I thought they over reacted about this. I say be careful all the time. Guess city folk don't speak friendly chat.

Looks like 'Idol' got a little lost in translation.
During the Louisville auditions, the show introduced Mark Mudd, who looked like a 'Deliverance' extra and claimed to have "almost died" five times. He also claimed to be a descendent of Dr. Samuel Mudd, who was convicted of helping John Wilkes Booth (the doc had treated his broken leg after Booth assassinated Lincoln).
Anyway, after being rejected decidedly by the judges, Mark Mudd departed with the phrase "be careful," which Paula Abdul took as a threat.
But now the show has issued an apology for misinterpreting a "regional greeting."
