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!!

I thought so too. I am not liking Carly as much as I used too. I still really like Brooke.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
