Who nailed it???

EVERY SINGLE ONE of my predictions was right, including all those I didn't post, including Billy Talent for rock album of the year, and Nelly Furtado for pop album of the year (she gt everything she was nominated for... no surprise.)

I mean, not all my hopefuls won, but honestly, I didn't expect them to. The music industry looks at things differently than I do, and really, it's so predictable...

On another topic, I love winter weather. When it stays in winter. This is just sad.

Wow, that's pretty impressive. :D You need to do AI predictions and see if you do as well with them.

Yeah, the weather right now is nasty.

I love the weather right now! Finally, some clean snow. It made me very happy, actually.

I'm just tired of winter.

My AI predictions aren't that accurate, but I'll give them a shot. My Canadian Idol predictions though - I'm generally quite amazing at those. :P

Don't predict Sanjaya's gonna leave. His following of rabid thirteen-year-olds will likely all vote a million times and keep him in :)

Yeah, they did keep him in last night. I've never predicted that he would be the one leaving, but I've still managed to get it wrong somehow. :P

I just don't bother predicting American Idol. I'm not American - how can I possibly understand the way they vote???
Haha

Lol, lots of people would get annoyed at me for saying this, but IMO there's really no difference between Canadians and Americans, and hardly any difference between America and Canada. There are a few differences in government and mannerisms and such, but they're not really important. There are the same differences between states and provinces; it's just a regional thing. The only differences are the sterotypes Americans and Canadians have of each other.

At least, that's what I think. Feel free to disagree with me all you want. :D

I think I should get some sort of "longest comments" award, haha.

Erin said...

We definitely should. My comments are often longer than my blogs :P

I think that yeah, for the most part, there are more similarities than differences between Americans and Canadians. After all, we do all come from the same place. The differences are very widespread generalizations. Not everyone falls into every generalization, but there's enough that it's still usually somewhat accurate.

For example, the way Americans view America differs from how Canadians view Canada.

Also, the music industry actually is somewhat different, which is why I made the comment about AI that I did. It wasn't to slight Americans at all.
