QBmom, if they will let us get extra tickets, I'll try to get three. And would you do the same, if you manage to get there first? I'll PM you my email addy so we can correspond.

Well aren't you sweet. Thanks! :)

I'd like to see the parade, too, but we'll see how the weather is. We've been alternating between hot, muggy & miserable and cool & sunny, with horrendous storms in between. I'm hoping for cool and sunny!

Thanks for posting that article, it reminded me that I should send you my message for Cookie in case you have the opportunity to meet him. Hope it's not too lame, I tried very hard not to be a fangirl.

is it me? wtf, cook does the same thing every week????? but fricking archuletta knocked one out of the park the other night???? wtf....
btw this is from usmagazine.com

Check back here each week to find our Us Idol Rankings, where we'll handicap the current competition and offer candid commentary on who we think will get booted and who has the potential to win it all

1 ↑ ↓		David Archuleta Boy Wonder knocked it out of the park tonight! "Coming to America" was an even craftier choice than Kristy Lee Cook's "God Bless the U.S.A." - and there's not too much else to say about David other than "Say hello to your new Idol, America!" READ BIO
2 ↑ ↓		Brooke White Finally, an Idol who sang songs we knew! Blondie gets automatic bonus points for performing the breezy and fun "I'm a Believer" on guitar, but what really surprised Us was her ethereal "I Am, I Said" on piano. It endeared Brooke to Us like in her early Idol days, and tonight's performances were just what she needed to escape elimination. Job well done! READ BIO
3 ↑ ↓		David Cook We weren't too thrilled with DC's sub-par "I'm Alive," but all was forgiven after the first few notes of the rock lullaby "All I Really Need Is You." That version is radio-ready for sure, but a tad too reminiscent of season five fave Daughtry. There's no doubt we'll see a David-David finale, but would it kill Cookie to offer unique (read: non-Daughtry-esque) performances now and again? READ BIO
4 ↑ ↓		Jason Castro Oh, Jason. We really wanted you to do well this week. What happened?! Simon's critique was spot-on this time around: While "Forever in Blue Jeans" and "September Morn" were quintessentially Castro, they were just plain "forgettable." READ BIO
5 ↑ ↓		Seysha Mercado Randy said Syesha's "Hello Again" and "Thank the Lord for the Nighttime" were "in the zone," but you ask Us, it's more like the red zone! However, cribbing commentary from Paula: "At least she looked pretty!" READ BIO

WTF? @ Archuleta and Brooke being the Top 2. She gets points for singing "I'm A Believer?" What about all the points she loses for bastardizing it?

I see FUCKING IDIOTS type reviews like the above and find myself saying, "Self, you know, maybe living under a Socialist government that controls all written and spoken forms of media wouldn't be such a bad thing after all..."

Brooke's I'm a Believer was the worst freaking performance of the night, and that's saying something! And there's nothing similar for me between Cooking and Daughtry (who I can't stomach). Ugh, get off the loco weed, America (or get your head out and your ears cleaned, whichever applies).

I still need seven more messages for Cookie, to make the ten minimum needed to make it worth my while. Even just a "Hey Cookie, you rock!" is better than nothing.

I don't really speak Fantard, mazee--but if you get close to 10 messages let me know and I'm sure I can come up with something word nerdy, at least.

Aw, come one, you don't need to speak Fantard, dagny! VR doesn't either, but she got her point across!

Five Six down, five four to go! I'd just as soon have more than ten, if I can get them. If not, I wonder if it would be unethical to copy some of the best posts from this thread? :lbf

Even though I like Daughtry's CD <gasp!>, I don't consider Cookie to be like him. I'll probably buy Cookie's music when it comes out. Haven't bought any iTunes of Cookie's, only my boy Jason.

Simon says Cookie is a better singer than Archtard (which is true):
http://www.theinsideronline.com/news/2008/05/17888/index.html

He thinks it will come down to the D/D finale and he said:

"You're going to have a real scrap," he predicts. "The winner will really depend on what song they sing on the night."

That said, he also admits that "American Idol" is also a popularity contest and that, "David Cook has got the better voice and David Archuleta has got the teen and grandma appeal."

He also said in another recent interview that he wanted DC to win. You know what this means? If it does come down to a D/D finale we will probably get to see Simon pushing Cook for the win and trashing Archie a bit, which means Archtards will go insane because when it comes down to it Simon does have influence and shocking boots aside when it comes down it Simon has always gotten his way (well except for the whole Taylor Hicks thing).

Why do you think that Simon did not get his way in season 5?
