That's Why They Call Me "Amazing"

If you read yesterday's post, you know that I made several predictions about last night's American Idol finale. Well, folks, I don't like to brag, but every single prediction was right on target.

I'm sure that some angry readers are now saying, "Hey, wait just a minute, pal! You predicted that David Archuleta would win last night, and he didn't win, so what's up with that, Mister Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire?!"

I can certainly understand such reactions, but I have a good excuse . . .um . . . uh . . . I mean I have a reasonable explanation. Yesterday, when I was writing my post, I was extremely tired and worn out from a stressful day of being the Amazing Markimus. It's not easy being me, and sometimes the job takes its toll. Anyway, in my weary state, I apparently got my days confused. Everybody does it once in awhile. You just momentarily forget which day it is. Perhaps you think it's Monday when it's actually Tuesday. Or you think it's Friday when it's actually Thursday. Or you think it's Wednesday when it's actually October. Whatever the case, it happens to all of us. And that's exactly what happened to me yesterday. When I predicted that Archuleta would win American Idol, I thought it was Opposite Day.

I hope that clears up your confusion.
