neon………..yes, where I live is safe from everything but earthquakes which rarely happen. (crossed fingers since we are due) But Griffith Park is a jewel and is right in the middle of the city with potential to cross down into the valley. Now they are saying they are evacuating the zoo. OMG what a task that is going to be.
I know you in Fla. have had lots of fires the last few years too, and isn’t there one in Ga. right now too. It is very strange weather. So hot for this time of year, and especially in SF where it was 80 today. Very unusual for them.
The fires are in GA and northern FL but the smoke is reaching us down here in Tampa. Some brush fires also started in Sarasota (just south of Tampa). They have issued a health advisory because of the smoke. I recall a few years back that east Florida has some brush fires but the smoke never traveled this far before that I can recall. It looks like fog but when you step outside you can smell the smoke and your eyes start burning a bit. It’s really freaky!
I hope the animals in the zoo will be okay - hopefully they have a good evacuation plan.
neon………..I understand how that is. Sometimes when we get fires, like in Malibu, we get not only the smoke but ash all the way over here.
I think Jordin did good on both of her songs, Melinda too. It’s probably going to come down to them.
I want an 80’s alternative rock night on idol. I am listening to Violent Femmes and Psychedelic Furs right now and am having fun thinking of Melida, Lakisha and Jordin singing these songs. Although you could throw REM in there and they would have a lot to choose from. Or in honor of Blake’s hometown Seattle, they could do some Grudge music. I just don’t want to hear any more power ballads. I thought I was safe tonight with BeeGees but dammit if those girls didn’t find some.
neon………they at least need some PTFMWB or Renegade to liven things up.:) They have started issuing mandatory evacuations downtown, so I am going to try to find a station that has info. This could really be disastrous. Have a good nite.
Wow. Fires on East and west coast and tornados in the Midwest. Freaky weather indeed. I don’t see anything on the news websites yet about CA, yet. Will keep you guys over there in my thoughts and pray that everyone is safe.
I also voted hard for Blake, PJ. I liked his vocals tonight if not all of the beatboxing. My beef is the genre. Bee Gee songs just aren’t good for most singers. They’ve never been my favorite at best of times but I’m looking back fondly to all of the other weeks.
Me too pj. I just think it was this theme that killed him.
It’s amazing how a theme can eithe make you or break you.
I am just rewinding all of his previous performances. Gosh he did so amazing on Latin night with Jlo, The best ever with Bon JOvi.
Who would have thunk it?
I still think Blake will get the pimp spot on Top 3 night and will make a cmeback once again. JMHO.
I must be weird but there was a part of Blake’s first song that I thought was absolutely brilliant. Cracked me up when Randy said don’t beatbox every time. Until last week, Blake hadn’t cracked a beat box move in weeks. Randy said he should use it more now he tells him to not use it. geez.
By the way Blake has a great recording voice.. Have you guys heard his mp3’s? Just saying… Sigh. Give the guy a break.
He had the BEST EVER performance last week and it was hard to top it off with a Bee Gees theme.
He has been as consistant as Melinda.
He will have a great career and be very successful I am sure.
A thoroughly disappointing night - kinda got a nauseous feeling after each song by all of them - very amateurish, bland and uninspiring. Sigh… kind of wraps up the whole season for me.

May 8th, 2007 at 11:30 pm I’ll admit that he didn’t have his best night. No one did. But to say someone is “sacrificed” for him is a little over the top. There are four left in the competition. To me, Blake has been the most consistant other than Melinda. And far more interesting than Melinda. That’s why he gets my votes.
I completely agree. I voted hard for Blake for both hours.

Just a reminder in case anyone has forgotten, Jordin is just 17;)
Ok, this reminder is for real, Mother’s Day is on Sunday if anyone has cards they need to get mailed out:)

I was shocked when they said that on the show last night. I mean who knew?
I completely agree. I voted hard for Blake for both hours.
