That's pretty spot-on analysis, Cry.Reuben, with one exception: I don't like Red Bull. Tastes like lighter fluid. I prefer my coffee with a splash of skim milk, no sugar. While you're up, get yourself one, too.

dabon8r, Cry.Reuben and FenderBender - your back and forth cracked me up. Brilliant! Thanks. On another note, so sad that Scottie missed by 30,000 votes (if that's true - do we believe everything that AI says?). If true - I could have voted a few more times for Scott but fell asleep after that snoozefest. Alas. The suggestion of "vote for Gokey to saddle AI with another Taylor Hicks" has merit, but personally, I'd rather vomit than vote for Dead Wife. Scottie showed a lot of class in his exit interviews. He was much more together and with it than AI portrayed in the clips they choose to show of him on TV. Did you know he graduated college at age 19?!

I know. Paula and Kara acted all googly over him like, "darn we really want to save you because you are so awesome." But it seemed soooo fake. They danced all fake to his singing. It was all very patronizing.
