One week of Idol is in the books

Well, I didn't take the opportunity to get much advance scouting done this week, although I did catch the judges sending Anoop Dog to Hollywood despite calling him the worst-dressed individual in history.

I opted instead to watch the Caps' rousing win in Pittsburgh last night. But hey, at least I freshened-up the blog this afternoon in between looking for a job as a grocer in this down economy (Maybe I should just marry one) and sorting through the hundreds of e-mail messages in my inbox.

Does this pass as a news item? So far we are up to nine guaranteed participants. Maybe I will write a feature breaking down the competition. Unless the editor of the story I haven't yet finished is reading this. In that case, I'm only working on this story.
