That was a huge opening post.......

Yeah ... I didn't realize how big it was until I clicked post. Sorry if it caused problems for anybody.

And thanks for what you said about the tribute.

[silent_jonny]

I may have overdone it :)

Thanks, Buddy. Only 24 hours and 45 minutes to go!

Hi, Wolfstar :) And thank you (I meant that).

[silent_jonny]

May I ask when and how Texas flower passed?

This will explain it better than I can.

Thanks! and Thanks for the inclusion! looking forward to another exciting AI season!

[silent_jonny]

Good to see ya! Looking forward to your critiques. They were always a highlight on the last thread.

[silent_jonny]

Thank you, jonny!

No, thank you! :)

I'd no idea that Bo was so ill

Yeah, most of his luck has been bad recently. It would be a shame if his career stalled before it really started. But his health is more important.

[silent_jonny]

Thank you, Starwise :)

Doing pretty good. Bean, the real dog, died in June. If you remember he was very sick during last seasons AI. I'm still very sad about it but my husband insisted we get another puppy. In September, Sprout came to live with us. At the beginning of December we added 6 month old Plumpy to the mix. He belonged to the neighbors a couple of doors up and they no longer wanted him and were letting him run the neighborhood. He's a pomapoo and only weighs about 10 pounds. I was bringing him into my house everyday anyway so I decided he might as well live here. I hate people who get dogs and don't take care of them.

Anyway, I've been very busy keeping them out of trouble so I haven't been posting as much on FR but I'm going to be sure to set aside the time to watch AI.

Hope things have been well with you.

[silent_jonny]

I was waiting for your response :) Thank you very much, DL.

Can you think of a better example for them than Carrie?

Other than Kelly Clarkson, no. There aren't that many good role models for girls these days (or boys, either).

I hope the next crop of potential Idols follows their lead.

Gorgeous thread

Thank you, Veto :)

Don't worry about the AI list. I just pinged everyone from the TAR thread to post #3, inviting them to join us if they wanted to.

[silent_jonny]

Apples!

Darlin' you did a great job! And you know which part I liked best.

(grin)

Thank you for all you did--and still do.

And I'm fine :) I'm more relieved than anything else, now that the thread's finally up :o

[silent_jonny]

What a great job you did on this thread!

Thank you very much :)

And how sweet to dedicate it to Texas Flower, that was lovely.

:) It seemed like the right place to do it. She made so many friends here.

[silent_jonny]

Hi, Ruthy! :)

Thank you.

[silent_jonny]

I'm on my way--3 minutes!

[no more apples]

Smooth sailing from here! Like I said, I'll meet you at the party afterwards...
