True in theory. Only I didn't make comments about how he looked after he had a shithead godawful performance. That's the difference. My being turned on also had to do with the performance itself, not just legs walking around a stage while simultaneously shrieking wildly off pitch.

So half a point for you -- I did factor looks into my being turned on. But luckily, at least I had something else to fall back on...ya know, like the singing

So my comments were in addition to a great performance, not an excuse for a dreadful performance. Nuance, B, all nuance.

I know you're just messing around -- but just wanted to nip that one in the bud before anyone (read: Somer ) started giving me a hard time.

Jordin is cute and has been my favorite since her audition, but my goodness she was just awful tonight.

My personal favorite tonight was Blake, I thought it was terrific. The guy is talented. Great job.

Have to also hand it to Melinda and Lakisha especially. Lakisha hit a homer with that one.

Jordin had a very off night, not her style and it wasn't good. still its hard not to like her.

Phil, I have never really cared for. Chris's performance didn't stand out for me, it seemed just routine.

This is the Cliffs Notes version of my assessment Could not agree more -- though had a hard time separating the top three tonight really, loved each of them for very different reasons.

I've been watching. I don't see how anyone can beat Melinda. I think the 3 gals, Melinda, LaKisha, Jordan, are far better than any of the guys. I can't believe Jordan is only 17! I suppose I like Blake best of the guys & Phil least.

I tried to donate during last week's show but couldn't get through on line or by phone, even in the morning. The problem in Africa is stifling.I will still donate, probably directly to the one of the organizations. Did anybody else have that problem?

Yeah, took forever! They announced over $70 million so far...say what you will about the show, that's some serious money for such an important cause!

I thought it was mixed last night......I have said from the top 12 show that I thought Jordin and Blake were going to be in the final and I still think that, but I gotta tell ya, I didn't care for what Blake did last night at all...now the misses loved it, so I guess Simon is right again....half will love it, half will hate it.....no doubt the guy has talent, but I thought that was a mess.

Now for the rest....As much as I hate to say it, I think Phil was hands down the best. Melinda and Lakesha were just okay....Chris would have been okay too, but where the hell is the fashion coordinator. How the hell are you gonna get up and sing Dead or Alive in tennis shoes, a lime green t-shirt, white belt, and members only jacket??? WTF! So for that, he needs to go....I thought Jordin was by far the worst of the evening.....Who do I think is going home......Chris and Lakesha....
