i'm sure most people know paula claimed to have had rsd and say she is cured ... she had problems acting weird last season on air and claimed she was using meds to deal with her rsd pain. so is it drunk or is it medication? she has not done much for us as far as being an rsd spokesperson or even making rsd look like a 'real' syndrome.

Hey all:

I love American Idol, my husband even had it waiting for me when I returned from my voice lesson on Tuesday! What a guy! Star Search, god I was young then lol. Gong Show, yikes! I remember my first clogs, leather with red apples embroidered on the front that I would put on to dance.

Paula Abul I think was incorrectly diagnosed. She has so much cervical damage that it could have been any number of things. What peed me off most was the doctor from Cedars Sinai who stated, "this is a rare disorder and very few people have it" Has he not done his research? I understand there to be 200,000 to 1.2 million people who have this, I don't call that very few! I think both he and Paula are tipping the bottle back and having a good laugh!

I know with my hands, I am lucky to get an hour of typing a day and that is with a lot of start and stops. Anyone care to guess how many dishes I drop? It's funny but not!

So LET'S HAVE FUN! I would love to pick favorites on AI! An early favorite is I think called "Jordan"???? not sure, 16yr old, black female, red shirt with cropped jean jacket. She has potential!!! Just my opinion.

oh and now the feud about it with Rosie- that they shouldn't make fun of the bad ones?

most of them say they watch the show - so they should know how it goes- if you are bad they will play it over and over.
so why don't they record themselves and really listen to how they sound -
I think some do it just to get on TV.
How can they not know how bad they sing???

Maybe their family and friends are all tone deaf, so they really don't know.
But a tape recording wouldn't lie.

Hey Jo

My sister dreams of being a eurovision song contest writer and singer.... (a very trashy european singing competition). Unfortunaly no matter how many times she is recorded/ camcorded she cannot see that

SHE CANNOT SING!!!!

some people are just in denial about how badly they sing/ dance... and no matter how many times you tell them they continue to believe that you are jealous of their great talent..

(Hey it's one of the best things about coming back to Uni - no more songs like "I'm washing up and happy", "Judy is a gorgeous baby (dog)", "When I grow up I want a pouff puff (Alphred)". etc

...even more worryingly she is a nurse - and sings to her patients when she is with them (including "the dressing song" "the spasic dressing song [reserved for me] and "getting to the commode" song.

scary huh?

...anyway the main point was that the families have probaly tried to tell them they can't sing.

and failed.

OH MY GOSH! I dont think I have ever laughed so much in my life!!! "getting to the commode" song!!!!???

No offense - But thank goodness she's YOURS! LOL!!!

There was a guy on there (Wednesday's show) who was from my home town - VERY SCARY!!! I think some of these people think they are going to end up like William Hung - Could be?

I thought the woman and her mom (the blonde & brunette) who looked alike were pretty funny! We're still wondering if the blonde had a bra on or not!!??

Hi Rosie,

What a truly funny reply, I laughed like a drain (and hey, the Eurovision Song Contest ).....I think you really have answered the queries we all have with AI (i.e. what were they thinking???) - I reckon you'll make a great psychologist.

Sorry to mix threads, (but I have no suggestions for the dystonia, so sorryyyy...) just wanted to say good luck with the exams, hope you can get things calmed down in time because, from this post, your brain sounds in very good form indeed..

artist sings ------> Good Luck!!<-----
all the best.

OH MY!!! Hubbyw/RSD - you made me start to cry so hard.....with laughter!!! That blonde did not have a bra on at all, if she did then she has two sets! My husband just laughed at her and said "Gravity is not her friend"! Maybe we should find her and send her an 18hour!

Heya!!!

I'm sure that Lotti does birthday parties, weddings and occassionas at a very decent price.

I am trying to persuade her to sing to camera for me to post on you tube so that every time you need a giggle you can watch her...

(by the way she is writing a new song at the moment...)

The exam was just a complete waste of time - at a revision session we were told what areas the exams would be on... and that we would have to write 5 mini essays in 2 hours. So we all prepared - and they had written the exam wrong --> it was actually for 2 quetions in 2 hours. So they are now declaring the exam null and void!! (so it was a waste of time working - though I do now know about the ethics of social research and about the importance of (not) plagirising. or something.

I think my dystonia flare is cold related - because that really is not good at the moment - but it will improve - hopefully before Pirate day - because I need to be able to hold a sword for then.. and dress up as a Pirate (woohoo!)

Hope you are all ok - it's snowing here!!

Love Rosie xxxxxxxx

Any thoughts on Birmingham? I was really suprised about the guy with the crazy fro! He has an awesome voice!!!

The gal at the end singing Madonna was a hoot!
