Since we are looking at all the acronyms, I have long wondered what the whole Lolly thing is.... I figured it had something to do with Lutz (which took forever to figure out too!). You mean lulz? The lolly thing just came about because Hoppers is hilarious and her husband was quick to hand out lollies to appease their daughter and her young friends. (I hope I'm remembering this correctly, Hoppers). She borrowed the tradition to help appease when we got angsty or celebrate when there was a reason to flail. It started on MJ's, went to PF and then both Atops. We actually need to create a lolly smiley for you Hoppers. ETA: LOLL(lies) I was willing to bet by the time I finished this post, you would have answered, Hoppers. I just didn't know if you were around, so didn't want to leave yippie hanging.

Cassie - you're a star. You sounded just as impressive on the radio as you always do on AT. ps. I lost sound at the very end so I'll have to go to the web to hear the comment made by an Adam fan . At the end she quoted Adam's tweet about the best part of being a singer. To communicate thoughts and feelings. Perfect tweet for the program, don't you think? And thanks to all who listened in. It was at times excruciating for me... didn't realize I took so much time to articulate my thoughts. Spit it out, girl!!!! But, listening to Angelina talk about all the ways a singer communicates, what makes the performance special, I kept thinking "She's talking about Adam! He personifies every point she is making!" Hope other listeners realized that, too. I don't know if the show will be rebroadcast. Sometimes they rerun her programs for a week. But, it should be on YT within a couple of days, if she follows her pattern. And, there should be a blog with supporting videos out soon, too. Again, thanks for indulging me by listening. I don't think I have a future in radio, but I was happy to talk about Adam. Come on now, you talked about a lot more than Adam, and I think Angelina picked up a few little bits from you too!! ............and the bit I've put in red; don't tell me you've never thought all of that before because you've been saying it to us for months! Perhaps you didn't realise it, but you had it covered girl !

"Lolly" is just short for lollipop. You know, the candies you suck on. Its a very strange tradition that goes all the way back when most of us were posting on mjsbigblog, and lollipops were passed out at the start of [American Idol Season 8] concert threads. The lollipops then traveled to Planet Fierce, and then to Adamtopia! ETA: [grin] And if you REALLY want to get into the nitty-gritty of things, the lollipops were invented as part of a virtual "time out" chair situation when Anoop fans got out of hand! ;D ah, such good times! As soon as you mentioned Anoop fans, I remembered Alison (I think that was her name). Huge Anoop fan but very snarky and funny... I wonder if she still stans him. NGL, I sometimes miss those crazy early days at MJ's!

BTW, if any of you listening to the broadcast kept it on after the sign off, that beautiful soprano singing was Angelina!

cassie: great job! So fun to "hear" you! I found it all very interesting, but the volume on my computer was low, so I didn't make all of it out, and will wait for the transcript to appear at soundbath. You and Angelina are definitely on the same wave length when it comes to Adam. Loved the selection of songs she played! YOU ROCK!!!!!

You absolutely sounded many times better than most of the radio personalities I've listened to in the last two years ...

Susie's right tho' when she says in RL my husband is the source of the lollys!! He really does buy them in bulk, and then we pass them out to the neighborhood kids for leaf raking, stick pickup after storms, etc. It really gets like a page of Tom Sawyer around here at times! However, we're getting to the point where the older boys are like "skip the lollys just hand us cash". The little kids don't care about cash, they want the lollipops. ;D
