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!

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.

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 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...

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.

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 :(

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

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?!?!?!?!?!

Well guys what about last night?

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!

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...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
