OT Request
I need a change from IE. Which is better Chrome or Firefox? PM me so as not to take up News space if you have a suggestion.

I have a feeling gelly that the conservative gays are still somewhat shunning Adam. I remember Adam tweeting that "gays eat their own" and unfortunately many of them still have a stick up their collective ar*ses when Adam is brought up. This doesn't seem true with the international gay community but who knows. Maybe I'm just being pessimistic and Adam just didn't have the time. JMHO. Seems like a non-issue to me. All we know is that Adam did not attend the GLAAD Awards. Nothing indicates that he wasn't invited. But why would we want Adam to support GLAAD? Anyway I am not openminded about GLAAD who I believe are status quo apologists. For example, GLAAD is now helping NBC with the Tracy Morgan situation so that NBC doesn't have to boot Morgan off 30 Rock. It is what they do and why they get the big corporate donations. I don't really have a problem with him remaining on good terms with GLAAD; just like you sometimes have to play the political game with networks, corporate peeps, etc. Doesn't hurt to stay on their good side and long as there is mutual respect there. However, I could totally see him not wanting to go if it's just to attend. He's already appeared in an official capacity and as he has said, these kinds of events aren't often all that fun. If he is making an official appearance, it's work. If he's just going to go, he probably figures, "Meh, I'd rather hang out with my awesome friends or my hot ass boyfriend, thanks."

I will answer the browser question here ---
This forum looks better in Firefox. Chrome is faster and Google has has done the best job making their browser resistant to viruses and other trouble. IE is the worst choice IMHO.

ITA that he needs to stay on good terms with them. And you make a good point about these kind of appearances being work for Adam. Also, RCA Ed has posted a couple of times that Adam is turning down performance and appearance opportunities right now.

IE is the worst choice IMHO. I switched to having this on Firefox, but I have a weird thing on Firefox 4; my scroll gets stuck. Like, I don't have to be holding down the scroll bar and the page will flip all over the place. I have to click on the page to make it stop. Kind of bugs, but overall, I prefer it. Kind of strange, some international fans on Twitter seemed suddenly all distressed about Adam. I ignored it at first, but as some people were getting more upset, I clicked on what they were talking about. There seems to be a Facebook rumor that says he was in an accident or something and judging from the various languages in the FB thread, many people are believing and perpetuating it. So sad how these things can get started. To any internationals who have heard that, I am 99.999999% sure it's a random rumor. I've had the L.A. news on all morning and been online. There is nothing in at all to substantiate this. I would be willing to bet he's just going about his daily routine.

WOW! The Adam accident rumor is everywhere on Twitter.
Can't figure out where it started or even in what language.
And it is clearly a rumor.
I tried to find anything about it outside of Twitter and just got "Adam Lambert tried to crash Lady Gaga's party."
ETA: Well not exactly everywhere on Twitter but a lot of tweets about it.

I've seen the same news stories over and over and over, including fender benders (why am I watching this ... oh yeah, it's just on). I wonder if it was one of those fake news story plants where it says it's a joke in tiny print at the bottom.

I saw my son and all they boys and girls at his age using it and it's VERY fast and I loved it.Very good for protection from viruses also.

Good morning! I use Firefox, no problems for me. Looks really good. Susie, my heart stopped when I read your post about the rumor. Glad it's just that.
