"American Idol": Chicken Little's sky has fallen
Well! I felt absolutely awesome about the booting of wee Kevin Covais tonight, not because he wasn't a
nice-ish kid, or because he didn't do OK during The Night Of The Manilow, but because he was simply the
weakest singer.
And it was time for him to go.
In the end, he wasn't saved by some weirdly placed need to protect him from the big bad mean judges or the people who insist that those people in a singing contest actually be the best singers.
He didn't get the votes, my friends, because other singers deserved them more. Yippee! The process works! So American! I feel like I'm on an episode of "Schoolhouse Rock" - "Contestant Junction, what's your function? Gonna boot you off, if you're really awful...."

Sadly, I could not watch the Idol this week, as I was at an small gathering, trying to marry off one of my five daughters.
That's all I am, Leslie. Merely a humble mother and wife.
Certainly not a Slick Chick on the Mellow Side.
Like Mandisa.

Note the below post where it's spelled right, like, 100 times.
You make me smile, however.
