Thanks, Tabbyking. Went there, put my vote in & the % stayed the same. I truly like Ruben too, but must admit I do not plan to purchase his CD (just not my kind of music). However, I am the proud owner of 2 Clay CDs. 1 purchaced on line & the other bought b/cause I couldn't wait for the on line to arrive. Addiction - isn't it great! At least now our CLAY is someting positive to be addicted to. What a great influence he can & will be on today's youth (not to mention us older folks).

i adore ruben's personality, but he also does not sing what i consider to be my type of music. if i heard him on the radio, i would smile and enjoy that one song, but i could not listen to an entire cd. certainly nothing personal about ruben, though--he is a sweetie!
i almost bought a second clay cd because i was getting anxious for our amazon order! luckily, it arrived monday. my daughter plays it over and over for herself and our golden retriever. i swear the dog smiles in his sleep and his tail keeps the beat!

Are Rolling Stone magazines sold in grocery stores? Or do I need to go to a news stand? As you might guess, I've never bought a Rolling Stone, but I'll be searching the city tomorrow for one, or two, or ..... Our Clay is such a nice boy. He does us all proud.

Sorry to interrupt, but I need to get a message to Readonly and she does not have a folder so I'm stalking her in different threads.

Readonly, you need to pick a last place team for the TAR Deadpool. I plugged in Steve/Dave based on your other picks, but I would like you to verify this is correct.

Oh, I like Clay, too! :)

there's something about bob......2112, that i just love!

anyway, for readonly, i found the rolling stone magazine in our circle k. (your convenience-type store, i.e., 7-eleven). i told the gal i would be there first thing tomorrow to buy the new edition!
i had already searched our k-mart and wal-mart, although those stores in other towns may carry the rolling stone.

I got the Rolling Stone with Ozzy Osbourne's cover story at my local 7-11 convenience store.

You might also check Borders Books, Barnes & Noble bookstores..

Ok, I just read in my mothers tabloid that Kimberly Locke and Clay are an item. They're saying Ruben was the mastermind behind it and would think up ways to get them alone. They said that when the other contestants would dog Kim for being too serious about the competition, Clay would come to her rescue and defend her. They said that they're moving in together in LA.

I am sorry but I do not believe this one bit. I don't think Clay would move in with a girl he is "with." It seems to me he would think this was wrong somehow.I know they did talk about being roommates in LA. I bet they're getting one big laugh over this though. One week, they're calling him out on being gay, then next they have him shacking up with Kim!

Given I just read in another article that Clay doesnt believe in premarital sex and doesnt swear, I am guessing he is moving in to cook for her.

clay and kim both said in interviews when they were both still on AI they had planned to 'maybe' get a place together in los angeles after the summer, but as 'best friend' types... not romantic love. hooey, on that tabloid! slap yer mama silly for buying that cwap ;>)...but not until you finish reading it and letting us know the dirt on everyone else LOL

Been a very busy person tonight! I am waiting for a load of laundry to get dry. Put my CLAY cd in & am not even minding that my scheduled domestic crap has ran way past my estimated time allotment. Guess I might be here a while. Uh oh, got to go hit play again since there's only 2 songs. My home CD player won't do it auto.

Tabby, not only does my mother buy them but she makes us go out of our way to the ONE store in town who puts theirs out a day before the other stores. We'll get calls on our cell phone "don't forget to get my tabloids." She claims its only for the crossword puzzles.

She is a senior citizen now and she'll call me and tell me some "news" and I'll ask her where she read it- The Star- but she'll believe it and she even writes them letters. The things we do when we get older...

This is embarrasing to admit - but here goes: I actually subscribe to "Star" & "National Enguirer". It's really not my fault - My Grandma (my role model) used to only go to town on Friday - beauty shop, gro. store & any socializing. She always bought "Star" & "National Enguirer" @ the gro. store. Well, if Grandma liked it, it's ok by me. However, my copies are here, but won't get read until this wk-end. I barely have time to catch a breath - & now I have TVCH (which I must admit, has become very important for me - {you guys are THE BEST})!!

I'm still trying to track down a place to buy Rolling Stone. Barnes & Noble still hasn't unpacked all their boxes. What they have is the issue with Justin and Christina on the cover.

To find out the exact date on the cover, I went to the Rolling Stone website. Lo and behold! The issue is dated July 10 (!) and the website has lots of excerpts and photos. Just click on:

This is probably listed in one of the other threads but wanted to list it here as well. Billboards Q&A with Clay and Ruben. Also on that site take a gander at Chart Beat. And Monday on Billboardradio.com is an interview that will played (it's about an hour long w/ music interspersed in between) on demand.

Billboard Q&A

In other news Clay Aiken is #1 on the Canadian charts and Ruben is #2.

i found two copies at walgreens when i went to get my son's rx. that saved me a trip to the circle k, which i already knew carried rolling stone. so look at 7-eleven, walgreens, circle K...we have the 2 copies, so we can read one and put one away in plastic! my daughter has been reading the article non-stop, over and over...she told me why he hates house cats and i won't spoil it for you (take a hint, dear daughter! lol) but it's pretty funny.

I haven't been able to find it anywhere. I've looked in 2 drug stores, a Walmart and a 7-11. Guess I'll try B & N tomorrow.

If you are having trouble, I will give you some additional places to look. I was taking a class in a hotel yesterday and I stopped by the hotel store to buy some lottery tickets. In the newsstand in the hotel, they had a few copies. I asked the woman about it, she said hotels usually buy a few copies of each magazine for their customers.
With that in mind, check hospitals and, in metropolitan areas, some office building lobbies. I know these things from Beanie baby hunting days.

I found my copy at Blockbuster. They weren't in at the Barnes and Noble or Borders near me yet.

I went to the grocery store tonight and got the Clay cover Rolling Stone! There were several copies left. It is the biggest chain grocery store in the northeast but I'd be willing to bet its in other grocery stores also.

Music stores (as in instruments, like guitars) might be another good place.. Airports, too, but with today's security, not worth the effort.

You can probably call and order a copy from the publisher.

On my way home from work Friday evening, I stopped at a different Barnes & Noble which DID have the Clay RS. I bought 2, just to have a backup if I wore one out (manhandling, drooling, etc.) Yesterday was my "Clay Day" - listening to his music on the stereo, then playing videotapes of AI as I caressed ... er, read the RS magazine.

Since it looks like it will rain all day today, it would probably make sense to stay indoors and ... wallow with Claythings. Bills? Housework? Bah. Gotta feed the addiction.

I have seen it in every grocery store I've been in so far. Easy to find and great story inside.
