One More Blog To Read!

Since I've suddenly found myself with an abundance of spare time on my hands, I have decided to make poor use of that time and create a blog.  I'm still fleshing out the details, but what I have in mind is sort of a entertainment/newsweekly combo blog of sorts.  Each day will feature a specific category of varying interests.  Along with the topic itself, each post will hopefully also feature my always insightful insight into the particular topic of note.  Tomorrow I plan on posting the weekly format- outlining what will be discussed on each day of the week.  For some of the topic categories, I hope to enlist the aid of some guest bloggers, so if your up to the task, let me know!

One of the things I have been doing to pass the time the past few days is developing an addiction to youtube.  There, I came across a show called The X Factor.  It's very much like American Idol (so, of course, I was instantly hooked), even featuring Simon Cowell as one of the judges.  Maybe it's just because I was watching the last few episodes, but it seems the show puts a little more weight on the production value of a performance (lots of dancing, props, and backup vocalists) than just the straight up performance itself (like AI tends to do) so in a way I kinda liked it a little better--blasphemy, I know!  Anyway, one of the groups I really liked was called JLS.  They had a fabulous performance of the song "Hallelujah" (the same one Jason Castro sang on the last season of AI).  



Hopefully watching clips of that show will tie me over until AI starts back up on Jan. 13.  
Until the next post, take care!

  1. YES! Finally! I've been waiting on a blog, written by a Looney, that I can read and actually UNDERSTAND! Bless you, Nathan, for providing this most entertaining and insightful blog for the masses (or me and the other guy who're following it, for now). The masses will come! Just you wait! It'll happen!
