Has anyone seen this? What do you think? I only heard about it the other day, came across videos of some of the acts on the internet. It seems to be a bit like X- factor or American Idol or something but people can do other stuff besides sing, and its not restricted to people over 16. I dont think I can watch it from where I am, but will be keeping track of whats going on. Did anyone else hear that amazing 11 year old singer that was on it last week or so I think? Video here....

(Is someone keeping a list?) Well, although CE is the King of Lists, I'll start this one off...so far, the lady members of OLTVA (Old-Ladies' Traditional Values Association) are as follows: rosfrog ~ Renie (Founder) Boo Radley ~ Gladys/Mabel sarah-flute ~ Doris Cyrilla ~ Gertrude andante in c ~ Peggy bobifier ~ Georgina (hmm, not sure this one is 'old-lady' enough, bobifier!) katyjay ~ Maud sbhoa ~ Ethel Amber ~ Winifred janexxx ~ Edna Choddy ~ Agatha Oddball ~ Alfred (ALFRED??? What's he doing in an Old Ladies' association??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Turf him out immediately, Oddball, and ask him to send his wife along instead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
