Love the party pics...looks like they had a great time and I would love to bowl with Clay! Kim

Good Morning Everyone, Treenuts You are me! I love Dick Van Dyke and Andy Griffith; I probably watch either one of those shows every night! 5 Days until Clay is presenting Tyra with her GLAAD Award! 8 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 16 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! 52 Days until Clay is Rockin' 30 Rock! Everyone have a great day! Kim

I also love Two and A Half Men and Big Bang Theory; Monday night is a great night for Comedy. MASH was great the first few years, but then it started to get a little preachy and heavy-handed and sort of became "The Alan Alda Show"...didn't like it so much near the end. Kim

Oh yes, I remember running home to watch Dark Shadows too! My husband started watching Edge of Night when it was on at 9:00 in the morning...he was working nights and would get home in time to watch and got hooked! Eventually, I got into it too and he started taping it for me...I would get home from work and we would watch Edge of Night and All My Children. We had such an exciting life for newlyweds!, LOL! Kim

Kim Oops...now the original poster has posted a retraction...hope nobody choked on their "EEEEE's (turned out to be a game of telephone...someone speculated on CV and it got passed around as truth)

Oh Couchie That is a hard one! I don't watch a lot of network TV now, so I am afraid nothing very relevant. 1. All My Children - I know; a soap opera, go ahead everyone and roll your eyes! I watched that show religiously for 30 years...from the time I was 13; after I was married...it was my one hour of "me time" when my kids were little...I would put them down for naps and have that hour to myself...It was nice to get lost in a little fantasy in between bottles, diapers and the general chaos that 4 kids in 6 years bring. Stopped watching about 5 years ago when the plotlines became so outrageous, even I couldn't suspend belief. 2. Bonanza This was a staple in our house on Sunday nights and I had a huge crush on Michael Landon. Watched all 14 years and I remember how shocking it was when Dan Blocker died. Still watch the re-runs 3. Frasier I simply love this show...I think the humor is so witty and I love DHP...again still watch the re-runs every night. It makes me laugh out loud. Kim

I honestly don't see any purpose for Clay to be on AI this year...totally agree with Jamar..no CD or single to promote (don't think he will be doing any promotion for BOCA)...can't see him being on the show just to promote his guest appearances and not sing. I suppose he could be on as a mentor as some others have done, but that just does not interest me. Kim

Good Morning Everyone, 6 Days until Clay is presenting Tyra with her GLAAD award! 9 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 17 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! 53 Days until Clay is Rockin' 30 Rock! Everyone have a great day! Kim

Luckiest1 Piper is adorable...congratulations! Kim

Good Morning Everyone: I met my husband on a blind date and we went bowling; I had not bowled much before that and I think my first game I bowled a 35! We had a good laugh over that and apparently he didn't hold it against me because we have been married for 27 years. We have been bowling pretty much our whole married life on leagues and even though my average is only 127, I still have a good game now and then. I have bowled one 200 game; but the best is those rare times when I actually beat hubby! 7 Days until Clay presents Tyra with her GLAAD Award! 10 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 18 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! 54 Days until Clay is Rockin' 30 Rock!

Question for all my Library peeps...we are considering changing over to the Colibri book processing system, wonder if anyone here uses it in their libraries and if so...what do you think. We had a salesman come out today and demonstrate and moi who hates any kind of change in routine, was actually impressed: http://www.colibriusa.com/demo.php I love BSOB! Have the montage with him reading from LTS on my computer and I will watch that all year along!

they sell 1200 thread count sheets at Target? Oh see I am an idoit I thought that was a friend of the first person who posted it. I noticed the bag of chips more than the basketball. Lays you can't just have one. I noticed the chips too because my husband works for Frito-Lay and any purchase of chips means job security! I did notice Clay too! Kim

Tried to reply twice and lost both posts...let me just say I concur with the Luckiest1 on the Stephen King movies; nice to see BF out spending some money...guess now that he is a family man he needs a family car. Reed is a fine looking man; they make a very attractive couple. Kim

Good Morning Everyone, 4 Days until The First Day of Spring! 12 Days until Clay is presenting Tyra with her GLAAD award! 15 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 23 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! Everyone have a great day! Kim

Good Morning Everyone, "Go Ahead, Make My Day" - Clint Eastwood, Dirty Harry "What we have here is a failure to communicate" - Dub Tayler, Cool Hand Luke "I'll get you my pretty and your little dog too!"- Wicked Witch, Wizard if Oz Those are the only ones I could think of off the top of my head; I know, pretty well known, but I am not a big movie person. I chose the OZ one because I am huge fan hence my screenname of Ozfan4 at the OFC. 5 Days until The First Day of Spring! 13 Days until Clay is presenting Tyra with her GLAAD award! 16 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 24 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! Everyone have a great day! Kim

I think in this fandom there are usually two modes of response to any given situation; the emotional one and the logical one...I try very hard to always base my opinions on logic and what makes sense to me. But there are times when I admit going to for the emotional response...when the baby news surfaced...I was one who absolutely thought it was possible that Jaymes and Clay could have had a romantic relationship and did not automatically assume that it meant Clay was gay. It just made perfect sense to me that two people who had worked as closely as they had for a couple of years and were good friends would have that relationship morph into a romantic one. Of course, a lot of people thought I was full of crap and that opinion bordered on "fan fic", but I like to look at all possibilities. And sometimes there is enough factual evidence to go in either direction, the logical response or the emotional. Sometimes though; it seems like for some fans the emotional response...as what we saw in 2006, completely overrides any common sense approach. That was probably the worst time on the boards for me because I just don't deal well with over-reaction and I do there is a tendency of some to over-react to every perceived slight, joke, etc. to Clay. What I love about this board is that there is so much logic and common sense here and people aren't over-reacting everytime Jay Leno tells a Clay joke or Clay does something "out of character" according to some or his career is not going according to the plan of so many of the resident "experts". It is a fun place to be and a definite oasis amidst the daily drama that is the "Clay Fandom". Although to be fair, now that we have news to look forward; there does seem to be less angst out there and a more relaxed atmosphere. Hope it continues after we hear what Clay's future plans are.

There is just something obscene about that sentence. Care to explain, because I don't get it? Kim

Your kitchen; my living room...hubby started taking down the paneling today...going to be a long project since he is doing it himself and can only really work on week-ends; so I am prepared to be living in a mess for a while. Plus in two weeks we are getting my daughter's dog for a week while she is on vacation...so...two dogs and a torn apart front room...going to be a bit crazy! Happy Birthday Gibby; I thought 50 was going to be hard birthday for me; but surprisingly it wasn't...heading for 52 in Sept....Have a wonderful day! Kim

Good Morning Everyone, 6 Days until The First Day of Spring! 14 Days until Clay is Presenting Tyra with her GLAAD Award! 17 Days until Playlist: The Very Best of Clay Aiken is available! 25 Days until Judge Aiken is holding Court on ANTM! Everyone have a great day! Kim
