I wonder how long this poll will be opened... Hope not till December ;D voting as much as I can, but getting pains from the left clicks... :( BTW - good thing to do while on the phone or in a boring meeting... Are y'all 100% sure that we can vote endlessly on this grammy thingie? I mean, when I vote I always get this message: So, does this mean, " The vote you just made one second ago has been recorded"? Or, does it mean, " The very first vote you made 36 hours ago was duly noted, so GTFO and get a life"? Just wondering. Get a life???? Now I'm confused....

If you try to vote without a valid selection, a RED rectangle shows up with a message that you did not select anything. When you make a selection (in other words, click on Adam, obviously) and press the button, a GREEN rectangle shows up with a message that your vote was counted. If duplicates were not allowed, I would have expected a RED (or possibly YELLOW) rectangle. Speaking from a programmer/UI designer POV. I could be wrong, but I would be very surprised. ;D

Just to clarify, in no way did I say that I thought Adam should go back in the closet/screen door, hide the fact that he has a boyfriend or any such jumps that were made re my previous post. I specifically said I was not judging him. Feeling like my points were missed because of a knee jerk reaction to defend. I didnt even say he did anything wrong, only that I felt you could read into his tweet as much as the others. As nica said, there is a difference between going and advertising on twitter, and if you were ok with him deleting his ambian tweets due to Idol then I don't understand why it would be different for him to not lead the media to this places website due to Idol. Someone judged my post as talking about a nonissue. But guess I was also trying to address the issue of equality. Am I wrong thinking that a bar like this that shows off very scanily dressed women in bare bottom chaps and had "big fat boob night" would not be considered reputable? Wouldn't you take issue with the objectifying of women like this? What judgements would you make if all you knew about a new artist was he said this titty bar was EVERYTHING? It is something to think about. But maybe it is be cause I think of equal as equal,and gay ( or anything else) doesn't give you a pass just because most gay clubs may be like this. The n word is offensive to me regardless of who is saying it IMO. I am not at issue with Adam going to these type of places but could understand if others, especially those who don't know him, were. I love and respect Adam like the rest of you. I don't want him to change so please refrain from implying I do. But if you think that Adam puts no thought into his public image or doesn't alter himself in any way for the audience he is in front of, just like the rest of us, then I beg to differ. And I certainly don't think that would mean he was being untrue to himself. I see your point. According to twitter Fubar is acronym for " Fd Up Beyond All Recognition". ???

If I were Adam, I would not say ANYTHING about Idol until I saw the judges' panel with my own eyes and there wasn't a chair for me. Up until then, anything's possible.
And, just for the heck of it:
The strip club (adult entertainment club?) issue is more a matter of opinion than an equality issue, I think.
I don't take issue with those who go to adult clubs or those who work at them.
As for people judging Adam for going there? Well, I agree some people would or do, but I don't think Adam cares about trying to make his life seem COMPLETELY "PG-rated" at ALL times when it isn't (and there's no need for it to be).
ETA - Good heavens, I just remembered that one of the possible judges has been to rehab which made my uneditted post very tacky! :redface:

QUESTION: Speaking about Adam ninjas ---> 8-)
Does anyone remember the burrito-on-a-plate story from a long time ago? Was it from the old Planet Fierce? Or the old Atop?
I think maybe Adam tweeted a picture of a burrito, and NO OTHER INFORMATION WHATSOEVER, and within a matter of minutes the EXACT location of the burrito was confirmed. Can someone please tell that story again, because my memory is dismal.

I know the ninjas tracked down the airport and terminal Adam was at because of the eating establishment photo and other obscure airport details. I have trouble finding my gate..LOL.. Mys*&@^#r, was that you who nailed that one? :lninja: :lninja:

We could see the outsite of the airport LAX and they knew which terminal and which airline and what time the flights were, however, we missed that he was headed to Denver.
