Submit your fan picture of David for his new book…TODAY!

All of my pictures of David are so subpar, I’d never consider submitting them for David’s forthcoming book, “Chords of Strength.”  But one thing this “job” has showed me is that you David Archuleta fans have photography talent out the wazoo (don’t ask…my dad says it).

Submit your favorite pictures of David (just David…not you and David) to the publisher via email TODAY!  TODAY IS THE DEADLINE!  TODAY!  January 7th, 2010!!! Details below!

    Morning all, bringing this over from the previous thread. Good Morning everyone! We’ve fallen behind by approx 800 points since midnight (taken from the over 4000 that we had gained). I know we can do this, you’ve all done so great I know we can make it up. I know it’s hard to live life in 20 minute increments. David has given us two solid years of his life, we need to give him 6 more days of ours. Please vote for David:

  7. russ says:

    Hey Jeff! Voting from work every 20 min. Every fan of David from around the world should be voting if possible.
    We are passionate about this guy and placing him in the number one position. Together we can do it and let everyone know David will always be number one. You are so right, David has given us two solid years of hard work, we can certainly give him another six days of ours.

  8. ta says:

    hi kimk, jeffr, lct, patty-ann, lettie2, russ, & everyone here,

    I like this idea frm last page:
    113 kimk, EL I kind of think all this is a great way to come together and chat and keep things going until things can pick up again as well?

  9. angelbymyside says:

    Good morning everyone :D

    Gotta set my timer for 20 minutes! Off to vote.

  10. Diane says:

    Love the new look :)

    I was thinking the same thing about the Adam Lambert fans LOL!! I don’t want our David to come in second behind

    Adam. So Vote-Vote-Vote EVERYONE!!!

  11. ta says:

    thought David is not performing & I could catch up w/everything, but FOD & FODers kept me busy, hehe. Thanks for the fun.

  12. ta says:

    ha, abms, the timer works very well. thanks for the idea. I used my cell to set the 20 mins. & I can walk around & get some work done, hehe.

    hi Diane, yesssss, vote, vote, vote

  13. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Hello ta, Diane and Angel!!

    Jenny Not fair to mention video chat!! What a great idea!

  14. Patty-Ann says:

    Just thinking out loud! Then again, David always seems to come in at #2 on a lot of things!

    Hmmmmmmm I think #2 is he’s lucky number!! I really don’t mind if he’s #2 (I’d prefer #1) but coming in at #2 is not shabby — and I can just imagine David saying “It’s not always about winning.”

    Ok, done with that little thought – now BACK TO VOTING! HAHA LOL

  15. CM(Yakima) says:

    Good morning FOD!! It is cold her in Central Washington today! But, I guess I can’t complain since the Midwest and East is REAALY coooooooold!! Do we know if there are restrictions on the ap2 voting? Time or Xs a day?? SO far it lets me continue to vote over and over again but I don’t know if it will take all of them!!

  16. RJ says:

    Good morning all! Just eating my bowl of cheerios before heading out.

  17. ta says:

  18. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

  19. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

  20. ta says:

    ta ~ Hi! The seats we had for Stroudsburg were great. We were in box seats in the balcony so my vantage point was quite unique. I always enjoy taking pics of David in concert and sharing them. So many fans here at FOD take such beautiful pictures. I love looking at everyone’s pictures.

  31. David From Texas says:

    Hello everyone!
    Hello LCT, Kimk, GG, Ta, Patty-Ann, RJ, CM, Russ, JeffR, ABMS, Diane, Lettie, and all my FOD familia!
    How is everyone this morning!

    GG ~ Hello! Good to see you too :D

  35. David From Texas says:

    hi team….

    a note from the shineon web site for those who may be planning to participate… please read carefully, use good judgment, and follow the guidelines…..

    1. NOTE: Please only vote once. Do not create multiple usernames/comments. The top vote-getters and nominees will be combined with the SO-M staff’s list of nominees to create the final 10 nominees in each category. We will disqualify multiple comments from the same IP address using different usernames.

    2. Please note for songs, videos, albums, etc. They must have been released in 2009 (Ex: Since Taylor Swift’s Fearless was released in 2008 & made our top list last year, it isn’t eligible for Album of the Year this year…however the singles released from it in 2009 are eligible). If they rereleased the album with new songs though, then it can be considered, so Fearless Platinum Edition and Departure: Recharged could be considered. Sorry this year’s awards is coming a little later than last year’s.

    I love how several are checking in to let everyone know we are ONE for ALL!!!!! :)

  57. ta says:

    not tryng to be dramatic, David sang Proud Mary at MJ & Brooke has been on my mind.

    In my opinion, I don’t think it was very nice of MJ to suddenly make David stay & sing an extra song with them without telling David in advance. Remember? the time that I think ….Sara Bareilles…asked him to sing at her show & he couldn’t because of the contract rule.

    He was in the contract or not, MJ should have asked David permission first. At least he could prepare to perform.
    I think MJ took advantage of David to make his show fun & special. It was disrespectful to David.

    If I were David I would be very upset for not letting me know in advance, and kind of forced me to be on stage spontaneously. Another thing is, I might not know this song & won’t be able to sing & look silly on stage. Lucky that David knew that song.

    wooohooooo!!! hi, hi, hi everyone, GG, DFT, nina, pat a pan….i mean…palmtreephan, hehe.

  58. ta says:

    oh hi FG

  90. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Russ I think they may be a tad ‘inspired’ today… so let’s just keep chugging our best right now and see what tomorrow brings? I noticed after we passed Cook we had the ‘Shorty’ thing and to be honest I think folks saw the gap between the two to be insurmountable or ‘heck no way we would have to vote all day for 8 days’ kind of thing so the fever died down some … but #1 is really achievable and I say just keep chewing on that darn ole elephant and we may just end up weighing 2000 lbs (eating mega) but heck also #1!!!!

    Palmtree heck yes ‘Tenacity!!’ Oh… nope no milk and bread yet… but maybe I will send out the boy for some tonight if they change it to snow for real! Dang so want spring!! And heck a new song!! Or hint of one… greedy… :) )))

    Someone said something not long ago about how strange it is living one’s life in 20 minute increments…..my life of late:

    Get up. Turn on laptop. Vote. Turn on coffee. Hit the head (bathroom break). Fetch cup of coffee. Vote. Vote. More coffee. Peruse FOD Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote. Sort some clothes, load the washer. Vote. Empty diswasher. Rinse out coffee stuff. Vote. Make the bed. Water plants. Vote. Take stuff out of freezer for dinner. Watch the local forecast. Vote. Make a phone call or two. Vote a few times while on the phone. Shower and dress. Vote. Hair and make-up. Vote. Transfer stuff to the dryer. Take out garbage. Vote. Run to store for a few things. Vote. Fold dry laundry. Vote. Do some food prep for dinner. Vote. Watch a little boob tube. Vote while watching………etc………

    90/ Oh! That’s right, kimk! You can send your son out for all those annoying little errands now, right?? Leaves more time for you for voting!!! YEAH!

  95. palmtreephan (Lauren aka Kumquat Luvah) says:

  96. David From Texas says:

    What a busy day that is Palmtreephan! Whew!
    Kimk: I agree, we can do it! Just have to stay with it,
    Hi Jeani! haha

  97. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Jeani incentive…. and a huge one at that

    Palmtree ha he is offering so I am taking him up on it… sure that won’t last for too long.

  98. Tina says:

    Good morning, FOD! Well, it’s morning for me for another 30 minutes, anyway… :P

    Been voting voting voting. Had some extra time for that this morning since they didn’t open campus until 10am because of the icy roads. And we’re closing an hour early. Nice of them to think of how busy I am with David duties :lol: I’m sure that’s why they’re closing early, right?

    I know I shouldn’t complain after hearing about the weather in North Dakota (and I hope Lettie’s keeping warm in Wyoming!!) but it is seriously COLD here. And it’s just gonna get colder. They’re talking about 30mph winds tomorrow with wind chill 15 to 20 below zero. When did I move to Alaska??? Sheesh. My poor car hasn’t been able to move out of my driveway since Saturday. It’s so annoying to be dependent on someone else for a ride everywhere. I mean, I love that someone is nice enough to take me but I’m kind of independent minded, lol.

    Anyway. Hey, I can totally get behind an all night voting party this weekend! I’ll be stuck at home (grrrr) and am generally up all night anyway! :)

    I’m convinced that this whole 20 minute wait thing is part of some evil zen plot to teach me patience…it’s having the opposite effect…

  99. David From Texas says:

    Good morning Tina!

  100. Tina says:

    Good morning, David!! How are things in Texas? :D

    Why the heck are my posts always so long? Or at least, my first post of the day?? LOL, it’s like I store it all up since the last time I was here and it all comes gushing out at once. You’d think I was typing my thesis! :lol:

    Hi Tina! Love your long posts! It is cold in Texas and it is expected to get colder. brrrrrrrrr. No ice here yet. Can’t complain either when hearing about how cold it is up north. Like your thesis.

  103. palmtreephan (Lauren aka Kumquat Luvah) says:

    96/ lol, DFT….and that just takes me through the morning. One time, my hubby commented a little sarcastically about me being a “Lady of Leisure” (mutual decision….was a cop when we met but haven’t worked since I moved “down south” due to low pay for law enforcement here and hubby not too thrilled with wifey poo wearing a bulletproof vest to work every night..)….anyway, I said, “What do you think? We have little elves that climb out of the dresser drawers every morning when you go to work and take care of everything that needs to be done around here while I lay on the couch and eat bon bons and watch Ellen and Oprah?” He laughed. The next day, I wrote down every move I made. He was dumbfounded by the list. Now, I just hear every now and then about how lucky he is that his work day ends when he comes home but mine is 24/7 and is there anything he can do to help?

  106. David From Texas says:

    Palmtreephan: haha and awwwwww
    awww, David’s tweet.

  107. Tina says:

    David, aww thanks! :) Guess I’m writing my thesis here since I got lucky and was not required to do a master’s thesis for my program since it was an M.S. instead of an M.A. Never understood why the arts people had to write a thesis and the sciences people didn’t, but I won’t look a gift horse in the mouth! lol

    Do you have to complete a thesis or dissertation for your degree, David?

    Lauren: Yay for us! We’re summa cum laude, right?? :D

  108. David From Texas says:

    lol Palmtreephan. High Honors. hehe Love the long posts and wonderful stories.

    I am so happy to hear that so many of you are IN! It is allmost 2am here in China but I try to vote few more rounds.
    Because of David, of course! I love him, his voice, his music and his character!

    And some day I will meet him like most of you allready have!

    Nina

  111. David From Texas says:

    I will have to write a thesis. I have written several papers that work for my thesis papers already. At least I can use multiple disciplines and topics since it is Interdisciplinary because I can never make up my mind. lol

  112. David From Texas says:

    aww, Thanks for voting Nina! My uncle’s family lives in China. Guangzhou. Hope you can meet David one day. David is awesome.
    Yes, Don’t stop posting, Tina and Palmtreephan.

  113. angelbymyside says:

    Popping in to say hi on my lunch break.

    Still voting every 20 minutes. I have my timer set to go off every 20 minutes to remind me to vote otherwise I might forget since I am at work.

    Glad to hear that David is having a great time with family.

    PTP ~ Nice to see you :D

  116. palmtreephan (Lauren aka Kumquat Luvah) says:

    107/ Hahaha, Tina! I typed “Summa Cum Laude” originally in my post but thought that was pushing it a bit and changed it out for a simple “with honors”….how about a compromise with Magna Cum Laude?

    ……and when are you gonna embrace your southern heritage and break down and get that 4×4 that will climb out of your driveway with ease?? We are actually supposed to get a little snow here in NC tonight. I’m not holding my breath because it rarely materializes but, if it happens, I might have to find me a spot to dig some donuts. It’s been quite a few years since I’ve seen any snow around these parts. My sissy up in IL is getting enough for all of us. They are getting 10 inches today. Glad she broke down and got a 4×4 last year. She has to drive about an hour to work each day…..yucky!

  117. Angelgal3 says:

    Hi FOD! I’m still IN in the voting too. It can get frustrating because of the 20 min. wait but I soo want to see David pass AL’s face! LOL. kimk congrats on your son getting his license! Now you can have an errand runner if you need him to! I’m voting every 20 min. in between the housework that I must do before I go to work this afternoon. Love David’s tweet BTW. So glad he’s getting in some R&R with the family!

    Hello Angelgal!
    Wow, Palmtreephan. lots of snow. Good luck to your sissy.

  121. palmtreephan (Lauren aka Kumquat Luvah) says:

    113/ Hi, abms! I need to try the timer thing. I could probably squeeze at least a few more votes in per day if I was a little more accurate.

    …..or should it be “were a little more accurate”? NOT summa cum laude! lol

  122. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    David we sure can do it!!

    Angelgal thanks! he was sure he didn’t pass as the instructor was teasing him a tad… just gave him a
    paper with his license on it… :) )) Needless to say we are both very happy! Well right now I am… as just a run to get gas last night (first time by himself) seemed to take forever!
    Yes I know it is frustrating and well only comforting thing…. is it is for the ‘other’s’ as well!

  125. LCT says:

    Just want to check in and let you know my husband is voting too on his laptop. He’s funny! He calls out his time on the computer and I keep track of his 20 minutes and votes again and again. When he heard AL was in first place – he said no way! He does not like or respect AL especially after what he did – so he’s determined to vote!

  126. David From Texas says:

    We sure can do it, Kimk! ;-) David fans are awesome! awww, so happy for your son!

  127. palmtreephan (Lauren aka Kumquat Luvah) says:

    LCT….how cool is THAT?!? Great hubby you have there! Mine would laugh the whole way while dragging me off to the funny farm if I asked him to vote…….lol.

  128. JeffR says:

    Hi folks, according to my 1:00 calculation, AL has approx 113 people voting per hour, and D has 85 (when assuming 3 votes per hour per person). We’ve lost over 1100 points from the maximum gain we achieved up to midnight last night. Keep up the hard work, I know it’s difficult. http://tweeter.faxo.com/Best_American_Idol_Ever

  134. Angelgal3 says:

    kimk yes,I remember many moons ago when I went for my license I was sure I didn’t pass based on my bad parallel parking. LOL. They are funny at DMV as they don’t really give you any indication during the test as to how you did. Glad he’s got it now though! Hi DFT! Hope everyone is a votin’ fool today! LOL.

  135. Patty says:

    Hi JeffR……lol you calculations fantastic. :)

  136. David From Texas says:

  138. JeffR says:

    Hi DFT, I’m in and out living in 20 min increments. :-)

    Hi Patty, I think I’ve become obsessed, lol. I’ve been tracking the numbers since he moved into the #2 slot. Very happy until midnight last night, that’s when the trend reversed. We’ll make it happen. :-)

  139. David From Texas says:

    Yummy, Patty! I ate some also. Rosca de Reyes is good.
    Aren’t we all, JeffR, haha Multi taskers for the win.

  140. JeffR says:

    Kimk, congratulations on your son passing his drivers license test. I counted the weeks until I was 17 and got a license, literally checking them off on a sheet of paper, lol. A couple years ago I got a commercial drivers license to drive a school bus, the guy failed the two people in front of me at the drivers tests with the bus. He was like a drill sargeant. A cloudburst soaked me to the skin as I stood there at attention as he described what he wanted me to do with the bus. Afterwards he asked me if I had been a teacher, I said no, and he said, “you have something on the ball”. HAHA, that was the best compliment I’ve ever received I think. OH, and I passed.

  141. Patty says:

    DFT……did you get the little doll?? I did so that mind that I need to cook in Feb 2 correct…since I from south America we don’t do this kind of things…….. :)

    JeffR……I totally agree we became obsessed all for David lol……look at I am sick and still voting lol….One week ago GG was sick too….but she was here too. :)

  142. David From Texas says:

    Congrats, JeffR on getting yur commercial drivers license. I didn’t get my drivers license til I was 21.

    Hello Everyone! Stopping by for a few during my lunch break. Heard a hollywood reporter say this morning that Oprah is looking to produce a talk show for, Adam L. I cant believe it. Oprah is getting on my last nerve. Sorry any Oprah fans. I voted & I can get one more vote in before my lunch is over.

  146. JeffR says:

    DFT, thanks, I actually learned to drive when I was 8 and did a lot of yard and farm driving, so it was a long stretch between 8 and 17, lol.

  147. jeani /UT says:

    I have been accomplishing more in the 20 minute intervals.

  148. JeffR says:

    Hi Beth, I hear ya, anything for a rating. Enjoy your lunch!

  149. David From Texas says:

    Patty: In Mexico and Guatemala, the person who finds the doll in their piece of rosca must throw a party on February 2, “Candelaria Day,” offering tamales and atole (a hot sweet drink thickened with corn flour) to the guests. I didn’t get the baby doll.
    Hello Beth! I heard about Oprah. hmmm.
    Jeani: haha. I vote on the 20, 40, and on the hour.

  150. jeani /UT says:

    12 minutes 12 seconds. Sick Sick Sick.

    Hey Jeff! I know. Thanks, having Lasagna, not bad at all,lol. Hope you are having a great day.

  152. David From Texas says:

    That is cool, JeffR. I would visit my grandparents at the farm, but we did the farmwork by hand.

  153. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Jeffr oh goodness I LOVED that story… hey you know there are still quite a few folks that have all to get together for this tour coming up! Hope we all get together and celebrate this dang #1 spot we are getting him into some time shortly! Doing the math some not as much as you but we had to know the AL folks would wake up and say uh oh!

    Palmtree yes I am sure he was cruisin… he wants a Camaro… ha he does deserve it as he really is the best but dang a Camaro???!!! every kid in school would want a ride…
    ok freakin out… mental pic not good…

    Wow Beth that is something. Who are Adam’s management team anyway? He has gotten constant press since he was on AI. Just don’t see him as a talk show host though. LOL

  157. David From Texas says:

    Kimk: AI fans are probably saying Uh oh! It is a good thing. awww, a Camaro!
    How are you, Beth?

  158. Patty says:

    Ohhhhh jeani/UT lol you are just funny…..I know the waiting makes me more sick lol :)
    DFT…I love atole too……luck you that you did not get the baby doll. I told my husband and my friends that I will cooking tamales from my country lol …… :)

  162. Beth says:

    My drivers license story. I didnt get mine until I was 20. I got a permit, My Dad took me out driving once, maybe twice & I wanted to take my test. Well, my Dad didnt think I would pass it without more experience so he made a bet with my grandma on whether I would pass or not,lol. My dad bet no & my grandma bet yes. So my brother took me in my mom’s car & I made him stop like 10 times on the way there to practice parallel parking,lol. We get there & I pull of a parallel parking masterpiece. I would’ve got a hundred on my test, but he said I didnt turn my wheels when we parked on a hill. Gosh, I would’ve if I had known we were on a hill,lol. There idea of a hill, pretty lame. So my grandma won the bet. Got a higher score than anyone in the family,lol. I didnt let them forget that, for a little while anyway,ha,ha.

    Jeani: Tamales are yummy aren’t they. yummy!

    Love all the avi’s!

  171. Angelgal3 says:

    Interesting thing I just read on AOL that AI is going to focus less and less on Simon this year as they ease him out so he can produce XFactor here in the US. It said that people watching can expect to see him less and less and that they will focus on Ellen D.

    Love the top photo with the “balcony perspective!” Thanks ABMS for all the great concert photos!! You took some very nice pictures from up in the balcony! :)

    ROXANNE I’ve been enjoying your video since yesterday! Thanks! You have great splicing abilities! :)

    #161 Hi! just popping in from lurking today! I am sick of the whole …..well…..Justin B. and Adam L.. David has so much talent and I feel like he ha been working his ….well…….rear off! to get where he is! Wish he had more support, but I have to say that past artists do appreciate him and I am looking forward to many years of success for David. So I will turn the negative into a positive, like David does! lOL! I have been voting like crazy today and it has been snowing and snowing and snowing!

  179. David From Texas says:

    Hi Suttygal!

    Hello Munkmusic! Great to look at the positive!

  182. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Jeffr ha I did take him to the Chevy place and the Dodge dealer… the Dodge Challenger looks like the ‘Yee Haa’ car from The Dukes Of Hazzard… and well the new Camaro… oh man thinking my insurance company and the police will be very happy with all the fees they will be collecting…
    dang they are a young lad’s dream car!!
    Have been thru it before and to be honest that may be why I am thinking urgh…

  183. JeffR says:

    Beth, great story!

    Hi ABMS, great pictures! And I was there!

  184. LCT says:

    Munkmusic, I so totally agree with your comment! I am so tired of this, too and I will always support David! He has true talent but just because he’s not what is “in”, people ignore him. I really blame the public. In many ways I feel these artists are not very strong in charater or beliefs. David has a wonderful character and knows who he is and wants to be!

  185. Patty says:

    Kimk ….hmmmm meatloaf sounds pretty good….:)

  186. JeffR says:

    Kimk, ohhh, will you adopt me? I’d like a new Challenger, lol. Yes, the insurance company would have a field day with that.

  187. Angelgal3 says:

    abms I’m sure david will be watching if he has any free time. he loves music!…. Munk,I’m with you on those two. They may have all the marketing behind them but it’s questionable at this point if either will last. David has WAAYYY more talent than the 2 of them combined and he’s an artist who has staying power. We’ll be seeing him for years to come I suspect.

  188. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Munkmusic Hi! David has more talent in his lil’ finger then they both do combined! Just isn’t talent that makes them famous.. or infamous depending which way you look at it… or urgh not look at it.
    Voting like a banshee!!

    hi Team Archuleta! :D
    Shineon reminder!
    a note from the shineon web site for those who may be planning to participate… please read carefully, use good judgment, and follow the guidelines…..

    1. NOTE: Please only vote once. Do not create multiple usernames/comments. The top vote-getters and nominees will be combined with the SO-M staff’s list of nominees to create the final 10 nominees in each category. We will disqualify multiple comments from the same IP address using different usernames.

    2. Please note for songs, videos, albums, etc. They must have been released in 2009 (Ex: Since Taylor Swift’s Fearless was released in 2008 & made our top list last year, it isn’t eligible for Album of the Year this year…however the singles released from it in 2009 are eligible). If they rereleased the album with new songs though, then it can be considered, so Fearless Platinum Edition and Departure: Recharged could be considered. Sorry this year’s awards is coming a little later than last year’s.

    OK LET’S GET TO IT!!
    WOW!!

    You guys got past 42,500 already!!! WAY TO GO!!!!

  208. Patty says:

    201# Forever is right…..David is here to stay forever!!!!!!
    I am going to get some rest since last night I could not sleep very good…… I will see all more later!!!!!!! :)

  209. Angelgal3 says:

    Alot of these pop artists tend to be flash in the pan types> they use alot of autotuning in the studio and smoke and mirrors when they perform in concert to disguise their average voices. All David has to do is get up there and sing and his audience is mesmerized. Very few people have a voice like his. The fact that he doesn’t need alot of bells and whistles to get his fans to come and see him time and time again tells me that he’ll be one of the great ones.

  210. David From Texas says:

    The path to becoming The Civil Wars began when the two were set up on a blind songwriting date by mutual friends. White had played in rock bands around the Southeast; Williams had enjoyed a successful career as a Christian singer-songwriter, having sold more than 250,000 albums worldwide, earning 11 Dove nominations in the process and even co-writing “Yesterday,” recorded by “American Idol” runner-up David Archuleta.

  211. angelbymyside says:

    Angelgal3/210 ~ That is so true. A lot of pop artists are here today and gone tomorrow. David has true talent and he doesn’t need to use tricks to make him sound better. David’s voice is superb….masterclass!

  212. JeffR says:

    Angelgal3, that is so true. I’ve said since I first saw him on AI, here’s a young singer who can just stand there and sing, no need for flashing lights, dancers, or any distractions. All attention focuses on him due to his sheer talent and presence. Anyone who said David didn’t have stage presence, simply wasn’t looking. :-)

  213. Patty-Ann says:

    Kimk! haha gotcha!

  214. David From Texas says:

    Difference of 14468 on the tweeter poll! GOoooooooo Team!!!!!

  215. Angelgal3 says:

    DFT that was an interesting article. Waiting for Yesterday is one of my fav David songs too!

  216. Patty-Ann says:

    JeffR – so true, so true – when you’ve got it you’ve got and David DEFINITELY has it!
    David just needs to show up on a stage – and we’ll all be there. I love it – it’s just his pure voice and talent, his charisma, his gentle nature and the those POWERFUL emotions he invokes in all of us! WOW — just thinkin’ about it makes me SHAKEY!! haha

  217. Angelgal3 says:

    JeffR I’m listening to FOG as I type. it’s a perfect exam[ple of a cover that David does that shows us his exemplary talent. Just beautiful and you can’t hear a pin drop in the audience while he sings either.

  218. LCT says:

    Hey guys, I’m going to bed for a few hours since we are getting up at 3:00 am to watch THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME between Alabama AND THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS! But I will resume voting while I watch the game! So…. HOOK ‘EM HORNS! :) :) :)

  219. David From Texas says:

    Angelgal: WFY is one of my favorite songs also!
    LCT: Good night! You are awesomeage! :D :D :D :D

  220. angelbymyside says:

    LCT ~ Sleep well. Thanks to you (and your husband) for voting. :D

  221. Angelgal3 says:

    Well,gotta go to work now but I’ll keep up my voting there! I’ll BBL tonight though. have a great afternoon everyone!

  222. angelbymyside says:

    DFT ~ Thanks for the link to the article about Joy Williams. I think Waiting for Yesterday is my favorite song that David sings. Well one of them at least. haha

  223. David From Texas says:

    Have a great afternoon, Angelgal!

  224. Patty-Ann says:

    When David walks into a room — you can’t take your eyes off of him — that’s some kind of presence!!

  225. David From Texas says:

    ABMS: I love WFY also. Well, I love them all. haha I can’t choose between the left side and the right. All are my favorites.

  226. David From Texas says:

    I am going to be in lurking mode while I read some, but I will keep voting.

    Off 2do some massive voting, I have been battling it out …driving in the snow. Almost crashed x2, so glad I made it home in one piece. I just about had a heart attack lol…

  229. Attitude/Candy says:

    Ha, Im finding myself hurrying through stores when I’m out doing errands so I don’t miss too much time voting!!
    Did I detect a little snark in Davids tweet about loving spending time with family. I probably wouldn’t have paid any attention but he followed it with a haha, which made me go hmmmm… :)

  230. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Candy hi! hmm… dunno.. could be but bet whatever it is it isn’t boring…

    EEK!
    ALmost to 43,000 already??!!! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!
    http://tweeter.faxo.com/Best_American_Idol_Ever

  231. Patty-Ann says:

    Candy – I hope you’re right about the snark. I was thinking the opposite that David really misses them so much — would he ever give this up because he felt there was too much time on the road and away from them? He didn’t exactly grow up in the business so he’s not used to it — being away so much I mean. I know this is his dream though.

  232. Sylvia says:

    kimk – Just here for a second. I need your mailing address. Could you please send it to me? Thanks. :) mirage1982@yahoo.com

  233. Attitude/Candy says:

    232/ Hi Patty-Ann-I think now that David has become the “man of the house” that may have changed how he feels about being away. He may feel more responsibility to keep an eye on his mom, siblings, house, things in general. As long as David can get home and visit he will be fine being on the road, he is 19 and not many guys his age live at home nowadays. I still feel that down the road we may see a move for him to Nashville to be closer to writers, producers.

  234. angelbymyside says:

    Candy ~ Hi! Sending an email your way in a few.

  235. judieann says:

    We tried so hard to get David on Oprah…e-mailing her etc…..read at Rickey’s that Oprah is going to devote a show to Adam….and wants the audience filled with his fans….NOT FAIR….

  236. Beth says:

    Hello Everyone! Cant stay. By the time I read the comments from where I left off at lunch time, theres not enough time for me to comment,lol. I got a vote in at the Twitter thingy though. OK, gotta go, talk to you, oh, whoops, I think I have about 3 minutes left,ha,ha. Well, almost goodbye,lol.

  237. Patty-Ann says:

    THANK YOU CANDY!

  238. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Woot! Over 43,000!!! Way to go David fans!

  239. Beth says:

    Hey judienne, I heard this morning from a hollywood reporter that appears on a morning show on a rock station every day that Oprah is going to produce a talk show for AL. Like I said, Oprah’s really getting on my last nerve,lol.

  240. Beth says:

    OK, now I have to go,lol. TTYL

  241. Attitude/Candy says:

    236/Hi judieann-I gave up with Oprah..I guess Adam is more of a ratings draw then David is, and controversy brings rating! There is nothing controversial about David. He’s like Apple Pie and all things good. And while that is what the world and ratings should be about, evidently its not!

  242. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hurry Back Beth!

  243. pam05 ♥ Thankyou David, for this Spiritual Jorney you have given us ♥ says:

    I am so disappointed in Oprah :( Why must Adam be given everything on a silver plater and David has to crawl his way up to the top? I hear he will be on the 13th….Grrrr ….I just had to vent :(

  244. angelbymyside says:

    Candy ~ Check your email. :D

  245. Attitude/Candy says:

    ABSM- I’ll keep an eye out for it. I was at the mall a bit ago and coming home there were brine trucks spraying the expressway. I was having Stroudsburg flashbacks and how it took forever for me to get to Philly that day! We did turn the trip into an adventure, didnt we!

  246. judieann says:

    #240: Mine too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  247. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    AL is getting a talk show….
    urgh… hide the kiddies… will this be live and hopefully in the evening?

    VOTE!!
    http://tweeter.faxo.com/Best_American_Idol_Ever

  248. angelbymyside says:

    Oprah who????? lol Oprah disappoints me!!

  249. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Pam I don’t see David having a talk show though? Not his style… but would be nice to see David on them!

  250. pam05 ♥ Thankyou David, for this Spiritual Jorney you have given us ♥ says:

    kimk
    AI is getting a talk show? They already dominate the fox network lol,

  251. angelbymyside says:

    pam05 ~ No…Adam Lambert is getting a talk show. :(

  252. It is so wonderful to see David’s fans all uniting to get him to the #1 spots he so deserves. It’s like were all on a mission to accomplish this. And like most of you have stated all he needs is that glorious voice no gimmicks and I applaud him for his character to be just who he is and nothing else. Onward forward vote, vote, vote…….!!!

  253. Patty-Ann says:

    Oh forget Oprah (I’m sick of her – just venting – just kidding)! haha

  254. jeani /UT says:

    I don’t watch Oprah and I wouldn’t watch AL. It won’t have anything to do with my life.

  255. Sylvia says:

    kimk – See #233. I have something to send you. I’m going to be leaving soon so wanted to be sure you saw it. :)

    If anyone sees Trudy today…..be sure to wish her a Happy Birthday!!!

  256. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    I actually can understand them doing that as it is the person or outrageousness of him that has gotten him that?
    David is the opposite of Adam and well no way he is going to be what the TV folks want…. so I guess all is good by me.

    that being said how about we rock the vote!! :) )))

  257. pam05 ♥ Thankyou David, for this Spiritual Jorney you have given us ♥ says:

    What??? Adam Lambert is getting a talk show???

  258. Attitude/Candy says:

    244/Pam05-go ahead and vent. Regardless of how any feels about Adam, it is Oprah that called the shot to have him on! Grrrrr

  259. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Sylvia Hi! Sure will email you now! Just got on and didn’t see that! Oh what is it??

  260. Tina says:

    Afternoon all :D Got called away unexpectedly earlier — didn’t mean to just drop off the face of FOD… lol

    Been busy with registration today; made lots of new student IDs! I felt like asking them all to vote on the tweeter while I was at it but decided maybe that wouldn’t be such a good idea while I was working, ha! I did ask my coworkers though. I’m gonna email them a link when I get home and they’re gonna vote tonight. :P

    Been considering Lauren’s advice about embracing my southern heritage and getting a 4×4 so that I can actually get around in the winter. Looked online. Why the heck don’t they make a 4WD car?? Seems to be lots of AWD but I’ve heard iffy things about how useful AWD really is. Hmmm. LOL at me looking at cars based on the one or two months a year when we actually get winter weather here. Its really become a nuisance though…

    Okay. Has it been 20 minutes yet??

    Sylvia: If you’re still here, HI!! :D Long time no see!!

  261. angelbymyside says:

    Oprah has gotten on my last nerve!!! hehe

  262. Tina says:

    Psh, there I go with the long posts again… :lol: It’s a sickness…

  263. Kristelme says:

    Adam Lambert is not getting a talk show, where did you all find this? Hes only going to be on Oprah with Susan Boyle.

    Just had to delurk to say this lol

  264. grannycrush says:

    Hi everyone I think I need an intervention. I turned down 2 invitations this week because I wanted to stay home and vote for David on the Tweeter thing. I guess I am asking for an intervention in the wrong place, because you all are as obsessed as I. Of course, I didn’t tell my friends why I was not going to take part or there probably would be an intervention.

  265. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Candy I am not upset about AL and lol I can only imagine the umm craziness! But I do wish for David the same thing I was venting about before…

    I guess I will post this vid again…
    says it for me in a way
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYe6tmrFxbw

    quality backing, producers, managers, PR folks, etc…..

  266. Attitude/Candy says:

    AL a talk show??? seriously…well that should be interesting! Grab the baby’s and gray haired ladies…

  267. EL says:

    My husband just emailed me an article about Adam Lambert and how the FCC received over 5000 complaints after the AMAs. I don’t get it? Why is it that if your idea of singing and entertaining is to scream and hang you tongue out while simulating lewd acts acts on national TV…you then become very popular and are invited onto all the talk shows, etc.? Not to mention leading in the poll for WHAT? Best American Idol Ever? Puh-leeze. Archangels unite! Let’s show this country who the true “Best American Idol” is!

  268. angelbymyside says:

    grannycrush ~ haha…an intervention! We may all need one.

  269. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

  272. Sylvia says:

    #260 kimk – something I got right before Thanksgiving that I promised you but I ended up moving a few days later and I’m still getting unpacked but I found this and wanted to be sure to get it to you. I’m going to the post office in a few minutes and wanted to get this out to you.

    Tina – hello!! Nice talking to you again. I’ll be back later and I’m sure I’ll talk to you then since you’re on later at night like I used to be.

  273. Kristelme says:

    Kimk, well as far as i know both he and Susan Boyle will be there to perform and also chat. He is definitely not getting a chat show, dont think he would even have time for it.

  274. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    TRUDY!!!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

  275. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

  276. angelbymyside says:

    Kristelme ~ Thanks for clearing that up.

  277. angelbymyside says:

    Today is Trudy’s birthday??? HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRUDY :D

  278. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Kristelme thanks for the info… funny combo Susan Boyle and Adam?

  279. Joy says:

    Hey there. Snowed in a bit today. Not too bad, about 5 inches. Forgot to buy gas for the new snowblower, so we had to shovel today. It’s ok, I could use the exercise.
    grannycrush: SOME people may need an intervention, but not us. ;) Seriously, tho, it looks like we’re all nuts if we vote for David in every category in the twitter poll. I haven’t voted yet. But I saw that he’s leading in some off the wall categories. I would vote for him for music, humor, celebrity, maybe health. But customer service? travel? sports? Yikes.

  280. Attitude/Candy says:

    266/kimk-you and I are on the same wave length about quality producers, writers!!! David is doing good, but by the time the next cd is released it will be close to two years between cd’s. In the music business that is an eternity not having a song get radio play! I really hope in the meantime Jive/Azoff have some tricks up their sleeve to keep David in the public eye!

  281. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Sylvia eeeek! I know what it is!! :) )))))) Thank you!!!

  282. Kristelme says:

    kimk yw :) i thought i better delurk and bring the info before people here get too angry over nothing lol

  283. Attitude/Candy says:

    Woot Happy Birthday Trudy! Hope you have a super special day!

  284. Joy says:

    Does anybody really think Adam would opt to do a talk show now? Heck no. He wants to get out there and perform. Sell some cds. And travel around. Didn’t believe for a sec he was hosting a talk show.

  285. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Joy umm I guess I never thought about it… but wouldn’t be that surprised if it was offered….
    Just know it wasn’t Davids kind of thing…

  286. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    lettie well that one might not be true… he may be on Oprah though?
    vote when you can as we are doing great! hope you are staying warm!!

  290. burkey says:

    saw the post about AL on the Oprah show……….
    just to bring a little perspective about why…….I saw this over at Soul David

    from peter:

    “No surprises there. Oprah is close to the 19 Family, and they are desperately trying to save Adam Lambert’s career. His album needs to go gold during Season 9. David is not with 19 Management, so I don’t think he will ever appear on Oprah.”

    probably true…….trying to save AL from himself………lol

  291. Kristelme says:

    kimk im usually doing lots of things at the same time, i might get addicted to this site and never leave lol

  292. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Burkey funny stuff… I just want for David to be and do what he wants… whatever that is?
    but sure darn miss him already and what is it a few days… thanks for the post.

    BTW……..I’m home from work now & back working on the tweeter/faxo thingy
    I don’t tell my family these things or I will get an intervention also……haha

  294. Attitude/Candy says:

    291/burkey-Ha, good one..save him from himself! Also good point about David not being with 19 management. If anyone can save Adams career it is Oprah, she has the midas touch! Davids doesnt need saving, it just needs good promo! :)

  295. Joy says:

    Kristelme: Why, we have no idea how that might happen. LOL!

  296. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Kristelme got it down to a science… have to put my real duties on paper and reward myself if
    I get them done… too much fun gabbing, watching vids, venting, fangirling, and of course voting!

  297. angelbymyside says:

    burkey ~ hi! I don’t follow any news about Adam but do you know how his album sales have been so far? Isn’t he selling?

  298. Attitude/Candy says:

    Dinner Time- Off to the kitchen.. BBL

  299. burkey says:

    298 ABMS

    I saw somewhere that AL is selling good as far as singles but poorly as far as his CD
    BUT……….he ought to………he has had MEGA promo unlike almost any other idol, especially for a non winner!

  300. Kristelme says:

    burkey its the other way around, he is selling CDs but his single is not doing very well,

  301. burkey says:

    some of AL antics on stage are really OTT and rated less that PG, certainly not for a family oriented type of entertainment
    I can’t believe they let him get away with that stuff on the AI summer tour
    kids in the audience & all…….

  302. burkey says:

    310 Kristelme

    OK….guess I had it backwards………lol

  303. jeani /UT says:

    We all get a little …. don’t know what to call it when David is missing.

  304. Fiona says:

    El, you are right! It is just crazy that Adam Lambert is getting all this attention now! And David sings like an angel AND is always polite and respectful!

  305. grannycrush says:

    Yes, Joy, I think that some of those twitter categories do not apply to David, although, I did get a giggle out of how creative some of the people were in giving their reason why they nominated him in those areas. I did music, celebrity, humor, and health. He does talk about eating healthy, running, and working out a lot, so that didn’t seem to be too far of a stretch. I am mostly wanting him to pass AL in the Best AI poll. I have four grandboys and I really don’t want them looking up to the likes of Adam Lambert. It has nothing to do with him being gay either. I have no problem with that, but it is his choices he makes while performing that I have a problem with.

  306. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    jeani umm kooky…. we need us some David…

  307. dashingdavid says:

    don’t give AL any time on this site! Concentrate on David and what we need to do to keep him going!
    I love what someone once said not too long ago-David is at the ground surface of the beginning of his career. As he matures and becomes older and more knowledgable in the music industry, well, he already has it together, he will blow people’s minds…as if he is not doing that already right?
    It’s kind of like a volcano erupting! little by little David is building and soon he will explode!
    Just wait until his new CD comes out….this is going to be a great year for DAVID!!

  308. angelbymyside says:

    kimk ~ I absolutely love that video of Ray singing HYAMLC with David. I love the look on David’s face when Ray sneaks up on him. Priceless!!!

  309. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    dashingdavid… umm explode?
    oh dear I can NOT wait as well for his new music!! would love a peak some time soon… just what type of music will he do?!

  310. Fiona says:

    kimk #307 thank you for that link! It is impossible to watch that video without laughing hysterically! Just what we needed!

  311. angelbymyside says:

    g2g

    have a great evening

    bbl

  312. Patty says:

    Hello Everyone!!!!!!! I am back…..I think now in this days people love the people that make controversy…they love the drama…but they don’t care if they are talent or no. In David case he is so talent person but he doesn’t have all the drama the other artist have and I think that why people love to controversy…
    How everyone is doing…I am feeling much better… I think I have to rest for a little bit lol. :)

  313. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    angel really the whole thing is glorious!! love when they step out in front of each other… when Ray sings so bad but it sounds so great… love the sassy David teasing him about being old… dang!

  323. Patty-Ann says:

    Kimk – that HYAMLC vidoe is great! At 2:42 I love how David steps back out in front of Ray like the little ninja he is. David could certainly be on TV – all of that was impromptu and it was SWEET!

  332. CM(Yakima) says:

    I’m frustrated because every time I’ve voted on the faxotweeter this afternoon, a vote has been added to AL at the same time!! They are really out in force for him!! I wish we could round up the rest of the the fans to vote!!

  333. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

    Hey Kristleme! It was me who talked about AL getting a talk show. A hollywood reporter who has appeared on a morning radio show here in MN for many years & is usually extremely accurate in his info, said that Oprah will be producing a talk show for AL sometime this year. Anyway, I dont want to give him anymore time on FOD, just wanted to clarify.

    Hello Everyone! Gotta go exercise for a little bit with my mom, be back soon. Maybe it will help me thaw out,lol.

  334. JeffR says:

    Evening everyone! My latest scientific numbers taken from the last hour look like this. Currently approximately 87 voters are working for AL, and 109 for DA. That equates to 261 votes by AL voters, and 327 votes for DA in the last hour. This is much better than my 1 oclock sampling that had it as 113 AL voters to 85 DA. WHOOHOO, thanks for bringing it on! We can’t relax though, we are still down just over 1000 votes from the advantage we held at midnight so we need to regain that to keep moving forward. Keep doing the great job, I know it’s difficult, we can do it for David! ;-) http://tweeter.faxo.com/Best_American_Idol_Ever

  335. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Jeffr on it and thanks!! love the info!!

  336. GG_doorsfan says:

    334/ hi beth – i think the terminology is a little off… the word is oprah is currently producing a single show /segment later this month centered around him… have seen nothing about the production or creation of a full talk show…

  337. David From Texas says:

    woot woot, JeffR! Thanks! I have been on it while reading! Great job team!

  338. JeffR says:

    Kimk, thanks! We’re trending back upward again! :-)

  339. GG_doorsfan says:

    hi jeff r and cm/yakima!! you’re my kinda guy jeff r – like the info you provided ;-)

  340. Russ says:

    Hello everyone. Dinner (delicious chili btw) is out of the way and ready for a night of voting and chatting with all you wonderful people.
    I feel certain that David will finish in the #1 spot on the Twitter Poll.

    I hope everyone is staying warm. Some parts of the country are extremely frigid. If any of David’s fans know of someone that is having a hard time dealing with the extreme cold, need help with heating, etc., please reach out to them. A little can help a lot.

  341. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Jeffr ha I do have two things t vote with and it is crazy trying to do it as soon as you can but don’t mind at all!
    Fun and would LOVE to see him #1!! Where he belongs!!!

  345. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    GG hello and hope you are recharged and ready to rumble!!

    Russ hi! love chili!! Had meatloaf and it was yummy!! Ready to blow the roof off the Idol Poll!!!

  346. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Angelgal really hope Ray stays with David! He seems to bring out the spunky side to David? Loved the whole tour and can’t wait for more!

  347. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hi Russ- How sweet to remind everyone to keep an eye on neighbors, family and friends who may need a little help dealing with the frigid temperatures.

    Hi Jeff- Hows the wood supply coming along, have you been able to keep up??

  348. Angelgal3 says:

    I hope Ray stays with him too kimk. he does bring out the spnky side of him. That tour was awesome and I’m hoping I can be patient enough to wait for another one! Late summer or early fall seems like an eternity away!

  349. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

    Hey GG! I’m just going by what he said & those were his exact words. Now maybe someone wasnt real clear with him about what the story was, but this guy is usually right on about his info & seems to find out things in advance. That doesnt mean that you’re not right. It would be alot easier to take one show than a talk show. I’m sorry if anyone is his fan, thats great if you are. I just have no respect for him & until he’s changed his behavior, I really dont have any interest in what he does. The only reason I mentioned it is I’m tired of people falling all over themselves over people who I dont think have earned much of anything yet. Sorry, I’m not in the greatest mood today I guess, I’m just so fed up with inconsiderate, conceded people who are so non-chalant about other peoples feelings, their well being & lack of respect for others & themselves. I wont say anymore on any of this, as this is FOD, which means fun, caring, wonderful people talking about a fun, caring, wonderful man. Oh & he can sing a little tooo!

  350. Attitude/Candy says:

    345/Hi AngelGal3- I love Ray, sometimes he gets a bum rap as the resident bad guy. But thats ok, he has a tough job! He really is a sweetheart under the security shield he wears!

  351. lettie2 says:

    Hi everybody!! Man, it is cold here today! -20 below this morning and it only got to 2 above all day and now it is dropping fast again!! I am still voting everytime I get near a computer!! LOL!

    Does anyone know if the Sylvia that was on earlier today is the Sylvia I met in SLC? What a very nice person she is! Would just love the chance to talk with her again!!

  352. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Angelgal not thinking about it…miracles do happen…and just imagine if David was never here?

    Ok I was thinking of this song for David to cover. “When I Need You” by Leo Sayer.
    The words made me think of when he’s touring and out on the road and misses his family.
    He would kill this song.

  356. Angelgal3 says:

    Hi Candy,Ray does have a tough job. I always remember that he’s there looking out for David’s safety first. That’s the most important thing!

  357. Attitude/Candy says:

    Beth- I thinks its ok to bring topics such as Adam here, yes it is a David site but they do have a common factor…American Idol. While I dont see Adam doing a talk show, he sure does like himself so it wouldnt surprise me if he did.

  358. Angelgal3 says:

    kimk, haha,another fun David video! Love ZG!! :) I hope David gets to work with some great songwriters and producers for this next album. He deserves to work with only the best!

  361. GG_doorsfan says:

    350/ no prob beth – i was going off goggle alerts and scans of the major music boards and the info posted… so far, from those sources it’s an appearance centered around him, with sue boyle on the show that day as well… if the one time appearance morphs into a full blown talk show, i would have to scratch my head, hahahah… ;-)

  362. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

    Hey Candy! Yeah, I guess I’m a little grumpy to day. Two days in a row, on my way to work, someone drove right through a red light as I was starting to go through the intersection. Thankgoodness I felt something was off & & slowed down. That really didnt improve my disposition,lol. I’m tired of all the self-absorbed people that we seem all over the place lately. I dont know if you’ve ever watched the show “Frazier”, but Niles(Fraziers brother) who is also a psyciatrist, was talking about an award he was getting for a paper he wrote on a narcicistic(sp) opera singer. He titled it “Mi, Mi, Mi, Mi”,lol. OK, now I’m not feeling so grumpy, that show still cracks me up,ha,ha.

    Angelgal my feeling is? … he gets to work with who can bring out the stellar performances he is capable of doing? …and who he feels comfy with and folks who know how to get that CD to sound hip & amazing! if that is the best out there then so be it but bet it may be a little of quality, moola and substance or who works best with him? Oh I do hope we get clues along the way!!!

There father being the total opposite of them & of course Daphne & Roz, it was(is) a great cast. I’ve seen every episode I dont know how many times & it still cracks me up. You’re right about the “me” syndrome, its running rampant, I’m just tired of getting run over by it,lol.

  378. lettie2 says:

    Kimk, please tell Sylvia “Hi” for me….she was so nice and hope she is doing good!!

    Candy, I think I need at least 3 of those snuggiesm lol…this has just been awful this last month!!

  379. Wasn’t it nice when David tweeted about how much he loves to be with his family? There aren’t very many 19 year olds who enjoy that but with the kind of character he has I’m not surprised. So great how he loves to be with his little sisters. They must just eat it up and feel real special. Love the guy……

    Jeff – Your soup sounds great! I made gumbo tonight since I thought it would be perfect for a snowy day.

    Hi Kathy- earlier-I said that I may have sensed a little snark in Davids comment coming from the haha he added at the end. I was thinking maybe the siblings that he loves so much, for some reason were getting to him. And the haha was his way of venting. Who knows though as it is really hard to tell through a tweet. :)

  396. lettie2 says:

    Hi GG!! voting every chance I get….Hope your doing good!!

  397. JeffR says:

    Russ, it does call for smoked ham, but the store didn’t have it and the lady there told me the smoked pork would work good. It did, although I may have preferred the ham, this was good too.

  401. lettie2 says:

    jeani/ut I have to go back to work too, what is a swap?

  402. GG_doorsfan says:

    39/ i am lettie2 – dinner and a hot soak in the tub works miracles – plus i have a couple episodes on dvr of ”house” i’m catching up on… i love that show… just nuts about the actor who plays him… what a character ;-) i have to dvr most of my fave tv shows now, so it’s fun playing catch up w/them too ;-)

  403. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

    Hollyre, are you sure, because as much as it would disappoint me, I would trade the 30- windchill for you’re 20 above,lol.

  404. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Kathy oh I loved that tweet and nope not many 19 year olds I know!

    Angelgal yes another Crush but one where David is now! A lot more mature… so excited to know what style he wants us to hear….who he is now!

  405. Russ says:

    Jeanie, yes, what is a SWAP?

  406. jeani /UT says:

    Maybe David could finish up his school. I’d help him with homework.

  407. GG_doorsfan says:

    401/ hi hollyre – back to the saltpits for me this week too – ughhhhh… the time off made me a little rusty, but i’m getting back into the groove, heh ;-)

  408. lettie2 says:

    GG, yes House is good!! i have to record My favorite TV shows cause I can’t be here when they are on…but at least I can fast forward though the commercials!! lol!

  409. jeani /UT says:

    Russ We just all bring things we don’t want anymore and can take home things other people have brought. No money involved.

  410. Attitude/Candy says:

    as anxious as I am for the next cd, Im just as anxious for a new video that we can sit and watch again and again and again…David has changed drastically since he did the Crush video.

  411. Hi GG. Candy maybe youre right I guess I put David on a pedistal sometimes because in my eyes the guy can do no wrong. I guess after awhile he may need his space, afterall he’s only human!!! Thanks for pointing that out…

  412. lettie2 says:

    jeani, okay i understand now! That is a very good idea!!

  413. Russ says:

    Jeanie, sounds like fun.

  414. Angelgal3 says:

    kimk,exactly! Another radio hit but a mature sounding one> It’s hard to say which direction he will take with the music but I’m guessing along the lines of like John Mayer maybe? Who really knows though?? David always surprises us! :)

  415. lettie2 says:

    Well see you guys later! Have to go back to work,,,but i will be back to voting when I get back, everyone take care and be safe!!

  416. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

  419. jeani /UT says:

    Well, goodbye . I’ll let you know if I come home with anything good.
    Swap AL for David while I’m gone please.

  420. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

  421. hollyre (David=JOY) says:

  434. hollyre (David=JOY) says:

    ABMS – It is a soup kind of day. I made chicken/sausage/shrimp gumbo and it was delicious. Warmed us right up.

  435. LCT says:

    Have to say Josh Grobin’s NA is not as good as David’s… But that’s what the world wants – just so so….mm

  436. Angelgal3 says:

    Patty, I don’t think Adam’s fans realize how determined David’s fans really are!

  437. Beth(Dang it, in the freezer again, help, help, Oh My Heck!!!) says:

    Hey abms! I’m looking at it as invigorating & refreshing,lol.

  476. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:

    Angel well I don’t think it is a good idea to put David in the food etc categories but is there an
    explanation for the IN YOUR FACE thing? Is he like that crazy chef on TV who kind of makes folks cry?

  477. Patty says:

    I was out doing some votes and have some dinner…. :)
    Hi Joanie!!!!! how was you day?

  478. Russ says:

    Hello! Did everyone leave?

  479. angelbymyside says:

    Kimk: Tyler Florence is a nice guy. Nice personality. He won’t make you cry unless you’re chopping onions! haha. He is definitely NOT like that guy on Hell’s Kitchen.

  480. LCT says:

    I’m here voting on several sites and watching football. I now have David showing 27% ?

  481. Russ….oh yes….just had a busy busy day and I am very tired tonight. And I’ve just been thinking a little bit about how some peope have become confused about what it means to be “like” David. Maybe thinking a LOT about it. *sigh*
    Did you make your chili from scratch?? I actually went out for dinner tonight…which was a real treat. No food prep, no dishes to do! :grin:

    Hey, hi RJ!

    Hi Patty! Oh so busy!! I understand you don’t feel very well. Dang it! I hope you feel better soon!! It was so beautiful here today though, wasn’t it? So sunny!!

    Hi abms!! I love to watch Tyler Florence too!!

    ABMS-I just finished looking at your Stroudsburg pictures at the top of the page for the millionth time. The view from our box seats made for some beautiful and unique pictures! I love that camera and obviously it loves David!

  483. kristian (twitter.com/SuperBuknoy) says:

  485. kimk Happy New Year! 2010 Better then all the rest! says:
