Okay, now another futile struggle with our realities :-/ :-/ :-/ I wanted to buy dl - deluxe edition TP. I tried our iTunes. Could you imagine that our iTunes doesn't sell music AT ALL (or I'm totally cuckoo). Okay, I said to myself, I'll just make another account in the US iTunes. I'm too "clever", they sell dl only for American based accounts (or something like that). Okay, said I ones more, and went to Amazon. They have only regular edition >:( >:( >:( can I gift it to you? does anyone know if I can gift to a non-us e-mail? Oh... Oh, Thank you, Nica! That's so generous and tempting offer, but I'm afraid what if it will not work for me. At least from what I've read here before it might be the case :-/ Спасибо

My screen on the apples store showed him in number 3????? So if others are seeing #2, then all's good.
What is the maximum I can gift and still count?
I will also nudge DH to gift since he has an itunes account.
Just called my neighbors to come early so we can watch the live stream on the big screen TV. She seems excited so that is a good sign.

Clay Aiken was asked on outq why gay contestants don't win on AI. Quote from twitter:
"I don't think that Adam's sexuality had anything to do with it [coming in second on Idol]. I think that the reason Adam came in second was because Adam appeals to a niche audience. He still appeals to a very, very loyal niche audience, and Kris Allen had a much broader, universal, many would say "vanilla" appeal, and when you're letting America vote on these shows, they're going to pick the most broad appealed person ... it's going to be the popular vote." (then he says that many artists on labels who are "extremely successful" wouldn't do well on Idol).
"Adam arguably has had more success at radio than Kris Allen has, but Adam's got a niche that works well for him, and I don't think that it had anything to do with his sexuality, and I think that it had to do with vanilla is the most popular ice cream flavor in the country. How often do you go to the store and buy vanilla and say "Ooh, I love vanilla", no, but we eat more of it than anything else, than rocky road. People get more excited about mint chocolate chip."

Timezones are fun sometimes ... when you realise that another part of the world suddenly is awake .... This is a fun website for that. You can see that it is late afternoon in Austria and around noon here in Texas (12:42pm to be exact). Antarctica has almost reached full night and on the opposite pole, The Arctic is almost full day. Oops, forgot to post the site. :-[ www.die.net/earth/Wow, so cool ;D Now can't wait for my son to get up and see it, he likes astronomy :D

Evidence ETA: I don't want to be mean but please, guys, for the next itime check your info before posting I've almost got a heart attack after reading about Adam's decrease No Ame, when she said Trespassing was at #3, I checked my iTunes and overall it was dropped to #3 and then I went to check the pop music and it's still #2 on Pop. Now ti's back up at #2.
