Have anyone seen the Weight Watchers TV commercial with a female vocalist singing AOBTD? Pretty terrible cover. I think they really missed this one and could have really attracted their female target audience with an Adam + Queen cover. (I list Adam first because he is the part that would attract their target audience.) I saw it and it's horrible. Would much prefer your idea. I do appreciate the use of "You're my best friend" in the Petsmart commercial. Perfect song choice.

I just wanted to say thanks to those who bring news over about Adam's friends, Sauli especially, but I also like hearing occasionally about what other friends are doing too. I'd never hear about them otherwise with all the different social media to check on. Seeing that Sauli has arrived just makes me happy.

However, mine is excellent! Translation... Here I am, walking on the streets of Buenos Aires. I'm not quite sure where I'm going. It's raining, not so nice. *** So as you can see, I don't have an umbrella anymore. Suddenly there was this huge gust of wind and it just flew away somewhere, and to put it bluntly, it just went into fucking pieces. *** So I came to Buenos Aires for some shopping and I found a chicken salad and this some kind of a wonderful summery drink. Nothing else. (chuckles) *** Buenos Aires! Lovely weather. Look at my umbrella! This is really useful. Oh, wonderful! I'll show it to you from the window. (shows the reflection in the window). This is a really practical umbrella. *** Okay, so I survived the storm. I had to come and get an espresso with something small to drink after that horrible walk. I see you're bringing a translation here from another site. I should think some credit and a link would be in order. The link was in my previous post, maybe READ IT!

This is coming from a dinosaur of this thread. I began with Planet Fierce in 2009, and following Adam has been part of my life since that time. Many of us followed the entire relationship of Adam/Sauli for two years. What's happening now is not 'shipping' - this is remembering and relating to Adam's life and his happiness of several years ago. Through Adam's tweets; through the media; through actually meeting Sauli at the 2012 concerts in London, many of us who are still here remember a great deal about their relationship, their 'household', their break-up. So, for us, seeing Sauli in Buenos Aires is not our telling of 'fan fiction'; we are not fantasizing to a greater degree than anyone here who has fun with the GB or the pants or the (beautiful) backside or the profile or even the armpits. We are playing - - - just as Adam plays with us - with the mic stand, with the hip thrusts, with the tongue and the licks. This part; these comments about Sauli in Buenos Aires, are meant to be speculative joy, and I am surprised that it's okay to talk about every aspect of AFL; but somehow to wonder if Adam might be with Sauli, in Buenos Aires, is considered off limits by some. Adam found joy with Sauli - why should it be off-limits to imagine what their association might be now? I've been reticent about posting since last May - when the furor over 'older Glamberts' hit the proverbial shit fan. I'm really beyond caring what others think, anymore. I'm here for Adam. End of story. There, I said it. I won't apologize anymore. Boy. Has this site changed.

End of story. There, I said it. I won't apologize anymore. Boy. Has this site changed. You can see that the EuroAtopians are just waking up to discussions that took place during our night. Well said, my dear friend Momtomany....as ever. From my own point of view, I have come to love Adam the Man, not just the singer, over all these years. I cannot imagine that anyone could be here every day and not feel at least some engagement with his personal happiness as well as his professional career....but, of course, we are all different. Sauli has been a happy part of Adam's existence and seems likely to remain so, in whatever form. I take pleasure in that. it doesn't change my life at all - wouldn't break my heart if they never saw each other again - but why would I deliberately not want to know that they are having a few happy days together? It enhances the whole happy vibe of this tour - just another nice thing for Adam. For me, that's as much AdamNews as the latest hair style or cover pics. And I'm pretty sure that they only let us see what they want us to see...and who doesn't enjoy creating a little controlled intrigue and interest? They have demonstrated that often enough....

Sorry for the soapbox post. Perhaps I can blame it on finally eating after a 25 hour fast. Or perhaps I can blame it on spending the past day thinking about the past year of my life and hoping for the grace to live a better life and be a better person. I know I have a lot of work to do and do not feel like I have much right to tell anyone else what is right. Thank you Q3-that is beautiful
