Johnny Cash Rises From Grave to Kill American Idol Contestant
Okay
so perhaps that’s a slight exaggeration in the headline. I’m guessing Johnny Cash merely rolled over in his grave when he heard Adam Lambert’s bastardization of the classic “Ring of Fire.” Had Jaoquin Phoenix not already gone crazy
maybe he would have rushed the stage to stop what millions of Americans witnessed last night. Instead
we get one of the most horrifying performances in American Idol history. If you missed it
thank your lucky stars. If you saw it
I hope you’ve managed to block it from your mind. I’ll keep the rest of my American Idol thoughts short going into tonight’s elimination. Looks like one of the ladies is leaving tonight. If it’s Megan Joy Corker
so long. If it’s either Alexis Grace or 16-year old Allison Iraheta
than the judges will have a difficult choice on whether to use their one save. Matt Giraud continues as my favorite after another strong performance last night with Danny Gokey close behind. I was glad to see Anoop Desai bounce back like he did. As you can guess
I’m fairly certain the men will extend their lead in American idol finalists. Thus far
there have been 8 male and 6 female finalists. When this season is over
it will be 10 male finalists… and the men will tie the women in total winners at 4 a piece.
Poker legalization hearing in Greenville
SC
The Poker Players Alliance has just sent out notice of a poker legalization hearing in Charleston and Greenville
SC this month. From the e-mail: Playing poker in the privacy of your own home is a crime in South Carolina thanks to a ridiculous outdated state law signed 209 years ago. Senate President Pro Tem Glenn McConnell will be holding two public hearings to discuss S535 a bill that would legalize home poker games and also expand charity gaming (including charity poker tournaments) in the state. The first public hearing will be March 23rd in North Charleston City Hall and the second on March 30th in the Greenville County Council Chambers
both start at 5:30pm. I plan to attend the March 30 hearing in Greenville. The PPA is looking for a large turn-out of pro-poker folks. Details: Monday
March 30th 5:30-7:30 pm Greenville County Council Chambers 301 University Ridge Greenville
SC 29601 I’ll likely have more on the subject in the coming days. In the meantime
if you’d like to RSVP for the hearing
you can do so HERE. To read the full text of the bill
