Coo gosh wow! headline of the day

Post by MajGenl.Meade »

Carrie Underwood-themed 'American Idol' night ends with shocking double-elimination
:o :shock:

Coo!

Gosh!

Wow!

And why are no Kardtrashians involved?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

They were - they were just keeping a low profile.

American Idol?  Is that show still around?
And who (or what) is Carrie Underwood?  Are they related to the company that made typewriters and other business machines?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I have always considered the name of the tv show to be spelled wrong--it should be American Idle.

Surely not! American Idyll, I think.

If it's American it's idyl; English English is idyll.

I know this because I try to do the NYT crossword daily with no lookups. Nov 21 2021, 63A was 'Rustic verse' and once I had a few crosses I knew it had to be IDYL. I had never, as far as I knew, seen it spelled that way so I had to look it up and sure enough it's the US spelling of a word I am familiar with as IDYLL. I'm used to US spelling idiosyncrasies such as honor and humor and aluminum but I had lived 36+ years in this country but never come across that one. In the same way as the English time-wasting-talentless-waste-of-space is spelled (spelt) in American as Kardashian.
