American Idol 6
I've been a bit busy and indisposed lately, as my lack of posting indicates. I've had enough time and energy to go through my blogroll, commenting here and there, but when the forehead hits the keyboard, it's time to stop.
I thought the holidays and all their bustle were over. I thought we could all relax a little and/or gird up for the annual assault on our liberty and pocketbooks at the Legislature. This past week was an early exception, however.
Part of this was self-inflicted. I was not going to watch American Idol this year until at least the round of 12 or so. But it was Minneapolis's turn and somehow there I was, watching it live even, the whole two hours.
But hey, it was our city, and people would be talking about it the next day, and they did. But there I was the next night, watching another two hours, mostly live (not DVR), from the Seattle auditions.
What's wrong with me? Am I that addicted to it? Or is that American Idol has more mass executions than the show "24"?
