Is Chris Isaak to Replace Simon Cowell on American Idol?



Is Chris Isaak American Idol’s New Simon Cowell?
Oh I do hope so. I love Chris Isaak. He has a great voice and he's funny too. He would be perfect and everyone would love him. Fingers crossed. Fellow crooner Harry Connick Jr. is also rumored to be in the running to replace Simon Cowell. Harry would be good but he and Ellen fight too much and that could be a big problem. I vote for Chris. A good way to describe Chris Isaak for those of you who don't know him, he's a cross between Elvis and Ricky Nelson.

Get to know him better. Watch and listen to 19 of his music videos here.

I'm A Woman Who Runs On Coffee

This certainly holds true for me.
"Behind every successful woman is a substantial amount of coffee."
I used yesterday's free font for the quotation marks. Like it?
I've had two large mugs of coffee this morning and I'm feeling powerful!

Georgian House in New Jersey's Horse Country



In the Georgian Fashion A Family Builds a Horse Country Home That Savors the Past.

The homeowners wanted a house that looked as if it had been there for 150 years, but they didn’t want 150-year-old problems.

One and one make two. Right? Well, not necessarily. If you really work well with your interior designer, one and one make three. The architect and the designer both have their own thoughts, and they both bring their own intelligence to the project. If you can combine the two of them, there’s a bonus. The math makes perfect sense to me!
