Well now I'm on the edge of my seat....what did he do?!?

Sorry, I've been off and it took so long to answer this. Back to the televangelist.....:eek:

Okay, keep in mind I grew up in a small town where everyone knows everyone else and we're all very protective of one another. Big Man on Campus/BMOC dated Cute Cheerleader/CC all through high school, and they told everyone they were getting married after high school.....for YEARS. One of THOSE couples. He was an arrogant thing, but she was really sweet. Their senior year, he got an athletic scholarship to a university just about the time she got pregnant.

There was zero doubt it was his, but he denied it and dumped her cold. Seems the university coach made it clear that a new wife was not part of him getting a scholarship. She felt humiliated in front of our whole town, not to mention being heartbroken, but the town stood behind her. Bear in mind, this was back when being pregnant and unmarried made you an outcast and basically ruined your life. At some point that summer, some of his classmates beat the compound hell out of him for treating her so crappy. Yes....it took quite a few because he was a big old boy. No charges we filed. :rolleyes1

After graduation, as CC got further along in the pregnancy and his fall semester at college started, BMOC would bring home gorgeous girls from his university and aways make sure he sat right in front of her at church. Everyone's eyes bugged out at how cruel that was. She held her head high, but I don't know how she did it without breaking down. When the kid was born, it looked just like him. ;)

He never paid a cent in child support, even when he was making a ton of money as a pro athlete. He did other mean stuff to her, but you get the idea. Not too long after that, a really nice guy in town married her and I think they are still married to this day. He raised the child as his own. I really have no idea if that kid (now an adult) as any idea as to who his bio father is.

So the whole town holds him in contempt for dumping her, treating her like a skank who slept around and had no idea as to who fathered the child, and abandoning the baby without ever taking responsibility....Not to mention rubbing her nose in it by flaunting all those girls in front of her at church.

A preacher, my hiney. The latest is that he beats the devil out of his wife, but makes sure to leave no bruises that will show on TV. He's a keeper, isn't he? So you can see why I cringe when I see him on TV. So much sleeze, fooling so many people. I shudder to think what he's doing "ministering" at those women's prisons. :scared:
 
Emom:

Thats quite a story.:eek: I thought I could tell stories about "ministers" that could curl hair, but yours is much better.

Glad to hear shes doing well now.
 

No set genre or time period? That so broad...

Who wants to bet someone is going to try Somewhere over the Rainbow-- a la Kat McFee! Dare I say it, that sounds like something Anoop would sing--

:eek: I really hope not! That song is WAY over done. But you're right, I could see Anoop doing something like that. I could also see Lil doing "My Heart Will Go On" or "I Will Always Love You"...:scared:
 
I agree. That one note Scott hit both on Tuesday and last night was :scared: He's such a nice guy and was fun to watch and root for, but he just wasn't that good and was lucky he made it as far as he did. At least he made the tour!

I don't necessarily think it was the guitar that was the reason Scott got sent packing. He was due to go the past week or two anyways. I think even if he had performed at the piano, his time was up.

I wish him well.

I totally agree. Scott's vocals were way off on Tuesday and haven't been on par with the other contestants. I think that vocally, it was his proper time to go.


I agree with all of you. I loved Scott's personality, I'm thrilled he made the tour, but I think it was his time to go. You just can't compare him to Adam or Alison or Danny vocally. But his attitude and sense of humor were one of the best I've ever seen on this show.
 
I think after 8 seasons the word would have gotten out and there's no way that Taylor Hicks would have won if they were fixin' votes. I totally agree that there is a ton of manipulation going on but I don't think they actually fix the results.

On Clay's "E True Hollywood Story" it was revealed that Clay had more than double the amount of votes as Ruben week after week, including the finale week. After the finale there were tons of Clay's votes that weren't counted yet so... the producers can do whatever they want, unfortuntaley :rolleyes: I've refused to vote since that season! Why waste my time when I doubt my vote counts anyway?

Kings of Leon rock!!

LOOOOVEEEE Kings of Leon! They're doing a Today Show concert in the beginning of August and I was psyched for my dad to get me in, until I realized we'd be in Florida that week. I don't know whether to :woohoo: or about that, haha!
 
:eek: I really hope not! That song is WAY over done. But you're right, I could see Anoop doing something like that. I could also see Lil doing "My Heart Will Go On" or "I Will Always Love You"...:scared:

And you are so right about Lil.... ;)
 
:thumbsup2

Starting last year the amount of posts on the AI boards did not equal the votes, and it only reflected Syesha and Lil. Everyone else sort of fell into place. Previous years the highest post getter got the highest votes, they followed each other.

Right now on the AI Boards Adam has 70,000 posts, Lil has about 1400. She has less than Michael Sarver and Jorge!! Maybe her fans don't have anything to say about her? I dunno. Sounds fishy to me.:confused3

I agree Robinrs. My disclaimer first: I was a huge Jason Castro fan last year. I still refuse to believe that Syesha got more votes than Jason. It absolutely made no sense that Syesha got many votes at all last year. Her fan support was almost invisible. Very few posts on the AI (or any) message boards, very few visitors to her myspace page, embarassingly low turnout for her hometown visit. In contrast, Jason's hometown visit after being voted out was huge. Jason's fan base was so much bigger and, on the night that he was voted out, I got more busy signals by far than I did on any other night. I know because I voted for him all season like it was my job. I know that none of this is actual proof but it is enough for me to take up residence on a grassy knoll somewhere.

I was so mad at what looked like obvious vote tampering (or vote ignoring) that I swore that I would never be gullible enought to vote again. Then along came this season and Adam Lambert. I'm voting again even though I think that our votes don't really matter and I can't explain why.
 
And you are so right about Lil.... ;)

After that pathetic Tina Turner imitation, I pray Lil does not sing a Whitney Houston song. Because after it's all over, if the judges dare criticize her, I just know she'll let loose with an "Oh hell to the no!" :lmao::rotfl::rotfl2: And I cringe at the thought of Lil imitating Whitney's really bad dance moves. :rolleyes1

aMEN!
 
There must have been a connection for why I posted about Jason Castro earlier. I just read that Jason has been signed by Atlantic Records. I am beyond excited and can't wait to hear his first album.
 
I usually don't ask this but please pray for Murfreesboro, we got hit with at least three tornadoes so far. One of them was an exit down from my apartment. It's really bad.
 
Thank you, I'm home at my parents so I'm hiding out in the bathroom with my laptop. It's just very scary because two of them are very close to me and if I had left any later from campus I might of been involved.

I can't imagine how terrifying that must be. Keep on the internet as long as you have service. It makes the time go by so much more quickly. I hope your parents are in there with you too and that you are all safe and sound.

omG, my niece and my grandnieces live in Murfreesboro!! Hang in there Mandy and I'm calling to check on them now!!

You are incredibly brave. I'm terrified sitting here reading about you're going through. My prayers and positive thoughts are with you and please let us know if you're all OK.

We're fine here. The storm passed over my parents without anything. My parents live a hour from Murfreesboro. I don't know about my apt though, I just know right now I can't get back into Murfreesboro and I haven't heard from some of my friends.
