more readjustment: a supreme court justice retiring (or being sick) is NOT cause for panic.

i love adam & will continue voting like mad for him, but betting on #idol is like playing anything at casinos: the house always wins.

alison is so awesome and cute & a thousand times more poised than she was when this show started it’s amazing. #idol (also nice extensions!)
