Dear John:
Thank you for playing on American Idol. We hope your time with us has been worthwhile. Please remove the gel from your hair and return from whence you came, where you are now likely the coolest kid at your school. We hope this works well for you during prom.

We wish you the best as possibly the nicest contestant ever on American Idol.

Sincerely,
The Alliance

PS: Thank you, America, for doing the right thing.

PPS: The rhythm actually did get me this morning as I dug out my Gloria Estefan Greatest Hits CD and listened to it while getting ready for work. It followed me to the car, too. Today I may only speak in Gloria Estefan phrases. Why? Because there's always tomorrow.
