Last night my predictions were correct, so I think I'll quit while I'm ahead! Tonight's Talent line up is filled with previous award-winners; opera divas bookend the flight, with a unique instrumentalist, great Broadway singer and a couple solid dancers in between! On the other hand, only one Swimsuit competitor was an award winner this year, but keep in mind, not all locals give Swimsuit awards. Given Heather Wells' USA experience and Sophia's ultra toned body, I think Katie C. could have a run for her money!

I'm headed to work and will be back around 8 Ohio time, so no, I'm not going to pay for half a webcast... but I will post results and pictures as soon as they're available.
