American Idol: views and reviews from the middle-aged home front. Thursday, February 24, 2011. From L.A. “Sing for Your Life” to the Sci-Fi Walkway Continues. Last night we saw Jennifer’s meltdown over Chris Medina being ousted, then a placard with the ominous To Be Continued. Not even a dot dot dot. Just plain white ink over black background, like a very boring PowerPoint slide. Tonight is Part 2 of the infamous “Green Mile” part of the competition. Why do they call it that you wonder? We never saw very...

American Idol: views and reviews from the middle-aged home front. Tuesday, May 24, 2011. The Boy Next Door and The Southern Belle.

I know my kingdom awaits, and they’ve forgiven my mistakes. I’m coming home…”. 8221; I have to admit that I am misty-eyed after watching this montage. Actually this theme was used back in the Carrie Underwood season....

Is coming to you from Nashville. For no particular reason, they start out with a clip from RuPaul’s Drag Race. Disguised as a try-out.

Random Conversations with My Kid. Just recapping those wacky things that my teenager says. Friday, November 20, 2009. Random Conversation with My Kid about Political Correctness.
