It’s that time of year again…
 

Welcome to Jestertunes! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Feel free to leave a comment, read through the archives, and enjoy yourself. See you again real soon!

American Idol’s 7th season started last night. Two hours of scary singers, horrible costumes (seriously, what was up with that fat guy dressed like a gay gladiator???), and the occasional piece of eye candy.

My blog gets a considerable bump in traffic and visitors when I blog about the competition. I know there are some of you out there who HATE HATE HATE the whole American Idol thing and would prefer that I not blog about it.

So I’ve created this poll for everyone to give me some feedback. You’ve got until Monday to answer…

Do you like the new design here at Jestertunes?

While I do love your writing Idol just bores me. I say write it anyway people who don’t want to read it can just skip over that days posts

AAHHH…Please don’t!

I’m not a fan of Idol, either, but it’s your blog, so blog away!

Of course, when I try to vote for “No” on the poll, it asks me to choose a valid answer.

I can’t vote for anything either.

I didn’t know gladiators were gay, but that totally makes sense, because all hot guys (real gladiators) are built and totally hot.

Like every fricken’ gay guy in america. Bastards!

i’m in the ‘couldn’t care less about idol but it’s your blog so write what you want’ crowd. i’m one of the few who don’t use a feed reader. (i like seeing the templates and checking out the sidebars at everyones site, it feels more like visiting with friends that way) so i’ll be stopping in daily anyway. i just might not comment.

Being idle about “Idol” is not your style. :)

Idol is a guilty pleasure of mine, Love it!!! Love your blogs too so blog away! I’m looking forward to hearing your comments on the contestants!

Topncal - I’m reserving decision until after the poll closes.

Branden - Noted.

Avitable - You can try to vote again. I think I fixed it.

The Absurdist - This guy on Idol was definitely NOT hot.

heather - I think I would comment at other sites more often if I weren’t using a feed reader. But I couldn’t get through nearly as many posts everyday.

Crail - I can’t deny I enjoy the drama.

Jesi - My comments are merely ok… my parrot Ndugu is the one who comes up with the funniest one-liners.

I quite enjoy your wit on any topic, and Idol is no different. It just gives me another reason to disagree with you on things that I know absolutely nothing about (pitch, harmony, singing…you know, things like that). The only thing that worries me, truly, is if you’ll have enough time to blog about Idol as you have in the past…

Toby - I always make time for Idol. :)

love your blog. with or without idol. although when i tried to vote it wouldn’t let me. i thought it was because i got here late.

anyhow, i would have voted to have you blog about idol because you pick up details that never in a brazillian years would i catch. blog away, bay-bee!

hello - I’ll add your vote to the tally. I think the issues some of you are having with using the poll concerns the use of cookies. I’m going to switch it to be ip-based.

I’m all for it as long as you include the bird’s opinions too.

Ginamonster - Ndugu is psyched for this season already.

Voting is still not working. I think you just want to see how much time we’ll spend trying to cast a vote…and you’re now secretly sitting at your computer laughing your ass off every time one of us pushes on the vote button…but we love you either way.

Toby - Voting is working fine for some people… Not sure what your problem is. You’ve never been normal. And yes, you do look pretty funny hammering away at that button. Smile for the camera. :)
