Busy Life

In January I decided to volunteer to work with the family group (FRG) of my husband's boat. (Note: Submarines are boats & Surface ships are ships. This is an important distinction.) Well, it is now mid-April and I am busy every week with FRG stuff. I had planned to volunteer with the Retired Affairs office, but I don't know that I will have time any longer to do so. Anyway, that's pretty much my life.

Tv viewing:
American Idol- I can't say how happy I was that Megan finally got booted last week. She was annoying and in the words of Simon Cowell "terrible." This week Scott got the boot and to be quite honest I didn't care either way. He was good, but there are others who are much more versatile performers. However, I do see Scott possibly getting signed somewhere. His piano skills are very good.

Dancing With the Stars- Steve Wozniak & Holly Madison finally got voted off last week and thank goodness for that. They were awful dancers. I know everyone says "well, Holly didn't get the full amount of time and blah, blah, blah..." That woman was a bad dancer and I don't think a few extra weeks would have helped her. This week had the surprise of David Allen Grier getting the boot. He really didn't deserve that, because he was a decent dancer. I like Steve-O, but he just can't dance. However, this shows how fans voting make a big impact. Steve-O has the fan base so he stays.

Hell's Kitchen- Finally Carol got cut last week. I thought Gordon Ramsey was never going to let that woman go. This week should be interesting. I am looking forward to what happens tonight.

Aloha from the Islands....have a great evening!

Strong Opinions on TV

I watch several television shows, follow them quite closely and have strong opinions about them. This week has been all about Dancing With The Stars. (American Idol wasn't on last night, nor was the President's speech....thus is life in Hawaii.) I watched DWTS on Monday with certainty that Steve Wozniak (sp?) would be eliminated. The guy is a horrible dancer. There is no denying that fact. Surprise, surprise last night....he wasn't eliminated at all. Instead Denise Richards got the boot. She wasn't good either, but her dance off against Holly Madison proved she was the better dancer of those two women. The only decent thing I can say about Holly not getting voted off yet is that I get to watch her partner dance another week. The guy she's dancing with is new to the show this season and he is great! Next season get him a better partner and we'll be in business.
