Ok, why would you need to close your eyes to like David Cook? I think he's freakin adorable. And Paula was right when she said women like smart men. I wouldn't want Tennis Boy to father my children, sorry. I'd pick the guy who understands me when I use big words. And he's so cute!

:lol::lol: Different taste... I don't care for the greasy, just woke up out of bed look that he has. I said I liked him better when I only had to listen to him. Who is Tennis Boy? :lol::lol:

I never did finish watching last week's performances.

I'm so out of the loop, lol. I haven't been watching at all since they stopped airing at 8:00...I guess I need to set my recorder so I can at least see the performances, lol.

I do tend to find that my tastes differ from a lot of women's. I actually don't think Michael Johns is attractive at all, he sneers when he sings. Totally puts me off. 'Tennis Boy' was referring to a promo spot they ran about a guy who's 'surpising thing about himself' is that he plays tennis. Gee, that's fascinating. I don't remember which one of them that was though, it's kinda funny if it's Michael Johns.

Yeah Michael is an athlete, he has played a lot of different sports but went to college on a tennis scholarship. He also has been a tennis intructor the last few years.

I thought everyone did pretty well last night. It wasn't my favorite from David Cook, but even his average is pretty darn good.

My favorite performances were Michael Johns and Jason Castro.

I'm going to pull a Randy and say that everyone else "was just allright for me" :lol:

They weren't bad, but they didn't blow me away either.

Jason Castro blew me away last night. I think that was by far his best performance. I love that version of Somewhere over the Rainbow and he did it beautifully.

I agree. It was amazing and Jason sang it so beautifully.

That is one of my favorite songs, the version that he sang of Iz Kamakawiwoʻole's.

Mmmmm... Me too. I get choked up every time I hear it. Last night was no exception. The original version of the song just doesn't have the same passion as Iz's.

My 6 year old niece wanted to know if Paula was embarassed because of her boobs falling out. I found that to be an odd choice of a dress (or shirt, what was it?).

Did anyone who watched Idol Gives Back think CELIAC when that poor autoimmune disease riddled family was on?

I didn't see the show, but I did see a clip of Michael Johns singing Aerosmith and that's the first time I've liked him. I still don't think he's attractive though. He just looks... tense. I gotta look up the clips of the other performances. I do like Jason Castro, he's the kinda guy I'd go see in a cabaret setting, not the kinda guy who sells out civic centres. I shouldn't say that though, because I saw John Andrasik from Five for Fighting in a multi-artist concert in a huge civic centre and he just played his piano and he had EVERYONE'S attention. So maybe JAson Castro really could 'get there'. I also think he's a STONER!

And I love Iz too, anybody heard Eva Cassidy's version?

I'll join that club. He's my favorite, out of the guys.

That was my favorite performance the other night. The rest were just all right for me too. :lol: I won't surprise you all by saying that I really did not like David Cook, even with my eyes closed. :lol:

I also tivod it, so I'll look for that family you are talking about Angie.

I peeked in this thread to see who got kicked off, but I guess they didn't do it last night on the special? I noticed on the tv schedule there is an extra show this week on tonight for the elimination.

Geesh, these two and three nights a week shows are killing me trying to keep up!

Yes, I agree! Currently, I work part-time some nights. When I'm home, we rarely turn the TV on until after 9:00 p.m.. Thank goodness for Tivo!!

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
