Would someone please explain to me where the word "neme" came from? I have tried to understand but it's not sinking in. Adam had some sort of contest with AT&T where people were to submit their "nemes" -- I never got it. (Or was in "Memes"?) "Meme" is a word coined by biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976 to describe the phenomenon of how ideas and fads spread in modern society -- ideas like songs, fashions, catch phrases, etc. On the internet, "meme" is often used to describe those images with white words on them that make some kind of clever point, presumably with the idea that they will spread like an actual "meme" does. |

And speaking of the AT&T contest, isn't that appearance for the winners happening this month in NYC? |

I hope some of y'all will step up and help Q3 out. You know she is the energizer bunny but if she is asking us for help that means she is really snowed under. "Many hands make light work" I thought enough people had already volunteered, sorry. I can help out this weekend, if it's not too late. |

Way off topic-
I was looking for pillowcases last night on amazon and noticed that there were several pillowcases with celebrity photos on them - Hugh Jackman, Eminem, N.E.R.D. (Pharrell), etc. So I searched for pillowcases with Adam, and there were quite a few, some for bed pillows, some for throw pillows. Who knew...
I am assuming that these are using the images without permission because if they were official they'd be on sale through Adam's merch store.
peace&love

Thanks Red Panda......enjoyed that July 2013 vid from Paso Robles!
Kickin In is one of my favorite tunes live. Here's another one from Cos2mwiz from Bleaulive in Miami 4 months later. Like you, since I was there up close, it's really special. That was a great, intimate venue and he looked mighty fine!

"Many hands make light work" I thought enough people had already volunteered, sorry. I can help out this weekend, if it's not too late. No need to be sorry. I had asked for help doing the Australia and NZ shows and Nikki volunteered to do the photos and tweets for all of those show for me. Q3 is looking for help with her NA shows. I had finished my NA shows so moved over to the overseas concerts. |
