So -- American Idol decision tonight -- what do you think? Do you care? I'm rooting for Diana just because I'm tired of the same old same old "I can hit 50 notes in 2 seconds" singers. I want to not like Fantasia but I find myself grinning when I watch her on TV anyways, her bubbly personality is pretty contagious. I think they should change American Idol voting so that you vote to ELIMINATE a person every week, kinda like voting them off the island on Survivor. There's been some controversy about it being called "Ethnic Idol" and "African American Idol", and I must say that I do see it to some extent. I don't think necessarily it *should* always go to the same "I can hit 50 notes in 2 seconds" types. It should go to the one that has the most personality, the one that can be an "icon" of sorts, instead of the "choose a horse and bet heavily on him" mentality that the voting seems to be. Oh well. Just my $0.02.

Had a fantastic night at Voodoo Room last Saturday -- packed out house! We pulled more crowd than "2 Live Crew" did the following night (chuckle). I'll post pics on SMiRK Website sometime this week. These days I'm working from my own offices and just pulling down a ton of projects, having a great time with them all. It's nice to love your work. I'm still doing VB.NET, C#, and ASP.NET web applications, as well as several point of presence sites for local and worldwide clients. One of these years I'll get my Blue Haven Technologies site up and running...... *pant pant*. The ear is doing great!
