I wouldn't expect Adam to be there, but didn't expect Steven, either. Steven & Carrie make me think AI and then I think Adam and then I think I want Adam on that stage. I'm not saying it makes sense. I have a feeling that Adam is going to have to pay his dues just like the rest of the music "stars." We already think he is a star, but I am afraid there are people who think he is just starting in the music/recording business. No matter how good he is, everyone has to pay their dues. That is just the conclusion I have come to because I know Adam is the best singer out there. I can think of no other reason he wouldn't be asked to sing with Underwood or Tyler. I think that is just the way life treats you. Pay your dues!!!. I am finished with work early enough to post! Forgive me for being in the middle of the thread. I like your thoughts here, Irish. In my opinion, established stars often think "I worked my way up, so should you...(without my coat tails). A few may be intimidated by a "newbie's" talent. When Adam is the established star, I'm sure there will be many duets. He has nothing to fear talent-wise and he would probably enjoy helping a new artist. I dream someday of Adam owning/hosting his own television show featuring new talent (and lots of Adam!) |

What a coincidence; I just got an email from Adam thanking me for my donation.
You're welcome, Adam!
Well, email was from charity: water with a note from Adam (with a fake Adam autograph.... don't they know to put a capital R in there?)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ching_HaiSupreme Master Ching Hai International is the corporate entity behind Guanyin Famen/Quan Yin. It is affiliated with World Peace Media, Oceans of Love Entertainment, Supreme Master Television, and several cable television series, all groups and businesses established by Ching Hai. Her organisation runs a string of vegetarian restaurants around the world, some of which sell her merchandise.
In late 2008 Ching Hai launched a media campaign in Australia and New Zealand asking people to "Be Green, Go Veg, Save the Planet".[22] Vegetarianism, clean energy, and tree planting were promoted as a solution to climate change and pollution. The Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association also made submissions to the Garnaut Climate Change Review advocating large cuts to livestock production.[23]
According to political scientist Patricia M. Thornton at the University of Oxford, the Ching Hai World Society's heavy reliance on the internet for text distribution, recruitment and information-sharing, marks the group as a transnational "cybersect."[10]
The source of wealth behind the group's charitable efforts and its media empire is a mystery, according to Thornton. Like the Qigong organisations that came to the fore in China in the 1980s and 1990s, Suma Ching Hai International adopted the structure of a business enterprise early on.[10]
Much of the media produced by Suma Ching Hai International is heavily self-referential and promotional, according to Thornton, and aims to "build a public record of recognition for group activities."[10] In 1998 the organization staged a concert for donating to several prominent children's foundations in the U.S., while highlights of the event were captured in a coffee-table book. Ching Hai has had local authorities in various countries declare particular dates "Supreme Master Ching Hai Day."[10]

Is there a chance we could raise another $4,167 before the project expires in six days? I just like nice, round numbers, and that would take it to $325,000.

CLEARLY Adam tweeting #RADIATELOVE is him expressing his concern over the nuclear power plants in Japan. I'm sure he is spear heading a fund raising effort for bedazzled radiation suits for the workers over there, so that they can be a little bit happier as they fight this battle. Clearly. I'm only on page 11 and this is probably way finished being talked about but I've got to say.... Chunkeymonkey you are so damn clever. I love your posts!  And I hope Adam's intention with his tweet to Perzscumb was a good bitch slap!! JMHO, of course!! ;D Sorry if we're way past this subject. Now back to reading the thread. |
