FINAL 10...WEEK #3...Tuesday, March 27, 2007
WEEK #3: Ha Wen Neyu is uneasy tonight in the great hunting ground. You ask me: "Who is Ha Wen Neyu?"
Do you know why the native American Indians (and possibly other people of Indian descent) did not cut their hair until they were "civilized" or "colonized" by christians (especially the men)?
The Indians believed that their "Creator" gave them an "official stamp" denoting them as human beings. The "Creator" gave them uniquely human hair upon their heads. Their hair, as a natural part of the gift of a healthy human body, was to grow long symbolizing their pride and most importantly, their connection to the "Creator." It was said that the longer a person's hair, the stronger their connection to the "Creator" and to their original Native Ways.
Indians could not take their "Creator" into battle with them because this may involve killing another human being and this would be an evil act and this would be against the teachings of the "Creator." No man or woman has the right to end the life of another human being. Yet times arise when battle is necessary.
For the purposes of this instructive example, I will use the Mohawk Indians (and they were members of the Iroquois Confederacy which included six tribes).
Before battle, the Mohawk warriors were famous for shaving off their hair along the sides and only leaving a strip of hair in the middle. After the battle was over, the warrior would let his hair grow back. If he failed to let his hair grow back, then the tribe knew that his mind was not clear and good and it symbolized that he had a mind of violence and twisted thinking. The "Great Spirit" of the Mowhawk's is named Ha Wen Neyu. Their "Creator" is named Shonkwaiatison.
This evening on American Idol, contestant #4, long haired Sanjaya Malakar, of Indian descent (not native American), wore his hair in a Mohawk fashioned hairdo...COWABUNGA DUDE!
I know this is a singing competition, but all season Sanjaya has been the chatter of the tabloids, blogs, television shows, etc. "Why is he still here?" "He can't sing!"
My prediction...He's safe again...and this week...No one will care...Everyone is still laughing. Personally, I can't wait until next week. Go Hula Hoop. In India, do the lower classes wipe their arses with their right hand or their left?
Other Competitors: As usual, I will ignore everything that Randy and Paula said. However, Paula appeared to be sober this evening and on her best behavior. Why?
#1 Lakisha Jones...She sung an upbeat song by Donna Summers "Last Dance" and Simon thought it was a "Great Vocal." I thought she looked great and did very well. I thought she sung better than Melinda tonight, but she won't be the top vote getter because Melinda wins it every week.
#2 Chris Sligh...He sung the song "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic." No magic tonight for Chris. As I have been saying for the past several weeks. He is not improving and looking fatter and fatter. His make up is starting to make him appear ghost like to me and almost feminine. I really liked him in the beginning and now I can't wait for him to be gone. I hope it is tomorrow, but one of the girls was really bad also. He is a really nice guy, but just doesn't do well any longer. Simon said that it was "a mess all over the place and it didn't feel right." I think he was being kind.
#3 Gina Glocksen from Naperville, Illinois where my sister lives... You can't help but like Gina. Simon said: "Not just one of your best performances tonight...YOUR BEST PERFORMANCE" Simon really likes Gina, but realistically she doesn't have a chance against the Fab 3. However, she is safe and hopefully will be around for a few more weeks.
#4 Sanjaya Malakar...Mohawk hairdo...Great look...Should be very safe.
#5 Haley Scarnato...I think the dress was not sexy enough. She has no chance unless she takes off her clothes. That simple. Miss USA was crowned this past weekend and I really thought that Haley would come out in a bathing suit singing a beach song. She didn't. She is in big trouble. She has surprised me before. I think she is in the bottom two with Chris Sligh...Simon said: "Sweet but forgetable, nothing to remember...too safe. Have to do better than that." (Translation..."I liked the black dress, your legs looked good, but you covered your other assets too much.")
#6 Phil Stacey...He sung "Every Breath You Take" by the Police and he did very well and Simon told him "Very Good" and Simon appeared to be very pleased with Phil's performance and his competitive attitude this evening and he told him so.
#7 Melinda Doolittle...Simon told her that she was "Vocally outstanding" but he "hated her outfit."...Some of you may have noticed the curl in her hair that helped show a bit more of her neck. Girlfriend says that was an improvement, but they need to do more. As usual, she did very well and should be top vote getter on Dial Idol.
#8 Blake Lewis...He sung a very slow song and sung it well. It was boring to us and Simon agreed and told Blake it was a "bit boring", but Simon also told Blake that he was the best guy in the competition. Paula drooled...What's new? The guy had pants on.
#9 Jordin Sparks...She sung an upbeat song. Her outfit looked a bit large on her because she is a big girl. Standing next to Ryan she is a GIANT. She is refreshing and happy and she can really sing. Simon said she is the "most improved." However, I must caution that the final shot of her next to Ryan was not a pleasant photo. She looked like a large gray elephant next to Ryan and her dancing while she was singing was pressured and not good. She should not be choosing dance numbers if she can't dance.
#10 Chris Richardson...He sung "Don't Speak" and Simon thought that his vocals were not good at all and told Chris to work on his vocals. Paula drooled and disagreed...Again, he had pants on.
Dial Idol results at midnight show Chris Sligh in last place and Jordin and Haley down at the bottom just mere tenths of a point away from him. Chris Richardson is in second place ahead of Lakisha and you may be pleased to hear that Sanjaya is in 4th place just barely ahead of Gina; however the bottom 3 are solidly there right now with several hours to go. Dial Idol does not include text messages and Dial Idol has not been very accurate this year. However, Sanjaya eats Dial Idol for breakfast and lunch and spits them out before dinner. Keep in mind, Michael Jackson may still be hiding in his body (smile).
