Before 11pm Kathleen!!!! Yeah I admit I do fall asleep before 11pm at night.... I actually am known to fall asleep at 9pm right when something I want to watch on TV ...... Bad enough to miss the entire program only to wake up at 11pm hearing my own name on the news saying I was killed in a fire.... Happened last night in fact. Needless to say my phone was ringing so many times today wondering if the plant was closed due to the death of the owner....... I honestly hope no one shares the same name with more people in their community like I do. I have seen my name in newspaper obituaries as well. Sure did scare me... I had to ask myself did I die? The person below me has: Seen their name in the local newspapers!!!!

Well hello Robert. No actually I have never seen my name in the newspaper obituaries thank god. My last name is dutch as per my husband so , I don't think it would be in there until my time comes. I am still young and wanting children soon. Well the person below me is either is just waking up or going to bed like me.

Just waking up here..... Actually 1 1/2 hours trying to get started for a very long day I guess. It is right now 7:15am ..... Glad your name was not in the obituaries...... Person below me is reading emails and drinking tea. Ram_Industries Robert Montgomery http://Martech-Inc.biz

Oh almost Robert, I am reading email BUT drinking Diet Coke...

I also want to answer your previous one about newspapers (well because I can right LOL - I did start this thread so I am sure that is going to give me all kinds of wonderful rights and stuff that we can't even begin to be aware of LOL).

OK, yes I have been in a National Newspaper (so not local) over here in the UK called The Daily Express and the way I found out I was in there (picture of me) was to be told by the person the article was about, and that is (no laughing, or if you do,  muffle it please LOL) Donny Osmond.

Most of you probably know I am a lifelong fan of Donny and his brothers and have now met him a ton of times, so much so, he now knows who I am ok...

Well a couple of years ago - he is extremely popular over here again by the way, he sells out Stadium size concert venues when he tours - I digress, sorry, anywho... Donny was over here promoting the release of his latest CD which was the first one he wrote himself or co-wrote - one of the promotional gigs was at one of our huge Record Stores where he was going to do a half hour singing session of new tracks and then sign copies of the CD for the waiting (flippin huge crowd I must say).

So I was in London for other TV shows he was going to be on and generally having a great time with all my friends and getting to bump into Donny a few times.

At the CD gig, there were a ton of press as you would expect, all sitting at the feet of those of us at the front (queued for ages for that) - ignored them completely of course because along with being a great singer Donny is great fun when he gets a live audience in front of him, so I was completely unaware of the press sometimes turning to photograph the audience.

The next day, very early I made my way over to the London TV studios, getting there early like some others to have a quick chat with D on his way in.

His car arrives and we saunter over to the entrance hoping he will have time to come over (which he always finds time to do so) but as we got there, D got out of his car, newspaper in hand, walking fast over to me and my friends and pointing at me!!

"Help what the heck have I done!!" was my first thought...

So I stop dead in my tracks - Donny gets to me, and says

"Hey your in the papers" and shows me the full spread - well I was, to coin a UK phrase, "Gobsmacked" firstly to be in the paper and secondly for Donny to be telling me! we normally tell him "hey Donny you made the papers etc"...

Donny said, you look like you enjoyed yourself, you look really happy...

Sure enough there was this huge picture of the crowd and me slap inthe centre of the picture, grinning away like nobodies business..

I remember what had happened, I was concentrating on Donny at the gig, like you do LOL and he walked from one side of the small stage area to the other and my eyes followed but at a certain point there was a camera stuck right in front of me and that is when the picture must have been taken.

Anyway, sorry for the long post, it was a fun memory (yep I have the paper)..

The person below me went to sleep five minutes ago whilst reading my above post.

Opps Sue: Fell asleep at computer , now I have these strange letters across my forehead.... We have a show here that Donny is the MC of... its about making someones dream come true...... Its an ok show but I think it is below Donny's style. I have met him many times myself... never got in papers because of him. I know Susan Olson personally tho. She was Cindy on the Brady Bunch here in the USA...... Every time she comes to my city we hook up to have some laughs....... I also know alot of others many you may not ever have heard of.... many you may have... My city has alot of well known personalities..... Hilary Clinton comes to our area alot, as well as our Governor Rendell, and many well known singers and actors are from here. Ok something I am going to try and start here.... I will start a sentence, I am going to ask everyone that posts here to add something to the sentence to create a story. but when you add something you must also add what was said before you.... example.... I write ...... I saw a dog Someone else writes...... give the heimlich... so this is how it must read when posting..... Robert writes... I Someone write ...watched Someone else ... a monkey someone else ....wearing someone else.....a bikini If you all get the idea....... The person below me is like what is he trying to say to us? Dogs have a strange sense of...... Ram_Industries Robert Montgomery http://Martech-Inc.biz
