American Idol 7

And I wanted to add I was glad to see Ruben tonight. I forgot how much I like his voice, he really is a lovely singer. But I'm sad to see he's not taking better care of his health, I was hoping that would be a high priority after he won.

ETA: and for those of you trying to vote -- are they still taking votes? -- are you trying on a landline or your cell? I haven't voted tonight because I'm feeling like things should just take whatever course they will (though I stand by my preference of DC not being bound by the AI contract), but when I've voted in the past, I noticed I never got through on my cell but had a lot more luck on my landline

They take votes for two hours after the show ends in your time zone. I was trying on my landline and just kept hitting redial. I think the text votes determine the winner because the phone lines can obviously only take so many votes at once. If you get a constant busy signal, then it stands to reason that as many votes as possible are being recorded.

Last night the phones were open for votes for 4 hours. I tried and got through on my cell 7 times closer to 11:30pm.

Well, I'm flipping around to watch Law & Order, because this is boring me to tears. Just go ahead and tell us already.

The show doesn't come on for another 5 more hours here, but I'm definitely enjoying the live blog: http://newsroom.mtv.com/2008/05/21/l...-results-show/

HI-LARIOUS.

OTW- I have heard that there are 2 blocks of time zone voting- one for Eastern/Central and one for Mountain/Pacific.... is there voting after it airs in Hawaii or do you all get shut out?

As to the others... i haven't even turned on the TV yet. Good Lord- 2 hours? Give me a break.

We get to vote from 9p-11p just like the rest of the country.

(We even managed to piss a lot of people off when Jasmine Trias made the Top 3 way back when, lol)
