"Idol Time On My Hands!" -Two Memorable Performances Last Night On American Idol

Now I've been an avid watch of American Idol for as long as the program has been on the air. Even if I don't follow the WHOLE season I at least get the brief updates on who's making a buzz on the show. Anyways I say all this to say that, after missing most of this year's episodes I was finally around last night long enough to catch a full show on air and not pre-recorded on Hulu or something like that. LOL! Anyhow I got say the video posted below are THEE BEST single performances I've ever seen in my history of viewing the show on one entire night! I was honestly moved! Not to tears but MOVED none the lesser. I'm not sure just WHO'S gonna take it this year outta these two (I'm leaning towards Jessica) only cause I'm not sure if Idol is ready for a GAY BLACK winning contestant...(I'm assuming of course) But if folks are casting on talent alone...good luck on that one! This will be a close one to call. Even though it's not as moving as it was LIVE (on air) I still posted their performances so you can understand why I'm even commenting on this.

"The Scoop on Raisin" -Raisin in the Sun airs tonight on ABC

And first glance I swore this was a new
Sean John ad.
Or maybe Unforgivable, or Ciroc, or the return of Bad Boy (yeah right), perhaps Making of the Band 12 or whatever million things this guy is up to. But it was nether
of those things, It's actually a promo shot for the airing of tonight's
ABC premier movie "Raisin in the Sun" , in which Sean "Diddy" Combs starred in during it's run on Broadway some time ago. For those (myself included) that's unfamiliar with the story's synopsis here it goes:
Set in 1950s Chicago, the drama centers on the Younger family, who anxiously await a $10,000 insurance check and the ensuing squabbles over how to spend it. Combs plays Walter Lee, a role made famous by Sidney Poitier. Looking to assert his manhood and to use the money to finance his dreams of owning a business, Walter Lee finds himself at odds with his widowed mother, Lena, his ambitious sister, Beneatha and long-suffering wife.

Sounds like another day up at the Bad Boy office (lol.)
8PM (ABC) be sure to watch, in between your weekly "Idol" fix,
as Diddy adds another title to his name...Actor.

"Breakfast of Champions" - A Super Bowl Preview

Look, in all honesty, I'm by no means a sport fan by an standard. I'll watch a game or two once the final teams have reached the playoffs. But once you start conversing with me about player's names, and jersey numbers, team stats and what not,
I'm about as lost as an Englishman in Africa...
with half a Chinese map.
So when folks talk of Super Bowl what you see pictured to the left is the first thing that comes to my mind off the bat. Saturday morning,
a LARGE Tupperware bowl, my cereal of choice and icy cold milk. Not Sunday evening, small plastic trays, and a choice of pretzel, Doritos and dip, and celery sticks.But this year I've decided to get on board and be a team player and really follow Sunday's Big Game. Based on past research, here's some hit-or-miss predictions on how I think the game will go.

First off, it'll begin with some former
American Idol or forgotten Pop diva singing the Anthem.

Then after dominating the 1st quarter and a half (insert your favorite team's name) will kick a field goal to maintain the lead by (insert #) before heading back to the locker room for halftime. Which by the way will feature a performance by some Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted group that only older coaches and team owners listen to. Half a suck ass show and a barrage of somewhat witty commercials about beer and big budget movie ads, both teams will return to the field pumped. By 4th quarter (insert team name) will have shortened the lead by a few points if not tied it. Some (insert team name) will fumble or be intercepted in the Red zone giving (insert team name) the winning edge with no timeouts,
(insert team name) WINS! Go (insert team name)!
Another Disney World commercial.
That's pretty much it right?
Well, see you at some local Super Bowl house party.
Hope (insert favorite team) wins you the office pot. Cut me in.
