  1. Well, its after midnight here on the east coast and since I will be on a plane in the morning, I just wanted to take this opportunity to wish a

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

    to a Clay friend who has become one of my most treasured real life friends, the amazing and smutty MUSKI!!

    :00003653: :bday2: :7254:

    I am glad I will be able to celebrate with you and our boyfriend!! See you later, my friend! :F_05BL17blowkiss:

    How did I not know it was Muski's birthday??

    I hope you, muski , will get inspired to write another fantastic fanfic!!

    :7252:

    :hugs-1::rainbowsmile::hugs-1:

    eta: HAPPY TRAILS TO ALL WHO ARE TRAVELING!!!

  2. OMG - 24 hours from now we will know a lot more than we know now.

    Such as - did the downpour stop?

    what did Clay sing?

    how long did the show last?

    did the cellcerters live up to their press?? *g*

    what is the "walk down memory lane"??

    Well - here is the last installment of my contribution to "A Walk Down Memory Lane" per se, for the next 5-6 weeks...

    when my site becomes devoted to all matters that are concert. *g*

    Can't wait to see what Clay has in mind!!!

    eta: OK - just how do we know there will be tour merchandise???

  3. I forgot all about the concert for Diana today, and I don't get VH1 anyways. Maybe I can catch any highlights on YouTube tomorrow (hopefully!)

    Apparently they are streaming on VH1.com.

    Elton John just came on. :)

    luckiest - the highlights are on tonight on NBC (I think) at 8PM (eastern)

    Couchie...I've never done any Harry Potter stuff either. WooT, there are two of us in the wide world.

    :allgood:

    Awesome trip your kids are on Chach! I'm jellus!

    YSRN - you and Couchie are in for a treat - that is, is you would pick up even the first Harry Potter book. It's really short and it'll take you about a day to read it. Then you'll know. And yes - Voldemort is the "He Who Must Not Be Named" extra-bad-evil-wizard-who-wants-to-rule-the-world.

    I wish I had done something like Ecuador when I was younger!! I'm jellus too! I don't even track butterflies in my yard!! :F_05BL17blowkiss:

  4. Thanks everyone for the well wishes for the wandering warriors....... :RedGuy:

    It's not the bears that scare me tho, apparently they are very shy, and are apt to run away.... it's the high altitude, rain forest environment, and various other things like camping out in the mud and stuff. But you're right - I am extremely proud of them!!

    I decided to make it clickable - this leads to a huge file suitable for putting on a shirt!

    btw - the Harry Potter movie is sort of more like next week - the 11th :medium-smiley-070:

    THREE MORE DAYS!!!

    :Tour3: ..... :Tour3: ..... :Tour3:..... :Tour3:..... :Tour3:

  5. I've been trying to think of some songs to put down to join in and play this little game.

    First I had to go back and look up the rules. Then I had to go and order my DCAT t-shirts... (I got scoop-neck plus size)

    While I was doing that I decided to order a Harry Potter shirt too, since next week the movie comes out!

    We bought tix to the IMax theatre near here to see it on Thursday! I'm so excited!

    Here's what I came up with - if anyone is interested in having the file for your own shirt - let me know!

    dieVdie-sm.jpg

    I made it with a transparent background, but with the white letters, I put the black behind it so you can see it! I made one on a black shirt.

    Now I have to find a quiet time to think about the set list for Frisco.

    I've had this vision of him coming out singing "Moon River" - but what I've really wanted him to sing is "Somebody To Love" - but that is not necessarily an orchestra piece.

    My brain is still fried from all the stress of the past few weeks (and days!).

  6. NEWS BULLEITN!

    My two daughters spent the night in Miami - American Airlines cancelled the flight and put them up in the Hilton. I told them it will be the last really good bed they get for awhile!! :cryingwlaughter:

    They are boarding a non-stop flight to Quito any minute now. so they are OK for the present!

    Cha Cha..I'm curious..are your daughters going to Ecuador for vacation for something educational?

    They are going to track the Andean bears in the Andean mountains as part of a conservation project. Apparently most of the bears have already been tagged and they'll have an electronic locating device, sort of like the contestants used on the Amazing Race that one time this past season. We'll see what they actually end up doing! They might have to build fences to keep the bears out of the natives' corn fields!!

    Here's the website: http://www.andeanbear.org/

    Click on Photo Gallery and Volunteer Living to see some awesome photos!

    I'm glad I'll have the DCAT to keep me busy while they're gone!

    Thanks to clazorback and YSRN for the advice on the shirts!!

  8. OK - thanks clazorback!!

    But here's another stoopid question:

    How do you find the FCA/DCAT shirts from there? That's what I really need!!

    ((((chacha)))) I can imagine how nerve wracking that could be. But I'm sure they got another flight, just had to wait a little longer.

    Thanks ansa....... the part that bothers me about them getting another flight was that the next change was in Panama City and I heard them say that there are only a couple flights from PC to Quito, so I am hoping they didn't have to spend the night inthe PC airport. It's a Mom thing, I can't settle my nerves until I know how things went!

    :F_05BL17blowkiss: will keep you posted!

  9. Oops! Looks like I didn't read back enough pages....I missed seeing a couple other birthdays today!

    Happy Birthday to Georgiaclay and Totally!

    Picture1364.gif

    cool graphics...can we add it please couchie...hee

    I totally missed all the birthdays in the past couple weeks - been too busy!!!

    HAPPY HAPPY TO ALL I'VE MISSED! :F_05BL17blowkiss:

    UPDATE on the Ecuadorian travelers:

    I left them in the security line yesterday (which was moving fairly fast) after standing in the check-in line for almost 2 hours.

    It was past boarding time, but the flight was delayed...........

    When I checked from home it was 2½ hours delayed which meant they missed their connection in Miami.......

    SO............. they are out there somewhere, but I haven't heard where....... :scream:

    They packed no cell phones but promised to send email from Quito when they arrive.....

    :fca:

    On a lighter note - I received my pins yesterday - they are WONDERFUL!! Thanks to all for making them!

  10. As promised - here is the second half of the JBT - my favorite tour to date!!

    WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE PART FOUR

    ~~~~~~~~~

    SO......... I read Clay's blog and went immediately to itunes.... any more info about when the interview will be available?

    Back to resting mode... I am worn out from all the family activity and stress of putting D#1&2 on a plane for Ecuador today!

    BTW - I'll be listening to a cellcert Wednesday night if all goes as planned. I hope to update my website with a play list and notes during the concert... stay tuned!!!

    :TourExcite: :DoClay: :F_05BL17blowkiss: :Tour3: :lilredani:

  11. Caught up?? What's that???

    I have been busy with family stuff for what seems like months, and have barely been able to keep up on the blogs and various other happenings (whatever they are...*g*)

    I did have a little time to do some stuff on my website tho...

    In case you haven't seen it... I decided to take a little walk down memory lane with Clay......

    MEMORY LANE pt 1

    MEMORY LANE pt 2

    MEMORY LANE pt 3

    Enjoy!

    I loved his latest blog!! I am excited knowing he is excited! I can't wait to see what his "classic project" turns out to be!!

  12. Jeeeeez guys - you're KILLIN me!! :DoClay:

    I wanna play but I have approx 4.5 hours before I have to wake up and drive to NC.

    I have about 25 unread pages in this thread alone. I just scrolled quickly thru the last

    10 pages -- I have to admit a few of those photos

    KILLED ME DEAD!!!

    Therefore I am speaking to you from BEYOND THE GRAVE.......dead.gif

    I haven't read all the posts but hopefully next week I can catch up -

    when my two oldest offspring are safely in Ecuador. I say safely and am using the term loosely...

    my fingers and toes and everything that crosses will be crossed. We will now bow our heads in prayer.... :F_05BL17blowkiss:

    :hugs-1: To all who need them.... I know I need all I can get right now!!!

    However......... I do have 6 hours of Clay music and 6 hours of Beatles music on my ipod for the all the road trips!!!!!!! :RedGuy:

  13. For artquest, cindilu, and muski and anyone else who wants to geek out on "The Last Unicorn," there are a whole sh*tload of videos on YouTube for you!!

    http://youtube.com/results?search_query=la...p;search=Search

    I was going to say we ordered the CD and movie from Amazon two days ago...and it was America who sang the songs. (except one that Mia Farrow sang) and........

    If you go to the Amazon page, scroll down, and click on the "Music Sampler" you can listen to a few seconds of each song. There are a lot of instrumentals too.

    And BTW - there were only 4 in stock when we ordered 2 the other night!!

    OK, now you've all peaked my interest. America? I love America! What is this movie - is it animated?

    luckiest - go to that YouTube link and you'll see all about it! Yes, it is an animated movie... it's a Rankin/Bass production and came out in 82.

    It is also a book, and I plan to read it NEXT, right after I finish "Lipstick Jungle" by Candace Bushnell. (which is pretty good)

    My daughter informs me that the book fleshes out the characters so much more than the movie, which is my experience with most movies and books.

    Here's a link to the book on Amazon. :F_05BL17blowkiss:

    luckiest - that Paul Page is high-tech flash or something - so maybe that's why it won't play at work. Hope you can get it at home! Make sure to ask him to tell a joke!!

    OT: Sure can't wait to see that Clay guy and hear him sing "Because You Loved Me" to meeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

    :DoClay: :F_05BL17blowkiss: :RedGuy::Thud: :Tour3: :TourExcite: :lilredani:

  15. I've been away from the boards for a couple days... I've been spending time with my girls...

    the two who are going to Ecuador at the end of the month... we've been studying Spanish...

    and customs... and shopping for hiking boots and sturdy bras... :RedGuy:

    Then we geeked out on "Dirty Dancing" one night, "Harry Potter" with Spanish subtitles... :lilredani:

    and "The Last Unicorn"...

    Yesterday another daughter informed us that "The Knight Bus has arrived..." so we went to a Library in Arlington

    and geeked out on the Knight Bus for a bit too!

    Play - what beach are you at? I might be going to the Outer Banks over the weekend!

    As you can see I have been busy with the family and haven't the slightest clue what all the Kelly hubbub is about....

    Clayedover - can you clue me in as well??? Thanks in advance!!

    I received my "Memory Almost Full" album in the mail yesterday. I have to admit it is packeaged in a very unique way!!

    OT: And I REALLY wish CLAY would do something like THIS:

    ASK PAUL A QUESTION

    This is so much fun!!!!!!! eta: ask Paul to tell a joke.... :cryingwlaughter:

    :TourExcite: :clap: :Tour3: :F_05BL17blowkiss: :DoClay:
