American Idol-The Girls-what I thought

So, was it just me, or did the judges seem bored? They were constantly off track, well, at least Randy and Paula. Simon was right on. Amanda actually did the best followed by Brooke and hmmm, maybe I dunno. I like Kristy Lee but Faithfully didn't totally work for me. My guess is that Kady will be gone for sure. It's a toss up as to who else.

Oh yeah, my picture!

In case anyone wants to know, which I don't know who, but the picture you see on my blog is from May 7, 2006. After a long time of wrestling with whether or not to go through believer's baptism, I went through with it. One night earlier in the week, I felt God tell me to do it. And this time, I didn't argue or bicker about it because I didn't have a reason not to. It was something I had to do and should have done a long time ago. That was an interesting week. I left a band that I had been a part of. Basically parting ways with one of the guys in the band who I was good friends with. And then May 7, it was just awesome. My good friend Brian Hill did the honors. He was the church's children's minister and I'd been playing with him in our children's band for a long time. I just felt he was the right guy to do the baptizing. And I love him for it! I miss him too.

American Idol-The Girls

Yeah, I'll be watching the girls tonight. The guys did ok last night. David Cook impressed me with his rocking version of Lionel Richie's Hello. David A did ok with Phil Collins. Even dreadlock boy Jason Castro was impressive with his choice. Even whiny emo kid Danny wasn't all that bad, but probably on the bottom 3 as far as my favorites.
Who will go home from them? I'm guessing Luke and Chekieze. Danny is going to get the teenage girl vote mainly because he wears girl pants. At least he can sing. Unlike Sanjaya.
So, who will wind up going home from the girls? I guess we'll find out how they do. I can't see Kady hanging in there much longer. Not sure who else though. I like the rocker nurse but her voice will limit her on theme weeks. Could you imagine her doing a Barry Manilow song????

Parents

This is going to be quick since I have a men's Bible study to go to this morning, but I can't help but feel sad for my parents. They went to visit a long time friend in a nursing home the other day. I've known this lady all my life. She and her husband have been married for nearly 75 years! They walked into the room and she had no clue who they were. When Dad sent me the e-mail on that I just didn't know what to say. I still don't. I'm not sure what this lady has but whatever it is has deteriorated her quickly. I just pray that the Lord will take her home soon.
