I just want to say that I interpreted Keyboard's post a little differently than some of you did. I took it to mean that he thought Adam probably does not have an easy road ahead of him and that he may never become as popular and famous as we think he should be. That the road may be rough ahead and if the roller coaster ride causes you distress, it may always be there for him, and maybe that should be considered. Wow. That is such a kind and generous interpretation of "you may want to take a reality check with your Abilify"!

One question about this Fault magazine pre-sale pre-sale. I have my parallel email and twitter but have avoided setting up the same up on FB, because my understanding is that FB frowns upon those multiple ID people and is actively making people taking the parallel ones down. Not sure, how true that is, but that is what I have heard, so I have just stopped my parallel ID internet presence short of Facebook. Has anyone heard whether people who don't do this FB-like deposit process can still order the magazine come March 1? Potentially at a non-discounted price. Are they just trying to get a handle on their anticipated sales volume or are they shutting non FB folks out from getting the issue # 10? Just trying to understand what I'm dealing with...thanks I had paralell facebooks, and eventually got asked to verify with a cell phone number (with the small print that all my other facebook accounts would then be deleted), so I abandoned these fan ones although I had used them with no trouble for about a year before getting this message. I think it was triggered when I tried to post a comment rather than just a 'like' from my fan Facebook page. I played with the privacy settings on my RL facebook to hide my likes and commenting activity from my wall. Now they don't show up there, though I'm sure big-brother-facebook is aware of them ;D Also on twitter I think Fault said that they really, really want the facebook likes, and are changing the URL to the ordering page occasionally to try to get around 'cheating' this system and just going straight to the ordering page URL.

Does it work if you just go directly to the booksmagazinesetc.com link? I don't see why you couldn't order by doing so - they don't use your FB info - (mine's fake) and you have to enter your particulars anyway. www.booksmagazinesetc.com/proddetail.php?prod=K9kBfNsh5tBct7MeSV5G(I'm sure they want to get "likes" for their FB page, but I don't think you HAVE to like them to order the issue....anybody know?) They said they would reduce the price of the issue by so much (too lazy to go back and see how much) for each 500 LIKES. Ah....I thought it was per "deposit". So it's definitely better for all of us if everyone who orders 'likes' them on FB....

I hope someone breaks the Youtube interview down into two segments. My older dialup computer can't handle a video that long at one time. I tried to play it through and it shut me down halfway thru. Can you download it and play it? I can download the shorter videos - 3min - which take about 45 min to download and then I can play them. The much longer ones are a lost cause for me. I think it's because I am on a slow speed dialup but that is what I have right now and I'm thankful for that. 8-)

Well I hope they don't try to match up the "likes" with the order, cuz my name isn't the same. :-/

Clear Channel owns the largest number of radio stations in the US -- but not most stations about 850 stations plus 12 SirusXM stations. They are now privately held by Bain Capital and Thomas H. Lee Partners LP. Bob Pittman who founded MTV is now CEO. It is not a conservative company. Cumulus Media has 570 stations and is #2. They are very conservative. CBS Radio has about 130 stations and is #3. There are 14,420 full-service radio stations in the US including 6,479 FM commercial stations. So no one owns most of the radio stations. I know nothing about Barry Manilow and Clear Channel and Adam. Interesting.. there is this whole hoopla about Romney and Bain Capitol and how Romney gave millions in Bain stock dividends to the Mormon Church.Small world Cumulus>>>Morman church>>>David Archuleta>>>Crazy DJ Archie fan >>>lack of radio support David is in the middle of all of this mess! It is all David Archuleta's fault!!!

So it's definitely better for all of us if everyone who orders 'likes' them on FB.... I'm pretty sure that it's 500 deposits. The problem is that you have to get to their FB page to get to the order tab, altho they did say you could e-mail them.

For every 500 fans who place a deposit on the issue, we will reduce its price by £1.50, up to a minimum order price of £4.50 I don't think the "like" has anything to do with the pricing.
