It was really nice for American Idol to help the unfortunate. It was a very touching week and a tear jerker. Anyways, I hope America gets it right next week.....<br /><br />My top 6 from top to bottom:<br /><br />1. Melinda<br />2. Jordin<br />3. Phil<br />4. Lakisha<br />5. Chris<br />6.

I had to be really organized for this one. I wanted to do more of these but the site I used for it doesnt have any good ones left. Oh well, I guess I may have to look for some more out there.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-7003759592699138"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; google_ad_format = "468x15_0ads_al"; google_ad_channel = ""; google_color_border = "66B5FF"; google_color_bg = "CAF99B"; google_color_link = "800040"; google_color_text = "000000"; google_color_url = "2BA94F"; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6547046495466438367-8815280287717407221?l=talk-and-stuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>brian castanedahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11641773749030952905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547046495466438367.post-27320918559710771032007-04-18T19:01:00.000-07:002007-04-18T19:29:32.546-07:00Sanjaya is finally going home. I thought he would stay for another week or two but I guess this is the end of the road. It's kinda sad because you won't see his next hair style the week after or maybe the hairstylist ran out of ideas. I bet American Idol is gonna be different without him..... <br />Anyways my picks for next week(from top to bottom):<br /><br />1) Melinda - still my front-runner. she needs to stop looking so suprised when the judges comment her because she is that good and we all know it.<br />2) Jordin - watch out, she is slowly creeping every week because she's getting better.<br />3) Lakisha - she's slipping and may loose her chance of winning it.<br />4) Blake - he keeps on picking the good songs for him but he doesn't have the vocals to win it.<br />5) Chris - he is slipping too. he needs to come up with something good next week.<br />6) Phil - although he sang good this week, i still think he yells sometimes when he sings.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-7003759592699138"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; google_ad_format = "468x15_0ads_al"; google_ad_channel = ""; google_color_border = "66B5FF"; google_color_bg = "CAF99B"; google_color_link = "800040"; google_color_text = "000000"; google_color_url = "2BA94F"; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6547046495466438367-2732091855971077103?l=talk-and-stuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>brian castanedahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11641773749030952905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547046495466438367.post-90346352769461061922007-04-12T06:28:00.001-07:002007-04-12T06:37:16.746-07:00This time, America got it right. I had Haley or Phil going home. Surprisingly, Sanjaya sang really good. Even the judges were surprised and I think it was the best performance of the night. This is what my ranking is for next week:(top to bottom)<br /><br />1. Melinda<br />2. Jordin<br />3. Lakisha<br />4. Chris<br />5. Blake<br />6. Sanjaya<br />7. Phil<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-7003759592699138"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; google_ad_format = "468x15_0ads_al"; google_ad_channel = ""; google_color_border = "66B5FF"; google_color_bg = "CAF99B"; google_color_link = "800040"; google_color_text = "000000"; google_color_url = "2BA94F"; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6547046495466438367-9034635276946106192?l=talk-and-stuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>brian castanedahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11641773749030952905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547046495466438367.post-85039479259586683972007-04-04T21:39:00.000-07:002007-04-04T21:50:08.044-07:00Wow! Another perfect example how the voting system for american idol is not working anymore. Gina should've stayed and phil should've been the one gone(well, not counting Sanjaya ofcourse because no matter how bad he does, America is voting for him). <br /><br />The way I see it, here is how I rank the remaining contestants:(from top to bottom)<br /><br />1. Melinda<br />2. Jordin<br />3. Lakisha<br />4. Chris<br />5. Haley<br />6. Blake<br />7. Phil<br />8.

I did some research and actually tried some of them hoping that I can quit my regular day job but to no avail.....just a whole bunch of non-sense. Some companies offer you these so-called opportunities for a fee but when you actually do sign up, their sites would only have a few working links and the funny thing about it is that most of these links that they provide you.........you can sign up for free! without even going through these companies and paying anything at all. If you ever find one that works, it will even require you to do a lot more work for a very little profit.<br /><br />So is there any truth to this or just a bad experience wasting lots and lots of valuable time?<br />Stay tuned..................<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-7003759592699138"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; google_ad_format = "468x15_0ads_al"; google_ad_channel = ""; google_color_border = "66B5FF"; google_color_bg = "CAF99B"; google_color_link = "800040"; google_color_text = "000000"; google_color_url = "2BA94F"; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6547046495466438367-2586977542365810182?l=talk-and-stuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>brian castanedahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11641773749030952905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547046495466438367.post-73417520811901074852007-03-27T14:41:00.000-07:002007-03-27T15:20:28.920-07:00The game show deal or no deal where basically the contestants just simply pick cases that contains the amount of money should change the name greed or no greed because these contestants get so greedy that I've seen someone get offerred as much as 300,000 and refused it hoping to get the big one which is 1,000,000 but because of their greed that they end up with so little money and sometimes none at all.....i think its really funny....what do you think?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-7003759592699138"; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; google_ad_format = "468x15_0ads_al"; google_ad_channel = ""; google_color_border = "66B5FF"; google_color_bg = "CAF99B"; google_color_link = "800040"; google_color_text = "000000"; google_color_url = "2BA94F"; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6547046495466438367-7341752081190107485?l=talk-and-stuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>brian castanedahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11641773749030952905noreply@blogger.com0
