• Is Adam Lambert done creeping us out yet?

  —News and Opinion

We're also trying to figure out if our parents would have covered our eyes to protect us from seeing the performance aired on ABC last night. Check out the screeching, um, singing for as long as you' [...]

  Adam Lambert was the final performance of the American Music Awards on Sunday night.

  One of the worst things about either side of the blogosphere is the echo chamber effect.  Both sides are guilty of it.  If some 'leader' of either side notices something or says something they believe is clever, it will be parroted all throughout cyberspace.

  It gets old, quick in my opinion.
