Sanjaya Malakar closer to winning

Well, Sanjaya Malakar is closer to winning first place in American Idol. This week he moved out of the lowest group and into the middle group. I've heard that people like Howard Stern are asking people to vote for him. (I'm still holding on to my India-also-calls-back theory, though.) I think a lot of people are tired of the "arrogance" of Simon Cowell. I actually think he's the most honest "judge." But I am very envious that he is paid so much money for so little. But then, that applies to a LOT of people. After all, the "world" really is not fair. Never has been; never will be. Just ask the dinosaurs... Anyway, we'll see what happens. I sort of hope that the show is not renewed next year. I'd like to see something along the line of the old Star Search. I used to enjoy sitting in a hot tub, snacking on nachos, and sipping champagne. Star Search had more variety and didn't resort to ridiculing the contestants. You think we had more class back then? Wonder what has changed? ... Well, maybe Sanjaya will make my show return. Cheers!

Sanjaya Malakar sings "I Will Survive"

Well, Sanjaya Malakar could sing that clever, peppy song. Last week I wanted to write about how he survived being voted off American Idol last week. This week I MUST write about it. I have nothing against him. He appears to be a very pleasant young man. But let's get real: he has a very weak voice and he lacks a strong stage presence. So how has he held on again? My theory is that India (or wherever we call) doesn't just ACCEPT support calls.
