I agree, Marilyn. I think Jasmine is mediocre, at best. It was a travesty that she stayed and LaToya went. But, then, that kind of thing's been happening all along. Look at the Johns... OMG. Since the very beginning, I thought LaToya and Fantasia should be the last two standing. They really need to change the way the whole show works. I've heard some people talking about having you vote for the person you want to leave. That would certainly change the dynamics and make it harder for people to keep talentless people in the competition just because they're "cute" or "nice" or for some other lame reason! I do have to say, though, that once it came down to LaToya and Fantasia last night, I was glad to see Fantasia survive. I really like her. Her voice is unique, and she can sing the hell out of those slow songs.

American Idol down to 3
by Mulan ini can't believe la toya got voted off.
jasmine seems to be a very sweet girl, but to keep her and vote off la toya is nuts.. i am hoping with it getting down to just 3, that there aren't enough voters in hawaii to keep her in the competition.
if she wins the whole thing, one of the other girls will have been robbed.. i think simon should rethink his scathing, hurtful comments.

I don't think you were drunk quite yet, Mike. But later--yes, for sure!

I'm lucky enough to be married to the one on the far right.

There are so many beautiful pictures of Colorado that I hate to waste the bandwidth by posting them. If you're interested, here are some web sites with great pictures. We live just outside Rocky Mountain National Park. I've also lived in Portland between Mt. Hood and the beautiful Cascade Range and in Geneva on the valley floor between the Swiss Alps and the Jura. But I have to say our Colorado Rocky Mountains are pretty spectacular, too. I'm a third-generation Coloradoan, so I'm a bit prejudiced.

Michael Jackson's Mom/Firpo Carr/William's Sister
by ExpandedMind inhow can "active" jws such as mj's mom, firpo carr and the william's sister who attended mjs support party, openly support him (because he is an exjw) without getting reproved or disfellowshipped by the organization?
i know that we don't see what goes on behind the scenes, perhaps the do get a "talking to" by the elders, but it seems lately that certain active jws are more bold about associating openly with exjws.. has anyone ever read anything about mjs mom's justification of her on-going relationship with mj?
i realize that situations like this (jws associating with exjws) go on all the time in the organization; it is nothing new.

Hi Mike!!! I'm fine, thanks. But I'd give almost anything to be back in Weston-super-Mare having a pint with you and Nige. :-)

I love The Young Ones. Haven't seen it for quite a few years, though. Alan's nuts about Fawlty Towers (we have the videos). And, of course, we have the entire collection of Monty Python's Flying Circus on DVD.
My sister just moved over to England, and she's fascinated by some show (don't know the name) where they go in and clean up people's filthy houses. Do you know which one I'm talking about, Eman?
