I am so charmed by Simon's geniune affection for Melinda Doolittle on American Idol. I mean getting up and giving her the kiss and saying "I'm so pleased for you" when she was voted into the top 24? All of the times he says how nice she is and how brilliant her singing is? Saying last night that she should be in the finale? The little smiles ( Read more... )

Via killabeez: In honor of the birthday boy, post one of your favorite Sam Winchester quotes in your LJ.

"Hope's kinda the whole point."

Oh, Sammy.

Is anybody else watching Survivorman on the Discovery channel? It's neat! And it's rife with fic possibilities. We watched one last night where he was surviving in the Canadian Arctic, Nunavut to be exact ( Read more... )

There are still unguessed lyrics in yesterday's song meme. :)

I need five author's choice prompts for my ds_aprilfools table. Suggestions?

I watched American Idol again last night. I'm still rooting for Melinda, but I actually liked Blake for the first time. Not enough to want him to win, but I enjoyed his performance. I'd like Chris R. to get voted ( Read more... )

YOU GUUUUYS. The first four and a half minutes of Drive are up at Yahoo, here. (Rumor is you can view it from an international IP as well? Please confirm or deny!)

I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS SHOW. ALSO! ( spoiler for the clip only )

So I learned basically nothing new at my last lesson, and that drives me crazy. Not because I feel like I'm not getting my money's worth (what I'm paying for the lessons is worth it just as incentive to practice), but because I'm impatient, and I feel like time spent going over things I already know is time I'm not spending learning something new ( Read more... )

I dreamt about American Idol the other night, before I'd had a chance to see the performance episode. It included the Top 12 all dressing up as clowns and singing a song together. A knock-down drag-out fight between Kevin Covais and Chris Rock over the Mayor of Los Angeles. Kevin Covais and Taylor sharing some inside joke where Kevin calls him ( Read more... )

Happy Friday, LJ! I'm spreading the joy via two hilarious links from tzikeh:

I still haven't seen the CSI finale yet. It's killing me to know whether ( Read more... )

I love Dinosaur Comics SO VERY MUCH. Here is my current favorite. ("ALREADY.") But I like this one, too. ("I've seriously never been impressed with a plant!") And also this one. Daaaay-o. Ok I'm done. FOR NOW.

I really came here to today to talk about last night's American Idol so I can make my predictions before tonight's ouster.

So I'm skimming TWoP and Graycharles.com and getting my pre-show fix. In doing so, I came across a clip of Simon's appearance on Jay Leno's show and dudes. DUDES. You must download this clip (the link below is to the site where you can d/l it).

SIMON + RYAN 4EVA!!!!11!

I'm sad to report that I though really wanted to attend this year's American Idol tour (don't judge me!), I cannot, as they are coming to Washington during Dragoncon weekend. Le sigh. As for last night's show, ( Read more... )
