I am sure you are all aware of how great everyone is!

I get my daily update about the last two big events that have been going on through the Message Board. When the "Best American Idol" contest was going on, it was quite apparent that the winner - Adam Lampert was on tour (at the end), and once they were off stage, their numbers went up by the thousands. It was revealed that many recent AI candidates joined the fun and voted for him.

On the other hand (before their onslaught) Clay fans had Clay #1 for a short time. Boy that looked great. When it was over and our wonderful Clay fans here on OFC and other boards worked so very hard to get our guy up front we knew WE WERE LEGAL!

Still when it ended the Twitter Company that put on this poll gave Clay's fans a big "HORRAY" and I, personally was so pleased at the fact that these people realize the Clay fans cannot be denied! Of course, they did not mention that we were fighting three of four other fan sites who left their own to vote for Adam, and I have a gut feeling they were aware.

ALL OF YOU WHO VOTED EVERY 20 MINUTES HAVE TO BE RECOGNIZED AS THE GREATEST FANS ON EARTH!

Now, we are fighting to get Clay's Foundation with its new name to become first in the current effort to fight for ALL CHILDREN by winning the BIG CASH AWARD. Now, understand - I am only one person with only one e-mail address - BUT suddenly when I went to my newly formed FACEBOOK, there was the Foundation asking for help and the contest for the most needy charity to receive the CASH award. I was amazed at the response in both cases -- by people I do not know. How great is that?

Now, I feel a whole lot better that I have sent the message to a bunch of NJU (not just us). We just may get a whole new bunch of Clay fans --- who knows.

I only hope that Clay realizes how much we care for him and work for his charities. I have a friend (not a young kid, either) who has been "wrapping" for his charity for years. There are so many personal stories out there that we are unaware of - and we have every right to feel VERY PROUD!

So, join me to say to the girls on the Message Board who keep us up to date as to where we stand --- (they are so dedicated) and in addition, give a great big THANK YOU! - YOU ARE LOTS OF FUN!

Talk to you soon. Happy Fall! Marian
