Spoiler follows!
Still at work, but apparently Carrie won!
Pool wrapup to follow in the comments once I get home. Talk amongst yourselves!

I really think it was a tight race this season.
Carrie made me like that "Inside Your Heaven" song when she sang it tonight.
Although when it's realeased as a single, I may change my tune... lol
Was it just me, or did that Rascall Flats guy sound like Aaron Neville?
Auditions come to Boston this round... I need a gimmick!
Nice competition. Both will go far no matter what.
Final results of the second annual Shmuel's Soapbox American Idol Annex Pool:
Sockgirlie -- 27
Heather -- 22
Jesse -- 18
TeKay -- 16
Mo Pie -- 13
Shmuel -- 11
This year's lesson: putting all your eggs in one basket can pay off, provided that you choose the right basket. Sockgirlie predicted that Carrie would win every single week, and had Bo in second for seven weeks, picking up 18 of her points tonight. Had Bo won, she'd have gotten none of those, and come in dead last. Then again, once you get into alternate scenarios, there's no end to the possibilities... The point is, she was the only one to choose Carrie for the top spot in the first week, she stuck to her guns, and she was vindicated. Sockgirlie wins the mix CD and the bragging rights. Congratulations!
And thanks to all of you for participating and making this a fun season!
Posted by: Shmuel at May 25, 2005 11:19 PMWOOOO!!!! I was a little nervous there last week, but felt better after Tuesday night. Slow and steady wins the race, baby.
In other news, I'm updating from L.A. right now, where I visted the Kodak Theatre this morning. They still had the set up, so it was awesome to see that. We also got to grab some confetti. My dad marched right up and sat in Simon's chair, which I'm not sure we're supposed to do. Anyway, I'm looking forward to watching the show when I get home as I didn't get to see it last night.
Did I mention Woo? Because WOO!!!
