Hello, and welcome to the American Idol Annex of Shmuel's Soapbox! The idea is to provide a space where people who like the American Idol entries can read 'em, while people who really have no interest whatsoever can read the main body of the Soapbox untroubled by commentary on this week's performances. Or, rather, they can wonder why I'm not posting anything new, if the past couple weeks are any guide.
There will also, for the first time, be comments, or at least the opportunity to post them. I'm skeptical about those, and expect to turn 'em off before the season ends, but, who knows, I might be pleasantly surprised. Have fun!
Posted by Shmuel at February 18, 2004 1:57 PMOMG! Comments! And I have nothing to say about American Idol because Diane Sawyer doesn't talk about it anymore! The tragedy and irony are killing me.
Posted by: Erin at March 3, 2004 8:52 PMHeh. Well, we're just finishing the preliminaries and getting to the good bit, so there's still time for Sawyer to get hooked again.
(Oh, and, see? [...he says, ostensibly to Erin, but mostly to explain some of the subtext to anybody else reading this...] I've finally started using Moveable Type! Your efforts were not in vain! Granted, this isn't the originally-intended purpose, but it's a start...)
