Okay, let me first start by saying congradulations, RUBEN! I was pulling for him; hoping he'd win. I had a bad feeling Clay would... But, alas, Ruben did; and thank God he did. Now... As I was enjoying the aftermath of Ruben's victory over Clay... I got an Instant Message from someone.

As most of you may know, I'm on my vacation from the forums. I was enjoying it very much, relaxing, etc. All of the sudden, I hear Geoff's on the site saying it was fixed? One word for that...

EXCUSES!

How can you say it was fixed? Have you seen America's fascination with Ruben Studdard? Freaking Alabama has their own "Ruben Day!" On all the talk shows, you see people talking about Ruben. I think Diane Sawyer likes Clay more... But, besides that, even the celebrities love Ruben! Even my hero, Quentin Tarantino loves Ruben! Have you noticed the thousands of people with "205" shirts? Are you saying, even for a second; that Clay had more votes, and it was fixed? Utter bullshit! mad eek Don't make me verbally rape you, Geoff. wink grin

I can tell you this, Clay is awesome. I never liked him... But, I have to admit, the guy can fucking sing. But, to put down Ruben, just because he won, and say it was fixed... That's pretty rude. ohwell Both men deserved the win, and Ruben got it. Don't put him down for it; think positive for him. You can be upset; but saying it's fixed... You're being a sore loser! frown Just embrace the fact that Ruben is our new American Idol. Just like Clay, the guy can sing.

Now, with that... I'm heading back on my vacation from around here. If I hear anything more about you, Geoff, talking about Ruben... Don't think for a second I won't come storming back! grin tongue
