America's Got Talent - the Conclusion

I was neither right nor wrong, really. Terry Fator, the ventriloquist extraordinairre "won", but I believe we'll be hearing from all of the 4 finalists sometime in the future. I'm anxious to see what Cas Haley does most of all. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy and I like how he sounds. Julienne and Butterscotch will be fine performers somewhere and likely all of the top 10 acts received more pub than they ever could've imagined.

It's been interesting watching this show. They portray it as if these are virtual "nobodies", languishing in their living rooms and entertaining only their mirrors. Terry Fator is an accomplished performer, appearing in state fairs and all sorts of corporate events...he even won some "Male Performer of the Year" in 2006. So while he's definitely deserving, he's hardly the "unknown" that maybe they'd like us to believe. He made it through the gauntlet and came out on top. Props to him.

The new hire replied, "Thanks, do you know anything about this yearbook stuff? Because I don't..." Kelly signed up for yearbook this year...she already has Digital Photography, a questionable class and now Yearbook. Wednesday Elective Day is going t...
