I think Courtney is even more annoying than her first time through. Not fond of Logan's falsetto. I like Eddie Island, personality and all. This year's winner is going to be another country singer, aren't they? Karly was more than a tad off key. Dang, Juan Pablo killed it. Shayy's voice is beautiful. The little girl singing the national anthem was horrible. Get on with the singing! The kid with cystic fibrosis was very good. Kimberley was wavery and off key. Bernie's voice was showy, but better. Alejandro's personality is annoying. And his voice did nothing for me. Good guitar player, though.

I saw a Tweet where somebody said that Don Cheadle was going to be Deadshot, and Cheadle replied, basically, "Really?"

Heroes was ruined by the writers' strike.

Can't somebody just find out what day Leo was born on and count back nine months?

You have to have filed with them the previous year. And create a PIN so that the next year, when you've given them all of your info like Social Security Number, they ask for the previous year's PIN so they can access your filing.

Australian actor Bren Foster.

Robin Strasser's mother just died. I don't know if Robin is still filming on the show or if hers was a limited run and she's gone by now.

I'd feel safer in the murder cabin.

I had to laugh that JJ was typing on his phone and the entire message popped up on screen while he was still typing. Is Haley carrying her possessions in a bowling ball bag? How does Rex know Seth Burns? He isn't working at Salem Hospital.

I was just going to come here to report that I think the Limu Emu ads are hilarious.

I wonder if that's why Johnny is coming back. Lucas, too, probably.

Kellen Winslow Jr. arrested for sexual battery on a 77 year old woman. This comes just a month before his trial begins on multiple counts of forcible rape and kidnapping https://deadspin.com/kellen-winslow-jr-arrested-after-allegedly-inappropria-1833069078?

Adding to books that are hard to read, Les Miserables. It's always amazed me that Jean Valjean, the protagonist, doesn't even make an appearance till about 200 pages in.

The new Jamie Progressive ad made me laugh.

Stanton Optical ads are so obnxious and annoying, but what's even worse is they run them about 20 times a day.

She did what she could. She didn't have the money to pay the up front costs. What was she supposed to do? There have been bark beetles killing the trees in the mountains in Southern California. The county has told cabin owners in the local mountains that they're going to have to pay thousands of dollars per tree to take the trees down. People are just abandoning their land and telling the county to foreclose.

Good on Kayla for not cooperating with the cops. Why do we have to have a fire starter flashback in every Claire scene? Haley can't hide in Salem, "not after what people saw in the debate." Uh, what they SAW was Melinda and Jack talking about Haley, not a picture of Haley. Why would people who watched the debate know what she looks like? Isn't that a requirement for supercouples?

German and Austrian police did a raid at the Nordic World Championships last week and literally caught Austrian skier Max Hauke with a needle in his arm while blood doping. https://deadspin.com/olympic-skier-caught-with-a-needle-in-his-arm-during-bl-1833042102

I don't understand the tree case. They kept talking about how the property owner had a responsibility to maintain her tree. Her tree was being maintained, it was uprooted by a hurricane. I hope the lady sues her insurance company.

Kelly Clarkson was offered deals with Jive and Interscope records, but turned them down because she didn't want to sing the kinds of music they were offering her. She worked as an extra in Hollywood. She made a demo with Gerry Goffin.

This show has never been innocent. They've always had people who have had recording contracts. I hate sob stories. Just sing. Also not big on Nick's falsetto. Walker Burroughs was really good, I loved his innocence. Tyler the country guy was also really good, as were the Vietnamese girl and Tiffane. The black girl they spent a lot of time with who was a nervous wreck was just generic, as was the first country girl. I actually liked the guy who didn't know any Lionel music, as well as the screamo guy. Not Idol material, but still entertaining.

I read War & Peace, though there are a lot of spots (the ninety pages of agriculture philosophy, for example) that I skipped over.

Alex Wong's name is in the credits for Isn't it Romantic, though I admit to not seeing him, but there are large dance scenes in the movie.

That's Camila Cabello, the song in the ad, "Havana", is one of her hits.

I don't really remember.
