Just Jared Jr!
Does anyone else start singing the “Jared, the Galleria of Jewelry” jingle when they read Just Jared Jr? Someone please say yes.
THIS has to be one of my favorite comments from a David Archuleta blurb. I don’t even know what it means, but I like it:
this dude is a stone singer. he just brings it, everytime… love the soul/r and b/gospel-y vibe he has going on with this rendition. his voice filled that whole arena. great job archuleta.

Moderator Spotlight
Vicki! Vicki paid me to say this, but I would have said it for free: She’s a peach and FOD is lucky to have her.
Read her moderator story, please. This is fun!
Mod Spotlight Story
So when Becky told me she was going to feature the chat mods on the front page my first thought was, “Oh, what a great idea! The mods are such great people, and this might increase our chatters.” But then I realized that I am a mod, and Becky would be expecting a story from me. Boo. I wasn’t sure I wanted to put myself ‘out there.’ But here it goes:
My name is Vicki. I, like many of you, was an American Idol fan since the beginning of time. Well, the first season. But around Season 5 and 6 I started watching sporadically, because I wasn’t all that thrilled with the show for too many reasons to list here (although we’ve discussed them all in the front page comments and in the chats for the last year and a half). So when Season 7 started I wasn’t watching faithfully, that is, not until I saw that cute young guy David Archuleta sing “Shop Around.” I thought he was really good. Then the following week I remember sitting up straight and tall while David was singing Imagine, and saying to my husband, “Ohmygosh, listen to this kid sing. He is AMAZING.” The rest is history, as you well know. I’ve never followed anyone the way I have David since then. I started googling his name and watching his performances on youtube, downloading his songs from iTunes, and carrying my ipod with me, just like all of you. I was devastated when he didn’t win, and started following his career post AI on that ‘previous website’ – the one that Jenny and Becky posted on before coming over to Fans of David. I followed them here, and starting lurking and feeling really intimidated about posting anything in the comments or in the chats. My ODD was really strong then (well, it still is, but I’ve learned to cope with it – doesn’t that sound like I’ve been in a support group? Ha!). Sometimes I felt like I would burst. That was what finally led me to start commenting and visiting the chats. It really was like therapy, in a way, to find so many other people who ‘got’ David and could discuss it freely. But that wasn’t enough, either. I felt a strong urge to hear David’s voice live, and found myself travelling to Toronto, Rochester and Tulsa to do just that during the AI Live Tour. Then on to Buffalo, Lancaster, Salt Lake City, Chicago, Pittsburgh and Atlantic City for Kissmas Bash, solo concerts and VIPs. Wow. Is that really me who uploaded videos to youtube just so I could have my own personal collection of concert mementos??
So in the process of all this I decided to become a chat mod. I love the chats. They’re fast and fun, and filled with great discussions about anything DA rated. They’re stress relieving and addicting. We chat, listen to David’s music and the music of others, watch videos, do funny nonsensical polls, wait for David to tweet, and love it when we have ‘celebrity drop ins’ like Richard and Brett. Now that I’m a Chief Mod I’ve been working behind the scenes to keep the software files up to date and organized so the mods can easily get to what they need to keep all our chatters entertained! I always feel so honored that I can do something to contribute to the site, which is so instrumental in bringing all the news of David to his fans.
Personally, I can tell you I work in a high school, so I love kids, and teen agers in particular. I find them fascinating! And David is, of course, the most fascinating teen ever! I’m married and have 2 adult children of my own. When I’m not listening to David or when I’m not online, I love to walk my dogs, putter around my house, travel, read, go to the movies (comedy and chick flicks FTW!), have lunch with friends and SHOP!
I’ll never get tired of David’s voice, his music, his loving personality, his sense of humor, and those vlogs and tweets!!! To a large extent, he is what inspires me to be a better person and do what I can to help others. But most of all, I’m really glad to have met so many of the fans who love David as much as I do, whether we’re chatting online or planning a trip to get together and enjoy one of his concerts. We share a wonderful bond, and for that I’ll always be thankful.

David Archuleta Fashion
Sunday, September 13, 2009
It’s official! David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable American Idol after
an intense round of voting. His fans definitely should not be underestimated!
He has a loyal following. David Archuleta stood out from the rest because of his simple, understated style.
The key to David Archuleta’s style is simplicity. He usually rocks a simple combo of jeans
and a t-shirt, with usually just one extra item to complement the look. Simple, understated, but flattering.
He may add a blazer or jacket. A very all-American, guy next door kind of look. But it works.
Over the next few weeks we’ll take a look at a what makes his style unique and how you can recreate it yourself for cheap.

Becky oh my those screenccaps!!! thanks! Oh your Momma is so smart he is too good!!!!
GG 38 Hmmmmmmm
nhu
bye
hmm funny when you click on one of these pics….
things go crazy….
http://david-daily.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=252&pos=4
40/ hi gloria – it good for comedic relief, hahahah…
come on, watch it, take a peek – you know ya wanna, heh heh heh…
i’m evil like that
Jeani hmmm she is a pip!!!!!
I love the way he sings beautiful. He just tickles my heart.
ya’ll have no sense of humor, heheheheheheheh
GG I loved the comparison
Wow even I LoveALLAccess is posting the video of David singing ‘America the Beautiful’!!!
http://twitter.com/iloveallaccess
#59 kimk: Those are beautiful! In the one pic, it looks like he gave himself goosebumps.
38/GG-Ha, you posted that because you loved us…boy sure could have fooled me!
64/ hi jeani/ut….. it’s not every day one can view two singers veering from the ridiculous to the sublime, in a span of 3 minutes, hahhahaha
wanna guess which one is which? 
He looked like Charlie Manson in a suit!
67/ ah yes… i love sharing the pain, hahhahahahah… that’s what friends are for!
love, er, pain of this magnitude must be shared, hee hee 
GG I choose to zone that one out. Expecting his head to explode anytime now so….
hey on ABC Evening News they were talking about why famous folks are so rude and obnoxious lately. It was tonight but missed it. Sure Charlie was talking about Kanye’s latest thing but it seemed like they were suggesting there was a pattern and asking why….tide a turning I hope!
GG: Sorry…I can’t watch Constantine doing anything, let alone singing. I carrying a grudge for what he said about David and I like the feeling. Besides..I don’t have any Rolaids on hand right now.
69/ … i dunno how he survived as long as he did on idol…
Joyf Oh how I wished I looked that good that huge at any time in my life. wowza!
71/kimk-Charlie said it all seems to come down to entitlement…in all forms of the word. People feel they are entitled to be rude and obnoxious; Parents, celebrities, congressmen/senators, and for the most part no one does anything about it. Sad, isnt it!
GG are you kidding the same way Sanjaya did. Folks couldn’t believe anyone could love themselves so much.
o
72/ dratz joy f !! am i to suffer these bleeding eardrums all alone?
‘’sniff”
what happened to taking one for the team, hahahha
psssst – ”veddy wise decision”…
okay i`m back….. hola!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
73/GG-I think it was his self perceived sex appeal, that got him that far *coughchokesputter*
sorry i LEFT … but got a important call hehe
GOSH i miss coming here EVERYDAY… &chatt with you all hehe
ekkkkkkkkk cant wait the ALMA
71/ lololol, the exploding head… that would be an improvement
J72 Joy F It will do your heart good to see him then. Revenge is sweet
80/ ”gagpukecoughhack”…
GG oh didn’t watch it either… ha clicked on it and saw grease so had to go get some cleaner for my computer….
ewwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!
ha sometimes it feels good to act really bad sometimes….
forgive me….not…..
Constantine , Ughhh!
GG yeah i really dont have a sence of HUMOR when it comes to people who BASH my baby!!! hehe
86-Hey Scott- Triple UGH-He makes me ill.
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shinin’ seeeeaaaaaaa…
Ameriiiiiiiiiiicaaaaaaa…
Hello everyone!!!!
85/ i’m not a neat freak in the least, but i like neatness in appearance in a guy – i kinda look for it… from head to toe.. he always looks like he just rolled off the couch, or worse…
i don`t know who that constantine guy is but i don`t like him at all
hi spidey
hi scott/meteoro!!!! just meteoro
Candy: You aint’ kidding. And that perfomance? After David’s ATB last night ? Constantine should really take early retirement! again I say UGhhh!
87/ you can’t take someone like that guy seriously… i know i can’t and don’t… typical l o s e r, who’s opinion didn’t matter then, and doesn’t matter now… that’s why i can laugh at the guy – the audacity of someone like him criticizing david, or anyone – i wanna say, ”dude, pleeze!!”
That picture at the top is so beee uutiii ful. I just love that word. Can you tell? We need a merry go round of that little part Bee U Tee ful and America at the end. I don’t want to miss all the middle either. I guess I’ll just continue to play it over and over. I really love this.
90/ spideyyyyyyyy – hi there!
94/ to outer slovenia or someplace, hahahah
Hola Karla! How are you?
The Marines were probably sayin’ “Where is that David guy from last night”?
ugh
Who is Constantine?
KARLA dont worry about it…
lol sorry i cant get over what he said ABOUT MY CUTIE hehe
HE IS A NOBODY
Anybody know if David is practicing what he will be doing at the ALMA’s right now? Or what song he is singing? I guess we may get a hint Thursday?????? when they record it?????
hola meteoro!! i`m great and you?? wow it`s been a long time
hey Candy
Constantine…all I have to say is ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
oh i nerver commment & HOW amazing david looked last night!!
i just wanted to RIP that polo off HIS body :O *hides* lol sorry SPORTY/UNIFORMS just drive me CRAZY
96/Jeani/ut-I agree I would love to see that picture become the new banner at the top of the page, we are long over due for one. It encompasses everything good about David, his patriotism, his good looks, his sense of style. While the picture there now holds special memories for me, (it was from the Camden JB) it is time for a new look.
HI everyone~ Glad to see everyone still in a patriotic mood!!! Every time I listen to ATB, it is just even more beautiful and breathtaking!
I think we should all write our own song… “David The Beautiful”…would be a very easy song to write!
Loved your beautiful story Vicki..I have been fortunate enough to meet Vicki….she is a very lovely and sweet lady!! Your story is heartfelt, and I can feel the love you have for David right thru the computer, not that I didn’t already know that
hi there GG!
Gloria: what did he say???

Sad news .. Patrick Swayze has died . May he rest in peace.
I’ve seen some really great pictures from last night….so many of them are so clear and close up. They’re beautiful. David looks good dressed all in red, white and blue.
BTW hey kristin how are you
Kristin- After hearing David sing last night I’m out of my mind thinking about what he will sing at
the ALMA’s. I wonder how many songs he will be able to do. The crowd there will just go nuts for him!
I hope Fran leaves that picture at the top
OH MY GOSH Patrick Swayze died

I bet you the USOpen committee probably looked at each other and said why didn’t we keep DavidArchuleta for one more day! This Constantscream is a joke!!
Hi. Gosh, I am so blown away by the emotion of ATB. How am I going to make it through David’s Christmas CD?
Patrick Swayze.

Gloria: god i hate that constantine guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpmILPAcRQo&feature=related
RIP Patrick!
bye pam!
hi hollyre, russ and becca!
hollyre-I thought the same thing Holly because the Christmas CD is going to be beautiful!
Oh karla, that is impossible to do. Its like they are asking your heart to stop beating, you will die!
Second album, more mature sound more soulful, please, I am begging, lol. But whatever it is, as long as David is happy, I am happy too
Russ- Thanks for the bio. Patrick was way to young to pass. It makes us think about appreciating each
day while we can.
Hollyre : I’m sure you’ll find a way! You need to make to the next tour!
ok everyone GOTTA go
GOOD night GUYS! i have to do some HW hehe college HW is calling me
155~Kristin I agree he was really stylin last night….right down to his white Vans and black socks!
Is it Friday yet???
i have to be a david archuleta fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Karla. I refuse to believe you hate anyone. Let’s just say we dis-like Constantine. I dis-like him also.
Hello everyone!
Watching the finals of America’s Got Talent while lurking.
Constantine never will be able to hold a candle to David. He was and probably still is jealous of David’s incredible talent. Just my opinion.
So sorry to learn of the death of Patrick Swayze. He always seemed like a classy guy. Loved him in Dirty Dancing!
penny-I love it when David wears white sneakers….not sure why, but I do. He looked so patriotic last night.
Are the ALMA’s in NY too? I hope Lupe gets to accompany David there too.
Hi Everyone! Just thinking about all the buzz David created by a) being himself and b) singing THE BEST rendition of America the Beautiful anyone has ever heard! And I do mean that, lol. Which brings me to say to gg, No, I cannot watch that video of Constantine, not yet….maybe later….probly not. That is all.
Rest in peace Patrick Swayze. Now there was another class act.
When I sent my picture to Becky I told her not to post it so big cuz I don’t wanna look at wrinkles and rolls, lol.
190 Karla~
Don’t think you are alone w/that sentiment!
karla i like the “CANT STAND” better that HATE :O lol you know david says you cant HATE someone you dont know…. WHO am i kidding i cant stand that constantine guy
Archiecrat oh my what a fine example of a man….
Becca: i know.. is not right they can`t do that…
bye gloria
ok CIAO i really have to GOOO i have to so english HW :/ lol
Haha… just saw a funny photoshopped pic of David at Snarky… they call it “David is the ultimate boyband”
~Hello everyone! So sad about Patrick Swayze…so young! The news was very sad to hear!
As for Constantine Mouralis (sp:)…forget about it! Did he think he was on Broadway performing? LOL!!
187/ heee heee – don’t hurt me becca, hahhahah
abms-Hi! I’m watching too. Not sure who I want to win though.
210/ nite gloria
205/ hi vicki p
okay okay i dislike constantine.. but i hate his name and his ugly hair…
Kristin: you hate him too???????
Vicki…that’s right….all David has to do to start a positive buzz is simply be himself!
Loved your story, BTW!
Archiecrat : ALMA’s are in L.A .Taping Thursday!
Thanks Marylee!
adios gloria…
Kristin – We’ll just have to blubber through the Christmas CD together.
Scott – You may have to pick up the pieces.
Hello everyone.
Somebody jumped on the denounce Kenya West bandwagon and made a funny:
http://i1022.photobucket.com/albums/af350/suchanoldcliche/misc%20pics/YOKRIScopy.jpg
~Kristin…David had on the perfect outfit last night! He looked so handsome and “oozed” patriotism!
Archiecrat The ALMA’s are here.
Royce Hall UCLA LA California
Here is their site and click on the 360 degree thing it is cool!
http://www.uclalive.org/about_rent_royce.htm
http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/09/14/kelly-clarkson-pink-katy-perry-lash-out-at-kanye-for-outburst/
202/ that’s why i just laugh at everything coming outta his mouth… he was soooo jealous of bo bice and carrie in his season, and the word is that the other contestants detested him because of his inflated ego and attitude… no surprise he’s the bitter, insecure and jealous creature that said what he said back in season 7… he thought he was gonna set the world on fire, and it just didn’t pan out that way… he’ll probably end up as a music critic, hahahha… he has the right attitude for it, hee hee….
Karla-I can’t say I hate him….it’s just that NO ONE can come close to David.
hollyre-I’ll have to stock up on the tissues (the ones without lotion – lol)
Russ-LOL I posted that earlier. . . isn’t t hysterical?
Ice cream flavor tonight was sort of ho-hum, Fudge Ripple, still tasted good though.
Spidey pretty snarky pic there but I like it!
226~I guess there is a lot of foul language in that article..sorry about that..but you get the point! Kanye upset a lot of huge names!!
hi vivky
hollyre : Beginning to think that’s why you keep me around for! lol!
Kristin: yup you`re right!
Russ #223
ain’t that the truth!!1
205/ i ain’t mad at ya, hahahha… i just had to see it for myself…
Candy – I bought some ice cream today called “Hot Chocolate”. It’s a light kind. Has marshmallows in it. Haven’t tried it yet.
Hi everyone. One of my cousins called tonight to tell me she saw David at the US Open last night. Another new fan, I hope. She said he was great. Family members still don’t quite get the obsession, but I think they see the talent loud and clear.
Has the Mothership abducted Joanie again…havent seen her today…
Evening everyone, Marylee, Russ, Holly, Karla, Vicki, Scott, GG, Spidey, Gloria, kimk, Jana, Archiecrat, Kristin, VickiP, Spidey, anyone I’ve missed!
Rest in Peace Patrick, you fought a long tough battle with incredible strength and determination.
223 Russ, that’s funny. Now, will Hollyweird ever stop putting him on “award” shows, or any show.
233/Scott – Now stop that! You’re just plain fun to be with! Humph!
Kristin ~ Hello! I think Barbara Padilla will win. She has incredible talent. I am hoping Kevin Skinner does well tonight. I love his story. I also like the 5 sisters from Utah.
hey jeff r
Im really happy with the way things turned out for David singing for the womens finals, a lot of people were at work today and would have missed his brilliant performance.
Joy – I was hoping to hear from someone who was there and heard it live. The crowd really seemed to appreciate it.
Hi JeffR.
I sent my dad an email with last night’s ATB. He sent back an email and said, “Thanks, Holly, I cried through the whole thing.” I can’t wait to give him the Christmas CD.
Hey Jeff- did you enjoy our Jersey touch of fall today?
Hi Candy, how’s your back doing today?
Hi Joy, 1 fan at a time
240/JeffR – What’d you call me?
#244/Candy: You’re so right. Things happen for a reason. More people got to hear David last night, than they would have today.
247/Jeff-its ok but not what it should be, I still have problems doing things along with sitting. Im going to give it another day or two then call again.
#247/JeffR: Well, they’re all getting a copy of his Christmas cd (and a box of tissues) from me in Oct. I’m sure that will win them all over.
Gotta go for a while. Have a good evening.
~Holly…David’s voice resonated in every corner of that arena…he was stunning and I’m so glad so many people had the opportunity of seeing/hearing his beautiful voice!
~Hearing about your Dad crying during “America the Beautiful” is bringing tears to my eyes right now…how simply tender.
Hey Jeffr!
Candy: Haven’t “seen ” Joanie all day either .
Hollyre: aww ,Thanks .
Kristin, I saw that Kenya West thing on Twitter. Yes, it is funny. Kenya is on Jay Leno tonight at ten. Maybe?
Hi Jeff,
Hi Jeff! I just read your post and thought you were referring to Holly as Hollyweird! lol
Hi everyone!
Bye Hollyre!
Candy: I thought the same thing , maybe more people got to see David last night then today because of work, etc.
252/ have a good evening hollyre
246 Candy, YEA, yesterday, today and tomorrow, “New Jersey and you, perfect together!” Then we’re back to 3 days of rain
Wish your back was doing better, I hope another day or two make a big difference.
248 Holly…eek, you made me go back and look to see if I made some egregious typo! I did leave off the “re” though.
abms-I like the sisters from Utah too because I love tap dancing.
Hello all. Very sad about Patrick Swayze. Never heard a bad word out of his mouth. One of those celebrities you get the feeling that is just a good person.
Hi GG, Scott, Candy, Kristin, Holly, Jeff, Russ, Marylee and eveyone else
257/ hey lucypr!! [[hugs]]
Hi LucyPR ! How are you?
Scott! And David’s performance was much more of a production..Sunday Night!!! It was great
248 Holly, OOHHHHHHHHH!, now I get it, I said Hollyweird, hehe. I’m a bit slow. Now you are NOT weird!
~ABMS/Kristin…I’m pulling for Barbara. I think she is, hands down, the most talented. Her rendition of Ave Maria last week was beautiful!
245 – This is a review from someone who was there and heard it live
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2173033/david_archuletas_performance_of_america.html?cat=33
I still haven’t recovered from yesterdays performance. He is truly amazing.
Why is it that everytime he sings something new I can’t stop listening to it. Am I obsessed? YESSSSSSS
Hi RJ, LucyPR!
RJ, he seemed like a real normal kinda guy. Good to see you out of your self imposed time out buddy!
jana: Yes it was ! As it should have been! !
Candy, I got a text from Joanie around 4 o’clock, said she was not feeling well and was still in bed. Seemed in good spirits, but you know Joanie, always is. Hope she is ok.
GG, (((ABRAZOS)))
Songket – loved that article, the soulful, classic, gospel… oh gosh now that would breathtaking David and a gospel choir
262/ sadsville about patrick swayze… i really liked his work.. loved dirty dancing, roadhouse, ghost, next of kin, red dawn, and loved him in the north and south mini-series… he did seem like a pretty regular, stand up kinda guy…
Russ-Really? Not sure I want to watch him. He’ll probably try to get sympathy for his actions.
lol just realized the background image change on David’s twitter page hehe..
Kristin: Did I miss something important today that you and Holly were referring to last night? Or has it not happened yet? Inquiring minds…
Marylee ~ Barbara Padilla has an incredible voice. Her rendition of Ave Maria was stunning. She has a strong chance of winning it all. Everyone is doing very well in tonight’s finals.
Joanie’s sick? I hope she feels better.
Candy, Are you feeling better?
I can’t take more sad news today. One of our co-workers has his mom really sick. He came to my office and cried. I can’t see a man cry, I started crying with him. Big help I was
Songket love that article!
Kristin and Russ umm I heard a little rumor he was drumming up buzz for his appearance on the show? not sure of course but wouldn’t put it past him to try to get a little something started?
Hi Joy! I hope you didn’t miss it. We were excited about the Rising Star Outreach Quilt and Pillow Auction promo that started today with the video. I hope you saw it.
Hi I LOVE LUCY, how are you?? its been forever…
277 – actually twitter changed the default background image .. I am so confused right now..g2g..have a great time..
~ABMS…I’m recording it and will watch later. Based on last week, I think she should win. Did she sing yet tonight?
Kristin, I’m sure they will try to cover Kenya’s actions with some comedy. I hope he doesn’t show.
Candy, I know. Work has been crazy. Lot’s of things going on, but today I needed a David and fans break…lol
255 Russ, is tonight Leno’s debut? I hope he boots Kanye off, and makes a joke about it.
#282/Kristin: Oh, I saw that. In fact it crossed my mind that that’s what you guys were talking about when I saw it, but then I forgot about it. I was at Holly’s house when she showed us one of the squares she was working on. It turned out really nice.
Songket things have gone fluey over at twitter….
Hey JeffR…May have been self-imposed but Joanie sure was making sure I behaved. LOL Hope she feels better.
I was just about to ask where DAvid is and a tweet came through. He was watching a movie with his “momma”. I guess he is back home?
~It just infuriates me when someone is allowed to get away with bad behavior with a simple insincere apology! What he did last night was unacceptable and he needs to be reprimanded more strongly than he has been…
just my opinion
David’s tweet :
Watched 17 Again with my mom. It was my first time watching it and her 4th lol. She really likes it. It was a actually a really good m …
280/ [[[hugs]]] you can’t help but sympathize, and cry along with them….. he probably needed that release, and anyone with a heart would have done the same as you…
kimk-Well, if he was doing that, he’s pretty pathetic.
Russ-That’d sure be nice if he didn’t show.
I watched that movie 17 again. I’m not a fan of Zac Efron, but he did a pretty good job and those shirtless scenes, well…
. Even my husband liked it…haha
GG: I’m so glad someone besides me remembered Patrick’s work in North & South. I have that collection on DVD and watch it at least once a year.
Thanks to whoever linked to that vile interview with Constantine. The grudge is still on.
Candy: Love your idea of updating the picture at the top of FOD. I’m partial to this one. Have it on my desktop now.
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Uw_M6ZbloQw/Sq2Z8f-Ef8I/AAAAAAAAROc/L8sPLrOk01k/s1600-h/zusopen10.jpg
wait that last sentence didn’t come out right… o dear… hahahahahaaa
Russ and JeffR: I am looking forward to Jay Leno’s new show. I always watched him at 11:30. Not crazy about Conan tho. Jay will tackle the situation if Kanye is on there tonight. He did that with Hugh Grant after he was arrested that time.
Um, Russ, who’s Kenya?
Kristin ~ Yes Barbara sang already tonight. She was great.
Def not watching Kayne on Leno, watching it once on YT was enough!
293/ unfortunately, he’s in an industry that thrives on bad behavior, controversy and money… he’ll be excused for being a horse’s behind – if he continues making his label money… see britney spears, and a host of other singers and entertainers who seem to be excused for their bad behavior, as long as they are still able to sell those cd’s! lolol… people have pretty low standards, it seems, for the music they listen to and buy now, and for the people who sing it… lots of younger folks soak this kind of drama up, and it makes the person even more popular… go figure, but until parents and kids stop forking over the money to buy these folks product, folks like him will continue to thrive… it’s a mixed up, muddled up world…
299/Joy-I like that one too, features all aspects of David.
So, still no Christmas tour dates? I need them NOW or I might not be able to go…
We do need a new banner on FOD. Who did the one we have now?
heading out , Good night all!
299/ that was a great mini series joy f… i’d love to have it on dvd… must add that to the shopping list next time i go to wal mart, or best buy….
hi all!
4o Gloria this is really really late but you post just popped out me as I scrolled through the thread it is literally EXACTLY what I was thinking LOL way to steal my words right out of my mouth
307 good nite great scott!
Hard from Joanie, she’s not feeling well, but like you said Russ, her sense of humor always prevails! She cracks me up!
Good night Scott.
311-danged Freud *heard from Joanie
#293 Marylee…I agree, an apology is not enough. That’s a cop out. If I were Taylor Swift, I’ll only accept Kanye’s apology if he donates $1,000,000 to a charity of my choice. That’ll prove if he’s really sorry and see if that’ll teach him a lesson.
Goodnight Scott!
Hello everyone! Checkin in before bed. SOOOO much homework. It is a miricale I got 2o minutes here today. Won’t be on at all tomorrow. I have a track meet dance class and tons more HW!
314/RJ-I like your idea, if they dont attempt to stop some of this crapola, it is only going to get worse!
so Kanye is on Jay Leno?? hmm…. should be interesting but I REFUSE to watch it and give him publicty and GG you couldn’t have said it better people thrive on drama and it is so wrong! judging by what I saw on facebook (of course this is a skewed result because it is a sampling of only my friends and I chose to involve myself only with people who have some type of morals) but still people were NOT happy and his actions may not be so quickly forgiven!
Good Night Scott- you’re 15 minutes early tonight
304/GG – I agree. Funny how these artist have a trouble childhood. I think Kanye mom had him in control but since she passed away, he has been pretty crazy.
Poor Joanie. *sending {{{hugs}}} her way* and smiles
RJ I would agree. Kayne giving 1million to charity. That I would love to see.
I heard from Joanie this afternoon too, really feeling under the weather today lying in bed. But she is armed with her iPhone!
Nite Scott!
RJ that is actually a great idea! I wonder if Kanye would be willing to do it or will he just take the bad press…. what he did was absolutely despicable though and you are right the words “I’m sorry” just aren’t enough this time and I doubt they will mean a horses behind to anyone!
Put your money where your mouth is… good idea
If I went to Kanye and hit him with a 2 x 4 and then said “I’M SOOOO SORRY!”, do you think he’ll be OK with that? Yeah, right!
#298 LucyPR: I think Zac is a very talented dancer and singer. I even enjoy the HSM movies because he’s in them. Heard he doesn’t have a very good reputation, but I don’t really follow him that closely so don’t know one way or the other.
Lucy that is a sad story! However, it does not give him an excuse for his behavior. It is very hard for kids with troubled family lives to become successful adults but MANY do so!
320 LucyPR aww his mom died…. see stuff like that makes you almost want to feel sorry for them but then you remeber how horrible he was and you can’t really sympathize with him…. but how can you not with a childhood like that
I just wish someone would have taken over and raised him better!
JoyF and GG ~ How could I have forgotten about Patrick Swayze in North and South. I have that recorded somewhere on a VHS tape. I loved that mini series.
Joy, Sorry, Kanye. Picky, Picky, Picky. lol
327/ RJ – lol
My mom just got off the phone and said Patrick Swayze died.
I agree what Kanye did was sooooo wrong. “I’m sorry” means nothing in this sick world. Just any 2 meaningless words these days. It’s sick!
*Sending my husband to make a house call to Joanie tomorrow* Literally, he leaves for SLC in the morning for a business trip. He could check on her. In fact, they were thinking about maybe getting together for lunch also with Richard some time over the next few days. But he’s kinda quiet. Don’t know if he’d actually get together with FOD folks he hasn’t met yet. Although I have.
Jeff R. that is good! At least David music can make her feel better.
Just saw a commercial for Jay Leno show. Jay asks Kanye if he had a rough day today.
327 RJ….worth a try though!
318/ he’s got an upcoming tour, and is working on another album… if he continues to make money for his record label, they aren’t going to do anything to him… in a real world situation, he would have been terminated immediately, and shown the door… if his behavior results in lost cd sales, or tour sales for them, look then for them to act… it’s a cold, cold business, and your ability to keep the money train going determines how you’re treated…
archieluver-once you become an adult, the choices you make are your own. Hes a sad example of making lousy choices!
Lucy you are funny. haven’t seen it and guess I have to.
Joy that would be interesting! Does he like David?
Russ I hope he did! He deserves it!! CLASSLESS!
337/ the spin begins….
#308 GG: North & South, Roots and Jesus of Nazareth – 3 of the best mini-series ever written for television. Proud owner of both.
Never forget the first time I watched the entire series of N & S at one time…took me 24 hours of near continuous viewing, but it was worth it. I hated having to wait the 2 years or so before we could see Part 2 on television. Kind of like waiting for Parts 2 & 3 of Lord Of The Rings.
335/Joy- is he worried about ending up in the trunk meeting up with people he doesnt know?? LOL
334 Davidafan
see the dead celebs thing is picking up again…. but we shouldn’t be upset! Patrick Swayze was suffering for a very very very long time and has been ill for a number of years and things were particularly different at the end as sad as it is we should be glad that he is with god and no longer in that amount of pain!
Russ: I thought maybe Kenya was your “pet name” for him or something.
No excuses for Kanye what he did was wrong.. I also heard he had been drinking.
GG: Joanie really needs to rein in Freud. Can’t she call him from her cell or something?
Post # 344 – I meant Proud owner of all 3
GG that seems rather ridiculous as well! I would hope that his CD and tour sales suffer. I can guarentee no Taylor Swift fan will buy another Kanye thing again!
Hey Kimk
, you are going to enjoy it…. 
hmm…
17 again trailer…
yep would be tuff to watch the whole movie….
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNqwRL4Ir8o
Patrick Swayze said about a year ago he was ready to die. So I guess we can’t be to sad. He is better off now!
Lucy of course he was drinking! What else would explain that behavior! Stop serving alchohal at those dang events. It is only trouble.

337 Russ gee I wonder???
Candy yeah I know his choices were his own but it is sad that he was so troubled
but no one can really feel bad for him after seeing the way he treated the girl it was just entirely inappropriate!
#340 Candy…Absolutely right. And a bad childhood is not an excuse to behave badly especially for those who have the financial resources to get counselling or therapy and better themselves/ survive their childhood.
#345/Candy: He just might be. I’ve told him about you guys.
Df4e: Yes, he LIKES David. He does not suffer from ODD however.
hellos! i`m back!
hi archieluver!!! miss you!
hi DF4E!
hi LucyPR
kimk I heard that movie was pretty inapropriate. never saw it though.
Gnite! New thread!
NU THREAD!
davidfan4ever – totally agree. Alcohol in these events never bring anything good.
Joy, yep,, that’s my buddy Kenny.
hey new thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEW THREAD
If someone came out like Kanye did and interrupted him and said another artist had the best music video with him standing there he would probably beat the you know what out of them…..He not only interrupted Taylor, he grabbed the microphone out of her hand and then handed it back to her after he got through acting like an idiot. I don’t think I have ever seen anything more disrespectful than what he did to her.
I absolutely LOVED David’s performance of America, The Beautiful! I particularly appreciate that he did not alter the song and it could be enjoyed as purely patriotic, It speaks to David’s loyalty to himself and patriotism for his country.
Kanye’s motto is … “Good or Bad, at least they’re keeping my name in the news”. That is all the print ( or any thing else) he gets from me. All his CDs should be moved to the bottom shelf, and to the back of the display.
