1. Sports Night (I missed that show for a long time after it was cancelled)

2. Two and a Half Men (I know, but it makes me laugh out loud)

3. The Office (not so much recently, though)

Didn't Clay say something last Spring about Idol? Something in that blog that wasn't a blog, or maybe it was a blog, I don't remember.... but when he was addressing the fans about the reception of OMWH, promotion, radio, etc. Didn't he say something (and please don't hold me responsible for accuracy here, this is a sincere question) along the lines of .... why wouldn't he want to be on the top rated show in the country or something along those lines?

I don't know what he thinks or what he wants, how he makes his decisions, or what is most likely to happen/not happen. But I know what I think, and I would love it if he were on AI this season or any season.

Edited a few times just because Jamar is here, and I know she'd appreciate it..... and it's still not worded clearly. Oy.

No offense but I was surprised that there was a bid on the Scott card. He wasn't a very popular contestant.

He was my favorite that year!!!!!!!!

Mine, too. Looks like there are a few of us, and here I thought I was All Alone. (TM King Arthur - yes, the Spam references continue to invade my brain).

I'm watching AI and still enjoying it. There are some interesting voices there this season.

One of the syllables in my Clay Syllables Collection, 'yon,' comes from that performance. I loved the whole thing!

I think Clay is a brave and wonderful man. I am so proud of him.

Hear Hear (or is it Here Here?). Whichever...... I couldn't agree more!

Ah, Careless Whisper...... I LOVE that song. It is a film all by itself in my head.

Doesn't Clay look CUTE ?

Well, I don't think you can discount the fact that people do tend to believe exactly what they want to believe. And they tend to take in information from sources that support their beliefs. It's why people with a conservative political bent get their news from Rush Limbaugh & Bill O'Reilly and not Keith Olberman. It's why college educated people can convince themselves that the Holocaust never happened. It's why I find discussing politics and religion with many people a waste of time.

I think, for some fans, the idea of being "friends" with Clay outweighs other information. They would rather believe they are close to him than believe anything else ... so they do.

I suppose there is a lot of truth in what you say, JaMar, but I believe that people can open their minds to information that doesn't fit their belief system. Rational people, with a desire to explore ideas, that is.

As for that label 'Clay Aiken'.... oy, poor guy doesn't even own it, it seems sometimes. If I somehow received a contact from 'Clay Aiken,' I think I'd be beyond skeptical...even if it were something like a contest and we knew he was going to contact someone. I think unless I saw him in the flesh, I'd really have a hard time believing it was him. Under stress, I go straight to paranoia. I suppose that opposite extreme isn't any healthier, though.

I wanted Ricky to make it through.

I saw Milk last night.......great movie. Really well done. Wonderful acting. Go see it if you can (or rent the DVD when it comes out in March).

I saw it a while ago and agree - great movie!

My sister and I were just talking about this list the other day . She calls it her "travel bucket list".

Hers had Italy on it and mine featured a lot of Canada. How about everyone else?

Iceland. There are other places I know I'll get to first, but that has been on my list for about 5 years. I want to see the flight of the puffins. And swim in the hotsprings.

Hmmmm - I am seeing relatively cheap fares from Houston to places like London, Paris and Amsterdam - antsy feet are beginning to be felt!

I saw flights from Philadelphia to Europe for under $300 - US Air. I can't go in early May, however, as I'll be in the Carribbean. On the beach. Under a thatched hut. In the lazy river. Anywhere that takes no effort. Have fun, though!

BTW, written qualification tests will be in everybody's inbox by morning!

I ain't takin' no test! I'm stubborn that way. And lazy, too. Can't we just submit our IQ scores with the proper documentation? All 3 digits? In the correct order?

Anna, I left 2 apples on Couchie's desk. And they were Honey Crisps

This board used to be filled with a bunch of smart ladies. I miss them.

:o

canuck at CV lightened it even more. Bye, Merle.....

ding ding ding Exactly.

That made me laugh out loud, Jamar!

As for those lyrics - lyrics out of context don't mean much to me. But, then, I don't enjoy reading poetry either. I'd need to listen to the song to have any sense of what the lyrics mean. What song is it?

Pitchers and catchers -- Yay!!!

Anna

What is exactly happening in your post?

Um...Warning: Vodka is flammable?

Maybe?

No, I've got it! Barry Manilow inflames her senses so much that she must get drunk to overcome her passion?

Um...no?

Hmm...Okay, okay...OLDIES make her dance like a man with his head on fire and remind her of those good old days when sparkly disco balls somehow made booze taste better?

The fiery man is running to a 3/4 tempo...maybe she's suggesting Clay sing waltzes. Lots of waltzes. Booze optional.

I dunno.

heh

She's crazed and therefore needs a drink?

During the SRHP or DCAT in Philadelphia, there was a separator low wall between the first 5,0r 6or 10 rows and the rest of the facility. Clay walked around it at least twice. Since we had 2nd row seats we had to turn 360 o to watch him sing. Some people reached up for him but poor Jerome was right there running around the place.

That's right! I forgot all about that one! So imagine that on a much larger scale... it was really cool. I mean we were 22 rows back - not bad seats at all but at various points, we felt like we were in the second/third row because the guys were so close! It was way cool and made the experience all that much more fun!

that was fabulous!! I was in the first row behind that catwalk when he walked around it. Wooooooooo Hooooooooo!!!

I was there, too, with good seats that became amazing seats for the period of time Clay was walking on that divider that wasn't meant to be a catwalk. What a treat that was! The whole concert was just great. After all, Clay became a man that night.

I also do not get Radiohead.

They are one of my favorite bands of all time. I have never seen them live, but would love to. They're coming to my area in August.

I want the t-shirt! Where can I get one?

I might even wear one of those! The addition of chacha's fan of another type would provide an interesting twist.

Love the thread title! We need to immortalize it somehow.

OMG He is sooooo cute!

Don't you mean cute ?

He sure is. Those are some great pictures, liney.

I went to see Milk with Sean Penn yesterday, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has not seen it.

I saw it, too, and second your recommendation. I've only seen 2 of the Best Picture nominees (Milk and Slumdog Millionaire), and Milk would get my vote.

I'm enjoying the cheesy song discussion. I generally don't enjoy cheesy songs, and Clay has performed plenty, but you know, there's Velveeta and then there's a triple creme Boursault. Clay is primo cheese.

Yay, Smitten! :04:

I think I am the only person I know who has never seen any of the Star Wars!

You're not alone. I've never seen any of them, either. But then, I've never seen more than 2 minutes of an episode of Star Trek either. Were there Star Trek movies?

Worst concert I ever saw: Rockstar Supernova. Why did I go to that anyway? I think I'll blame cagney.

Clay's going to be on my TV? Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

Mine, too!

Clay's influences? I think he just likes to SING! Works for me.

let's celebrate what's good about him

Embrace the goo!

There are concert DVDs? O'fishal ones? :o
