1. But then you missed the Beatles medley,
Rumors were flying all over the Idol chat sites that on the final episode they were going to have a "surprise" appearance by Paul McCartney. It turned out to be Bette Midler instead. Here is what happened: Sir Paul cancelled The Night Before and the producers were in a panic Yesterday, when all their troubles seemed so far away, because Sir Paul decided he was going to sing For No One. The producers thought, well whatever it is, We Can Work It Out. One last-ditch phone call resulted in Sir Paul saying merely Hello, Goodbye and hanging up. With this show mainly Being for the Benefit of Mr. Cowell and Mr. Fuller, they rang up The Divine Miss M even though it was 3 a.m. in Europe and said, Good Morning, Good Morning. The grateful Miss M said, no problem, I can be Here, There and Everywhere. Besides, I'm replacing Celine and I could really use a shot of publicity. Just tell me I don't have to deal with Mean Mr. Mustard. "Oh no, Miss M," replied Mr. Fuller. Nobody will ever know what Things We Said Today. Her plane was late and the show had already started, so She Came in Through The Bathroom Window. When she couldn't find the stage, she asked Katharine how to get there, but Katharine would only say I don't know, Think For Yourself. Bette brushed passed her muttering "Your Mother Should Know" and when asked why she was there instead of Paul, said he's a real Nowhere Man. Upon passing the Bush Baby guy and his buddy, Bette tried to decide whether to sing "I am the Walrus" or "Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey." She merely advised them, "Don't you listen to what the man says." Spotting Mr. Fuller and Mr. Davis she broke into a few bars of "Baby You're A Rich Man." Bette thought to herself, "When I'm 64 I'm sure as hell not going to turn down an opportunity like this. I'm Fixing a Hole in this Rock Show... enough of the Beatles, folks, Maybe I'm Amazed to be here, but you shouldn't be. Get Back, everybody... I'm about to pass Wind Beneath My Wings."

3. Why do you feel it necessary to spell "American" with a K?

13. OK. I just thought that was usually a political thing, not about a TV show.

5. I have, and I voted.
Many times in the first go-round of it. I kind of got discouraged by the fact that the really talented black females were sometimes eliminated first before less-talented white ones. Ruben Stoddard winning over Clay Aiken redeemed it for me, and then I lost interest again.
