Oh and thank you too merrieeee! I just went back a few posts!

Hmmmmm...OK...zat's EZ. Thanks Tomatolady!!! Even Justclay should be able to do THAT.... Oh wait...nevermind...what am I THINKING? She can't even quote yet. Trying out the sub-script and superscript options Yeah and ya still can't follow quoting directions.

Just trying something. Nonebodies answered me re: how to stroke out typing, or if they did, I didn't see it, so I quoted Scarlett's post to see what she did. So I see that it's like quotes but with s instead of the word quote [ /s] Now is there a freakin' shorter way of doing it other than hitting the code button and taking out the word "code" and replacing it with "s"??? Aaaaaaaaaaaaand are there any other codes that work around here? Like can you embed youtubes?

I saved these to PB, so you're gonna have to look at them again! He's Alllllllllllllll Aloooooooooooooooooone. Guess he's done in LA huh, lol? And apparently he's making a pit-stop in NYC before heading back to NC! Gee...wonder whyyyyyyyyyy?

Haven't tried this yet but I'll say thanks in advance because this sounds like it will work for me! I have a couple of "non-clayfans" on my facebook page and was wondering about making 2 separate Facebook pages. I'll look at this tonight. Is there somewhere where we can post names of people wanting to be our friends when we don't recognize the name and say, "______ __________" wants to be my friend. Is it one of you guys?" I just got another request last night and don't recognize the name. Last name is the same as mine if that helps?

That clip is from when he was doing Hometown Connection in NC...he was maybe 19-20. Kim And the "larger interview" it comes from is actually a piece on Clay's Mom Faye. CBS This Morning did a week long thing saluting Moms -- I think this was in 2004. I'm looking to see if I can find the original piece.... Found it! From Clack Unlimited (please right click and save, no streaming please!): CBS Early Show: Mom Rocks! Ah...the Cher clip. That clip inspired some durty fanfic (not that I've read any of that or anything... :27: ) a few years back If anybody new to downloading is confuzzled...you do have to left click ldyjocelyn's link because it's just the index cuz I dutifully right clicked the link, which got me nowhere. Ya gotta left click and then when the CU page comes up you can pick a size MPEG or large wmv or small wmv and then left click on that folder and then when the file page come up, you right click on the file and select "save target as". *hands tribeca some worry beads and sits down beside her* I'll try to worry a little just so you won't be alone. Besides I enjoy holding the beads. ETA: I would've said fingering the beads but Muski would've pounced on that like anything. BTW, you do understand that we just smut for fun and have been doing it for years -- nothing meant, truly! (I'm referring to that 69 thing from a couple of weeks back) You're so cute. (like you haven't heard THAT before...) Right click, crave as. What is this "smut" word of which you post? I have no idea what that could possibly be! I'm more of an inuendo person myself! Why you singling out me, lol? I can't vote hon. I live in Canada eh.

PLEASE don't let that discourage you! If you have a question about something, and don't feel comfortable asking on the board -- PM the original poster. You can also PM me, if you want -- I've answered questions privately for many people around here. I know it's hard sometimes to "break into" a new message board, especially one that's almost 4 years old at this point. We've got our own shorthand many times, and I know that can be intimidating. Try not to let that stop you. Many of us are more than happy to help you find your way! lmao...and then there's canfly who just jumps right in with both feet and says "Ta DAH! Here I am!" I'm usually the first one to ask WTF unknown acroyms mean. I've had lots of people say, "Thanks for asking. I had no clue what it meant either". I figure there's no sense in going on wondering what the heck it means, so I just ask. It blows me away when I find somebody like yourself who wasn't a fan, who discovered him recently. The only minor worry I have is about Clay filling venues, knowing that we've lost "fans" after Clay "came out", so it's nice to hear that we're gaining new ones!

Sure I can. I too thought it would be nice if he could do 2 songs and I was picking LAA and Ashes! Drawing a blank on MTK. From your profile....in the grey taskbar, at the bottom left, you should see "Applications"; if it's not in the list already, you can "find more" (top right in that popup). It's called Ilike, and when you add the application you'll see all sorts of neat stuff you can do. Or........I sent a thing earlier to all us ON folks that says "LF wants Clay Aiken to come to Toronto, Canada"; you should see that on your wall. If you click on "Vote for your town" in that, I think it will ask to add the application for you. Mkay. I'll go look.

Looks like a big old horseshoe. How do I add that thingie to do dat? Thanks for bringing that over, Kim! My guess is that the something that might be up....is Charles Boyd's birthday party! ....but who knows!! That would be my guess too! Kim lmao...man, you guys are more sarcastic than I am, lol.

Not good ladies...not good... I'm lucky because my daily drive is wide open backroads, so I've never almost crashed as a result of daydreaming but I've gotten more than a couple of speeding tickets as a result of daydreaming. Hey...how do I do the cross out your text thing here? There's no button for it. Who is Charles Boyde? That's interesting because maybe Kara will get Clay a spot to perform later on Idol. He needs to get on there and sing Ashes damnit! While I didn't use to think he should continue to be associated with Idol, I think he's broken away enough and forged his own way with Spamalot, etc... and let's face it...a shitload of people watch the show... a shitload who haven't followed Clay's career outside of the tabloid crap.

Yes, if you scroll down a person's "info" page (the same place where they have contact info, education info, etc) you will see their "pages". Apparently I have 11, including Clay and Blue Rodeo and Milk and Spamalot! You can also see their "groups". Those are things like "Supporter of the BAF" and "I wish I could quit school and follow Clay Aiken around the country". Hee, I'm not making that one up, either. So what if I'm not a student? I could join the "I wish I could quit school and follow Clay Aiken around the country" group but I gotta add that if I quit, then I'd be broke...so best I can do is to "be strategically sick" on certain days...oddly enough...always a Friday or Monday.

I fixed the link, so it didn't look like gobbledy gook. That's the one with over 4,000 fans and it doesn't allow for "friends". ETA: OFC has confirmed it's real. Ahhh, his MUSIC site! The ones you linked previously were personal sites ALL named Clay Aiken! About 8-10 of them... Ye gods. Ooopsies. I guess that's why there were funky symbols there before cuz I must have accidentally copied the link for the page that I found the one with 4,000 fans on it and then when I went to make it a link I must have copied the url for the page that I got when I searched Clay Aiken to find the page. I dunno. Ah wells...it's fixed now. I wasn't talking about his private site. I was talking about the public one. I wanted to check that it was real and I was told that OFC has confirmed it. It's the one that CANN was trying to get people to add themselves to and people are saying that he SHOULD be using it as a marketing tool. canfly, darling...of COURSE you can! That pointy Clay pic I posted is dickable clickable, honey!

I don't get it .... some people don't think wackos and posers are God's children, too? No, I think this person believes they are God's Children and Clay shouldn't be calling them wackos and posers even though they are. Kim Hmm, wonder what she thought of Simon calling that kid from last year's auditions a bush monkey (or something along those lines) then? Course I guess bush monkey's are god's creatures also, so maybe that's okay. Or maybe she's also trying to reform Simon on HIS fan club message board as well. Somehow I'd like to see what his response to entitled, needy fuckers fans is. Speaking of inappropriate - I am inappropriately happy that it is storming outside tonight. RAIN storming. With lightning and everything. Wheeee!!! Buhbye, endless winter!! <<<--- done. Kewl! I love it when codes make sense. No thanks. Is that the best ya got? I only did the Facebook thingie cuz somebody on CANN said that Facebook and MySpace were good ways for artists to "get their music out there" and obviously CDs are rapidly becoming a thing of the past. I found what I thought was Clay's Facebook page and "became a fan" as a show of support and that's as far as it went. I fixed the link, so it didn't look like gobbledy gook. That's the one with over 4,000 fans and it doesn't allow for "friends". ETA: Guess Clay wasn't that subtle cuz somebody told me that the OFC has confirmed it IS real. Facebook confuses me or rather I don't quite get the point and I've found that it's a pointless way to waste time...so can we carry on being appropriately rude to each other here instead? Iz funner. Why we gots no pitchurs? We needs some pitchurs... Random Clay purdies...and I mean RANDOM:

lol you two crack me up Is this real? I'm assuming it is even though it's never been announced at the OFC because it has the BAF linked and you can't make Clay your friend: http://www.facebook.com/s.php?q=clay+aiken...988377101?ref=s ETA: OFC has confirmed that it's real. We know this yuku page is fake: http://clay-aiken.u.yuku.com/

Does that mean that there's an "appropriately rude"? Like "Bless your heart. Isn't that special?" versus "Fuck off, you freakin' psycho!!" I totally "get" the phrase "appropriately rude". If I give :finger: to Justclay, that's being "appropriately rude" cuz more than likely, she was "inappropriately rude" to me on a previous page! Seereeusly, there was a ton of "appropriately rude" stuff in Spamalot. If I'm bantering with somebody, and we're calling each other morons or whatever...we know that we're joking, so that's "appropriately rude". :wiggle: As do I, my dear Couchie.... ...as do I.... Bigger. Can we get that bigger? Huh? Huh? :pray: :beg: :begging: (surely one of those will work) Lotza good discussion here. I gots to go get groceries, so I'll just say that as far as people posting on messageboard goes, I usually try to give the benefit of the doubt but when the posts are "different" my "suspicious" radar pops up. As far as what I read in papers or magazines, I'm a born skeptic, so I question most everything. I'm currently questioning how wise it is to be sending/receiving gifts from friends on facebook. I wonder that there could be some spyware/malaware involved somehow because it "needs to access your account information to work properly". Cindilu2, Re: the emotes, you can't move them around on invision. You can delete and replace and move them up into a spot near the top sometimes and then re-add one that you don't want near the top, so it goes to the bottom, but it's unpredictable. I found with regular invision, that if you deleted one and added another without leaving the admin page, it would put it in the place of the deleted emote...but you had to do it right away and "just right" and it's been a year or so since I messed around with doing that. The renaming is easy. The relocating is tricky. With Yuku, you can replace an emote directly into another emotes spot, so it's more straightforward and less "please let this work". I'm glad to see you gradually renaming emotes to make sense so people can just type the code of their favourites vs searching through the huge long list. Any chance we could rename thewave emote to be :thewave cuz I always screw up :lalaol0 or whatever it is.

Oops. Brain wasn't working the fingers I guess, lol. Now I have new acrothingie to type!!! BOCA!!! You bet - I love catching up with my friends at the lunches! I understand there's going to be quite a few of the London ladies there this time - can't wait to see all of you! I'd be thrilled if Clay appears anywhere near Southern Ontario this summer. I am SO ready for another road trip! Lotus - We'll definitely have to make plans for a gathering, closer to your visit. I decided to come because I knew several people going. I decided to come as well, and I believe luckiest1 is planning to also. Looking forward to seeing you there! Kewl! Ooh, I like BOCA. It has the potential to be very useful in every day conversation. Example: I like Clay's BOCA. I'd sure like to BOCA that hawt singer man. OMG, his BOCA is bigger than I thought! BOCA me, he's kilt me dead. See? Versatile! It's like a wild card! LOL What. Oh, and headoverheels? Please read the fine print: All injuries sustained while falling head over heels at FCA are the sole responsibility of each member. No safety gear will be provided and no insurance or liability is available or implied. Please wear proper padding if you are inclined to fall, people. It's funny that Justclay was whining and asking him for a blog and voila! I'm gonna post the blog cuz he said to spread the news and it's a damned fine blog if I do say so myself. I got a real kick out of it!!!! I love me some pissy, potty mouth Clay, lol. Methinks Reed has been a good influence with his blogs and with his decision to be direct with the imitator! I wish that Clay had put his foot down before and maybe that whole FBM and Fake Clay thing wouldn't have gone on like it did but I suppose now he doesn't feel like he has to hide anything and before he felt like he needed to watch what he said? Anyhoo! I LOVED this blog! :laola0:

They have a vote at CANN and you can pick your fav 4 songs from OMWH. Interesting results so far. You have to vote by Fri pm. http://www.claynewsnetwork.com/2009/03/05/...mericas-winner/

Well, even if he isn't appearing in the area, we'll have to see if we Ontarians can get together with you when you're here! :bier: We have a lot of Southern Ontario folks here, lol. You going to the Toronto Cluncheon Bella? Decided I'd go. Man, would I love for Clay to be touring near/in Southern Ontario in the first 2 weeks of August!!! :laola0:

Here are the two pix that I have of the Birthday munchkin with Clay: Anybody have any others?

Yup and today is leg-hump girl's birthday and I wanna post some Charlotte pix in her b-day thread at the shed, so outside of Tasapio's pix, which I'm saving right now, does anybody have any good Charlotte pix, especially leg-humpin' ones? No...but I wanna redo what CV lost vs just uploading what's on some external somewhere cuz I know for sure that COF had a skip in it. Re: Facebook...are those gifts/pokes you can send each other and pets you can adopt, etc... is there spyware involved in that? Too late now but was wondering about it asking for permission to access your facebook info... I gotta agree do a degree with the "plastic" music comment. A lot of MOAM was pure bubblegum. I didn't love ATDW because I didn't like some of the songs to start with but I do love most of OMWH. Judges picked him as a Wildcard. They seemed to be pimping him somewhat. He sounded NOTHING like Clay, so Simon can stick it, lol. Back to savin' Tasapio Charlotte Nat pix...

Just skimmed... so quick random thoughts: Scarlett, Like GDG said, youtube takes wmv. headoverheels, (hope the obvious code worked, lol) Glad to hear that Tasapio is still a fan. She helped me once to quickly set up somebody else's unfamiliar camera for me. I'll have to go check out her NAT pix cuz I really only discovered her pix during JBT. I'm assuming Beemer (leg-hump girl has them all but who knows). I've been meaning to recap my clack from that show. It was my 3rd show ever that I video-taped (only smuggled in one camera that trip, lol) and I was way back in Row S or something but it turned out not too badly (as far as clack from that show goes). I didn't know how to cap at the time, so what was up at Gonzo's site was done from a VHS tape and CV lost it in the transition.

I joined Facebook awhile back through a flying friend but honestly I don't need Facebook to be letting high school friends find me because frankly the ones I care about, I know where they are....sooooooooooooooooo...really the main use for it would be for Clay friends. I have a couple of Clay friends who have made their screen names be their Facebook names...and I'd kind of like to do that...BUT I have the problem of needing a first name and last name or first name, middle name, last name. I doubt that it will let me be canfly 172. I can try and see if it will take 172 as a last name, but I doubt it. Not sure what else to put. Anybody searching canfly would have it pull up if I had it for my first name, likely? IDK. can fly wouldn't be good cuz anybody searching canfly would pull nadda. I could do CF Canfly maybe? I'm all for gallavanting all over the country for in the FLESH!!! What the heck is TAR? Don't let her kid ya. She's just a lazyass! Ditto...cept with me it was stress due to assignments for a workshop & Report Cards and 90% of my class sick, so was surrounded by bugs and stress and fatigue zapping my immune system, which led to a cold bug & case of the crankies. Clay got me out and travelling solo and meeting people and driving around with and sleeping with strangers (see below, lol). TAR again? What's TAR dingdangit? Disasters come in 3s. There have been 3 crashes. You are safe. Not sure what "view new posts" on Facebook is. The crash due to icing on the flight from Newark into Buffalo freaked me out because of how much flying back and forth between Buffalo and NYC that I did over the course of Spam 1 and Spam 2. I was a little freaked coming back from NYC into Buffalo the last time Jan 4th night because we were coming through major snow and I was sitting out looking at some crap on the wings and as the flaps came down and we started our decent, it started getting really rough and I just didn't like the weather conditions cuz I know how snow can turn to freezing rain in cloud. Me no likey. Normally, I'm checking the aviation weather on my laptop when it's iffy cuz I can read that crap but I didn't have it out that trip...so was "flying blind" so to speak. I was coming into Buffalo that night at about...yup 10:00pm, so yeah...that crash freaked me out some. I've vowed a) avoid turboprop planes and to check the weather and if I don't like it, I'm staying on the ground cuz while we may all have a damned good idea of where the pilots screwed up that night and hopefully all will be more diligent in the future, ya never know. I have nothing against turbo props. Hell, I fly around with only one little fan out front turning around, but then I don't fly through icing conditions. Period. Endstop. I have friends who are pilots, who tried flying commercial for companies and ya know...they check the weather and then...they GO...through crap, they aren't necessarily comfortable with. Sorry. Pilot rant. Buffalo crash shouldn't have happened. :rant: I wouldn't have had a clue who ya were, if you hadn't have said, "it's me cha cha t"...cuz I don't approve unless I know the person...or kinda...know who they are, lol. Well, that didn't go down how I expected, lol. I'd have given him a good smack upside the head. He's a chameleon that's for sure. There's one lady on my one claytionery group who makes a ton of them and some look like hers. I'll ask. ETA: nevermind, I guess? That might have to be where I draw the line... And I'm psyched to learn that one of the perks to being a Claymate/fan is that you can defy the laws of time! When do I acquire this new ability? Don't know about the defying time part but I know all about the dragging/being "dragged" to concerts way too far away and sleeping with people I don't know, lol. We are truly insane...but extremely trustworthy, lol. Join facebook and Demand Clay Aiken in the Woodlands!!! HEY!!! Demand Clay in TORONTO......Massey Hall needs them some Claaaaaaaaaaayyy!!! I had a "professhunul" do it for me. Worked well. If I had to pick between dragging some NJU's and jumping in a car/van/some type of vehicle with a bunch of Clay fans, I know what I'd choose every time! It's a totally different experience. We're "speshul", lol. copy & hope I didn't mess up the quotes...

You should see how much she travels with!!! Have seen it, lol. I have just as much, lol. People I travel with say that about 90% of my luggage is electronics. Jeez. It's more like... 70%, lol.

Nice seeing everybody again at Goldarngirl's again! Travel does seem to be the theme. I do think that we'll get a tour (personally hoping for July/August, lol) but he needs to do SOMEthing to sell tickets to more than just us and somehow needs to promote his music more. The plant looks a bit like catnip except for the purplish cast at the top.

Shit. I'm gonna be seeing both Claymatron and Cindilu2 tomorrow at Goldarngirl's place. Better wear padding. Be nice or I'll cough on you.
