3 things

1. pearl jam album is good. favorite songs so far are marker in the sand, comatose, parachutes and gone. i think. need to listen to it some more, but it's good and now i'm even more psyched to see them in 2 weeks...

2. cubs suck. last 4 games: 34-4. canNOT hit left handing pitching - unbelieveable. i'm glad they won the game on monday because i was there and it broke a personal losing streak (shout out to bill o. for the ticket), but man are they sad.

3. idol. elliot and paris were the best, but paris doing mary just doesn't work, sorry. chris sang the same song again, just different lyrics. shocking, i know. katharine's first song was horrible, but her second song was one of the best last night. taylor - what can i say. powder blue shoes with pink shoelaces. i hate to run things into the ground, but seriously - can he say anything other than "soul patrol!"? i've got paris and soul patrol in the bottom two, with (hopefully) the muppet going home.
