Just read bitten's "Pour some sugar..." recap yesterday so just saw your comment then as well. Have you also read "The Phantom of David Cook" which is on this site too under AC's blog I think. I'm a fan of your buddy Dave and since he's on record as saying that he reads Cosmo to see what women want I wondered if he's truly clueless regarding his effect on women. After reading the above blogs you might want to warn him to be careful what he wishes for LOL. I never watched Idol before until I heard about Lionel Richie raving over his rendition of Hello. Checked it out on the tube and been a fan ever since, a voting fan, much to my embarassment. Never thought to see the day I'd not only watch but vote on American Idol! Your friend is very talented and should have a huge career.
Take care.
