The character in the movie played by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0005435\/\">Sinbad<\/a> calls himself that.  I know it looks like a ridiculous movie, and it is, but there&#8217;s something enjoyable about it as well.   I must have seen it four times already and still find it quite amusing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.breigh.com\/mt\/pics\/byelindsey.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"2\" vspace=\"2\" align=\"left\" \/> So I was right about the first one voted off <a href=\"http:\/\/www.idolonfox.com\">American Idol<\/a>!  Can&#8217;t say I&#8217;ll miss her much, her performance this week was as flat and boring as every other one she&#8217;s given so it was no surprise.<\/p>\n<p>I think I&#8217;ve changed my mind about the next two to go though.  <a href=\"http:\/\/origin.idolonfox.com\/contestants\/mikalah_gordon\/\">Mikalah<\/a> gave an incredibly poor performance this week <em>and<\/em> last week and found herself in the bottom three, together with <a href=\"http:\/\/origin.idolonfox.com\/contestants\/jessica_sierra\/\">Jessica<\/a> who was a bit of a surprise.  On the other hand, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.idolonfox.com\/contestants\/constantine_maroulis\">Constantine<\/a> did really well and everyone seemed to love it.   So this has all thrown me for a loop.  The only thing I&#8217;m still certain of is that Scott&#8217;s days are numbered!<\/p>\n<p>Must not forget this week&#8217;s Bo video! Here you have it!<\/p>\n<div>&#8212;-&gt; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breigh.com\/videos\/BoWheel.wmv\">Bo Bice &#8211; Spinning Wheel<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another great one!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>We&#8217;ve finally started working on the trim here in the house.  Today Xander sanded it all with an electric sander and tomorrow I will start repainting it with a simple white.  It will be SO weird to not see any more pink!  Definately a good kind of weird though, for sure.<\/p>\n<p>Got another package from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gailontheweb.blogspot.com\/\">Gail<\/a> yesterday!  It included a hand written letter and a CD with a video of a Cape Breton band she&#8217;d seen in concert.  Wow, when I closed my eyes as I was listening to it, I&#8217;d swear I was back in Smooth Herman&#8217;s again with my girls, stomping along to some celtic song and thinking I was going to be 19 forever.   This was the second hand written letter I&#8217;ve gotten in two months, which are the first I&#8217;ve gotten in 5 years!  I really have to sit down and write some of these myself because I really loved getting snail mail again!  Of course I shouldn&#8217;t say anything, I still have postcards sitting here that I wrote in July for <a href=\"http:\/\/klbarrus.blogspot.com\/\">Karl<\/a> and still haven&#8217;t sent!  Thanks Gail!!<\/p>\n<p>BIG congrats out to our friends <a href=\"http:\/\/www.timandkibbie.com\">Kibbie and Tim<\/a> on the birth of their baby girl <a href=\"http:\/\/www.timandkibbie.com\/gallery\/20050314\">Rylie Donne<\/a> the beginning of this week.
