Did you ever hear Shirley Bassey do that song? It's one of my favorites, so I wasn't that impressed. Believe it or not, she did not hit the last note.

Melinda is the best! The best don't usually win if they are as nice as Melinda, she's the epitomy of virtue! She alsos is the epitomy of humility!
Melinda sm
Melinda hands down is best, however, people judge by youth, looks, etc., I heard on this board that she has "no neck." How very sad, she's the best, humble, talented and more. Life is not fair, I am upset. It's the same in every profession, sometimes the "best" pushed aside. Pray she does well, she deserves it!
Lakisha and Melinda are definitely the best.
I would have a hard time choosing between them if they made it in the final 2. The guys haven't really impressed me much, but Chris Sligh is kind of fun to watch.
I like Melinda and Lakisha too but...
Does anyone else have a problem with Melinda's lack of a neck? I just can't stop looking for it.
I agree with you about Melinda.
I mean, she can sing well, but the aw shucks act has got to go. You know who else bugs me? Phil Stacey...He is just creepy to look at too. My faves are Lakisha, Blake, Chris Richardson, and sometimes Jordan (not last night, she shouted the song). Anyone but Sanjaya. Come on, last night EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE, was better than him. He HAS to go.
NO! And, like he is better than Melinda? lol What a joke.
Poor Melinda, I seriously think she was in shock, like the rest of us.
Melinda and Lakisha rocked!
I love Lakisha's song choice, though. One of my favorites. Jordan is excellent but a little young...she will only get better. I was expecting more of out Stephanie, and Blake and Chris Richardson were the best men...but that ain't saying much..LOL
Melinda, my are absolutely my IDOL
Her songs are beyond belief. Here is wishing her the very best. What a great show tonight!!
she cried at end for Melinda Doolittle
 just an overly emotional prepubescent 10 y/o girl is all that little girl was being - herself actually
I always think of Barbara S when Melinda performs. (sm)
Although I don't enjoy Barbara S because her ego is so unattractive, but still I can see her talent. It is nice to hear a singer that you are confident is going to hit every note every time and never let you down. That's what I think they both have, and Melinda may be just trying to avoid anybody seeing her with a big ego so that she doesn't lose fans for it. In other words, I do think the humility thing is an act, but she's trying to avoid the other extreme.
Jordin, Melinda, and Lakesha, and
it's all about song choice from here on in.
I like Melinda, Blake, and Jordan
the others are fine too. At this point all their styles are different. Some copy, some original, some so talented that they will do well whether they win or not. Melinda mellows me, Blake makes me want to dance, Jordan makes me smile.
I totally agree. Melinda is my favorite!

she cried equally at end for Melinda Doolittle
I remember crying over the Beatles when I was 14.....LOL
I agree, I'm not really even watching...but what did Simon say to Melinda?
Just curious about that.
I agree with I think Melinda & Jordin will be the final 2 but...sm
would love to see Blake go next. I'm tired of hearing these guys who don't sing better than you can find at karaoke keep singing week after week. It's about time Phil & Chris went home!
Limbo. Great song, great game. Also,
The girls all line up and walk through a room as if they are modeling on the catwalk. Get a couple of bright colored boa's from the party store. It's a real riot and the kids have a blast especially if a couple of brave boys grab a boa and do it too. We've had many a birthday party doing this and it was totally hilarious.
Wow!! What a great attitude! I love that - great perspective!

What great determination and help from a great friend! :) nm

I am sure that you are a great mother and a great cook,
and that you tried everything, now try the 'hunger diet'.
Great one! Thanks!! nm
nm
That's great!!
A great big congrats to your daughter! She is so fortunate to have such a supportive and helpful family!!
Did he say anything at all about how great a new job for you would be? I'd keep an eye on him as
s
Wow, that's great!
We had always said 3 and that's when we stopped. They are all teenagers now. Wouldn't change a thing either.
That was great.
I'm glad they did that. What fun. Not only was he thin, but his clothes were nice. No jump suit. I preferred his hair when it was his natural brown rather than the black dye job.
That's great - sm
I'm glad I don't need them anymore then! Also check with your state regarding laws about those things. For example, in Florida you are only allowed to borrow 500, in which case I would be weary of anyone offering more. Thanks for the tip - looks like you should be advising me!
Great, thanks!
I listen and take all ideas I can.
My mom did it and it looks great.
She did not fill in the cracks, and it looks great simply painted.
DS, he does a great job.

For her age, I don't think she looks great at all
isn't she around 20? She looks more like 30 and haggard half the time. Oh, and you too can have that body with the cocaine/alcohol-only diet! Get real!
She is such a piece of garbage. But they say her mother is too (was desperate for fame so pushed her daughter into the spotlight) and her dad as well (didn't he just get released from prison)?
Sad.
That's great! Another one sm
I haven't seen Chuck and Larry yet, but will definitely ignore the reviews and see it. I love good comedies.
Another one, if you haven't seen it, is the Wedding Crashers. I thought it was just supposed to be a silly romantic comedy, but my daughter and watched it on cable last weekend and I cannot remember the last time I laughed out loud, spewing drink laughing, in some time. See that movie.
I think it would be a great job (sm)
True they don't pay real high but you are at your kids school, no child care costs, good benefits, and summers off - sounds pretty good to me!!! They are hard to get where I live also though. Best wishes to you!
That was great. Thanks. (nm)

Great Job
There should be more people like you!
They have been a great help to me
in dealing with a similiar situation with a family member. Sometimes you hear things that you don't want to hear but the people in these groups have been in your shoes and they understand what you're going through like no one else.
I got to do this. It was great.
I contacted her because I was going to the 20-year reunion. I couldn't talk her into going, but I did get her to meet me for another trip back home.
There was plenty to talk about. It was great.
Have a great
weekend everybody
Thanks. Those were great! nm

They are not that great...SM
They are great for a while, but then if the DVD player breaks, you are stuck with a TV with a broken DVD player and end up having the buy a whole new DVD player. If the TV breaks, you are stuck with a DVD player that you can't use because the TV part is broken. I would not recommend getting a TV/DVD player combo. I know many people who had had these problems with them. I would buy each component separate so that if one thing breaks, you only have to replace that.
That was great! Thanks. nm
!
Great tip! Thanks!
Thank you for that website. I'm going to check them out. Thanks to everyone for all of your informative posts on this subject. You have all be very, very helpful. I appreciate you!!
That's a great one!...sm
Rhinoceros where stomping out fires (the fire brigade)...We wore the tape out watching it so many times...I suppose it's on DVD by now. Thanks for reminding me of that one!  Cat
This is great!
This is the greatest thing I have seen in a long time. I just cannot stop laughing.  I know I will remember this one for as long as I live! Thank you so much for this holiday memory. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL. (I did not mean to yell, just consider it a loud voice LOL.)
The Others is GREAT!
I saw Rosemary's Baby but not the other ones. Thanks for the suggestions. I am going to get the Mothman Prophecies and THEM! on sale on the DVD club too. One really good and the other a classic. I love sci fi too and got my kids all into star trek. The Borg are the scariest but they love it and so do I. LOL.
LOL. That was great! Thanks, V8. nm

That's great. You should both be
xx
Hi, Kim, that would be great!
Yes, the Casino is one in the same. I've actually never been there if you can believe that. My in-laws go there a lot to gamble. I wish I was in Georgia. I hate snow! My parents live in Utica. Small world.
He is a great looking dog. I really
wished we could hear him talking there when he won.
You are a great mom!!
I understand what you are saying and do agree. I became upset when I read statements such as "weird, sick, "it" - because you know as well as I, people still feel that way about gays. I get so angry that people can be so heartless and cruel when it comes to lifestyles that they feel are not of the norm. You are a great mom and your son is very lucky!! For those who know that someone is gay and have not been told yet - my feeling is they will say something when they are comfortable with it themself. Unfortunately, people are quick to judge how others should live and love - never considering that it does not matter as they are the same person no matter who they love. To come out is a very frightening thing as there are those people you think would be okay with it and they go absolutely bonkers. I commend those of you who are so accepting and nonjudgemental. It still amazes me that this is 2008 and people still act as though gays should be "put away". 
great thanks!
that's what i use so i think i'll give it a try when i can get a line out. thanks!
I have one of those! That would be great! SM
I have a lot of great suggestions from everyone! Thanks to all of you for your help. It can be a real problem and you have all really helped! I bought a spaghetti lifter some years ago.
