Adoptable of the Week - Boomer
Tuesday, April 7, 2009 at 10:11PM Here's goes a new weekly post I'm going to try, in the hopes of helping a homeless dog find a home. I can't adopt another dog for space and economic reasons, but maybe you can? I know it's a long shot, but at the very least I can pass this info along, right?
Best Friends organization in Utah, runs the largest no-kill sanctuary in the US. I subscribe to their Twitter feed and today they posted this video about Boomer. He may not be the most ideal adoptable candidate (as he is old and has to take medication), but his sweet demanor and plea from a friendly volunteer tugged at my heart strings.
I hope Boomer finds a permanent family to call his own.
Danny - there's a lot of hate for this guy in the blog world (from those that actually watch the show) and I just don't get it. Check Dial Idol and guess who’s number 1? Yup it's Danny. Wasn’t his best night, but if you don’t like him, too bad. He’s not going anywhere and that’s the way it should be. When he got to the chorus, it was amazing (and I don't even like the song he sang).
ANOOP! So happy to see he’s back. I thought he was the best of the night. Loved, Loved, loved him! Way to just do it.
Matt - Woo hoo! Man I love this guy. I thought his performance was really nice.
Lil - bad song. I too wish that she had done I Will Always Love You. I still love her though.
Adam - Meh. Not my thing. I love the original version and I while I love the fact that he is unique, some of those falsetto notes were horrid. I don’t care if he’s over the top, I just care if he sings well. Tonight was not it.
Megan - great song choice for her. But honestly, sick or not sick, I CANNOT STAND HER PHRASING. Blech.
Alison - Great performance, but will people remember her?
Michael Sarver - the only one who really sang country tonight. I don’t like that song, but he served the genre well.
Chris Allen - this is the first time I really enjoyed his vocals. Great job!
Alexis - ugh. Poor thing. I did not like this interpretation. Did Brooke do this last year? I seem to remember liking Jolene last year and on paper you'd think this was a great choice for Alexis. What happened? I like her and I hope she doesn’t go anywhere.
Scott - I didn’t like his song choice. He’s an awesome pianist, but I just haven’t connected with him. He's kind of boring to me, but I want him to make the tour.
Going home: Alexis or Allison - although I'm thinking this could be the week the judges use the "save" option.
My personal faves: Danny, Anoop and Matt (in no particular order)
