I think Aron might go for it!

Thanks you for the reminder, my life has be crazy for a week. I have been going through an entire house remodel...well, okay we had one bedroom and a kitchen to live in for two days. I really want to try to make the chat. Kim, I missed your anniversary..hope it was a great day for you both. :F_05BL17blowkiss:

Can't say it better than that!!!!!!!! WORD. Yes, yes, yes. I buy Clay's CD's because I want them. Can't wait to get my hot little hands on them. I join the fan club because I want to be an Official Member of the Clay Aiken Fan club, and I rush to any and every concert and appearance I possibly can, because seeing him makes me happy. When he isn't thrilling me with the voice, he makes me laugh and he is never, ever, ever boring! I don't do this whole fan thing for Clay. I do it for me...I am having a ball, I don't want it to stop. I am not buying a piece of Clay! He fascinates me. I love watching him forge a career in his own distinctive way. If he hands over his career, his decisions, to a committee of internet fans, then I'm not seeing Clay, I'm seeing them. I know most of our local fans are still buying CD's, attending concerts and fan functions and always will.... they just won't come anywhere near the message boards. They are fans of Clay Aiken--but not message boards. I stay happy I think because I have very little time for the internet, I go to many boards, I enjoy the good and run from the crazies. I have friends from every board and so far...it working for me. I need more time to savor all the great posts here...I'm babysitting my grandson today. He's 23 months old and keeps me running. And he eats grits!!

Spikesmom

yes I am sure he would lol I'm a Top Chef junkie..is that why I can never lose any weight?

I did a little wearin' of the green yesterday. ..but that's okay I'm Irish. XXX, nice post. I usually just back out of the boards and shake my head a little, it's just the internet. I learned a lot from my 17 year old son taking my by the shoulders once and telling me "It's the internet Mom, if you're going to play there you better always remember, it ain't the real world!" Grits with lots of butter and salt, Yummm........ I've picked many blackberries for Mamaw's cobbler, when out with my sisters. It was then I learned that if you stick them in the pockets of those really pretty yellow shorts Mom made so the three of you would look cute at the family picnic, she's going to be madder than hell. I like liver and corn bread, not necessarily together. But the cornbread has to be made in a cast iron skillet that has a whole stick of butter melted in it before the batter is poured in. And Pot Likkor.....don't get me started on how good that is...

AMEN! And will anything be learned from yesterday? I hope something positive can come from everyone examining how they behaved. I needed to express my opinion here, I am glad I did. I simply had no where else to speak freely. I reacted to the madness taking place on some bigger boards, I tried to see it with humor as I do with most situations. I post on many boards...and I'm the same person everywhere. I don't know how else to be. I will think very carefully about if I should have done it differently, but I don't know that others will. I hope it won't be like so many other situations where some make excuses, rationlize their own behavior and paint everyone who behaved differently as 'bad fans". I hope it will be different, but I don't expect it to be. Does that make any sense?

Oh yeah, more pictures. :F_05BL17blowkiss: I am really enjoying all the great photos tonight. Thanks to all. That man is a tonic, for sure!

Yep, yep..and now they loves him. :F_05BL17blowkiss: Until he does something they don't approve of (or a rumor surfaces that seems to say he might ) then away we go. I hope they saved the "his career is in the shitter" posts, that way they can copy and paste and save time for the next drama fest. Tickets for the Omaha concert went on sale Monday morning for subscription members...I haven't heard anything about a pre-sale yet.

Is it safe to love Clay again?....Yipee..... This was hysterical...

I'm not swabbing any decks! Edited to hug Divayenta

Times they are a changing'...but change is good, change is healthy. Just found this...:whatutterclaptrap: I love it!

Sorry for postwhoring, but I had to WORD this. It's too bad that Clay's fans (at least a good percentage of them) can't be as gracious as Clay is.

Oh I do...even more after that blog. He fascinates me and is never, ever, ever boring! ETA: come to Omaha..everyone. :F_05BL17blowkiss:
