Good Morning Everyone,

together.  I just stay packed because we move so fast now.

I am off for a couple of appointments, so everyone have
a good morning.

Sasha:  Enjoy your week off!!  Are you taking Clay
anywhere special??

[fhmmany2]

Good Morning!  We have moved again - I'll try to go back and read the last 9 pages from the old thread - it seems like a lot goes on at the end of every thread.

I see that Lorraine has 2 birthday threads! I only posted in one - I hope she reads both!

Just wanted to say have the best Monday possible - see all of you later.

[Claymaniac2000]

I had so much trouble with my computer this weekend that I didn't even try to post. I talked to John Saturday night and he said he should have me another one this week but like I said before I will believe it when I see him drive up out front. I know he will bring me another one it is just------------ when.
Jerry , I hope you find a car today. Good luck on finding what you want.
I missed a lot of pages over the weekend so I am going to try to catch up a little bit.
Everybody have a wonderful ClayDay.

[fhmmany2]

I'm caught up on everything that happened after I left last night and this morning...

Messa - if I had not read back pages, I would have missed your post about the KC meeting. I know they are really great, and I consider myself an absentee member! I'm looking forward to meeting Karen, who bought my extra Atlanta ticket. Another Claymaniac, who I've never met or talked to until yesterday, sent me a p.m. and said she has extra Atlanta tickets - her table is very near ours. I'm going to email Elaine to see if any other KC members are looking for tickets.

Woody - thank you for this new Session - you work very hard for us.

Prissy - I know how much work you have done for everyone during thie last year - enjoy your time off, now.

Kimmy - I missed the picture of you in your dress at the wedding, and don't know where to find it

Clandy - hope your air conditioner problem was only caused by the filter.

AC - Good Luck car shopping - take your time and get the right one.

Liz - Back To Work I love the Florida Pin. The Louisiana Clay Fans are developing our own pin, too, but I don't know if it will be available for public sale, or if only members will be able to buy it. (There is no back view, though).

Jayne, Angela, Evelyn, and Carla - do you all get up that early every morning?

Hello to Happy,  Sasah,  Janet, dudley, Pepe, Cindy,  Liz (Cindy and Liz - I see you lurking), and anybody else here - time for me to get to work.

Happy Birthday dear Lorraine
I hope you didn't fall down your drain
I know you didn't use Liquid Plumber
Instead you chose to go and slumber

and as might happen, you did dream
and while in dreamland found help it seems
Along came Clay with tools in hand
But under pipes he did not land

We won't say where he was found that day
We won't even think about "come what may"
But if it was your birthday dream
I'll add to it this wondrous scene

Clay took you in his big strong arms
and looked at you with all his charms
He kissed your lips he wiped your tears
He made you young at heart and years

He craddled you to sleep that night
and sang you songs and held you tight
He told you how he loved you too
But he must go he has work to do

and then you woke up from your sleep
you knew you had a secret to keep
The secret , but...this dream seemed real
HEY.. the drain is fixed, so WHAT"S THE DEAL?

--------------------------------
Happy birthday Lorraine, may all your dreams come true
Love,
Susan

Remember the fun we had with the Plumber last year?
I am sending you birthday wishes from Julie as well...as she was also a part of the naughtiness with the plumber and Cindy's reckle to name a few.

I hope you have a day that's as special as you are.

Happy Birthday my friend

Good morning OCD land!  Thanks all for the wishful thinking for my A/C.  Unfortunately, it had frozen up again this morning so it wasn't the filter.  The guy will be coming out tonight to get it fixed.

RaineyAiken!  Hope you have a wonderful day today.  Too bad you have to work on blue Monday but only 18 days til our boyfriend appears!!    I'll post in your birthday thread later!

HELLO EVERYONE,
I SNUCK ON AT WORK & FOUND A PM FROM SHANNON.  SHE ASKED ME TO POST THIS HERE ON THE OCD,

Hi everyone. We had to leave town so we stayed in Dothan Alabama. They charged us a arm and leg in a hotel room then we had to switch hotels. Hotels raised their prices because no one had a choice but to pay or wait in the car. I also had all 5 dogs with me and I pulled a Clay and snuck them in anyway and it said in big letter no pets. I have not contacted work yet. more later gota go for now.
Shannon

HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING WELL--I HAVE TO RUN MY BOSS KEEPS WALKING BY--CATCH YOU ALL TONIGHT.

   TO ALL   ,
ANGELA

Clay Aiken - The Jukebox Summer Tour 2005
Monday July 11, 10:00 am ET
Highlights Songs From All Five Decades of the Rock Era
RCA Artist Will Also Preview Songs From His Next Album on 25-City Tour That Begins July 28, 2005 in Tom's River, NJ
Fans Can Send Text Messages to Clay Backstage Before Each Show.

LOS ANGELES, July 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Clay Aiken will rock the jukebox this summer as he sets out on a unique tour celebrating all five decades of the rock era, with songs your mother should know -- and your grandmother and kids, too.
The multi-platinum RCA Records recording artist will embark on the fifth tour of his career with something new. Not tied to a specific album, Aiken's latest live show will reach back to the '50s and '60s for the earliest hits of rock and roll, move into the '70s and '80s for songs from Aiken's childhood, and come all the way into the '90s and '00s for hits from modern times.

"I thought it would be cool to sing a bunch of covers, and relate to everybody," says Aiken. "There will be songs my mom likes and my grandparents like, and there are a lot of people who love the music of the '70s. I like the '80s, and we're going to have a lot of fun with songs from the '90s."

The tour will include many songs that Aiken is already associated with, including Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Neil Sedaka's "Solitaire." Aiken's versions of both songs charted in Billboard. There will also be a medley of Elvis Presley songs that spans the decades. Aiken will also sing the hits of everyone from Sam Cooke to Goo Goo Dolls.

This summer tour will have a unique feature, as those attending Clay's concerts will be encouraged to bring their cell phones and text messaging devices to participate in extracurricular show activities, through a program organized by Boomerang Mobile Media. Those attending will be able to send text messages to Clay backstage before each show and register to receive a post- show message from him. At many venues, attendees will be able to post their own text messages live, on screens in the venue. They will also have access to exclusive merchandise.

"This started out as a show just to have some fun with, and as I got more excited about singing these songs, it became a bigger show," explains Aiken. "It's a summer tour and the production will be simple because the real story is the music. It's a chance for people to remember where they were when they heard certain songs. I was born in 1978, but I love the music of the '50s and '60s and I know a lot of people do. We're going to have a lot of medleys in the show, including a doo-wop medley and one for all the great Motown hits. I made a prediction that everyone will be able to sing along to at least five songs, no matter when they grew up!"

The '00s section will include songs from Aiken's first album, the double-platinum "Measure of a Man," and will preview songs from his upcoming CD. Aiken is about to go into the studio to begin recording the new album.

Clay will perform three songs on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" on July 29 as part of their outdoor Summer Concerts series. He will be singing from Bryant Park.

In connection with his "Good Morning America" appearance and the launch of his summer tour, Clay will be on the cover of the July 24 issue of TV Guide.

The summer tour will be Aiken's first since his successful "Joyful Noise" tour during the Christmas season of 2004. This year's tour will start July 28 in Tom River, NJ. Aiken will play in 25 cities, 26 shows with the tour concluding on September 1, 2005 in Atlantic City, NJ. Here is a list of cities and dates:
