do we start back up, is it tommorow or tonight.

I didn't fully catch the TV ad I saw yesterday, but the only thing I heard was Tuesday. It seems to me that they usually have Idol on two nights, even for auditions, but I"m not sure, lol.

Guhlia Rising Star

Tuesday and Wednesday according to the american idol website.

yeah tuesdays and wednesdays until they get to the top 12

julie!! i can't believe u don't watch the auditions!!! they're the best part!!! (plus the finale, duh) :D :D

my favorites are carrie, kelly, and jordyn!! it's so sad, but i think idol really is losing a little steam... i mean there were some good people last season, but it really wasn't that entertaining overall :(

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I believe it is tomorrow night.

confused Community Regular

Thank you, i remember now it interferes with my biggest loser on tuesdays lol.

So last night that girl who thought she sounded like Mariah Carey....who was she kidding?

The guy with the big fans was a little off too....

dlp252 Apprentice

I didn't get to see any of it last night--sounds like I missed the typical stuff, lol.

Guhlia Rising Star

I really liked the last girl that performed, the one whose husband had the inked face. BTW, man was that cool! Anyway, I thought she was really talented. I really liked the little boy who had suffered from vocal paralysis too. I thought he was really sweet and could potentially make it to the top 10.

Where are all the rockers?!?!?!?!?!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular
Where are all the rockers?!?!?!?!?!

my thoughts exactly!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Well guys what about last night?

dlp252 Apprentice

Last night was almost painful, lol. I really did like the brother and sister team though...they had some great harmony going there...I'm glad they put them both through. They probably won't make it through to the final 12, but at least they'll get a shot.

I also thought some of the people not put through had some pretty good voices...they had pitch problems, but that probably could have been worked on. The only reason I even mention that is because it didn't seem like they found that many good ones, and I wondered why they let those go, but at the end they said they found 23 people, so I guess they found some much better voices...we just didn't get to see them all. :P

Hey Everyone!!!

American Idol has a rock chick!!!

She is from Atlanta and she is a nurse but dresses punk/goth! She was singing Janis Joplin and CCR. Her name is Amanda. All 3 judges were blown away! I am hoping for another Gina performance!

Guhlia Rising Star

I LOVED HER!!! She was awesome. I wasn't much of a Gina fan and I thought this girl was way better than Gina! That second song she did was insanely awesome! The first one sounded a little contrived.

Believe it or not, I also like that annoying little homeless boy. There was something about him...

dlp252 Apprentice

Aw sheesh, I missed the rock chick, lol!!! I actually didn't watch anything except the very first guy...the one they made turn around to sing. :lol:

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
