His and Hers: Idol ambitions  

His and Hers is a weekly discussion of a question or topic relating to marriage. On Friday, my wife and I each write our thoughts on the week's topic. I invite others to do the same with their spouses as an exercise in celebrating marriage. This week's question is:

1) If you were to audition for American Idol, what song would you sing?
2)
How would the judges react?

Mrs. Happy's response

  1. Mariah Carey's Vision of Love
  2. Simon: "That was atrocious. Mariah Carey you are not."
    Paula: "You don't really have the range for this song. It wasn't terrible, but I don't think you're cut out for this."
    Randy: "Yeah. Don't quit your day job."

Curt's response

  1. George Michael's Faith
  2. Randy: "Uh, what do you think, Paula?"
    Paula: "Curt, I think maybe you need to focus your efforts on other things."
    Simon: (through barely stifled laughter) "If awfulness and lack of talent could create good feelings, I would be experiencing my own personal Nirvana right now. Since they don't, however, please just go away."
