Well, since we know Sanjaya is stinky, and we know Vote For the Worst generates a ton of votes but not all of them and we know that AI can and most likey does manipulate the voting by the number of phone lines open for each contestant or other sneaky means, there has to be some reason that AI wants ...

And I think his comment of 'I know I'm not the best singer here', besides being so painfully obvious, was carefully calculated to get the pity-vote out.

Not to mention the fact that there is a margaritaville on Grand Turk :lol: :lol: I was there last week. I honestly think the place only does business when the ships pull in. Only head there if you like the drunk college scene, because thats all it is. I walked in for five minutes then left and went...

I thought the crying pre-teen during Sanjaya's song was classic. How funny. Boy, he was horrible.

But I thought Hailey looked great.

Any seat will be great as long as you are there and having fun. But they do sound like good seats!

I'll be there the first weekend, but up in the 300 level (friends squawked at the prices, reasonable compromise, I guess)

I am over on Cayuga Lake- not far from you! :D

I do like Vote for the Worst, there are some clever blogs & commentaries on there. And even when the singing is terrible, I still can't tear myself away, I love the whole package of a train-wreck that is American Idol. Trying to figure out if Paula is drunk. HOw many times is Randy gonna overuse...

Serious question here........what IS Sanjaya's appeal? Why does he have people voting for him at all? You can't tell me ALL the votes he gets are from this "vote for the worst" movement. Is it really the hair? The sugary sweetness? It has to be something other than the performing/singing....

I ended up agreeing w/ all the judges. at first, I thought Blake did better than they said, but then on the end replay I realized they were right, he wasn't that great. I kind of like the whole beat-box thing though. In general, that is pretty cool as a talent. All of the guys seem at risk for being...

Can you put a contingency clause on your offer??

As in 'this offer is contingent on our selling or getting a bid on our current house within X days' or however it might be worded??
