The Bible is very easy to understand. But we Christians are a bunch of scheming swindlers. We pretend to be unable to understand it because we know very well that the minute we understand we are obliged to act accordingly. —Soren Kierkegaard

Taylor HicksDang. American Idol is on again, and the message boards are out of control. Over a quarter of a million posts.

Taylor Hicks is bringing down the house, and has a fan club that would fill a stadium. Check out this thread on the message board:

Yes, that’s 2,221 pages of posts on this one thread. It’s changing so fast my screenshots are out of date already.

So how many posts is that?

Dang. Over 44,500 and counting. On one message board thread. They have some serious Windows Server geeks keeping this thing running.

UPDATE: Chris Daughtry kicked butt again with Fuel’s “Hemorrhage,” which he belted out in great rock fashion. His stage presence is unparalleled among the other contestants, and I think he’s going to go all the way. Gotta love the Safeway-logo-shaped sideburns.
