Since I started this thread, let me be the first to say that Josh sang the best he's ever sang tonight ON HIS SECOND SONG. I did not care that much for the first one but the second one was superb.
I also agree with Simon on Clay's second song...although I'm glad Clay has finally peaked out of the closet, It wasn't that great. Regardless his first song was fantastic.
Kimberley rocked in her bluesy second song Emotion...I thought her originality was wonderful...
For me, all 4 did great...but Clay was the least interesting for me.

Oh my god, I feel like I'm at a Kingdom Hall! Wishing someone gets voted off the American Idol is wishing something bad on someone when the host says every week MILLIONS OF AMERICANS cast their vote. Please! That's what the show is about!
I told Maurice the response to my thread and he said, "Don't you already have a mother?"
And if someone wants to compare me to Simon, that's a compliment. I don't apologize for being who I am and speaking honestly. I did a couple of decades doing time in silence.
So back to the point of my thread, I was at a restaurant yesterday and I said the same thing to the waitress after she said she was a fan of American Idol. She said, "yeah, I know but he's so cute."
Everyone's a critic and everyone has their own opinion.

I'm shooting a short film in Vegas...
by morrisamb inmaurice and i had booked our trip to vegas with a third friend richard for may 26-30 a month ago.
richard has a $2000 digital video camera so we had planned on filming our trip anyway...but then because the production company will be filming the short film on my book, june 14 and 15, (here in london, on) the director sent me some london shorts film info...i thought why not make another short film based on my trip...because the unusual thing about my trip is that i won't be gambling...when i've told people they think that is very unusual..so i've taken that premise expanded on it and come up with a short film idea.
the point being if any of you live or will be in vegas from the 26-30 and would like to be part of my funny short film as an extra, i'll be staying at the imperial palace, across from caesar's palace.

A non-review of Father's Touch...
by morrisamb inhi gang, i know many of you haven't read my autobiography, but i received this from a female reviewer in the us today...i'm a tough cookie, so don't worry, my feelings were not hurt in the slightest...i just don't get it...i could understand better if she said, "your book isn't well written," or some other critique of the writing, but why would she say of a true story memoir, "doesn't fit up to my standards of good fiction.".
i was just saying to a good friend yesterday, there are benefits to having to survive "something"...survivors have been through the mill already.
there comes a point where what someone else thinks is not more important than what i think myself.. i wrote this reviewer back a short note:dear ___________ thank you for email and comments.

Hi gang, I know many of you haven't read my autobiography, but I received this from a female reviewer in the US today...I'm a tough cookie, so don't worry, my feelings were not hurt in the slightest...I just don't get it...I could understand better if she said, "your book isn't well written," or some other critique of the writing, but why would she say of a true story memoir, "doesn't fit up to my standards of good fiction."
I was just saying to a good friend yesterday, there are benefits to having to survive "something"...survivors have been through the mill already. There comes a point where what someone else thinks is not MORE important than what I think myself.
I wrote this reviewer back a short note: Dear ___________ Thank you for email and comments. I appreciate your honesty. Thanks also for sending my autobiography to ___________. Sincerely, Donald D'Haene
Dear Donald:
Father's Touch has finally reached the top of my to-be-reviewed pile. During the first 100 pages, I thought that this was one of the best written, self-publish books that had landed on my desk in a number of years. However, after reaching page 200, I just could not bring myself to read anymore. See below for more information.
I find that I cannot give your book a favorable review. I don't write/publish bad reviews because all critics do not think alike and there may be others out there who would enjoy your book. While I do feel it is my obligation to warn readers before they invest their hard-earned dollars, at the same time, it is more prudent of me to limit my bad reviews (especially the companies who are making lots of dollars on a poorly written book and a best-selling name).
The book isn't bad; it just doesn't fit up to my standards of good fiction. I am declining to review your book based on the following reason:
*While I could empathize with you, I did not feel any sympathy toward your plight.
*I didn't feel that the book had a plot other than the abuse and it's affects.
* I didn't understand where the other passages (i.e. where those by Daniel D'Haene were derived).
*Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't get into vignette after vignette of the abuse.
I'm sorry the results weren't more favorable. Father's Touch has been donated ........._________send their regards and thanks for the book.
Sincerely,

You can ask for us at the front desk..ask for me, Donald D'Haene, but the room could be in either my name or Richard Martin's.
Look forward to meeting you all!
