POST YOUR FAVORITE EDDIE MOMENTS (NO NEGATIVE SWILL PLEASE-THIS IS A FAN CLUB) and a letter I found on another board.
Jujubean | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 12:54 am  AGAIN- THIS IS A FAN CLUB BOARD- ENOUGH WITH THE NEGATIVE POSTS AND FLAMES!!!!!! As we are winding down to the last week I thought this might be appropriate. Also, here is a letter I found on another board. I don't know if it's been posted here already. Maybe a while ago? I didn't see it anywhere else, other than where I already posted it in Whatever's thread. ENJOY! _____________________________________________ Posted by GREAT GUY EDDIE IS.. on September 23, 2000 at 21:27:48 I live in Arlington, Texas and I'm a good friend of Eddie. I've known him about 4 years when he enrolled at UT-Arlington, and he's the best! I work at the university and sometimes travel with the basketball team on tournaments. Everyone here at UT-Arlington, in the city of Arlington, Texas and the surrounding areas are definitely Eddie supporters. His mom told me about this website and it's great. I'm so happy that he has so many people behind him. He deserves to win the money and not because he's a friend of mine but because he's the only one that has told it like it is. That's Eddie! A quick story.....in February I was diagnosed with Leukemia and have finished my three rounds of chemo and hospital visits. I have ALOT of friends and they were all wonderful, but Eddie was the only one that understood how I really felt. He'd visit me at the hospital and call and check on me and my mom. He would also bring me junk food, which I truly love him for. There are two incidences that I'd like to share with you and they will always be in my mind and heart. (1) Eddie, and our friend Jon, shaved their heads when I lost my hair during my first round of chemo. It was awful and I was so upset about it, even though I knew it would grow back. But when they came in my room, I just died laughing. They were so cute (not really...Eddie and Jon with no hair - SCARY! - Eddie's head was soooo white.) But that was so awesome for them to do that in honor of me. (2) The day I went home from the hospital, on my first visit, I was so scared. Leaving the hospital and leaving the security of the nurses and doctors was overwhelming. Eddie came by that first afternoon to check on me. He must have sensed my fear, but he sat on the floor by my chair in my living room and just told me that it'll be alright and hugged me. I was crying but that made me feel so much better. As a matter of fact, he was leaving that same night to go home for Spring Break. Even with everything he had to do to get ready to leave, he still made time for me and to make sure I was ok. That is a sign of a kind heart and friend. I just love him to death. He'll forever be my friend and hold a special place in my heart. Thanks for letting me share this with you. Elsa Corral _______________________________________ I remember in Eddie's audition video tape that they showed his hair did look very short as if it was growing out...Does anyone else remember this? This would explain it... I think this is also the same woman originally interviewed by Tobias Xavier Lopez for the Star-Telegram in Texas. I have a bunch of favorite Eddie moments, not just quotes which have already been posted...but right now I'll let you guys start- Because I've got to get some sleep!!! |
Sparky | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 01:02 am  There is a section in the discussions called General - Favorites. I suggest you cut and paste this to Eddie's page. |
Wendy | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 01:15 am  JuJu: Did you steal this idea from my Eddie site???? My favorite Eddie moment had to be when him and Mega got into this very intense argument late at night while sitting at the patio table. Eddie held his ground and I was so in awe of that. (Mega would have scared the crap out of me.) I also fondly remember the night when he sat on the edge of the love bad and stroked Britt's hair. That was cool. |
Jujubean | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 01:40 am  Wendy, Sorry, Haven't been at your site in a while. I'll post mine there too. I thought this board needed it badly because of the Eddie bashers. You're site is great BTW! Okay, now I am REALLY going to bed! |
Really | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 01:52 am  Wendy, would you post your site here, so I could visit it. - But only if it's good stuff about Eddie I'm trying to boycott any anti-Eddie info/posts/threads. It's hard cuz I want to defend him, but there are too many haters out there trying to devour him. Some people just can't see the glass half full. Eddie's the best! |
Dianali | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 05:25 am  I just can't help myself and have to post negative comments in positive threads. It is called flamebaiting, and I can't stop doing it. Pity me. <T> |
Tishala | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 06:04 am  JuJu, Thanks for posting that great letter. Even people who are borderline on Eddie, like me, appreciate that he is not really a bad guy and has many many admirable qualities that we should all emulate. |
Rufusgriswold | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 06:29 am  I am sorry that I decided to flamebait and have my post altered. <T> |
Gottaluvit | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 06:43 am  I am a troll who likes to flamebait!!!!!! <T> |
Teo | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 07:02 am  Eddie playing with the pug in the bedroom! |
Annah | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 07:11 am  Eddie giving Jamie a hug and telling her to ignore those f*ers....when she was upset with negative banner message. Eddie taking on Mega when all the other hg's were afraid of him (except for Brit) Eddie calling to his mother (Mick) when he was most nervous about banishment/walk-out plan, trying to decide what to do Eddie has a foul mouth, but a great heart...the rough exterior is such a defensive cover for the boy within... |
Nadi | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 07:24 am  There are so many negative threads on ALL of the houseguests going around. I don't understand why people feel the need to be so rude in the ones that are meant to be positive. Maybe it makes them feel smug and superior if they are able to get in their subtle jibes. That said some of my favorite Eddie moments are when he is playing with the pug. I really liked the interaction between Eddie and Brit when she was still in the house. The playful almost brotherly teasing and the tender affection he showed her when she was sad. |
Annah | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 07:40 am  Almost Forgot this one.... Eddie comforting George on the many occasions George was in a tizzy about negative banners. |
Rufusgriswold | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 07:51 am  My post was altered above because the moderator thought I was flaming the post. I honestly object. The point of this thread was to describe favorite moments. For many of us, a negative activity WAS a favorite moment. As you know, I have been speaking up for Jamie a lot in the past week, but my favorite Jamie moments almost all have to do with her vanity; the way she constantly turns a conversation to herself. This is not an admirable quality, but it has endeared her to me in the same way that Eddie's farting and belching have endeared him to many of his fans. Eddie p*ssing in front of the others (my favorite moment that was censored above) was a memorable moment for me, just as Jamie picking Tony Sepulveda was a memorable moment for Jamie, neither one of which was particularly admirable. I think Jamie picking Sepulveda was a dumb thing to do, but I still like her. It is possible to remember a negative moment and still like the HG. I like Eddie, but that for me was the defining moment in his personality. There are many, many Eddie fans who think that it was hysterical behavior. Just because someone else doesn't like what he did doesn't make it less memorable. I'm curious as to whether this explanation will be retained here. |
Koka | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 08:08 am  I admire Eddie for telling everyone that he is going to start voting strategically and thatthe friendships in the house don't really mean that much to him compared to what the money can do for him and his family. He was nakedly honest when he could have just taken them by surprise. Of course George was the main reason he said that. He had decided to nominate George, and he wanted to soften the blow. |
Rmgreco | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 08:22 am  My favorite moments are any with him and Pugita, shows his tender/silly side. I love when he comforts anyone. It shows the immense compassion he hides under that rough exterior. Especially when he comforted Brit so tenderly. I also love his quotes. Like when he told the dog "Don't write Checks your a$$ can't cash"! And when he was telling Karma to kiss his a$$! GO EDDIE!! |
Sylvia | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 08:35 am  For me there are so many moments I'll treasure of Eddie but right now it is last night. Cass was ending her visit and at the RR door, she gave hugs to each but when she got to Eddie she threw both arms around his neck, gave and got a kiss, and squeezed him hard! It just seemed obvious that she really has a tender spot for this diamond in the rough! |
Enb | Sunday, September 24, 2000 - 08:43 am  This topic is completely redundant. Please see 'A good Eddie Quote' or 'Eddie Love Thread' in 'General-Favorites' This topic is also full of flamebait and spam, I'm sorry to close it. Please post in the above mentioned threads. |
