The Show Must Go On.

About 15 minutes after I got home tonight, I got a call from Dave O'Roark, the director of the drama ministry at our church. After we exchanged pleasantries, he took a breath and said, "Okay, so here's the deal..."

That is never a good sign.

Instead of a strict gospel presentation like our church has done for the past two years, this year they're doing a multimedia presentation, with music, video and dramatic pieces. We asked not to be involved because we were in New Zealand when they started making plans.

But last night, Mark Price, one of the guys doing a dramatic reading with Dave, broke his foot in the parking lot of the church.

So now I have to memorize a 6-minutes monologue in the next 19 hours or so.

Prayer would be appreciated.

And to top it all off, Ace wasn't eliminated from American Idol last night. His sorry butt keeps skating through each week.

Ace has a "sorry butt?" I thought the final was going to come down to him and Chris, with the Pickle girl as a dark horse. Of course, I really haven't been watching it, so my opinion is based on early performances.

As for the rest of your message....well, I have confidence in you! I have confidence in sunshine! I have confidence in rain! I have confidence that spring will come again....

Ace needs to go, I agree, however, I could not have been happier that Bucky Biggest-hick-ever-can't-understand-a-word-out-of-his-mouth Covington is finally gone. He should have been gone in week two. I think it will come down to Chris and Tayler with Chris winning. I love them both, but Chris is the only one on the show who stands up in the real world.

Wes was talking about Easter in this posting, btw. I'm not sure that was mentioned.

Yeah, what's the deal with that Kelly Pickler anyway? In the beginning I thought she was sweet and cute. Which she is. But her appalling stupidity and naivetee is beginning to get on my nerves. She'll get eaten alive by the sharks in the music industry.
