Do they come with gum? 'Cause that's something I'd like to blow

Posted on 17 March, 2009 | Senor Wences

The latest act of insatiable greed-lust by Fremantle Media is a line of trading cards featuring pictures of Idols past and present, as well as the ugly mugs of our judges. I'd stick those under my wobbly coffee table leg. The line of nearly 140 cards, due to debut next month, will include an image of Normund Gentle doppelganger Nick Mitchell, but the press information does not specifically mention whether Normund himself will be included in the rogues' gallery of Idol winners and also-rans. I wonder if they accidentally left out Taylor Hicks?

To see Paula's card, in which more airbrushing has taken place than on a restored '66 Corvette's chassis, click away:

LOL! Senor Wences, that last line was classic!

I have a better addition to the vast collection American Idol paraphernalia: American Idol toilet paper. Each square will have the face of a judge or former contestant (excluding Normund/Nick, of course). Since I am so embittered about Normund's departure, I think this is the only product that I would purchase.

Oh dear. Paula looks more glazed over than Blanche after a wild night at the Rusty Anchor.
