=============================================
Teamarchie is working at a new site (http://teamarchie.weebly.com/forum.html)
and is still in need of help with the gifting of CFTH. They need sponsors who will buy
and send the CDs to folks requesting (most likely International fans) or also the
MP3 versions, etc. Here’s a blurb from them:
“Our gifting is heavily supported by people who sponsor albums to giftees. If you
would like to participate in this program, please leave your email address and the
maximum number of cds you are willing to send, and in what format
(physical, itunes, mp3).
We will then email you the information for the giftees: their name, address, email,
etc and you will take over and send the gift directly to them. I will email you specific
directions/advice for sponsorship as well, so you will be properly directed in how to
fulfill this important role.
We are in heavy need for more sponsors for physical gifts. Thank you for your support!”

Hi Candy! Oh my..it’s too much. Hey did you see the kitties? So cute!
35/RJ-”Porks chops are resting” I really think you need to give up your day job and try out for “Top Chef” Bobby Flay would be proud of you.
Hi again jana!
RJ, no…no mint sauce on my lambchops! I like to taste the meat. Yum! Whoa…Saturday…well, what am I talking about week from today is Thanksgving! Oh my! Well, you’ll have a great, relaxing time!
Full Deseret News article about David is now online! http://www.deseretnews.com/article/705345725/Archuleta-still-calls-Utah-home.html
I have so much to do..I am making a list. I hope to have Sunday to relax!
Jana…Thanks. Bought a rack of lamb at Costco. Pretty surprising that 4 thin slices/ chops are filling enough for me. I have leftovers for tomorrow. Cooking the couscous tonight made me think about trying to make risotto and polenta. Haven’t done those my entire life. Although I know there’s instant polenta. Don’t know if there’s instant risotto though.
44/Jana-Davids kittys look like two strays I feed, Ringo(No relation) and Dottie. I just love kittys, Im sure you already know that. We have a lot of cat lovers here.
Joanie!!! What about this crowd??? Did you ever imagine it would get this big??
Wow, Nova Scotia!
JoyF! You are an awesomeage event planner!
Monica: We sent you some information and hope it goes through the spam blocker. I filled out the form. Please contact us that you have received it!
42/ later than usual rj, lolol… i refuse to look over any reports from work this evening… it’s been a looooooong week, friday’s almost here, i’ll deal with it tomorrow, hahah… there were layoffs this week, another one coming the 1st of december, so i’m a little burnt out w/my company… i have a lot of vacation coming up beginning in december, and i’m living for that respite
Candy, I, too think RJ could be a succssful chef! He can cook for m anytime!!
47/ hello and thanks iteachkidz22
47/iteachkidz22-Thanks!! That was a GREAT article, its nice when they let David say what he wants.
RJ~There are frozen Risotto’s at TJ’s. But get a recipe and give it a try..cuz it’s fun to make..you keep adding fluid and cooking it down and adding more..it brings the starch up so it’s really creamy! I LOVE portabello risotto..my absolute fave!

Hello Everyone!
Candy~You know about my Archie cat right?? I have a year and 1/2 old Maine Coon named Archie..
He is just a wonderful little cat, well not so little anymore!
David is listed as an in studio performance on the today show. Passes are on a first come basis. I registerd quite some time ago but have not heard anything yet. Usually the passes are available about 2 weeks before the performance.
http://www.deseretnews.com/article/705345725/Archuleta-still-calls-Utah-home.html
Hi Patty-another day closer to the SLC show!!
Jana: She’s SandyBeaches on TDK. I think I’ve seen her posts over there. The only reason I know where she’s from is that it’s on her PayPal payment.
marge oh you are a peach! hmm will look for that link… thanks!!!
Candy…C’mon. Please don’t tell me that you don’t know you have to let meat rest before cutting into it. You’re a talented cook yourself.
Joanie…Hmmm, move to Murray and be your personal cook and have “accidental” encounters. Hmmm….
GG…Layoffs? Are some coming from your group? I remember a few months ago, you were stressed about having to deliver bad news to some of your team members. Such are the times…
RJ, funny ou shoild mentin risotto! I havenever made it, but I put it on my shoppig list the other day beause I am determined to try it. It alwas looks SO good when I see someone make it on the food network! Ha! RJ…instant risotto is sort of an oxymoron, wouddn’t you say? LOL Actually, I kind of don’t like anything “instant” like oatmeal, rice, pudding…
Jana…I knew we’d have a big crowd, but 60 is amazing! This is going to be so fun!
62-Hi margeBTBDX2-I hope they get back to you and you get the passes. NYC is so exciting this time of the year, add in David and the excitement goes through the roof!

Christmas from the Heart by David Archuleta
=================================
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wpa/MRSS/topalbums/sf=4403441/limit=0000/rss.xml
Joanie..treat yourself and cook up a risotto..it is great, and fun to do and yummy!
RJ-I know about letting meat rest, most men I know would be tucking it in bed with a pillow if they had to “let the meat rest.”
Jana…That’s what I want to try making…wild mushroom risotto. I know it’s time consuming but I think I’d rather spend the effort than get reheatable kind.
JoyF: Sent you an email! We heard from Monica! Yay!
Sorry, everyone! I don’t mean to ignore any of you! I love you all! It is just that I am multi tasking.
Joanie and RJ..
http://www.globalgourmet.com/food/jgf/2000/0200/portobello.html
(I use chicken broth, my friend uses 1/2 chicken broth and 1/2 white wine..)
haha, Candy!
Hope everything works out, GG! (((Hugs)))
Candy….ROTFL! I know what you mean. One of my friends can’t understand the concept of “resting meat”. He wants to eat it immediately while it’s hot.
Joanie…Well, with your arborio rice don’t forget chicken/ beef/ or vegetable stock.
64# Joanie…yep getting closer and closer lol
I am so exited.
Hi Patty!
Hello Marge!! How are you tonight?
Jana…oh yummy! Portabello risotto!
RJ….hey, that’s what I call a win-win!! Oh man..looks like Freud was walking all over my keyboard in my last comment! LOL
72~Candy whaaaattt? lol
DFT: I just emailed Monica back.
I’m hungry.
67/ hi rj – my group wasn’t affected this time, but it still pains to see the talent pool
just dwindle and dwindle… come the one in december, i’ll have the be the bad guy again,
and when i’m done, i’m starting my vacation – immediately… and will use the time to do
some thinking about some things career wise… i’m coming to my limit, and it may be time
to begin putting some things in place to begin shifting gears in the new year… the trick
will be to avoid the axe myself, hahaha… life. ya gotta love it, and roll w/ it
For those going to Ann Arbor, “POSSIBLE” list of songs: Have no idea if this is rumor or fact.
1 Traditional: Angels we have heard on high

Hello everyone!
WOW!!!! I’m really liking the new site design! KUDOS TO THE PEOPLE WHO MANAGE THE SITE!
Hi Candy,Kimk Joanie & everyone else.I hope you are all doing well. Not sure if i will get passes as they are limited. I think they allow 2 passes for each person that signs up. Knowing David’s popularity I can only imagine how many people have signed up. I happen to have the day off from work & it is just a great time of year to spend the day in NYC.
awesome JoyF!
awww, get something to eat! You have worked very hard on this project.
awwww, GG! Many prayers for you and all the employees
78/ hi patty
62/ good luck margeBTBDX2 – i hope you get those passes quickly – representing for the cp
Patty, four days!!
RJ I am fond of chicken stock…even for beef or pork dishes. I just like the flavor of it, and am not really that fond of beef stock. I usebeef stock abot one timeto eery 20 tis with chicken stock. I make a ovely fish chowder anduse chickn stock, but also use clamato juice and the juice from the clams. Oh boy…why m I getting hungry? I had that lovely BLT earlier!!
Jana, I am getting it at the store this week, And I am going to make it for sure!
if its the show set and he follows Ave Maria with PAP, we might as well cash in our life insurance policies. We wont be needing them after that!
84~Candy??? How di ya get that list..was it posted somewhere.? WYSYLM?? I would die.
87/ thanks – i try to stay ”prayed up”, everyday
Marge, I hope you can get those passes! That would be so much fun!!
85/ whassup spideyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
#83 GG: I emailed the young lady who trained me at my last job and got an automatic response saying that she no longer worked for the company. That was a shocker! Then Mary, our supervisor, emailed me and told me how awful it was to have had to let her go. The real stinker of the thing is that they are related, so it made it that much tougher. There are now 2 people doing the work that 4 used to do.
God bless her heart..she tried to get me back into the office until someone new could be trained as Purchaser, but things are just too slow right now.
Hi Everyone!
Candy~I just saw that list of possible songs for Ann Arbor too. Oh my freakin’ heck! I think you’re right about the life insurance policies…hubby might be a little too happy to hear that! LOL!!!! Did I see somewhere that you might be going to Ann Arbor?
91/Jana-looks like it was posted by the Ann Arbor Symphony people… like I said IF this is the set list, we wont need life insurance anymore..we’ll all be goners!
Candy: When You Say You Love Me???? I’d crawl over molten rock to hear David sing that live. I wanna go to Ann Harbor! Waaaaaaa
GG…
about the layoff 
about you finding out what’s right for you
Candy… No need to cash my life insurance yet. No “What Child is This”, so I’m still good.
96/Hi Laurie-you are going to dieeeeeee …what a set list!! Im toying with going to AA, not sure I can workout the time away though.
I have NEVER hear David sing WYSYLM live. That would be my #1 sentimental all time Fave. he just owns it! (in my little opinion anyway;) I have to say I am so excited to see the direction he chooses to go in over the next 5 years or so..and support and trust his decisions 100%. But WYSYLM is such a sentimental favorite because when I saw him (YOU TUBE) sing that after a couple AI concerts..it was either the Staple Center or Portland..I just understood his greatness so much better. he wasn’t just a young kid w/a fantastic voice. He was more…
eeeeeeeeeek!!
Snarky’s thought maybe
WHEN YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME AT ANN ARBOR!!!!!!
ORCHESTRA??!!!!
DEAD……….
wahhhhh want to go!!!!!!!!
hmmmmmm?????!!!!!!!!
there is more!!!
http://www.snarkyarchies.com/
looking for a plane ticket……..
Love, love, love the new Christmas design of the website…puts me in a happy, Christmasy, Davidy mood! lol
The Riddle???
101-Jana-I would love to see WYSYLM on the next cd, no one does it like David, another one of his masterpieces!
88 Hi GG how are you doing today
89 Joanie Counting down lol
Hi DFT we will a lot FOD in the Branch lol, I am so excited to meet all of the FOD.
kimk~Yeah, what the heck is that? Going to google it…brb
anybody know what airport??
What the heck is “The Riddle”?
Jana…thanks for that recpe! I’m going to make it for sure!!
Patty…I am so excited to meet you and so many other people!!
Yo LLALaurie..you crazy woman!
Oh my….I hope we gt to hear David sng WYSYLM is SLC wearing something other than that bulletproof suit from th AI tour! Wow, that would be the frosting on the cupcake!
Hello GG!!!!
I hope all is well. The site looks really cool. Just watched David’s vlog and the only thing that reminded me on one of their cats whose name is “Katsu” is Japanese food – Pork Katsu/Katsudon… LOL 
hahaha
103/Laurie the site does look festive, doesnt it. I love it! So bright and cheerful.
RJ eeeek! have no idea??!!
#101 Jana: You took the words right outta my mouth.
The Riddle is a song by Five For Fighting..I think. Excellent lyrics. One of those message songs that David loves.
Oh I just love WYSYLM. My favorite forever. When David called me in the hospital that’s what i remmember telling him was how much i love that song. I hope he sings it.
I get it now…THE RIDDLE is when David asks a riddle and whoever answers correctly gets to go on stage, sit on stool while David serenades her with WYSYLM.
Joanie-WYSYLM-The frosting on the cupcake, the cats meow, the whole enchilida…I pray for video.
Yes, Patty! We will be lots at SLC! Can’t wait! Getting very excited!
yay, I am going to Ann Arbor.
#106 Patty: I don’t have your name on my list…do you go by another?
Looks like there are two songs called The Riddle. One is by Five for Fighting which I now recognize and I could totally hear David sing and possibly play on the piano. The other is by some GIGI’AGOSTINO, something about Babylon and wise men, so it could be either. Very interesting…..
From the other thread…349/GG and 345/Candy~ Well, this VIP is the only time I’ll see David in my entire life. It’s my only chance to tell him what I’m seeing from the outside. And I know how to tread lightly when I have to. That’s why I’d be doing it in writing.
GG, you said to weight the costs vs the benefits. To me, the benefit would be that David might see a bit more of the bigger picture and be able to make choices based on that. The cost could be that he’d hate me forever, but I’d rather have that than watch him unknowingly step into traffic. What other costs are you thinking of?
DTW, I think Kimk!
116/margeBTBDX2 -I can sure understand why that songs has such special meaning for you.
11 hour ride or $400 plane
95/ ummm, ummm, ummm… that bites… it really does… i’ve found myself distancing
myself emotionally from many associates at work, because there is a real possibility
i will have to do just that to them… that’s one reason i like working at home some days…
117~RJ..in my dreams
When You Say You Love Me, Waiting for Yesterday & Ave Maria on orchestra!!!!!
You have to promise to take ultra hi-def videos, ok…. 
Joanie~Hey baby! What’s shakin’?
RJ~ROTFL!! Yeah, right! And I’m sure I’ll be the one he calls on and gets to go on stage and be serenaded by him! In my dreams!!
120 JoyF…..you are funny girl to many to keep in track with different names lol. My really name is….Claudia J
Hi Marge! How are you?
JoyF I am actualy tearing up hear thinking about David possibly singing that.. I must tell Julie..lol
#130 Patty: OH! Hi Claudia J! Now I see you on my list! Yes..it does get confusing!
DFT~Hey! Did I see you are going to Ann Arbor? Oh my heck, please tell me you are! I will get to meet you!
OK…now I find this interesting…I don’t know if there’s a connection or not so you decide based on Richard’s history…Wasn’t Richard tweeting about riddles last night? Hmmm…
What is it that you should definitely keep, even after you have given it to someone else?
As I went across the bridge, I met a man with a load of wood which was neither straight nor crooked. What kind of wood was it?
In 1990, a person was 15 years old. In 1995, this same person was 10 years old. How was this possible?
A plane crashed and every single person on board died… yet there were survivors. Explain how…
Hi LLA Laurie! Yes, I am going to Ann Arbor! I can just cry now! I am so excited! I just made the decision last night. squeeeeeee, Can’t wait to meet you!
Yes Candy I will never forget that song. He just sings it with passion way beyond his years. Truthfully I enjoy anything he sings but that would be just the frosting on the cake.
Jana: He doesn’t usually change the set list from venue to venue, so maybe..just maybe we’ll get to hear WYSYLM live!
Oh, yes, RJ! Richard was sending riddles. haha
Jana~Are you talking about WYSYLM? I watched the Tulsa video last night and watched him get so emotional and of course, I bawled! Something about that song and his voice just suck me right in.
Marge~David called you in hospital? I vaguely remember hearing something about that…would you mind telling me the story?
The Riddle

H Spidey!! Hi kimk!
Marge, I love WYSYLM! Awww, I am so glad David was able to talk to you while you were in te hospital! He is so caring and so considerate and his music has sch a healing quality! I hope he sings it too!!
RJ, only f he wants someoneto faint right on stage! LOL
Candy, come to SLC, and if he sings it, you’ll be here with me to hear it!!
Yes Richard was sending HARD riddles, late at night when my brain was full of mush! Then he didn’t give us all the answers!! lol
I think tomorrow I’ll go and get a business license to provide funeral services. Seems like it’s going to be a lucrative business in the next few days.
The Tulsa WYSYLM is the one that literally tears my heart out, the emotion, the tears,
lol RJ! Should I make my reservation. haha
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9U-CoMTdo4
DFT~GET OUT!!!!!!! You made a great decision!!! I can’t wait to meet you as well!! Joy and I are going together, and possibly Holly. Val, Pam, Andrea, Gloria are some others I know who are going. We are staying at the Four Points Sheraton and going to Panera Bread before the show to meet up with other FOD’ers. Have you made your arrangements yet? I’m so excited!!!
RJ~Do you think Richard was hinting about “The Riddle”? LOL He is such a sly fox!!!!
RJ-I think youre right!!
Candy~Tulsa and SLC! And of the earlier ones..the Staple Center and the Portland one is quite good
JoyF…Did you know what time we need to be in the avenue? Are we post having an email to tell us what time all start? Sorry for my question since this is my first VIP lol so I really want me sure I don’t get late. So I can plan what time is the best time to leave work.
134 LLALauie Um…my thighs
after walking on my treadmill after being sick for so long! LOL My muscles were screaming!
135 RJ…oh, good catch!! I think you’re on to something!
Candy~You didn’t answer me…are you going to Ann Arbor? Please?!!! I would love for you to come!
Riddle-Five for Fighting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgNPGBp4Ygg
whoaaaaa I am loving FFF’s version of the Riddle; praying David does this!
so how do I get myself to Ann Arbor and still have the other half when I get back….
urgh I WANT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!
LLA Laurie! Woot Woot! Yes, I have my flight, hotel, and ticket for the concert. I am going to go to Panera Bread also. Marciami is going to take me. Can’t wait to meet you all! Donna and Nancy(Muldur) are going also. Don’t know if they can join us at Panera though.
Joanie~Why don’t you come to AA too? We can make it like AC all over again! haha No watching me walk into the men’s bathroom and not saying anything though! lol!!!
140~Laurie..that song means so much to all of us and to David’s career too. My goodness If I could hear him sing that live!!
#151 Patty: You should have received your itinerary from ILAA already. Think everyone else has.
We need to be there at 3:30 sharp! Print out your confirmation you got when you purchased the VIP and make sure you take it with you.
You might want to call ILAA tomorrow and ask about your itinerary.
Pat a Pan is on the list……
eeeeek!!!!
Riu Riu Chiu!!!!!!!!!!!!
153/Laurie-I did get back to you, you must have missed it. I would love to go to AA, am toying with going, not sure I can workout the time away.
122/ hi valerie…
my suggestion would be to make sure you are coming from a
clear eyed, unemotional, objective place before making your decision…
actions taken or made in the heat of anger or passion usually never
bring about the desired result… that’s the one thing i have learned from
hard and some very painful experience… there are other people those same
issues could be addressed to – would that be the first / best avenue to take…
are you sure you want to assume responsibility for as you say, keeping him from
‘’stepping unknowingly into traffic”… that’s assuming a lot of responsibility…
david’s an adult, i’m going to treat him as such, and respect him enough to make those kind of decisions..
i share many of the same concerns, deeply… but ultimately, it is he who is the captain of his ship…
think long, think hard, think objectively. that’s all i got…
Hi LLALAURIE Last year David posted a blog that said to watch the stand up 2 cancer show. The show gave guidelines for routine screening. I was over 50 & never had a colonoscopy. I went and found out that I had cancer. I had no symptoms. When David learned about what happened he called me after my surgery & when I was recoveringPecan Pie & Stand up to cancer arranged for me & my family to meet David. It was really special.
#146 DFT…Basic or Deluxe package?
haha, LLA Laurie! So funny! That picture!
Laurie walking into the men’s bathroom?
144/ rotflmbo rj – now that’s a real possibility
Deluxe…..
covered in angel wings……
Im not sure how accurate that set list is, I wouldnt throw all my eggs in one basket based on that.
hey everyone
long time lurker here but first time poster so i’m a bit nervous doing this
just wanted to ask, did david made it on the celeb gone good list?
hi lllaurie
RJ: Deluxe, please!
That way I can fit my David albums etc. Need David to sing at the funeral. My request!
172/ hi and welcome saipanda
nope, he didn’t make the list – this time…. 
AWE Candy I like that det list.
ROTF-Poor Laurie..what an AC experience that was…the Mens room in a Casino!!
Hi Saipanda! Welcome out of lurkdom.
set list sorry i’m getting tired
#174 DFT….Oh, you want the “Superstar” package!
Marge~Now I remember that story. Were you in AC? I think I may have met you or someone mentioned your name to me and told me your story. So you are doing well now? Did they catch in time?
margeBTBDX2-I dont see Oh Holy Night on there, and that is a song the AA Symphony has been tweeting about. So it makes me wonder…but the list had to come from somewhere, it is posted on the AA Program setlist.
Aw, maybe next year?
Thanks a lot GG!
RJ: Awesome! Works for me! Maybe the “Works for me” Package would work best! The all inclusive package! Lol
180/RJ-LOL-The Superstar package… Oh that made me howl!!
Valerie I know you are concerned… for me I have a feeing he will be fine? even if he isn’t #1?
and GG always seems to be one smart cookie
I was in AC. It was fun. I am doing well. So far so good.I just had my 1yr anniversary.
Candy yes I remember seeing O Holy Night and something about horns?
Laurie, I’d love to come to AA with you! Haha…I couldn’t say anything to you as you walked right into the mens room like you belonged there because I was too busy filming it..and laughing my head off! LOL Is there a Carmine’s in AA??
160# Thanks JoyF … The problem is my friend brought the tickets so she should get the email. The problem is that this time of the year at my work gets very crazy.
Marge oh that is wonderful!!
margeBTBDX2-you look fabulous!! In AC I was so happy to meet you, and was amazed at how wonderful you looked.
hello david from texas!
i’m actually laughing at myself for being so nervous about posting…i’ve never done something like this before
saipanda welcome! I don’t think so?
You are right Candy. I wouldn’t mind if he added OHN. Maybe he will mix it up a bit from night to night depending on how his voice is doing. He did say that these songs are a challenge.
http://twitpic.com/q6×5s Laurie thinks she is in the right place at the right time!
saipanda no don’t be nervous and hello!
Candy~Ooops! Sorry I missed your post. I don’t think you need to toy with the idea, just do it! I wouldn’t want you to be upset if you missed it. I can’t have my good friend upset (esp. since you’re a Jersey girl…never know what you might do) lol Awwwwwe, come on Candy! You only live once and you won’t be living much longer if you go, so at least you’ll go happy! haha
kimk~Oh yeah, the men’s bathroom…and they all watched me walk right in and didn’t say a word. They just laughed and laughed and laughed. Good friends, huh? lol
Hi GG! What’s up my friend? What show/shows are you going to?
Joanie~I take it you are feeling better? You must have had a bad virus…too much Tiramisu maybe? lol
183/ that’s what i’m banking on saipanda .
186/ i ain’t that smart – i just try to pay forward a lot of lessons learned
and wisdom acquired from living life… been told i think too much, and that
may be true, hahah, but like david, it ”works for me”
Don’t be nervous, Saipanda! Join in the conversation! It is fun! Everyone here is so nice!
Awesome Marge!
Is it the Ann Arbor Symphony that will be playing w/him or what?/
Also in Utah there is a scaled down orchestra right..does anyone know?
Hello saipanda! No reason to be nervous!
Laurie yikes!!!!
oh no better watch out for Baltimore!
lol though……
198/Laurie-Like the song says “Thats What Friends Are For…in good times..in the mens room…
Jana, yes, we get an orchestra in SLC!!
198/ hi llalaurie – going to baltimore – v i p style, hahaha…
WAIT A MINUTE HERE!!
does this mean he will do WYSYLM the whole tour????
eeep…………..
GG-164/ OK, I will. Think hard, that is.
Candy you are too kind. I appreciate the compliment. You look pretty good yourself. It was very nice to meet you as well. It’s nice to be able to put a face to a name.
Laurie, I am feeling much better thanks! But…now you mention it, I think it was too LITTLT tiramisu that was my problem! Oh, it was an awful virus!! Whatever it was. BTW, that photo is jiggly because I was laughing so hard as I took it! LOL
Im sure David already has a zillion tweets about the setlist…no wonder he doesnt tweet from the web much, from his phone he cant see all the tweet responses.
I hope you all have a good night. Work comes early! Nice talking to you
Hi Saipanda! Welcome and please don’t be nervous. We are a pretty cool bunch…just join right in!
Joanie~Yeah, thanks for heads up about the bathroom…I appreciate it! Glad to know that no one had my back and tried to tell me. haha I had such a great time in AC! I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time…I’m so glad I finally made it.
Marge~Glad to hear you are doing well. David has a healing spirit about him. He came into your life at just the right time.
208/ hi valerie… you will own whatever decision you make. your choice, your decision.
GG I beg to disagree on the not too smart part but the life experience part I do agree on.
hmm well have seen you on the not thinking too much part as well on occasion….
going with your heart instead
Joanie~That’s what I thought. I really want to hear it!! Now that it’s out there..haha I am getting excited.
hello joanie and kimk!
you all sound so friendly…i really like FOD, it has become a part of my routine to read all of your posts before i go to sleep. This is where i get my daily david fix. I live off your concert experiences and all. Thank you for always sharing your wonderful stories.
Laurie, oh yeah! I fogot about your excellent adventure trying to get to AC! I only wish I could see MJG’s photo of you, your button and the slot machine
I wish we were all sitting around the table at Carmine’s eating tiramisu!
Goodniht Marge! It was great to chat with you here on FOD! Take care, and hurry back!
212/ have a nice night margeBTBDX2 – will look forward to talking w/you again
I Love that Angels we have Heard on High is on it!
217/ hi saipanda – then you must stick around, and join in
we haven’t begun to share our concert stories… i think there will be tons of good ones coming out of the christmas tour 
Im guessing the AA Orchestra has been practicng songs, so the set list would make sense. David already knows the songs!
GG!!! Just read on twitter CFTH is #58????????
is that true???!!!
Jana, I can hardly wait!!
Sipanda, you should come and chat with us more often!
58…Holy Flip!!! Can someone confirm that?
kimk- 186/ Thanks for the post. I missed it earlier. I love this new format, but I think it’s easier now to miss ppl’s posts. It took me 5 minutes just to find my own…
Night Marge…nice to talk to you and hear your story! Sweet dreams!
kimk and GG~Watch where you are going at all times in Baltimore…your friends may lead you in the wrong direction and you never know where you’ll end up! lol
Joanie~I thought you said “I” was “Jiggly”! Haha Well, not haha, cuz it’s true! haha
Saipanda~Are you going to any Christmas shows?
Candy~LOL “That’s What Friends Are For”!!!! Are you kidding me? More like “That’s What Friends Aren’t For” !!!!! Haha
215/ ahhh, such is the dilemna, hahahah… balancing the sensitive heart with the hard head
…. i’ll go with the heart on those things that really matter, every time 
*Hanging out the Welcome Sign* Glad you stopped by Sipanda- pull up a chair and chat awhile,
Did I hear someone say TIRAMISU???????????????????
225/ hi candy – the billboard ranking – oh, it’s real baby – that’s from the official published chart
230/ wooo hooo, the party is on – whassup mary mary
LLALaurie-hahahahaha! We love you!!!!
gessh, I was going to go to bed early then the set list surfaced…I think Ive spent the past 18 months in a constant state of sleep deprivation!
http://vimeo.com/1387107

OMG MJG- Huggiesssssss-you are NOT allowed to be away so long, no excuse…work, kids,
MJG-wanna go to NY??
Silly Laurie///Not YOU! The photo was jiggly because I was rolling on the floor laughing while filming you calmly stroll into the mens room! Now, tell the truth…no one led you in there….you were just….confused! LOL
Ann Arbor Bound Fans – I will bring the stool and am on the aisle so I can rush the stage!! I wouldn’t put it past myself at this point. I am just all undone
Coming back with names and numbers for get together -
Where did all our guys go? RJ, Spidey and DFT????? Come out, come out wherever you are!!! I hope we didn’t scare you off!
Joanie~Oh, the infamous button trick! I think I needed a larger button! Maybe some more Tiramisu would have been the key! lol
Jana~I love the AWHHOH is on the list too. I love the ending!
MJG-ROTF- Did I hear someone say TIRAMISU??????????????????? Glad something brought you out of hiding!
GG- you would have fit right in with the AC bunch!!
MJG!! Hey girl!! You must have heard us talking about tiramisu!! I just told Laurie I wish I could see your photo of her, her button andthe slo machine! LOL
Candy- hello!!! I know, I miss everyone so much!!! Tonight I was baking for my daughters Birthday tea party tomorrow, 20 little girls running all over my house….Im so excited
as much as i would like to time zone difference plus work makes it difficult for me to join. nevertheless, now that i’ve actually started to post and had overcome my nervousness maybe i’ll try to comment as often as i could.

Candy- NY???? Are you trying to kill me????
244MJG-I can see the excitement in your eyes. LOL
Good evening everyone! Is this the “Riddle” David might sing? By Five For Fighting? I think he would do a great job http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgNPGBp4Ygg
Hi MJG!!!!! Let the partay begin…MJG’s in da house!!!!! I know you’re tired girl, but thanks for hanging with us. I knew Tiramisu would bring one of you guys out of hiding…just like cheesecake does for Richard! lol We were just reminiscing about AC. I can’t remember the last time I’ve laughed that hard. Joy and I continued to laugh on our excursion to the airport. Joy had such a laughing fit on the plane cuz someone farted, that she lost her phone! Good times…good times!!! lol
235 Ahhh! jana…what a lovely memory!
Laurie, you got plenty of buttons!
I have button envy!
MJG: Argghh!

68. Christmas from the Heart – David Archuleta
Thursday, November 19, 2009 12:04 PM
Christmas from the Heart by David Archuleta
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wpa/MRSS/topalbums/sf=4403441/limit=309/rss.xml
MJG-after watching the Kaleidoscope videos I know I wont be able to get enough!! NY is only a two hour drive! We can do it!
LLALaurie- You made me laugh so hard! You are the best!
Laurie hmm thinking we need to turn the tides a tad… are you going to Baltimore?
Valerie I think or hope the folks in the loop read the sites so perhaps they may know of certain concerns if there are any?
hmm seems in the past issues were addressed when folks posted what they may felt needed to be looked into as well? at least I hope so! but all in all I am ok with the general scheme of things so far as it seems to fit David? I don’t really see him as the Hollywood type or the JoBros type and such? but who knows I certainly have no idea how even the radio air play is run or ha the dang VH1 stuff… geesh
David sure deserves all the best though doesn’t he!
253/Laurie-We laughed till the wee hours of the morning!! What a great time we had!
saipanda: Good We’ll look forward to chatting with you more often!
MJG: To tell you the truth, I was there and I wasn’t really sure what Laurie was …um…doing. LOL
Laurie….that wasn’t you, was it?
GG maybe they read 68 as 58?
Hey Mary!!!
223/ it’s number 70 on the itunes home chart – they track and rank pre orders, the real time feed doesn’t – don’t ask why, i dunno, hahah… still humming along
GG, This is such great news!
ROTF-Button Envy. OH Lordy the things we find funny, and our poor guys, they laugh right along with us!!
Marciami~Hi! I still don’t know for sure about Holly. I thought Scott was gonna be there too, but not sure if he’ll get in on time since he is driving. I can’t wait to meet up with everyone! Thanks for arranging this. It’s funny that you picked Panera Bread, that’s where Joy and I go all the time for lunch. haha
MJG~What? Button? Slot machine? Rubbing? I have no idea what you are talking about! lol (Thanks for not sending that pic in)
262/ could be kimk
#235 Jana: Glad you found V’s page again. I had lost it. Recognize the video?
well Hot dang # 58!!!! That is sweet music to my ears!
kimk-Hey you!!!! Looks and sounds like you had a blast in D.C.!!!!!!
Candy WYSYLM will take on a different meaning if he does it now…. yes bury me now
superstar package I am in for…
no sprinkle my ashes along the tour route….
LLALaurie- I will save that picture for…………………hmmm a rainy day?
264/ hi maryanne – david’s a pretty great guy, so it all good
time to peel off, get ready to crash for a bit… will see all you lovely folks later – tee gee eye eff!!
Mary one way to put it… he was fantastic!
AA set list 60 minutes
Solo set list 80 minutes
271/kimk- “no sprinkle my ashes along the tour route” That cracked me up!!
Sweet Dreams GG
Goodnight GG! Another fun night on FOD!! Sleep well!
HI GG, yeah I think he will do just fine! He is wise and knows what he is doing. I am not worried about him at all!
Good night everyone! Happy dreams!
maryanne~I’m not sure if David is singing that Five For Fighting song or if it’s another one from a diff. artist called Gigi D’Agostino. I’m hoping for the FFF one though…he could totally kill that song!
Joanie~Button envy! ROTFL!!!!
Candy~I’m sure people are wondering why this stuff is funny…ya just had to be there. Staying up all night was a blast too. Remember when Joanie fell asleep and I took pics of her and then tried to put that towel elephant on her lap? She woke up and busted me!
kimk~I wish I was going to Baltimore. Just be aware of your surroundings is all I’m gonna say!
Nighty Night Maryanne
LLALaurie –
Panera was picked partly because the windows look out on Hill Auditorium – right there in front of us. I think Rebecca chose it.
Who are you coming with if you don’t mind my asking and do you know anyone else? Maybe others are coming and don’t know about it too.
Goodnight maryanne!
Laurie, you came real close to getting busted, alright….a knuckle sandwich! LOL
Haha, Laurie….you have world-class buttons!
LLALaurie- I have that picture of Joanie too, I will save that one too!!!!
Laurie-It was a def you had to be there thing. How else can you explain spending an hour talking about Tiramisu at 3:00 in the morning!
Joanie- You are just crazy!!! “world class buttons”
That weekend was just so incredible, so many memories, so many laughs!!!! And the roosters tried to keep up! They was great!
MJG-speaking of pictures, you have the pic of the century.
Uh oh MJG!! That’s what I was afraid of! LOL…what size cement shoes do you wear, anyway?
Night GG & maryanne! Sweeeeeeet Dreams!!!
MJG~Not only did you guys allow me to walk into the men’s bathroom, but now I’m being blackmailed with a picture of me and a button and a slot machine! Geesh, you guys are real keepers when it comes to the friend department! LOL!!
Candy~#275 Where did you get that info and why is AA shorter I wonder?
Candy- we talked about alot at 3:00 in the morning! I smile everytime I think about all of you!
MJG…haha, the roosters “tried to keep up”! LOL Didnt they just hold our purses while we had fun?? Actually, they were great and had a good time, too! We had SUCH a good time at Carmine’s!
290/Laurie- I think AA is a tiny bit shorter as it is actually the symphonys concert…David is their guest…the other shows we get David all to ourselves!
Candy-I sent in all my pics to FOD. I will email “THE” photo to you and the gang tomorrow.
MJG, it was great to meet Stina, too! She’s such a sweetheart, and such a great fan of David! And…she is a character!
MJG- I will be sitting down when THE photo arrives. Only way to prevent heart failure and crashing to the floor! NY is def on my radar…
Joanie-hahaha, I we taught you well!!!
LLALaurie- Relax you would have to do something really bad to me for that picture to get posted!
295/Joanie- I LOVED Stina! So enjoyed her enthusiasm, what a trip she is.
MJG, I look forward to getting that “artistic” photo! Such an interesting angle! Such great lighting! Oh! And…your buttons ain’t half bad either!
Joanie- I met Stina at the Newark show, we just kinda started talking and ended up out after the show with ummm a few people.
marciami~I am driving to AA with Joy and possibly Holly if she comes. I think Peacesign Pam is coming and maybe Donna? That’s all I can think of.
Joanie~Why thank you for saying that about my buttons! They’ve never been called that before! lol
Candy~Oh, the things we do for Tiramisu!
MJG~ah hah! Now Joanie is feeling the heat! Hey, btw, did you know before the rest of us that Mike wasn’t gonna be on the Christmas tour, you ninja?
Hello! I am here! lol
299/ROTF-Joanie dear I do think you are having a serious case of button envy! Now you are envious of Marys buttons…
MJG’s lips are sealed!!
Hey DFT
LLALaurie- Yes, I did know that, I kinda told you that in AC. I said he had some other projects etc….
MJG~Um, I’ll be waiting for that “pic of the century” as well. Let me know if you need my email address. I’m not missing out on that beauty!
Hi Candy!
Sorry everyone! I disappeared for a little while. Just was multi tasking as usual.
Joanie-well I thank you for that compliment…its been awhile since anyone has even noticed them! hahaha!
Hi Everyone!

You guys are seriously cracking me up!! Its AC all over again!
LLALaurie- I wouldnt leave you out! Even the roosters get that picture! FOD has it.
MJG~Oh, I must have missed that pertinent piece of information…must have been in the men’s room!

Interview with David?
http://www.standard.net/topics/features/2009/11/19/no-place-home-archuleta
No place like home for Archuleta
By Linda East Brady (Standard-Examiner staff)

Nothing says Christmas like coming home. That’s where David Archuleta hopes he’ll be this year — where his heart is, in Murray, Utah.
“In this business, if you get a little time off here and there, many people will stay out where they are working and just relax,” said Archuleta, who is currently in Los Angeles. “But I say if I have time off, even if it is just a few days, I try to get home.
“I am not sure where I will be at Christmas. The tour schedule goes until right before Christmas, and the fact is, there isn’t really just one place I live right now. But I still call Utah home, and try to spend as much time as I can there.”
At the very least, Archuleta will make it home during Thanksgiving week. He plays two shows at Abravanel Hall, on Tuesday and Wednesday. He has played the venue before, once at an event for Sen, Orrin Hatch, and once, this past summer, for a pops concert.
“It was so neat, because I got to sing with an orchestra and choir. That was amazing, because so many people are involved in something like that, in making the song come to life.”
Going places
Ogden producer and DK Studio proprietor Derek Keith has worked with Archuleta since he was 11. He most recently helped get demo and backing tracks ready for this Christmas album and tour.
Keith built a studio for the Archuletas in their Murray house, where they recorded the recent holiday backing tracks and also the demos for shopping Archuleta to labels post-”American Idol.”
Keith met the family by happenstance when he sold dad, Jeff Archuleta, a sound card on eBay and came to help them install the hardware. David was then 11, not yet having had his first brush with national fame on “Star Search.”
“But his voice was already ridiculous,” said Keith. “Maybe even more amazing than it is now, because of the surprise factor. I remember that first day Jeff had him sing me a Christina Aguilera song and I was like, ‘What? Man, this kid will go places.’ And he has, of course. I remember how terribly shy David was back then. And there is still some of that in him, but he has come a long, long way.”
Dean Kaelin, a renowned vocal coach who works out of Salt Lake City, started with Archuleta about the same time as when Keith encountered him. Kaelin not only works with singers on their performance chops, but also on technical issues. He said Archuleta already had a lot of innate style, but he was struggling with a paralyzed vocal chord when he first arrived, likely weakened from a viral infection.
“We started working together when he was going to do ‘Star Search,’ ” said Kaelin. “The vocal chord paralysis has resolved itself for the most part, but it is interesting. I think that is why that David still has a sort a special quality to his voice, that teeny bit of breathiness. It is to his credit that it is not a handicap for him. He worked through it and it gives his voice a sweet, slightly airy quality that appeals to listeners.”
Christmas time
Archuleta said he chose to do a Christmas outing for his sophomore effort simply because he loves the season and the sounds associated with it.
“I could definitely have gone more fun, more mainstream, more radio-friendly and all that, but that is not what I felt I wanted to do with this album,” said Archuleta. “The songs I am singing have a real reverence in them. I felt like I needed to really portray that. Give that to people — what Christmas means to me, the bigger picture. It was a way of giving back, for so much has been given to me in my life.”
Said Kaelin: “We worked together again after his recent summer tour. The pop stuff is demanding on his voice. He has to be careful because when he is doing those tours with the screaming people, he naturally tends to push heavy and loud.
“But this Christmas album demanded some very technical work — ‘Ave Maria,’ ‘O Holy Night’ — things he really had to sing out,” added Kaelin. “But I think his voice is sounding strong, and the Christmas program itself should be kind of nice — a gentler and prettier concert than the pop shows.”
Most of the songs on the album are classics of the holiday, but Archuleta did pen a new number. It’s called “The Melodies of Christmas,” and the song addresses what such music means to him.
“That song talks about the memories that Christmas songs seem to bring back,” he said. “This is the holiday that brings back the most memories. … Like, I remember sitting around the Christmas tree, singing those songs with family. I try to capture that mood.”
Discovering writing
There is no doubt that, though still in his teens, Archuleta has been able to tap into a world-class gift for interpretation. But lately, he has traveled far and wide to be mentored on crafting songs himself.
“For me, I am just beginning to write, but it is so much fun — I love it,” Archuleta said, “As a singer, it is your job to get the message across for the songwriter. But as a songwriter, you are able to tell your own story.
“Sometimes it is like journal writing, but out in the open. Some things I am like, ‘I can’t wait to share this.’ Other things are like, ‘Wow. Yikes! I am not sure I can share this with people.’ ”
Archuleta was spending time in Los Angeles, and previously in New York, to work on his next project with several experienced songwriters.
“That is the best way to learn it, to see how other people do things. I’ve found that everyone has their own way of doing things. You really learn a lot — and then figure out what works for you.”
The major lesson learned? Not being afraid to take risks, said Archuleta.
“I had to get where I was not afraid to look dumb,” he said, “That is the biggest thing, not thinking, ‘I don’t want to throw that out there, because someone else might think it is just dumb.’ You have to get over that. It’s been a great thing for me personally.”

I can’t watch it kimk – I can’t – I’m a total mess!
hopefully you will be experiencing it
my guess the song will be a tad different this time if he
does do it again
more mature David
more mature in his delivery…..
more mature than Tulsa….? The ultimate beauty that one was….I am just, speechless. I don’t even know what to do.
FG hmm I would love to be able to attend the CD signing in Utah
as would love to have
a signed copy of CFTH!
for me I would rather have the signing then the pic at VIP
the pic part scares me silly still
Good morning! OK…kimk…just popping in to say hi before work…then that Tulsa video…good thing I haven’t put my make-up on yet! I’m a mess!
FG what I mean he is more mature then right after AI
and the meaning to which he may sing the song may be a tad different
from a different place?
he has a funny way of just taking things he has done and improving what one would think was impossible…
LOL kimk you are so pretty why should you worry about the pic?
I can’t take much more maturity LOL
Hi Mary!
Hello and good morning Mrs. Mary
yes if he does that again I will be so mush
have a wonderful day!
FG oh you are sweet but not really the pic per se but me being kind of shy around him for some reason?
the one on one look in the eye…. urgh
still a tad nervous about seeing him in Baltimore.
I guess we will find out soon enough if he will be doing WYSYLM on tour!
what 3 or 4 days????!!!!!
I know kimk, the eyes – deadly!
Gotta go wake up the kids!
Anybody know what airport one would use to get to Ann Arbor?
thanks!
KIMK – the closest airport is Detroit Metro (DTW) are you cominggg???
FG oh I was thinking about it if hub would say ok? the fact I went to the Kaleidoscope event
and got home at 3:30 am well he is not yet on the David train so don’t want to push it as Baltimore
will be so fun
don’t want to do anything to rock the boat.
but ha I love an adventure and never know with me.
ok if I can’t go as Kaleidoscope
was so great!!
I was so blessed!
Is the flight expensive cuz of being near Thanksgiving?
FG just priced it and it was $316 from Raleigh to Detroit
ha thank goodness it didn’t say $99
that darn point and click finger is a bad girl!
~Good Morning Angels♥ Well, I suppose everyone knows by now the “buzz” is that David will be singing WYSYLM on tour…and I’m praying it is true! This has been one of my favorite songs since I first heard David sing it…I always know to have tissue handy when I listen, even today, because it touches me beyond words!
Welllll…I guess it depends on if you have the $ and what the hubby would think….mine would commit me but yours seems much more reasonable….
Hey Marylee! I hope it is true but at the same time I am gonna be a wreck. GOSH
Heather posted this last night…just found it …had to bring it forward! Brace yourself!!! http://twitpic.com/q5u18/full
364/Morning FG!! I know exactly what you mean. Not sure I could sit through it without breaking down!…but I’m sure willing to try
Gahhhhh that hair!!! so pretttttty!
~Morning Kim…reading over some of the posts…so you’re headed for Ann Arbor?!!! You go, girl!!
~367/FG that particular pictures is a perfect mix of the smexy David vs. the shy/boyish David…do you see it too?
FG umm I think my fam may yet stage an intervention…
ha he is ok as we all here do adventurous things I guess
he is just not used to me doing it
ha him yes but me no
have never stopped him from doing what he wishes to do
so it is hard for him to complain too much
Marylee!! good morning!!!eeeek can you imagine if he does WYSYLM!!!!!!???
we will be toast girl!!!!
..oops…”picture” is this font going to stay this small forever…I wear bifocals, you know..haha!!
Marylee oh not yet as Thanksgiving is a tough one. just thinking about it.
I am focusing on Baltimore and geesh maybe we will get an inkling what he will
be doing at the concerts soon!
oh nice pic!!!
~370/Kim…OMG!! Not sure if I will live through it, my friend…you will REALLY need to be squeezing my hand like you did at the Greensboro VIP during “Heaven”…and have the medics standing by!
#370/ Kim….what is that saying “what’s good for the Goose is good for the Gander”…haha!!
Marylee I supersized it all.
Marylee – yes I see it dang it.
kimk – I’d love to meet you – if not Ann Arbor maybe one day!
Marylee – I’d like to meet you too!
353~Kim…talking about the eyes in that picture…I may have told you this already…but when it was time to meet David at the VIP in Greensboro, I attempted to de-sensitize myself early on…started looking at this type of picture (closeup with eyes head on)…thinking it may help me out when I came face to face with him…guess what?
My plan didn’t work!
377/FG…it would be great to meet you some day…we’ve been meeting at FOD & chatting for quite some time! It’s bound to happen…I’ve met so many great people that I never thought I would!…and, in Baltimore, I’ll get to meet quite a few more David fans!
Speaking of WYSYLM…let’s all have a good cry this morning! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9U-CoMTdo4&feature=PlayList&p=38BBB391B6DFFDA1
Archuleta returns to Utah for holiday concerts
Music » Murray teen headlining Abravanel Hall concerts with Christmas songs.
By David Burger
The Salt Lake Tribune
Updated: 11/19/2009 04:27:36 PM MST
David Archuleta performs selections from his recently-released Christmas album at Abravanel Hall on Nov. 24 and Nov. 25. When David Archuleta performed in Utah for the first time after he finished second in the 2008 season of “American Idol,” the concert sold out.
When he performed in Utah this past March, the concert sold out.
So this November, tour organizers scheduled two concerts for Archuleta’s home state. The 18-year-old Murray pop singer will perform selections from his recently released “Christmas From the Heart.”
“To call Los Angeles home — I could never do that,” Archuleta said in a Tribune interview. “I like Utah too much.”
Archuleta is spending plenty of time in L.A. these days, writing songs for his second pop album, which his label hopes will be released in 2010. But Archuleta said that as much as he loves his fans to hear his music, he wants to make his sophomore effort count.
“I just want my personality to come out,” he said. “I want this music to have some character — my character. I want my stories to be in here. I’m learning how to become a songwriter.”
So far, besides Los Angeles, Archuleta has spent time in Nashville, working on his songwriting with a wide-ranging collection of collaborators, including Matt Squire (producer for Katy Perry, Taking Back Sunday, The Used), Victoria Horn (classical and opera producer), Daniel Bedingfield (brother of Natasha and writer of hit “Gotta Get Thru This”) and Kina Grannis (guitarist and singer-songwriter).
In between, Archuleta is writing a memoir, tentatively titled Chords of Strength , a reference to the partial vocal paralysis he suffered in 2004 but has now fully recovered from.
“It’s about what my life is, how I’ve gotten to this point today,” he said. “It’s my history of up to now. … It’s about trusting in myself and believing in myself.”
Now that he is college-age, many people want to know if he is considering a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, which he previously expressed interest in. “That’s a personal decision between me and the Lord,” he said. “I want to do what the Lord wants me to do.”
For now, Archuleta is looking forward to reconnecting with Utah family, friends and fans. For his hometown concerts, he will perform holiday songs, as well as songs from his best-selling debut album “Crush,” and possibly even show off some of his newfound guitar-playing skills.

Good morning! The other day I commented that I saw an article on Yahoo about the healthiest states to live in…the first was Vermont, the second Utah… I sent the article to my sister and said, here’s another good reason to move to Vermont (we have visited that state several times and it’s beautiful). I purposely avoided saying anything about Utah since my family thinks I’m nuts… So my sister sends me an email reply that is tagged: “blue skies, sunshine and Archuletta”…yeah, she spelled his name wrong, sigh…anyway, she says in the email, “hey sis, did you see Utah was the second healthiest?” No, sis, why would I notice that? You act like I’m obsessed with David Archuleta or something. Geesh! Family!

=============================================
Teamarchie is working at a new site (http://teamarchie.weebly.com/forum.html)
and is still in need of help with the gifting of CFTH. They need sponsors who will buy
and send the CDs to folks requesting (most likely International fans) or also the
MP3 versions, etc. Here’s a blurb from them:
“Our gifting is heavily supported by people who sponsor albums to giftees. If you
would like to participate in this program, please leave your email address and the
maximum number of cds you are willing to send, and in what format
(physical, itunes, mp3).
We will then email you the information for the giftees: their name, address, email,
etc and you will take over and send the gift directly to them. I will email you specific
directions/advice for sponsorship as well, so you will be properly directed in how to
fulfill this important role.
We are in heavy need for more sponsors for physical gifts. Thank you for your support!”

Wow! My email inbox is really quiet this morning…for a change. I think everyone who wants to go to the FOD brunch has contacted me. 57 total!
Waiting for 8:00 to call The Lion House to see if we can move to a bigger room. Don’t want to feel like sardines in a can if we can help it.
Trying not to think about the possibility of David singing WYSYLM in SLC…BUT, if he does, don’t think I’d be able to hold back the tears. I’m on the brink just thinking about it.
Good morning JoyF! Becky might repost the information again this morning. Woot Wooot! 57 is a great number! lol Sardines! I will cry if David sings WYSYLM! I can tell you that right now! lol
Someone above posted that Daniel and Natshia Beddingfield are brother and sister. I didn’t know that! Very cool!
450/ hi joy f!
DFT: I wonder if David knows just how many of his fans love his cover of that song…how much it means to us.
JoyF: Yes, they are brother and sister! Maybe that is why David will sing WYSYLM! Gahhhh!
DFT ~ thanks! Those rates aren’t bad at all!
Hi GG!
Got a busy weekend ahead of me with packing, confirming my ride to the airport on Monday, check in with airline on Sunday, charging cells phones, ipods, cameras and dvd player, shopping for my guys so they don’t starve while I’m gone, and most important..filing my weekly claim for unemployment on Sunday.
Awesome EL! Hope you can make it! squeeee!
Wow, JoyF! I still need to do some of that and more. haha filing for unemployment. I have to arrange my funeral plans with RJ! lol
DFT: I read that he was thinking of going into the business!
I’ll have to tell my husband to make all the arrangements with RJ should I faint dead away in SLC. 
haha, JoyF!
RJ has several David plans! I am thinking of the “Works For Me” plan. hahaha!
