Updates

Liz Update
I spoke to Sandy. She's at Liz & Nolan's house. She said Liz is bad sick & weak. She's at home and on more antibiotics for 14 days. The doctor said if she gets C.Diff again after this round of antibiotics, she will need to go to a Specialist for Disease. Please continue to remember her in your prayers.

American Idol
WOW! I'm so glad and surprised that Kris won American Idol. I figured Adam would get it because I think he was the judges favorite in the competition. I couldn't get over all the celebrity singers that performed on the show. Doug said he's favorite part of the show was when Kiss came out and performed with Adam Lambert. I have to say, it was good. One thing about Adam when he does get out on his own, he should give really good concerts.

I wished you could have seen Katie during the show. She was so funny! First of all, she found her microphone and began singing along with the singers on TV. Then, she ended up right smack dab in the middle of the floor to where it made it difficult for us to watch the performances. Lastly, she insisted on my to clap after she finished singing her songs. She had everything from singing to dancing. What a hoot! She even bowed a couple of times.

She made a game out of watching American Idol. When they would show someone like Allison or Lil Round, Katie would ask "do you think she's pretty?" Some of the girls, Katie didn't think they were pretty. She'd said, "I don't think she's pretty mom. Do you?" It was funny.

Glenn Beck
Poor thing! I still can't get over how he accepted to go on "The View". I think he knew what he was getting himself into. Unfortunately, Whoopi and Barbara got him in a feb. I didn't find it all that important or jaw dropping. On his radio show a couple of weeks ago, he misspoke and said that Barbara came over to him on the AmTrac and began talking to him. The truth was he went over to her and introduced himself. Whoop Dee Do! They also accused him of lying about them having reserved seats on the AmTrac when they didn't reserve seats. Whoopi kept asking him why he lied, but would not let him explain. My thing is - Don't ask a question, if you don't want an answer. Glenn continued to try and explain. Every time he began to answer the question, Whoopi would hold her hand up and said "wait a minute". Now, you're probably wondering what it was they accused him of lying about. He said and I quote, "an AmTrac worker told him that he couldn't sit in a specific seat because they were reserved for very important people. She went on and informed him that they were someone he would be impressed with". He said he was expecting someone like the President of The United States because AmTrac doesn't reserve seats. It's a first come, first serve rule. Next thing he knows, Barbara Walters and Whoopi Goldberg along with someone else in their party came in and sat down in those very same seats. Glenn told the story on his radio show and it upset Barbara and Whoopi because they had not reserved the seats. Now, whose to say it wasn't the other guy that reserved the seats or someone from their staff. All they knew that "they" didn't reserve the seats and they wanted Glenn to apologize for misleading the public. He did apologize for misleading everyone about Barbara coming over to him on the AmTrac, but they wouldn't let him explain the reserved seat story. Petty! From he said, she said story to why Glenn cries on his show issue made me feel so sorry for him. All Barbara wanted to know during the whole interview was what makes Glenn cry. Of course, he took some offense to it (no matter how nicely she spoke to him the question is still the same). When he pointed it out to her, then Barbara got on her high horse and began blasting him. Then, she went right back to the same question. She wanted to know what were his convictions that affect him so that makes him cry. He was trying to explain that it was the love for his country and how he believed in our forefathers like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. The women would not allow him to finish the question because they began asking him if he believed in this person and that person. At the same time, you've still got Barbara asking the same question again and again. He finally shrugged his shoulders, as if to say, there's no winning here. Glenn didn't loose anything on that show and I don't have much respect for a couple of the women on there.

They just don't get it!
