Wow! I can't believe it. I just got an e-mail from Pennyroyal Studio telling me I'd won a retired Eye of Horus Pendant in their Peace Pendant contest. I'd ordered a bronze Peace Pendant that's scheduled to arrive tomorrow, but I missed out on the other offerings so I'm very excited(!!!) to receive the Eye of Horus. I never win anything! And definitely never such a special gift. There are still several prizes left in the contest. I didn't read the details before and didn't realize how generous Pennyroyal is being with their rewards. Good thing I'm probably going to be up all night working anyway--so behind on a deadline--because I'm a little too wired to sleep now! Congrats!! I did not buy the Eye of Horus through Pennyroyal, but in December of 2009 I did purchase a small Eye of Horus pendant from my local Wiccan goods store and I wear it practically every day. Adam got that tattoo for protection and that is why I wear mine. I am not superstitious, but I am spiritual and I am Wiccan. I have had a really blessed couple of years in work and family, and the one day I forgot to put that necklace on I had what I would call one of my worst days at work ever. So I wear it and embrace what ever protection it provides me. |

Bringing this over from yesterday's thread to respond...Irish, I saw the pics Adam took are totally fine. Since me and Adam are from the same age group--we are only a few months apart in age really--I can say that this kind of picture posing is totally normal. I can't speak for the gay community, but it's def not uncommon to go out to ANY BAR and take pics and look all wild and crazy. IMO there is nothing wrong or scandalous or disrespectful to Sauli about it. They are just hamming and glamming it up for the camera and trying to look fierce. It's not like they are making out or anything, It's just a pic, and if their crotches seem to be touching--lol--then oh well. My boobs have inadvertently touched other ppl while taking pics, and that don't mean shit haha. . I'm sure you are right and I'm OK with that pic. But - there are a lot of people thinking like Irish and that's why I think it was perhaps unnecessary to tweet that pic. Here is one example from Adam 24/7 news: " It seems as if he is trying to sabotage himself.
Make himself less attractive and more apt to not be thought of as a serious person. No one who loves him cares that he's gay, but the fence sitters look and say "Oh, he's one of those freaky ones." You don't see Ricky Martinez or Clay Aiken or Elton looking less thAN their best." :  ??? |

And if it is a legit fan I have to wonder... DO THEY EVEN KNOW WHO THEY STAN? Srsly. He has always been outrageous and wearing crazy stuff and shit. Who gives a flying fuck what the fence sitters say? This was him hanging out at a gay club, looking fierce and doing what he has done for years. If you try to please everyone then you please NO ONE. I am thinking this is a troll. But whatever. As much as I personally like his more toned down looks and like to get all rage-y over his hair, lol, in the end it's his bidness how he chooses to present himself. I don't even know why this is an issue. It was a party pic with some gay dudes and some wacky hair, ya think the famdom would be used to this stuff by now LOL. |

And most likely a Clay Aiken fan troll. I've seen pics of Clay Aiken and really, unless he is dressed up for a rare public appearance, he looks a mess - like he just grabbed up any wrinkled rag and nasty sandals and put them on and forgot to comb his hair. I think it's a troll who just included Ricky and Elton to mask their trollness. ;D |

I just want to agree with Chunky about this, all of it. Except for the part about being Adam's age. I only wish. I think I was always an old lady, even when I was in my twenties. |

I don't want him to be ANYONE BUT HIM. One of the many reasons I love him. LOL If he wanted to be likeable to Clay Aiken fans I would CERTAINLY not be an stan. JMHO. Trolls and jealous people are on every comment section. |

After watching the Heidi interview way too many times and reading everyone’s comments and evaluating Adam’s tweets from last night, I can finally enjoy it without being totally pissed at her for her intrusion into what is a sensitive subject with Adam. The first *** viewings brought back the AMA and gay comments from all those interviewers when I wanted to hire an enforcer to beat the crap out of them then send them to both journalism school to learn how to do a little research and be original with their questions then send them to sensitivity classes to recognize that you don’t ask a stranger for a kiss, a make-over, or about his sex life. I don’t even know where all this hostility came from, and it’s not from a motherly place, believe me, but faced with his class and grace, you’d think others would show a little of the same. |
