UN International Day of the Girl Child
United Nations Declares October 11 “International Day Of The Girl Child,” Recognizes the Challenges and Power of Girls
On December 19, 2011, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution to declare October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child, establishing a day to recognize girls’ rights and the unique challenges girls face around the world. The action follows a multi-year campaign by activists in Canada and the United States. In reserving a day for advocacy and action by and for girls, the UN has signaled its commitment to end gender stereotypes, discrimination, violence, and economic disparities that disproportionately affect girls.

It’s always a beautiful thing to visit RSO and see David “gracing” their banner!

Billboard News!!

American Idols All Time Top 24
When a singer wins “American Idol,” it’s undoubtedly his or her biggest music moment to-date. But as we’ve seen time and time again, winning “Idol” does not necessarily mean that one’s career will follow the trajectories of Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood. As “American Idol” season 11 moves forward with its Top 24 (well, technically 25) contestants this week, we examine which contestants have had the greatest post-”Idol” success out in the wider waters of the music industry.
This “Idol” Top 24 list is based on chart performance on the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 charts (through the Jan 21 issue date), using a weighted formula equally blending album sales (according to Nielsen SoundScan) with points generated by the radio airplay, track download sales and streaming plays that make up the Hot 100.
#11 here and forever #1 in our hearts! Thx @Aisimchan for sharing this news!
CLICK ABOVE to head over. David actually is at #6 for You Tube views, and is in a cluster of very closely ranked idols in the top 10 for album and track sales!!

Canton, OH 10-11-10 Memories!!
OOOOOHHHHHHHIIIIOOOO!!! What a great day this was!!! I completely lived it through the photos, videos, and stories of the awesome fans who captured David on a fantastic day!! His stripped down meet and greet concert at Pete’s was full of crazy good vocals and some divine rambling and randomness!!!
Pastel along with others recorded vids of David’s EPIC vocals and banter that day and I actually made a cd which sits in the slot before TOSOD in my car cd player. From school absence talk, and age investigation, to “What are you eating..you’re making me hungry?!” David’s banter had it all that day. Talented, sweet and endearing, David put on a GREAT show for the crowd at Pete’s! Below on this memory lane stroll, there’s a slideshow from @RobertaFOD, more photos from PA Buckie and Kristin P., and a slew of vids to make your day!

Skate For The Heart 2010 Highlight Vid
Shame on me for neglecting to post this awesome memory yesterday!!! On October 10, 2010, David sang for Joannie Rochette at the Skate For The Heart event at the Covelli center in Youngstown, OH! Pastel, Roberta, Sammie, Nancy, and many other fans were in attendance of the show taping which aired later on January 16th, 2011.
David sang MKOP as Joannie skted..it was magical!!

Martha–love that gorgeous dual pic….some Archies sure get creative when bored!
Sarah – someday I want to do some of this creative stuff! Don’t know how I’ll do though.
Martha–me too….not good on the creativity department!
Good Morning everyone. Have to go to work, but i try and read comments for the day before i leave. Don’t have time to see all tumblers Sarahhazel, but you can bet i will when i get home.
Great post this morning joanie, i love seeing David on those skating shows, am going to miss him.
Ray, you are so right. With the music business the way it is, you don’t know what its going to be like when David gets back. Or who will be on top by then.
I will try to lurk from work unless i get busy. Have a nice days my Archie friends.
Good Morning everyone!!
OK…sarahhazel…come here everyday just to see your pics! Awesome and fun! THX!
Linda–see ya later!
Good morning, oinkiers!
bridget–You’re welcome!…I’m thankful we have super-talented Archies out there who share their stuff and & I hope they’ll keep making those goodies till the BOSS MAN comes back!
I know this is random but my 2 year old baby just told me I am the best mommy because I made her mac and cheese for lunch!! LOL!! How can we not LOVE our kids!!
!!
Took a while but I’m so happy for the Thai fans for finally having BEGIN. available to them!….I hope David stops there in his next Asian tour.
I think his music should be sold all over the world……. maybe this world would be a better place if it did!!
!!
oinkiers–Aw, that is so saweeeeeet of your baby to say that!….Must be a really good mac n cheese….haha!….but yes, they’re just so precious!
oinkiers–hopefully someday…..hey, I believe he can make it happen if he wants to!
Sarah- me too!! Remeber those postive vibes….;)!!
*remember
OMJ…the Chile (mini) concert is 2 days from now….PLEASE LET THERE BE PICS/VIDS/RECAPS….either of those are fine….or better yet, ALL!!!
Yeah, oinkiers…..sending
****positive vibes****
to David and the whole Archufandom….
Sarah- Yep I will be to first to agree with you! I know I should stay away from them but I am very curious by nature soooo bring them on!!
!!
You know those arrows remind me “one step in front of another!!”
oinkiers–LOL…wish I could find a “smiley footprint”!
That would be awesome!

Martha–Thanks for that….really touching and very sad….
…..reminded me of that very young fan who suddenly passed away a year or so ago…..& makes me feel guilty & more thankful at the same time that I’ve been given more than one chance to meet David…..thinking there are many out there in less fortunate situations who are still waiting for theirs. What a brave girl….I really hope and pray that she gets her wish.

David Archuleta, Imagine, Cuyahoga Falls, OH 10-11-10.wmv: http://youtu.be/ta1Mhtb7V6s via @youtube I hear myself gasp when I realize it’s IMAGINE
ray – So true. It was so sad to see JB and NJ as mentors on X Factor. Really?! Certainly music isn’t what it used to be. That’s for sure. The great news is that for every JB and NJ there are artists like David, Adele, Carrie, Jordin, JM, Mumford & Sons, etc… and hopefully by the time David returns the musical landscape will have changed. Don’t get me wrong…I love great dance music but I definitely miss the time when artists could actually sing, no matter what type of song they performed.
Hey guys, I was just thinking how cool it is that it feels like business as usual on FOD, the way you guys find cool things to post everyday! It certainly is making this time a lot less empty, thank you so much! Also just wondering why DavidArchie tweets aren’t showing up on the home page lately? Have a good day everyone!
ksf–”I definitely miss the time when artists could actually sing, no matter what type of song they performed.”—->exactly my kind of artists!
Hi, Lucy!…glad FOD makes you feel less Archuempty….haha…..Hmmm, not sure about the tweets….maybe we should ask the mods!
5.7 earthquake near santiago!
distance between santiago and rancangua is 53 miles
Dang, another earthquake
I wonder if he felt that one this time?
tami lyn – our earthquake informat
tami lyn–that’s kinda near.
http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/10/11/earthquake-shakes-chilean-capital-no-initial-reports-damage-or-injury/
From what my husband has told me (him being in many earthquakes) He says you can just feel it when it is at a 5 so according to him he probably didn’t feel any thing!
Hope the intensity doesn’t get worse than that…..6.0 and up would make me nervous.
50 miles from Sanitago – pretty close
I hope it does not get to be more than a 6 either!!
oinkiers–That’s about right…..Having lived in CA for 26 years, I think the worse I’ve experienced was the Northridge one in 1994 at 6.7 with many strong aftershocks throughout the day.
That Three Brothers video I watched had the LDS missionaries experience that big Chile earthquake (7+ I think on the Richter scale)….no electricity, water, phones, scarce supply of food for about 3 days….The family back here in the US thought the worse had happened. Fortunately, they were safe.
Ooops….sorry if I scared anyone from telling that story.
MOVING ON…….to more positive stuff…..
******POSTIVE VIBES****** I have been in a 6.0 and it really wasn’t as bad as you would think!!
was in a 5.4 and was ok. bet all is ok.
)))))
hi everyone!!! just a quick pop by!!

Checking in before work….see ANOTHER earthquake in Chile! They sure have their share!
I too will LOVE anything shared about the concert on Saturday! Wonder what pop songs David will sing? Guess time will tell! Hope somebody will too!

DANGER WILL ROBINSON!! M I S S I O N A R Y B L O G !
Blog mentions David and his concert October 13, 2012
DANGER! DANGER! DANGER!
http://www.missionsite.net/eldersamwilliams/viewletter/172343
McKenzie–ROFL…your DANGER signs almost popped out of my computer screen!
Hello everyone. Joanie loved your post. Juan’s artwork is stunning. sarahhazel your links are magnificent!
Martha thanks for all the DANGER. Palmtreephan, nice to see you. Come more often. Oinikers, babies are so dear. My first baby was 2 yrs. old 48 yrs. ago. David loves all kids. He’s adorable.
Ok, this week needs to end soon! Ive had computer woes since Monday, so this morning had just started to install MS Office 2010 on the new computer and the electric went off! Call elec co, seems some dim-witted squirrel got himself fried on the transformer outside my home! Well, the interruption corrupted the whole install, had to spend an hour on the phone with MS to get it straightened out. What a week! I dont smoke or drink but another week like this one and I may just become a chain smoking alcoholic!!
Thank you Joanie for the great post! Its so nice to come here and escape to my favorite place on earth…Davidland!
McKenzie lol Danger Will Robinson!!!
No problem SGJ. In the dangerous world that we live in today, I don’t think you can ever be too careful. I mean, imagine what would happen if some poor soul accidentally read a missionary blog that mentioned David
sarahhazel think Katy Perry is a missionaries daughter.
LOL at the Danger Will Robinson! I hope we get something from the concert, fans are starving, well some of us are anyway. Feed us oh mission Gods!
It was so much fun for me to revisit the post on the Canton Ohio concert. I was pretty new to FOD last year when I first saw it and it was once of the first times I had seen David’s personality PLUS! I already loved his music and voice, but that personality pulled me right in. I knew I had to know about David the person. So thank you, one and all who have video-ed, saved and have the computer savvy to pull it all together for our daily pleasure.
And Martha thanks for posting about the young girl in the Phillipines. I am very happy to include her in my prayers .
ha think there is a joke in there somewhere..
McKenzie
Candy, I’m laughing because of what you said not because of what happened. Some days I feel the same. Ants eat our FIOS cables randomly. Then we have no interent or phone. We need an ant guard. Crazy but true!!
Going to go get dinner, maybe some food will do the same as calgon!
Food always makes every thing better I am eating a snickerdoodle I feel better already LOL!! And what makes better your best friend makes and drops them off just because…….
!!
oinikers- How nice.
Dinner time BBL
McKenzie – thanks for the missionary blog. Would love to hear the soundcheck.
Hey guys and gals!
Pastel thanks for the great new.post. Always choca block. Loved your little joke at the very end there too. lol
I guess since david is living in an earthquake zone, there will be frequent shakes. Hundreds of earthquakes happen each year but the vast majority are not felt by people and do no damage. Frequent small quakes are usually good because they relieve pressure and help reduce the likelihood of a ‘big one’. I grew up in earthquake zone in New Zealand. Think the biggest one, I experienced was 8 point something. It gave a big hard shake but the worst damage it caused was a.few.things.fell off shelves in some homes. I have also been in many 5 and 6 and 7 pointers. People get concerned about the number on the richter scale but that is not really the whole story – what is just as important is how deep or shallow the earthquake is – the more shallower the worse the damage.above ground. Also how close to land it is – again the closer the worse the damage. So basically…i wouldn’t get concerned about them happening, I would be keeping an ear out for how much damage they are.causing if any and realise it is ‘normal’ and to be expected for that part, of the world.
AHHH!!!!!!!!
Jay Oliver Durias @jaydurias
Thanks for all your love for rainbow and for @davidarchie. Party soon!:-)
Candy, i’m sorry about your puter troubles. I know they can get very frustrating and annoying. Especially when so much is done online these days.
That story about the sick Filipino fan was sad. I too hope she has miracles occur and lives a long, joyous life somehow. Its wonderful that just by meeting someone, david can bring happiness to someones life. I hope she gets her chance come 2014.
So what are the deets of this concert this weekend? Is it a pop concert and is there a fan going?
Haha! Love those words – ‘Party soon’ LOL
Shanny anything close to 7 is something to be concerned about but an 8?? that is huge! glad you were ok.
my pops lived in CA during the Northridge earthquake and I think it was about an 6.8 and that was bad. highways collapsed, buildings.. folks did die.
depends on many things as to what damage etc there is.
Shanny party soon.. NOW I LIKE THAT.. A LOT!!!
Thats right Kim. Thats what I mean about the number doesn’t tell the whole story. Other factors involved make the difference. Depth and epicentre location. Look at Haiti – wasn’t that one just in the 5 range? But the damage was huge, partly due to building standards being inadequate. Which is yet another factor.
I’m glad your dad lived to tell the tale. Scary stuff. The problem with earthquakes is you never know how big its gonna be, so it makes you scared and paranoid when you could’ve been having fun riding the wave for a few seconds. lol
Haha, bring on dancing david! This is gonna be fuuun!
Remember when David did the basketball and we were all excitedly anticipating the game. It was so fun to have his back even though it wasn’t really his strongest talent. I loved him for just putting himself out there and giving it a go. And it was fun to see him running around on court in his baggy basketball shorts. lol.
I’m back!….love the efforts to be positive here despite thoughts of David songs we may never hear, news of earthquakes, possible Chile concert fan recording blackout, computer woes, a fried squirrel (poor thing) and Fios-eating ants! LOL
Party soon for the RMV? Woohoo!!!
Shanny–and his very rarely-exposed legs….haha!
collegemom @collegemom12
@kariontour @davidarchie – Any chance that the really beautirul Christmas from the Heart cd will get some promo in time for Christmas?
Random song thought: “Don’t Run Away” sounds a little like “Save the Day” <–love this song too….

Shanny lol the thought of dubstep and David well it does not compute and why I like it!!

sarahhazel Drop Dead Gorgeous pics. Thunk!!!!
sarahhazel 6:43- he is cute but I really think he is saying “Should I stare?” instead of “chest out”…
Candy~ Sorry about all your computer troubles. I’ve been there. Maybe it’s time for a bubblebath? lolol.
Tami lyn~ Answering your question from last night, yes, I’m familiar with BSMS. It’s definitely a pretty song, but we haven’t sung it in my church in ages. We usually have one hymn, & 3-4 choruses.
Tracy–I know…but I don’t care cuz that’s not what I’m looking at…..haha!
Hi everyone
CrAzY day at work today. Just finished going through the post and comments.
McKenzie ~ Loved you DANGER WILL ROBINSON warning. Got a chuckle out of that!
An earthquake in Santiago today?? That’s pretty close to David. Wonder if he felt this one?
Will be praying for the fan who is sick and so wanted to meet David when he was in the Philippines.
Can’t wait for the Rainbow party
Candy ~ I had the same thing happen to me with a squirrel, except he chewed through our telephone lines and we had to have new lines installed. Those pesky squirrels can cause lots of damage….well except our friend Almond
Haha
OMGOSH…..that “chest out” gif.
This very nice one needs an audio….

Sarahhazel – I instantly thought of Save The Day when I first heard the new song to!
abms–it’s called “should I stare?” gif now….hehe….(per Tracy)
Shanny- I asked David if he was going to play basketball. He said he didn’t know. Then I showed him my small poster I made. One side read “Rah, Rah, Rah Archuleta”. I told him to give it the old college try. Then I turned to the other side that read”You’re My Kind Of Perfect, David”. He said he’d try. Later I added an “S” to Archuleta because Lupe played too. Three and a half hours of sitting and watching David. Heaven. David’s team won 79 to 78. It was so much fun.
Shanny–**high five**!!!
“should I stare”?….is that a rhetorical question? hahahaha
Hi! everyone. Just got home from work. I can see i missed a lot of excitement. Haven’t read all the comments yet, but i read on tweeter that its going to be party time soon. I’m always ready for a party.
supergrand–OMJ…awesome story and so sweet!….(but I’m actually jealous)
supergrandjudie ~ the day we spent at Duffy’s Hope charity basketball game was the best! Had so much fun hanging with the fans in the bleachers watching David play bball
Linda from Cali ~ We are due for a party!
justin is helping LA with the over 25s! really???
sgj~ Awwwww….that is the coolest story. So glad you had a chance to talk with him; love your poster.
tami lyn~ I know!!! I was just gonna say that. I just can’t….
Good evening just back from a hay ride, painting pumkins and faces, eating food, corn maze and a whole lot of chasing kids!!
!!
PARTY!!!! WHo doesn’t like a party!!
angelbymyside- Yes, the fans from FOD that showed up really made David feel good. Considering that the event was announced in a short time. Many great days with David but I agree it was one of the best. Meeting Lupe and telling her personally,”Thank you for sharing David with us ” was just a bonus.
abms @7:05–
glitter*girl/tami lyn- thats because the younger ones wouldnt want to be mentored by him. Well im sure the older ones dont want him either, I don’t get any of it…Its all L.A’s doing to get a little more ching ching I think. I really don’ think any of them really want to be mentored by JB. Dont mind my rambling, I just dont get it.
tami lyn–what??? 25s???…I’m confused….
hi josie~ yeah i don’t think he is qualified to do that.
Linda–Let’s get ready for the RMV Partayyyy!!!
oinkiers–sounds like a fun night for ya!
Never mind, I know the JB thing…..and I don’t get it either. LOL
A wish we knew what day we need to be on FOD for the RMV party!! Not that I am not on here every day!! LOL!!
sarahhazel- ;;LOL;
Josie- Thanks that was a special time for me. I had been recuperating from from CC surgery. I also told him how glad I was that he waited to come to the east coast so I was well enough to come and see him again. That’s when he stood up and gave me a two armed hug. I probably told this story before but it flabbergasted me. I cried I know that.
sgj~ Awwwwww.
:)
when they say “package” i’m assuming they mean someone really good looking right?(like david). i haven’t seen any major cuties on x-factor yet.
supergrand–Awww, you’re making me cry now….he is the sweetest thing ever!
Didnt that Scooter guy have something to do with David somehow??
SGJ, your so lucky to have had that close contact with David. You deserved it.
As far as JB, i don’t want to seem mean, but i don’t think he caulifies as a mentor either.
I will have my party dress ready for the big party. I have been waiting a long time for this. Yahoo!!!
tracy~ hi
no. he just acknowledged that david helped justin cuz when people were searching for david on YT they also found justin and YT is how justin was discovered by scooter.
Linda–party dress!….so are we going casual, semi-casual, semi-formal or formal?….what about the food?….we have to have food….Thai?
tami lyn-
me neither. No one comes close to Mr. DJA!!
tami lyn @7:24—and you never will….hehe…..
Ok I think I know why they had JB with the older people because that kid that just sang can sing blow JB out of the park…..hehe Sorry I will stop. That was not nice.
Tami lyn- ok thanks, thought I heard tht name before.
Sarah- LOL!! I will bring chips and I say jeans and tee- shirts!!
!! I am just that kind of girl!! LOL!! I keep the formal stuff to the piggies!!
Tracy- it might not be nice but it is true!!
tracy~ yeah we never really hear about any other singer’s manager but for some reason scooter is almost as famous as justin!
oinkiers–Cool! cuz I am a tee & jeans kind of gal too! ***high five*** to you!
Sarahhazel, Well how about a come as you are party. We definitely have to have thai food, especially Pad thai. mangos & halo, halo. Did i spell it right?
I think it’s funny that Simon got stuck with the groups. He is sooo not gonna win this time.
Sarah- **** HIGH FIVE****!!
OMG- that is why, these younger kids are fantastic.
Linda–yup, you spelled it right!….also, funeral potatoes, salsa for oinkiers’ chips, baleadas…..what else?……now I’m getting hungry again…..
Linda- Are we going to Party??? tami lyn is all set. She has her DWTS outfit and shoes. I like a lot of bling bling. Sarahhazel, I think casual bling would be comfortable attire. I can’t wear those frankenstein high heels though. Yes, David has and is the sweetest heart in this world.
hi sgj! yes lol, i am ready
oh we need pop, cookies, brownies, and most of all CANDY!!! Not that I am addicted to candy or any thing!!!………..(puts self in time out for lying!)
i surround myself with candy at all times!!!
Sgj, I think i will put bling blings on my jammies, Oh! i need my noise makers and then, LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!!
I’m getting hungry again. This is a Rainbow party, right?
RIGHT!! Which means we need skittles!!! Taste the RAINBOW!!
Where is this party going to be. Here?? Seems logical.
kimk- What do you think?
oinkers~ yes! perfect LOL
oinikers- HaHaHaHa
Oinkier and jelly beans my favorite.
one more x-factor comment~ as for me, to spend money on CDs, concerts, etc i have to fall in love with the voice AND the person. i did not see anyone on x-factor tonite that made me feel much of anything but they are all very talented no doubt.
JELLY BEANS I only eat them at Easter because i will make my self sick eating them they are my fav. toO!!!
We can have the party here. We can use our smiley faces as our party favors.
Sweets are nice but I always like a fruit salad with yogurt dip.
OOOOH! That sounds good Sgj. How about pot luck. everybody eats what they want. LoL!
my favorites are chocolate and frosting(the kind in the plastic container w/the sprinkles on top)lol. i take a blueberry poptart, put a thick layer of frosting on the unfrosted side, put in freezer for awhile then eat it very slowly with my morning coffee. sugar ecstasy
tami lyn- I agree on X Factor . I wouldn’t run to the music store either.
oinikers- I eat jelly beans and never know when to stop. Love them. Jelly beans make my belly ache.
Chocolate! No ones mentioned chocolate! I aint comin if there aint gonna be no chocolate.
Supergrandjudie – thanks for sharing your memories. Such a feel good story that makes me feel happy for you, david and me!
I was just listening to the mp3 from when david did his first MKOC Little Drummer Boy. All the screams and ‘Go David’. Such awesome memories. That is an epic moment that will always be remembered in the Archuleta history files.
Linda- Yeah, that is a good idea. Have to keep the fare light because we will be dancing.
Invite Lupe in to give us some bachata lessons maybe?
shanny~ so true! david archuleta is Christmas
can’t even imagine going thru a holiday season now without david’s christmas CD. makes me wonder what i listened to before!
Hello
my Archies friend <3
I mean Archie friends !!! blame it on cafeine !!
Reading a few comments above mine, I gain a few pound already
Shanny- Thanks
That’s the thing about David’s concerts. We always have an enjoyable time. The whole family is in sync hearing beautiful music and seeing a teriffic role model who shows he cares for all of us. When you hear David sing live at a concert you can not believe your ears. His voice is so heavenly and pure and on the mark— makes you feel like you are in another world. No worries, everybody’s happy!!
Hi pocoelsy, Shanny, Oh yes we should invite Lupe to give us Bachata lessons. I know a little bit because iv’e danced salsa all my life but more when i was younger.
I will come with pig slippers on and all!!
pocoelsy- HaHaHa fattening you said it!!
Pocoelsy get ready to party and bring your favorite food.
pocoelsy~ LOL !
oinkers~ LOL!
Actually, i’ll bring australian chocolate for everyone and pavlova (like a large meringue with a soft marshmallowy kind of inside, topped with cream and fruit) and vegemite. Anyone ever tasted vegemite?
And it would be wonderful if someone could bring pumpkin pie and pecan pie because I would really love to taste those traditional American favourites.
Hi ya Pocoelsy, are you coming to the party? lol
Tami lyn – haha, so true – david is christmas now!
Pocoelsy-LOL!!
Woot! Chocolates for me….but gotta be M&M’s cuz they have Rainbow colors in them!
Jelly beans are great and I’m in with the bachata lessons. Looks like we’re all set!
pocoelsy will bring the main course–scrumptious Thai food!!!
tami lyn–true, David sings Christmas songs the best!
Ha, you guys are a hoot! Sounds like this party is going to be rockin’
Unfortunately, my kids are sitting in the car waiting for me. You guys keep planning, let me know the time, date and what I should bring and i’ll be there with bells on my bachata dancing shoes. lol
Ciao friends!
Linda- You’ll teach us how to salsa.
Bye Shanny!
Oh you all just make me smile
so glad I’m invited, definitely come and bring load of Pad Thai, sticky rice with mango as desert ..how do they sound?, as for dancing is a no no for me unless you all want me to turn the party into a stand up comedy show by pocoelsy
Oh…rainbow coloured m&m’s and rainbow coloured jelly beans. Duh! Just clicked. lol
Oh, someone mentioned Skittles….approved!!!
Ciao, Shanny!
LOL!!

Jay Oliver Durias @jaydurias
I really dn’t have exact date of MV release bt 4 sure it’s already waiting line. I’m jst as eager as u guys.
To all fans of davidarchie!
hmm.. what does that mean?
it is ready to go?
Jay Oliver Durias @jaydurias
Definition of “soon”: Before a REASONABLE or the DESIRED length of time has elapsed. QUICKLY or WITHOUT MUCH DELAY.
“@Attwittsend:
LOL!!
By chance, guacamole sounds good to me. David would love that, and since he won’t be here to enjoy it we will do it for him.
Kimk, i like the last definition, WITH MUCH DELAY>
“WITHOUT MUCH DELAY’
Linda me too.. going to guess he wants it out there but the powers that be are doing their stuff.
betcha this month!
Linda…..think I better go get on the treadmill…….pre-party calorie burning….so I can thoroughly enjoy every little morsel! ………….and SOON! Woohoo!
Got here late, but as always, I enjoyed the great post and the conversations. Goodnight!
Kimk, I think it will be this month too, or Jay, wouldn’t have brought it up. Kinda like preparing us for it. He knows how bad we want to it.
Well goodnight everyone. Sweet dreams . Tomorrow is another day.
Hello FOD!

Joanie, what a fabulous post and that RSO pic sure melts my heart…..gosh just look at David’s face, he’s tooooo precious for words!
Woah new Rainbow MV’s coming soon? YIPPEEEEE!!!
And oh yeah, SF Giants made it to the NLCS hehehe!
Sydnie, YEAH for new Rainboe MV.
YEAH for SF Giants!!!!
Hi cq! Are you from the Bay Area too? It’ll be chaos with all the fans scrambling to get playoff tickets!
I’m really behind on FOD posts being mia the past couple weeks, so many comments lately haha will take forever to catch up! Us archies are a chatty bunch even with no real David news lol!
Happy birthday to Jazzy, I’m already behind post, busy and toxic at work.
Pocoelsy- I’m glad that BEGIN. has finally available in Thailand.
Can’t wait for Rainbow MV
A lot of foods were mentioned here, made me craving for yummy foods lol
Since leak songs can’t be release as album and can’t be dowload legally due to legality of contract with Jive then leak all songs that are in the vault, so all fans can hear it. But really, I’m thankful for the person who leak the song.

” <Lol good find
Sydnie, sorry I didn’t answer your question earlier, turns in after I commented. Anyway the answer to your question is yes I am from the bay area. Yeah, those tickets are not going to be easy to get. Wishing the SF Giants lot of luck.
VABeach true that.. miss his voice period!!!!
Well, Sunday is day 200, would be a good day to celebrate by giving us the Rainbow MV, don’t you think?
On day 100 I said to list 100 things we love about David. I did this and a few others did it too on other sites.
Why don’t we here at FOD list 200 of our favorite David performances of individual songs and the location, not entire concerts (not necessary to have been there). If we list about 5 each that would require only 40 people. More if you can’t think of 10. Try not to duplicate. I’ll post this on my FB groups too.
If Rainbow is released people could have a Rainbow party and celebrate day 200 of David’s service.
My 5 favorite performances of David’s:
1. Be Still My Soul at BYU Idaho
2. When You Say You Love Me SLC Idol tour.
3. Oh Holy Night in SLC, MKOC tour after his announcement
4. Angels A Cappella in Henderson, NV at Deseret Book
5. I’m Trying to Be Like Jesus, MVP in Beaver Creek, CO
Party??? I’m inviting myself (LOL) and I’m bringing some fried chicken, collard greens, corn bread, AND sweet potato pie!! It ain’t a party without soul food!
Good morning, folks!!! Love the RMV party planning going on!
ksf–of course, you’re invited…..so bring in the soul food, girl!….yum! yum! yum!
ksf you had me at fried chicken and cornbread, but lost me at collard greens and sweet potato pie. LOL
Funny how all tastes are different. I love to bake and make non-baked yummies so I would provide the desserts. Hershey kiss cookies and chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, pumpkin cake roll, strawberries and cool whip cake, no-bake cookies, microwave fudge, cherry cheesecake.

This is random but I saw that there were some comments about X Factor yesterday. Does anyone remember this performance from 14-year old Drew from last year? Amazing and one of the best renditions of Billie Jean ever. MJ would have been proud.
