WDW Water: Still sweet and pure!!

[springsteenmickey]

Jas, Jas, Jas, Jas Jas .... The Gators ??? Tell you what, if my Orangemen of Syracuse don't win, BUT THEY WILL, then I will cheer on your Gators.

Actually I saw the Gators play at a NIT in Syracuse back in 1992.

GO ORANGE

WHAT??????
I think I have now seen Julia's name mentioned twice. I can't stand her. What a fake with fake ummmm top enhancements. God forbid she should make it that far. YUCK!!!!

Hey Boss, thanks for the support. I at least have a few more years of this since they are all youngins' (hoping that they don't all jump ship and go to the NBA ).

 

[jwill]

Ot, sure I could beat on the executive candy machine but every once in a while it's good to show a little finesse(using coat hanger). This ensures you don't get labeled as a goon.

Ok - here are the 3 simple rules for the American Idol game:

1) Official votes for your *eliminated-idol* made be made ANY time during the week - but a quick re-cap will be polled Wednesday during the day - so that there are no arguements later as to who voted for who...

2) PAY ATTENTION to their names!! There will be no "I think that blonde girl with the blue pants and white shirt that sucked really bad is going to be kicked out..." If you don't know their first name (and last initial in the event of a *Kimberly*) - your vote doesn't count!!!

3) In the event that you are on mission from our fearless leader in WDW gathering water while the show is going on - please forward your votes for that time period to a fellow WDWWDS member to put yours in for you...

As for Julia Jas - I didn't even notice those fake whatever they were...I just really liked the song she sang (Son of a Preacher Man is a personal fav.) but if she was fake - then she shouldn't be the idol...I mean what kinda role model would THAT be?!? The world does NOT need another Britney Spears...that's why I liked Kelly Clarkson so much - so *girl next door* like...

...and if I hear *Somewhere Over the Rainbow* one more time - I think I'm gonna scream (please oh please someone teach that girl a new song before tonights show...)

 

[Higgs22]

I would play this game...but I'm sorry to admit that while my wife seems to enjoy American Idol...I find it rather silly....(No offense meant to those who enjoy it...I just don't like those reality-type shows...)
So I vote for Me as the next American Idol!!

 

[madonna31]

Higgs - you can still play!

Here's an idea - at the end of tonight's show - just ask DW who she think's is going to be eliminated and cast her vote as yours...make sure you remember the name of the contestant though (see official rule #2 of the AI game)

pssst someone tell Higgs that he has to sing for us if he wants to be considered an American Idol! I think that I would actually pay to hear that...

 

[mrsapalm]

I'll try to keep up with the American Idol game. I watch the shows religiously - and thus readily admit that I have no life - but that's okay.
My current favorites are Kimberly Locke and Reuben. I don't like Kimberly Othergirl because she is from the Houston area and her local interviews reflect her to be a less-than-stellar personality and a total female doggie.
Of course, Daniel from Survivor is from Houston, and I knew before the show started that he would be voted off early in the game (which he was) due to his interviews with the local paper. He was a real *winner* with a craptastic personality.
Happy Tuesday Everyone!
Madonna - have you gotten your water fountain installed yet?

I like to pride myself on the fact that not only do I not watch (use air quotes here) "reality" shows, but avoid them like the plague. Not that I hold viewership against anyone here - I like AP and Madonna too much to do that - I'm just stating my stance on the subject.

So, I vote for Higgs too!

I do like watching Cirque du Soleil: Fire Within on Bravo. That's real reality TV. It's interesting to see how one of those shows comes together. I'm looking forward to when Verikai comes to the States - looks really awesome! Quidam came to St Petersburg in Dec. and extended it's show dates since they sold out so quick -- so I'm hoping that will mean other shows will come too. Of the 2 I've seen live (La Nouba & Quidam) - I prefered La Nouba, but I think that's because it's a permanent show, the stage allowed them to do more 'cool' stuff. Though Quidam's rigging was really impressive. It's amazing what they can put in a tent.

OK, enough of my Cirque thesis. If you get a chance to see Cirque - GO!

I like the in-office fountains AP - nice touch

-KP

 

[mrsapalm]

Alegria is in Houston right now and is drawing huge crowds. I watched an episode of The Fire Within last week and flipped over it. It was great - so I'm backing you up KP!
I swore off the dating reality shows after finding out about Fox's Married By America - it makes me sick. But I did (tee hee) watch "Meet My Folks" last night because it was a reverse show -- the single mom invited 3 potential beaux to her house to her 20-something 3 sons could choose one - it was hilarious!
And I was totally hooked on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! I was rooting for Stuttering John or Melissa, but Cris Judd was a real class act and I'm sure that show will open up a lot of doors for him.
I'm taking suggestions for team-building exercises for our group - every now and then a morale-booster is in order.

[madonna31]

Love the fountains AP - thanks!!

Kim - I agree 100% - in fact the ONLY TV I watch religiously is American Idol, and Friends - that's it!!

I saw a few episodes of Fire Within (but Kim - I hate to break the news to you...that IS indeed also a reality TV show (just because no one gets voted off - doesn't mean that it's not...so you DO watch them!!) I already saw Varakai! When it was here in Toronto - AMAZING! So for me, Fire Within is really cool, as I know what the final production looks like...If your lucky enough to have Varakai! come to your area - GO!!

Kim - you GOTTA see Alegria!!! (their best music is from that one also) Would you belive that I have yet to see La Nouba in WDW? Sad, I know...but I just can't get away from the parks long enough to take in a show!

ahhhh...Cirque - one of the finest imports to America from your neighbour to the North (well that and Winnie the Pooh... )

 

[Higgs22]

Thanks Kim…I appreciate the vote
And it’s good to know I’m not the only one who runs screaming from most reality shows…I will admit to watching the "Anna Nicole Show" every once and a while…but that is more like watching a train wreck…that woman has to be the stupidest person to EVER walk the face of the earth…I just can’t stop myself…I swear to you, she must have a little card saying "Breathe in, Breathe out…repeat as necessary" and if she stops reading it…she’ll stop breathing and die…(which would actually raise the collective IQ of the world by at least 5 points)…anyway…there it is…my secret shame….

And for my American Idol voters….
"The sun will come out toooommmmorrrroooowww…bet your bottom dollar that tooooommmmoooorrrooowww, they’ll be sun!…

Tomorrow, tomorrow…I love ya tomorrow….you’re only a dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwaaaaaayyyyyyy!"

 

[wdwoldtimer]

Are you sure Julia is enhanced, Jas? They look legit to me..not that I was even concentrating on that area, mind you. I'll have to keep my eyes on them as the show progresses....for scientific purposes, of course. Luckily I can catch the AI in Baghdad...they are really big on the show over here.

Contestant pics for the name-challenged

For the ultimate in DUMB reality TV shows, try out The Family. It is possibly the worse thing I've ever seen anywhere, ever. And I saw Blair Witch too.

I don't consider AI a reality show, however. It's really just a talent contest. The sad thing is, with the explosion of "reality" TV, the good shows like Survivor get lumped together with the trash.

Now if you want to see the ultimate in trash TV try ABC's Are You Hot? Just when you thought TV couldn't get any worse they create this show. It makes The Bachelor look like something you might find on PBS. A total meat wagon where idiots parade themselves on stage half naked to be "graded" on their looks. Watch it and feel ashamed of yourself....at least that's how I feel every week when I'm glued to the set....roflmao.

 

[wdwoldtimer]

By the way, AP....SOMEONE made it to the wall of shame on the Survivor thread. Now who reported your score?!?!?

 

[ozzel]

Ah, but I seperate the "reality" shows where people are put into not normal situations and they film it. Then the real Reality shows - or as they used to be called Documentaries - like Fire Within. Although the narrator adds to the whole 'drama' thing. "If Gareth doesn't make this flip, the world will come to a screaching halt." Don't take that wrong - I have more respect for those athletes/artists than you can shake a stick at - just the narrator amuses me.

Madonna - you've seen Varakei. You booger. I'm not sure I can like you anymore. I am very jeolous now. I'm turning my back to you. NO, just leave me be.....snif

I've seen Alegria on Bravo - I do love the music. I might have to invest in a CD or two next time I'm at DTD. At least I've seen La Nouba and you haven't. That makes me feel a little better. Though you MUST see it.

Is Junkyard Wars on Discovery channel considered a reality show? That is good television whatever it is classified as

 

[mrsapalm]

I dunno about Junkyard Wars - maybe it's more of a tech/DIY/building stuff kind of show than a simple reality show.
A favorite of mine is What Not To Wear on BBCAmerica - the honest cattiness of Trinny and Whatserface is fabulous, plus the victim gets 5000 pounds with which to shop - how bad can that be?
And I love watching Anna Nicole - you know we Houstonians are soooo proud of her representin' the way she does. I missed Sunday night's episode, so I'll be watching the rerun. Oh gosh - do I watch too much bad tv? Maybe it's rotting my brain cells.
I think I need a nice, cool glass of '73 Bay Lake to calm myself.

[wdwoldtimer]

I saw Anna Nicole's show once....is she like ******** or something? Or maybe on some serious drugs?

(No offense whatsoever was intended towards those who are mentally handicapped or just plain stupid, it's a figure of speech.)

 

[jwill]

Anna Nicole Smith is definitely on some heavy drugs. One drug you can rule out is heroin however.

 

[madonna31]

rotfl jwill...

Higgs - can you warn people next time you are going to sing?!?

psst note to self: when booking entertainment for Mickey's 75th water party - DO NOT ask Higgs to sing the national anthem...

 

[Higgs22]

Oh Madonna...I'm hurt...and to think my next song was going to be your hit "Vogue"
