A Dose of Reality: Dancing With the Stars: Season 6 - Week 9May 13, 2008 - By Sheila Franklin

Music Review: Gladys Hardy, "I Love Jesus, But I Drink a Little"May 12, 2008 - By R.J. Carter
This comedy CD is just the thing for anyone who's ever had a grandma. In fact, if you play this for your grandma, you may find yourself laughing while grandma merely shakes her head in agreement with the sage advice (all while wondering what it is you seem to find so funny).

A Dose of Reality: American Idol 7: Top 3 Power RankingsMay 12, 2008 - By Doug DeBolt

Music Review: Derek Webb & Sandra McCracken, "Ampersand" EPMay 9, 2008 - By R.J. Carter
Musically beautiful, lyrically cryptic, Ampersand is listenable, but becomes elevator music the harder you try to listen to it -- like trying to put your finger on a bead of mercury.

DVD Review: A Touch of Frost - Season 13: Endangered SpeciesMay 9, 2008 - By R.J. Carter

Book Review: What to Do About Alice?May 8, 2008 - By R.J. Carter
In an age where most grade school students cannot name more than a handful of U.S. presidents (let alone the current one), it seems unlikely that any would remember a president's child, nor show any interest in learning about one. If that's the case, then more's the pity, because Alice Roosevelt, the wild-child daughter of Rough Rider Teddy Roosevelt, is quite the character worth learning about.

A Dose of Reality: American Idol 7: Top 4 ResultsMay 8, 2008 - By Doug DeBolt

A Dose of Reality: American Idol 7: The Top 4 Try to Avoid the Hall of ShameMay 7, 2008 - By Doug DeBolt
