Curses!<br /><br />Because of that unfortunate decision, I only saw the first four performances. Also, because of that unfortunate decision, I'm in eighteen kinds of pain this morning. I'm not exactly Mr. Fitness McHealthy, and street hockey not only requires a lot of energy, but you also get injured a lot. I think I slammed into the chainlink fence about seven times. Also, in a rather unpleasant turn of events, I got a splinter in my backside. Just so you know.<br /><br />Either way, Syesha's going home. She's been in the bottom three/two forever, and I don't see that changing tonight. Personally, I think she's great, and I'd love to see her beat Davey Archuleta, but she won't. (Jason left last week, and we have to figure out where his fans will go. Jason's target demographic was thirteen-year-old girls who voted solely based on the dreaminess of the contestant. They will switch their allegiance to either Davey or David.)<br /><br />Speaking of Davey, one part of the show that I did see was him on stage with the mayor of Murray. And, if there was ever anyone you don't want as a spokesman for Utah, it was that guy. He wore one of those goofy cowboy dress shirts with an American flag motif, and he had the world's largest handlebar mustache. No, America! We're not hicks!<br /><br />And I imagine Cook is a lock to win it all.RobisonWellshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08310316083080976885noreply@blogger.com
