and all of you wonderful people here. And some crazy people at NNHB and the shed. Hey canfly .

She just called me crazy didn't she?

July and August would be good too! Reed could sing backup!!!!

wonder if he plays sax

:teehee:

Winter makes me tired and cranky.

double

I love the new banner!!

I just went to the Pharmacy PO to pick up mail that I got PO cards for (parcels to big for the mailbox) and...

My pictures that I ordered from the Zenfolio site that night when I was making screencaps came!!!

I am impressed.

If I knew then, what I know now, I'd have ordered a few more copies of the full Spam pages.

I ordered a 4X6 and an 8X10 of Clay giving Reed the finger and a 4X6 and an 8X10 of Clay grabbing Merle's boobies and a 10 X 13 copy of each of the full Spam pages with all 6 pix.

They were extremely well packaged and protected. The large pix were taped to cardboard and the smaller ones in sleeves with a layer of thin foam and sandwiched between 2 layers of corregated cardboard, professionally sealed with plastic and the whole shebang in a hard cardboard express mail thingie and requiring a signature to receive.

I should have gotten a few more for friends and might have ordered a bigger size than I did but it was $50 plus S&H for those 6 things.

Quality is very good though! :laola0:

I don't know if anybody else ordered anything that night before the site made the code go bye-bye and we couldn't access the site any longer.

I know I am the only one who made large screencaps. I just may have been the only fan to get copies direct from negs from the website.

I don't have a clue what Clay, Reed, James, or Parker think about anything, as I'm not privy to their thoughts.

And, I have no thoughts on what is right or wrong for them to do as I think they can pretty much handle their own business.

I see that Reed will be performing for 2 months and then have July and August off and return in September--if this is the final tour shedule. SO, I'm hoping that Clay will decide to tour in May and June too--just in case this is a serious romance and he wants to spend July and August with Reed.

I'm good with that.

I haven't read anything yet but tour in May and June is verra, verra bad for canfly. That's right when I'm doing Report Cards and it's always busy. I was really, really, really, reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally hoping for a July and August tour.

I'd like to know where the vault is too! I always thought it was CU, but I guess not?

Sorry. CH has one. CV has one. You have to be a member and apply for access and there is usually a wait list for both (I'm assuming. I'm not a CH member. Asked once. Never got an answer. Decided I wasn't CH material anyhow, lol). If you joined CV for example, you're not going to get vault access right away but there is a clack thread where you can get the recent stuff but they don't keep everything there and like I said, you need to be a member. I never had to ask because I was on the old Gonzo site and all of us got automatic access at CV when they transferred vids there. Wish they'd kept the large wmvs. For many things, they only kept mpegs and small wmvs.

If there is something that CU doesn't have though that you want, you can always contact the admins there and ask for it.

I haven't read much here in the last couple of days but this was the next post on the page that popped up for me just now:

Although I've been an admin for lo these many years I honestly don't know how to use the admin controls to collect information. However, the one thing I DO know that can be done (and this is general knowledge for any board you sign up) is that any email you send from this site can be read. So there is a level of trust that people need to have on any message board. For me that was a counterintuitive type of thing because whenever I wanted to talk shit about anybody in the past I'd email cuz I thought PMs could be read. I found that out quite by accident a while back on one of the 10 or so times I've even been in the admin area . I have no idea if this is a common thing on every invision board or what other boards have the capabilities to do. I don't think PMs can be but am not sure. I know there are other board owners out there so it would cool if you could enlighten folks on this issue if you know anything else.

Admins being able to see members emails sent VIA the board is a new Invision feature (new, as in the last 6 months or so???). My old board was Invision. I too discovered it by accident. Sparky (AKA Clayphoria) and I were like AACKK!!!! Make it go away! I do NOT want to be able to see people's emails TYVM!!!

It can be changed because we got it changed. I forget HOW but we did. We told everybody to only use the Invision PM system on all invision boards and to NOT use the Invision "email" option because unless the board has gone for tech support to get that option changed, the Admins on any Invision board can see the emails that you send from that board. Invision is evil!!!

Yuku is safe. This is only an Invision issue.

OK, now why I'm here is because I found the Katy4clay Golf Clinic vid at CV. It doesn't appear to be up at CU. Not sure if somebody has posted a sendpace but in case not, I made one:

I'm a kitty cat!!! And I dance, dance, dance, YEAAHHHH!!!

I wub the kitty!

I only wish that Clay had sung something that kitty coulda jammed to!

I'm having a sudden revisiting of the feelings I had after I found out that the next CD is going to be a covers CD.

I'm with Muski and ncgurrl re: the song selection. So, I'll leave it at that before Cindilu2 wants to smack me.

I'm hoping that Scarlett's clack will pull me out of this "slow songs/covers funk" that I'm suddenly finding myself in.

Thanks for the link Scarlett.

Showing 1hr 10min. Guess I'll be watchin' in the am.

Man, I am ICG-ing all over the place.

Scarlett sounded so cute....all sillly and giddy and excited. She can't WAIT to get the TITM clack done!

TITM??? This Is The Morning???

ICG-ing???

And BWAH! that Clay actually told Scarlett to be sure to video tape him singing POYB!

OMFG...Cindilu and I were chatting last night..and we were being silly hoping clay had on 3 sweaters, glasses, white tennis shoes with black socks, a wwjd bracelet on one wrist and a rainbow cuff on the other and a bunch of other stuff that would drive the fandom crazy -- and I said he can do all of those things and I'd love him as long as he didn't sing Mandy.

OMFG

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. I am cracking up right now.

I think he's hinting that he'll be doing a Barry Manilow Covers Album...

I'm just catching up! BITE YOUR TONGUE!

*sits in the "hates Mandy" corner with Couchie*

Whoah SHIT!!!

I'm behind. Missin' everything apparently!!!

All is well in Toronto, my niece is gorgeous, and is dying to get out to play in the snow. However, the snow, deep as it is, isn't quite as alluring right now because it's dirty and gray in spots. She can't wait until it snows again, I think she wants to see it falling from the sky herself.

Nickikiwi was like that. Has been wanting to see snow since FOREVER. Missed out last March Break when she came to NYC and on her way to NYC Dec 30th, she got to see snow on the ground but she wanted to see "new stuff"...wanted to see it falling from the sky. At 7:30am one morning...I think Jan 2nd, suddenly I'm awoken by squeals of, "It's snowinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng!". I'm like "yeah, yeah...go out and play in it and let be go back to sleep huh?"

What's Mirasol? A resort?

I think it might be a reflective umbrella.

Maybe.

CNN? Yeah, it's sort of sponsored by the CH and you can get on their mailing list - I remember when we used to pass out "business cards" with the weblink at concerts...

I just realized...I haven't been getting those emails! What happened?

Kung Hei Fat Choy! Happy New Year to everyone celebrating today! :fest09: I love my Chinese horoscope, especially since Clay and I are the same sign!

Year of the Ox Horoscopes

Thanks to whoever posted the adorable pictures with Merle the first time - I was offline all weekend (pesky tendonitis again), so I missed them until this morning.

:pickme:

I see Clay's horoscope says:

HORSE

1990, 1978, 1966, 1954, 1942, 1930

Horse and Ox are conflicting signs. This should be a good year for you in love and in business, but watch out for backstabbers. If you're married, avoid any outside romance; if you're thinking of marriage, better to put it off until next year. You could do especially well this year in the entertainment industry, in public relations, law or politics. If you are self-employed, you may find good new business opportunities, but stay away from new partnerships. They could turn sour. Drive carefully and watch out for sharp objects.

Here's to Clay doing well in the entertainment industry this year! :11:

Oh, I think they love boobies alright, it's the vaginas that don't appeal!

BWAH! canfly...that made me hoot out loud here at work! Thank you.

I'd love to take credit but the hoot was courtesy of Clay's Old Broad.

Hey, quit giving canfly credit for my line!!

See?

Bye everyone and please wish us luck on the clack policy!

Policy Shmolicy. Since when has "policy" stopped ya, lol?

I see some red. Gonna post before I lose this and then see if I can get the CV cellstream to connect.

Oh...Clay Matron. Yes. That does make more sense.

I was saying it clayMAtron. Like some cyborg/robot/thingy.

She gets that a lot. I thought that at first too.

You know, for being a gay man, Clay sure is frisky with the womenfolk, isn't he?

That's what kept me from believing that he could be gay...that and dayum...the man loves hims some boobies.

Gives us prurient types something to cling to.

Had to google that one. Prurient is CF's new word of the day.

Hmmm....and I thought Claymatron was such a clever play on words, but alas... you guys are not alone. Many people have looked at me blankly when I said my name, and then you could see "the penny drop". I guess I never thought of that when I chose the name. But to me a Claymatron could be a huge machine...just producing perfect clones of the man.

Well, I'd never thought of THAT, lol. I always thought that it was Claymahtron...until you "enlightened me".

I guess that it could be Claymate-ron.

But in reality it's Clay-matron, which means "OldbroadwiththehotsforClay"

Seeeeee...

I've always said that if I ever got a photo with Clay and he asked which pose I'd like, I'd say "The missionary position". That was before I knew what I know.....but now, I'd ask him the same thing anyway, because he'd probably laugh twice as hard.

We're here!!!!

Clay is here too and going to do a mini private concert at Mirasol tonight. We can't go cos we are not members......anyone got a few thousand bucks to spare*g*

How much IS it to be a member? Can we take up a collection to get Scarlett in?

cf - the click here button doesn't work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This ain't Yuku, so it's a PB image, so... D101

Hands up ----> :pickme: if you tried clicking where it says "click here".

Oooh, the Claymate discussion. Yippy. I was missing 2003 (and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and 8)

I've gotten fond of the term Claymate since Clay uses it.

I don't really care what I'm called as long as "bitch" isn't attached to it. LOL.

Heh, I'll take that, as long as 'Clay's' is in front of it.

Speaking of Claymates, does anyone else dislike that nickname?

:pickme:

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I.am.not.a.claymate.demmit!!! :rant:

Clayfan yes. Claymate no.

I guess I should have chatted up the folks at our Coral Gables office a teensy bit more the last time I was there... some are Kravitz members (should have asked about Mirasol too) *sigh*

ETA: merrieeee, if you're spilling anything it should be down the pants. "Just take them off and hand those to me quickly, Mr. Aiken. I'll have them dried in a jiffy!".... "and cut up into 1-inch pieces and posted on e-Bay"...

:lmaosmiley-1:

But....if you have him take his pants off, he might be naked! I mean...we've conjectured before that he might go commando from time to time ....and if he chose this night to do without, that would be so embarrassing for him ....and...

Wait.

Never mind.

Well...Reed mentioned on his myspace that he is heading south to soak up some sun (paraphrasing)...could be he maybe heading to Florida with BF...all FCA'ers in the area, keep your eyes open!

Dangheshot didn't want her bandwidth zapped by people clicking on thumbnails cuz she doesn't have a premium account but I do, so she said was OK to post from my PB account. So, here ya go. These are clickables of the larger versions of the wallpapers. The ones with the curl are for standard screens and the ones without are for wide-screens.

Now, don't go stealin' it for your own siggy (where they allow them) OK, but here's Dang's yuku siggy just to look at. It's so cute:

georgie... go to the police with her. Take pictures of the bruises. This is criminal. It must stop. Police have fraud specialists.

Do you know anyone who knows someone in a district attorney's office. This man is relying on fear to stay safe. It won't stop until she gets help.

Does her company have an HR department? Once you have filed a complaint with the police, then they need to know. Get to a bancruptcy attorney, too. They can help keep your mom from losing your home.

Most of all, stay safe!

All good suggestions.

Yes, I can't emphasize enough - GO TO THE POLICE! He is counting on fear to keep him safe...and he is going to continue to hurt your sister.

He's not going to stop until somebody MAKES him stop.

Thank you so much for all of your words of support and advice. It is very scary. I have been trying to convince her that she has to go to the police...she just wants it to be over. She jumps every time the phone rings. Our next door neighbor is a police detective, so I am hoping to get her to talk to him. I just wondered if anyone had any experience with this sort of thing. I tried researching on the internet but most of what I found was related to racketeering, not much on personal extortion.

Jobs are very hard to find here, especially full time jobs with benefits. Many companies are laying off or going out of business. Ditto the housing market. Despite the fact that, according to the news, we live in one of the two top zip codes for home sales, homes are not selling.

My brother is furious and wanted to confront him, but my mother talked him down by reminding him that he has a family and three small children and has no business confronting someone who is clearly violent.

{{{FCA}}}

I'm bolding the part that hit me square between the eyes and do you know what I was thinking? Jennifer Hudson's family. She lost her mom and her brother AND her little nephew because that asswipe was allowed to roam the streets. Your brother confronting this guy instead of going to the police could be disastrous. I'd think that gatherering what evidence you can to take to them along with threats that he's made would be the way to go.

Yes, I can't emphasize enough - GO TO THE POLICE! He is counting on fear to keep him safe...and he is going to continue to hurt your sister.

Or someone else.

Of course she "just wants it to stop" but if he stops abusing her he'll find another victim. Maybe she's his victim now because the last person "just wanted it to stop" and didn't call the police.

Yup

IIRC = if I recall correctly

Which I obviously can't because ICRS.

I think the more likely scenario is that someone who was at the party shared the password with someone else, and that person shared it with someone, and eventually it fell into the hands of someone who had an interest in the Claynation. The pictures were being passed around by fans before they were picked up by TMZ and the like, IIRC. Anyways, although I am sure that Clay did not pose for them with the intent of them being publicly available, I doubt he's losing sleep over the issue. He wasn't born yesterday, so I'm pretty sure he knew the odds of them getting out were high, what with who knows how many people at the party, many of whom were probably not even acquaintances, let alone friends, of his. The password was for the whole set of 826, not just the ones that included Clay.

Totally makes sense to meeeeeeeeeeeee, so (except for the IIRC part cuz ICRS (I can't remember shit). I asked what that acronym meant like 2 days ago and ICR what it stands for cuz ICRS.

I think each person who had there 6 pictures taken in the booth could get a printout of those 6 pictures. Each printout has the web address and PASSWORD printed right in the middle of it. It's no wonder that the password leaked, it was right there for anyone and everyone to see. All that would have to happen is for one sheet of pix to be shared, copied, lost & found, or stolen and it's no longer a private thing.

See? Right in the middle? It says "To see everyone's photos...?"

Yup. Was weird how they did that cuz yeah once shared, it obviously spread the wildfire. D101

Would post more often here but I have a really hard time getting used to linear threads.

Ditto. I guess I post here in fits and spurts, more when something is going on cuz I'm absolutelee a separate threads for different topics kinda gal.

just wanted to see them again without searching.

Seeeeeeeeeeee?

<= Something to entertain the kitty.

Well, it's entertaining me too.

According to a post at CV the photographer and owner of the photo booth released the photos for money and was proud that they were on JustJared and TMZ.

So I heard.

VIA the shed, VIA RHT, VIA CV:

Hi Everyone,

I am usually on the CB, but have been having issues about limiting topics and other such censorship issues. I have this amazing story to tell and felt it would be appreciated here. By the way, I am known as flyingstarship on the CB. I am President of the Pink Jacket Ladies in NJ and have been a lurker on CV since it started.

My daughter, not a Clay fan, is an executive with a huge pharmaceutical company and they had a large company event last night. One of the highlights was THE EXACT photo booth used at the Spam after-party. She was talking to the photographer who runs it and he told her he did all the big parties in NY including the Spam party. Told her he got shots of Clay Aiken with his boyfriend.My daughter pursued this by telling him her mom was a Claymate. He willingly told her that he released the photos for money and was very proud of himself when he saw them on JustJared and TMZ.Just wanted everyone to be sure that Reed had nothing to do with this.

Make sure everyone knows that this slimeball who doesn't care about Clay did it for the cash.

Barb

Love your board and will be active on here from now on.

Canfly's humble opinion:

I'm not sure I'm buying totally that story cuz the pix didn't hit TMZ until the morning after somebody gave me the link on Thursday night to the zenfolio site where the photobooth pix from the Spam after party were posted. From what I gathered, the pix or the link with the PW was posted at RHT Thursday night. Correct me if I'm wrong but the pix didn't hit TMZ or PH until Friday right? Possibly this person didn't sell the link & PW to PH or TMZ but to somebody else, who shared them with somebody who posted at RHT? I dunno. Just trying to sort through this timeline but I wasn't hearing about them being on PH & TMZ until Friday, so they weren't first in the chain of access. I saved them Thursday night (really the wee hours of the morning Friday) in case they disappeared and then just sat on them cuz I was not going to post them publicly and be in any way responsible for tabloid sites being able to pick them up. Once it was obvious that they were already posted publicly, then I was OK with sharing.

No idea if this has been posted:

Top entertainment stories this week

Posted: Jan. 23 9:24 p.m.

5. Does Clay Aiken have a boyfriend? Well TMZ has photos of the Raleigh native getting cozy with alleged boyfriend Reed Kelly in a photo booth at the wrap of "Spamalot."

Speaking of WRAL,Lynda Loveland has left WRAL TV for WRAL FM.

http://www.wral.com/news/local/video/4384126/ Clay is featured early in the video.Who will cover Clay at WRAL next time?

DangHesHot has made some nice wallpapers. She posted at the Shed that you could pm her for a link to the full-sized versions.

I'm hoping she's OK with me posting them here. If not, I'll be waiting for the obligatory upside the head.

And you guys have got to stop kissing up to canfly. She's starting to get a big head and she already has enough issues.

Clayzy, is there a window you can throw her out of?

Well the queen of Clack & her Radio Shack is going to be there soooooo.......

lmao...I knew she was going. Was hoping Radio Shack was too.

this was a fun day.. just love all the photos..the ones with meryl are a hoot too.

I love the boobies one!

Man, that woman has a tongue on her, lol.

Well.....SOMEbody take clack OK?

:pray: :prayer: :beg: :begging:

There. ONE of those should work, lol.

Tom Deckman was in there, Rick Holmes

would have liked to have seen those for fun. I was kind of quick scanning through a few and looking at the little thumbnails, I thought I might have seen Eric Idle.

He likes to mix it up, fo' sho'....which inspires all kinds of delicious images of him in my warped, smutty mind....

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! You guys have CF's WTF cat!!!

:wtfcat:

BWAH! Look at my new avatar! WIth the picture cropped like that, it looks like he's a priest!

BWAH!

And you're goin' to hell for your thoughts!

I have to tell you I cannot get a thing done tonight! I have so much to do before Sunday morning but I just keep looking at the purdy pics. He just looks like a contented soul.

eeeeeeeeeeee I love that Clay Aiken to bits! My goodness you'd think I really was 12!

A few of us were doing that last night, lol....just giddy cuz he looked like he was havin' such a blast.

It almost looks like two different people. In the Orville pics, although still adorable, he looks about 40. In the pics with the fans he looks about 12. I've never seen a man have so many different looks. Who could ever get bored?

Now, see I think he looks older and his face heavier in the dinner shot.

Canfly, THANK YOU so much for posting those shots! They are much better quality than what we had before.

I sat there scratchin' my head for awhile there and somebody else said that they had them screencapped, so I thought, "Oh good", then I don't have to worry. Then I started looking and saw the slideshow and started watching and thought, "they're so much bigger! I should save a couple of them "bigger"...then I just got sort of "obsessed" with finishing the job, lol. I'm gettin' about ready to drop now though cuz I'm running on 4hrs sleep, lmao...just like a CA roadtrip, lol.

I gotta send a shout out to the person who found the link and PW and shared them with me.
