12/17: Changes forthcoming with the blog (nothing bad!)

For you regulars who are reading this, I am going to move to wordpress soon. I think it’s best to start on a Monday but since I’m on vacation next week, I’m going to officially launch over to the new site on December 29, 2008. In other words, I will keep posting at this url until then. I’m going to post a farewell transitional blog entry on December 28 or 29 on this blog and tell everyone to move over there. If you want to know now, the link is http://blogs.ajc.com/american-idol-blog/ though there is nothing there yet. I want to give myself a little time to play with the new software, figure things out.

Thank you all for your patience. The good news: Wordpress will post your comments MUCH MUCH faster. And I think there’s actual polling software there, too. So that’s all good.

Thanks for the update Rodney, looking forward to being on Wordpress. I was starting to think that I would have to fly down there and make the switch myself.

Yes, Rodney have a great vacation! Don’t think of us here… alone, with no new blog entries to entertain us, cowering in the cold, yearning for a better blog format. Nope, you have a great time off, we’ll manage… manage to turn the place into complete anarchy, but never mind that you deserve some time off!

Thanks for the update, Rodney. …have fun! But I suspect you’ll be adding Idol news while you’re away since you can’t seem to resist our happy smiling cyber-faces! We’ll keep a light in the window for ya!

Thanks for the update Rodney. We can’t wait to began using WP. I have used it on other sites and for those who haven’t, WP IS GREAT. Thank you, thank you for all that you do for us . In case you don’t know, we appreciate and respect what you do on here. And, as you have notice, we always come to your defensive if we have to…..example, the previous blog. We don’t like for anyone to criticize you. You have a great vacation and a very Merry Christmas.

Looks like we’ll be gearing down for the holidays. For those of you who won’t be hanging around until after the new year…Merry Christmas and Happy new Year!

Yipppeeeee! OK, that’s my reaction to moving to WordPress! So exciting.

Rodney, hope you have a great holiday and thanks for keeping us all updated on the Idols. Your work is definitely appreciated! BTW, I just got the Keith Urban Concert DVD, haven’t seen it…but I’ll let you know if one of us in it! :)

Good Morning bloggers. I’m running late this morning. Been at the office since 6am and this is the first chance I’ve had to post. End of the year reports and auditors does not make me a happy camper, but they come with the job.

I brought alot of my Christmas cd’s to play and I listened to Clay Aiken’s and again, I was reminded of why I like him so much. If any of you Claymates have never heard his cd, I would certainly recommend it. It’s title is “Merry Christmas With Love”. The first track is “O Holy Night” and he does an amazing job of it. Google it and let me know what you think of the song. The whole CD is wonderful and easy on the ears. His voice is clear as a bell.. I know this sounds as if I’m promoting the cd and I guess I am, but it is really great.

Okay, now back to work.
