Quote:WHATABOUTTAYLORHICKS?!? Yes, if you have watched any local television in the last few weeks, you know that the American Idol Season 5 winner, the silver fox of the “Soul Patrol,” Taylor Hicks, was cast in the traditional “Oh, hey, it’s that guy” musical cameo role of Teen Angel. Thank God a friend more familiar with the show’s history clued me in on the fact that the role is traditionally reserved for a ridiculous piece of stunt casting; otherwise, I would have sat through the entire first half asking “Ok, where the hell is he?,” followed up with an indignant “Wait, that’s it?” It’s true — Hicks is in the play for about seven minutes. But … he’s … really awesome in it. I admit I was expecting a “Hey, weren’t you supposed to sell a lot of records?” trainwreck, but the man was hilariously phenomenal, even making some playful jabs at his quasi-celebrity status. FAIR PLAY, HICKS.

I'd like to believe Hicks is much, much more than a "seven minute man".

Popcicle sticks and duct tape?

You're a wild woman Laur. I think you'd wear him out and he'd explode before a whole hour.
