    I saw a clip on the evening news about Susan Boyle advancing to the semi-finals of "Britain's Got Talent". She looked nice! She must have had her eyebrows waxed, and she had on a pretty, sparkly dress. And of course she sounded great. Simon Cowell didn't say much when she was performing, which is fine with me because I've seen him be so negative, bordering on downright mean, on "American Idol". I wish they would show the semi-final rounds here, but I'll have to find it on the Internet. What a great story!

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    Susan took the most votes from her semi-final tonight and is through to next Saturday's final.
    I keep going to You Tube looking for her newest appearance and checking out her competetion..OMG! She has some competetion.. Have you checked out;

    Julian Smith? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8xC3TdM2Xk

    Or Jamie Pugh? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1KHRf02ups (tissue alert on this one)

    Or Gregg Pritchard.. what a shocker this one was!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c2B_G7MY94

    or this little girl Natalie Okri http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mAqUWuJayw

    There is a ton of great talent on that show and I would hate to be a judge and have to decide. It will be interesting to see what happens but my money is on Susan Boyle, Jamie Pugh, Julian Smith or little Natalie Okri (with Julian Smith the winner out of the ones I have seen so far, leaving Susan Boyle free to make a LOT more $$$$$!)

    Off to You Tube to see if Susan is on there from latest appearance..



    Found it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SncyQKe6CnQ

    OMG! She stared out bad but ended with a BANG! GO SUSAN!

    Little Natalie Okri didn't get through from last night's round. She is an absolutely gorgeous little girl with so much personality, but she was up against some stiff opposition.

    Susan was very nervous, wasn't she?

    Susan Boyle absolutely gives me goosebumps every time I hear her sing.

    Yes, I got to see Pebbles too - what a darling kitty.

    I think I need to invite Pebbles to Thursdays so we can give her a catnip tea.

    She's just amazing. If she doesn't take the title, a whole lot of people will be shocked, including me!

    Little Natalie Okri blew me away with her audition but I was terriably dissapointed in her finale performance. I get goose bumps over Susans "Somewhere".... It was obvious she didn't warm up her voice and went out there cold but the smile on her face when she recovered was priceless! The ending gave me GOOSE BUMPS!!

    I want to hear MORE Julian Smith too!
