The contest thru the fan club. Rob is giving away 5 pairs of tix to the Pets alive benifit with him and Chris Daughtry at the end of this month.
There is a thread at the top of the boards from Ty explaining it. You have to tell why you love Rob in 20 words or less. and be a fan club memeber. The deadline is tomorrow.
You should enter.

Hope you are smiling today.
Linda

Linda,

Thx for the info. Sounds like a great show, but I wouldn't want to take a ticket from someone else. Rob's been sooo good to me, and wouldn't want to take advantage, in the event he gave me one.

Funny story about Daughtry. About 2 years ago, one of my neighbors came across this website, where you can anonymously send emails to people and put in someone elses name in the from clause. In anycase, I played a joke on Lynda and she played a similar joke on her cousin Lorraine. Here's where Daughtry comes into play. Lynda and Lorraine are huge Rob Thomas/MB20 fans. Lorraine's also a big Goo Goo Dolls fan. In anycase, Lorraine was suppoed to attend one of their concerts and Lynda sent her one of these fake emails, with the from clause coming from ticketmaster, indicating that Johnny Resnick (lead singer to Goo Goo Dolls, will not be peforming, but instead Chris Daughtry from American Idol will). Lorraine freaked out and called ticket master, and eventually called Lynda praying that it was a joke. Lynda couldn't keep her composure and gave in. Lorraine's particulary fond of Resnick's hair and was beside herself when she found out that Chris was going to perform in his place. Chris wasn't popular back then, fresh out of American Idol. It was so funny, and we all laughed. I think it's funny how Lynda pulled Chris Daughtry out of thin air to play a joke on her cousin with and now Rob's playing with Chris Daughtry. Don't get me wrong, Lynda liked Chris, but thought it would be funny if someone who didn't have hair replaced her cousin's heart throb.

Anycase, sorry for the long story, just wanted to share the personal connection.

Thx again for the info.

LOL! What a funny story. Don't you just love jokes like that? Who did Lynda get an e-mail from? Wait...let me guess...Rob?

Thank for sharing that.

You should enter the contest. The whole story you just told me, kind of seems like fate.

I think you have the right to enter. Not one person on this board would think you didn't deserve the same chance as everyone else.

You really should think about it...but don't think too long. You have until tomorrow at 6:00pm PST.

Good luck if you decide to do it.

Hugs,
Linda

p.s. I think Lynda would want you to.

Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same

p.s. I think Lynda would want you to.

I sent the original email to Lynda, with the email supposedly coming from my mother to Lynda, that my mother was coming for a sudden visit from Florida for several weeks and was bringing her 4 cats. Lynda actually called my mother - it was very funny. We have two cats of our own, however, 4 cats plus my mother was just way too much. The cats alone would've been ok..........just kidding : ) ......maybe not : )

Although the concert sounds good, I didn't realize it was the night before Lynda's unveiling. We're having a ceremony at the cemetery on the 26th, and I'll probably be cleaning up the house and preparing for the service the night before. I think it would be way too much for me to attend his concert emotionally the night before Lynda's unveiling, even though there's a strange hidden message in this whole thing. Thx again, very sweet of you.

That is funny. Reminds me of a trick I played on my hubby. It was christmas day a few years ago. I got him one of those fake lottery tickets. Gave it to him in the car on the way to my moms for a party. He was freaking out...screaming I won...I won. I won 10,000. OMG! It took all I had to not burst out laughing. He finally read the back of the ticket and it said prizes may be redemed through the tooth fairy. He was so mad at me. But was it ever funny.

I am sure you will get to see Rob soon. I wouldn't worry to much about it. It will happen.

What exactly happens during an unveiling? I am sorry I don't know what that is.

Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same

That's sooo funny what you did to your husband. I saw something like that on America's funniest Videos. Someone else pulled the same joke on her husband and taped his reaction. That's sooo funny - I wonder what his revenge was : )

That's ok, it's a Jewish tradition, where family and friends meet at a person's grave site after the headstone's setup. The Clergy says a few prayers at the site, where friends and family gather. Irony, is that Lynda's not even Jewish and very Catholic (Italian/German), however, I don't have any catholic relatives in my county, and the town where Lynda's relatives are buried wouldn't bury her their, cause she wasn't a resident. Yeah, bunch of B.S., but in the long run this is better, cause the cemetery that I buried Lynda at is the same one where my relatives/father are and it's also a few miles from my job. I can visit often.

Lynda's maiden name was Haas (German). This XMAS is going to be sooo difficult w/out her. It was her favorite holiday, and occassionally someone would mistake Lynda for being Jewish (my last name is Horowitz), and Occassionally wish her a Happy Hanukah, instead of Merry XMAS. My poor little baby, I used to tease her about that, but make it up to her with all the XMAS decorations and cool gifts. Sorry getting a bit sad now, gonna take a break. Thx for the nice walks down memory lane. I love thinking about and talking about Lynda. God, I miss her soooo much.

Howard...that sounds really nice. I hope you and your family will feel Lynda's presence at the unveiling. Maybe a sense of happiness. I hope lots of smiles will come from all the wonderful stories you can tell about her.
I can only imagine what you must be going through. It is so hard to lose loved ones but even harder to lose your soulmate.


The holidays are the hardest. I too love christmas. It is not far now. I know that I will be thinking of you and hope you are doing ok. Try to keep a smile on your face. I am sure lynda would want you to do that. She would not want you to be sad.

Thanks for talking. It was nice to hear some sweet stories. I am off to bed.

Until next time,
Hugs,
Linda

oh...p.s.my hubby has yet to top that one.

Forever with you
Forever in me
Ever the same

Glad you are ok today.

Yeah, it's a big event on Long Island every year that raises alot of money for a cure. In the 2-3 weeks that my neighbors posted this event to our family/friends, we raised over $3,000 dollars in Lynda's name alone.

I live about 20 minutes from Jones Beach (Commack).
