Eeeeeeeeee!!!! I can't wait to see it again myself...after the GIANT flub up Detroit made earlier this month I sincerely hope when they re-air in November that it's in a prime time slot! And I'll only pledge if they have concert tickets... can you tell I'm still angry with them?

Cute Reed video bottlecap! Thanks for sharing.

I listened to your voicemail and had to tell myself to breathe. So it's really true? A week from tonight? Clay Aiken and me I in the same building?

ETA: I meant Clay and me. Clay and me. Breathing the same conditioned air in the same relative space . Me and Clay.

[merrieeee]

Since I don't do too well driving at night I just bribed my Clay hating daughter to drive me there! Money will do wonders!

shortyjill, thanks for the lovely pictures! You can always keep those coming! He's so lovely.

bc, thanks as well for the Reed video. Glad things are going well for him.

So, the Houston peeps are getting live in the studio? Cool. Licking is out of the question, though -- or at least I think so.

I got the HoustonPBS official pledge instructions last week. It didn't say nuthin' like that. Nowhere on the page did it prohibit licking. Don't go making up cumbersome rules now, LadyJ ....

Speaking of licking, this picture makes me want to blow it up, I mean enlarge it, yeah that, and, and, and,

[shortyjill]

What's this about licking Clay? Can I have a turn?

For some reason, we tend to be "the licking board" from time to time. Now is one of those times, so....have at it shortyjill!

OK, so licking is allowed, eh, kf? Did it say anything about sniffing?

Wow, lucky Houston peeps!

I noticed that some more Hammond clack was vaulted yesterday. I belive it was dlh7777's. Very nice clips, don't miss WISYS, he does some cool change ups towards the end of the song. Mandy ain't bad either.

There are also a couple of venues now with mime_fan audio in mp3 and wav formats (and zip files to make downloading the whole set easier).

Sadly, NIP on Facebook has indicated that non-US votes will probably be eliminated by IP address, so Canadians are off the team on this one.

What great news for the Houston peeps who volunteered for phone-duty. Congrats!!!

(and if you lick him, lick him once for me but try not to let this happen :15:)

[FearofH2O]

Yeah, I disconnected FB app and can now vot from phone as well as laptop. I can also vote from Mr

Fear's laptop.

[shortyjill]

Got my votes in. I guess since Canadians can't vote the rest of us have to try harder.

[Couch Tomato]

I got a letter from KQED with the information about the SF concert. My tickets will be mailed to me in February! Yay.

[treenuts]

VOTED!

A super sexy fave...talk about lickable!

That should come with a warning!

From Claygary at CV -

I really never do this....but I do believe in the power of good thoughts!

Today it is my turn to ask for prayers from this awesome team for a friend...

Jerry Aiken (the Exec Director of the "National Inclusion Project") fell very ill Sunday last and is struggling. He has been tentatively diagnosed with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (aka Lyme disease) but does not seem to be responding all that well to the antibiotics prescribed, which is not a good thing.

Dianne (Mrs Jerry) is stressed and trying to do too much.

Your thoughts and good wishes for them would be appreciated.

Oh my! (((Jerry and Family)))

[shortyjill]

Oh no... I hope they find a treatment that will work for him. {{{Jerry and family}}}

[FearofH2O]

FromClaygary posted a way for Canadians to vote at CV, unless I misread it. Of course I read it wrong and Canadians cannot vote. Unless, of course, you want to cross over into the US and vote at the nearest library. Sounds like a plan to me.

The Timeless Tour merchandise has been added to the store at the OFC.

Hey I'm only about a mile from the border if any of you want to crash here! Library is just down the road from me too! *g*
