Bummer- i already had a house full of people planning on staying with me to. Just a practice run for the next REAL CONCERT! Have you moved to TX, Michele? If you did, was I one of the people who were planning on staying with you and you forgot to send me the invitation? (j/k) Now that he is for sure going to do the concert, if you're in town I hope you will take part in whatever plans are made for us. Darlin - YES I WILL BE THERE! thanks for inviting me So who is in charge of all of this ? Plans to make, flights to book, hotel reservations to make, fair tickets to be purchased, where are we all going to meet, what are we going to do, where are we going to eat, can we all get seats together to watch Jason? O My decisions and so many plans to make and so little time We need a cammander in charge here- who is willing to step up to the plate? Dalene is that you I see raising your hand in the background ;D

This makes me wanna run out and get a pig and a cow or something to raise and sell at the fair...or maybe I'll just bake a pie to enter in the pie contest. Anything to get there!! You could try to grow a huge zucchini or pumpkin! Or can something. Or make a quilt. Donna could submit her quilt! There are all kinds of possibilities! I decided I'm going to try to concoct one of those giant rice crispie treats we all know and love--BWAHAHAHA!!

Becky - so glad you got through to Annie! I called her last night, but didn't get through (probably too late). Oh my, spinal surgery - that sounds so very serious - glad she can make the trip. It will be so good to see our calm Annie again. daydreamingmeme from Copia is planning on going, too, maybe they could ride together again (oh reminds me of a song). Angels is looking into getting Fair/train tickets. That way we can just park our cars at the train station and be dropped off at the fair grounds (no security issues that way). She was a busy lady yesterday (going all over Rockwall/Hunt counties looking for phone books that don't exist can be quite tiresome). I'm sure she'll be able to post soon on what she has discovered. Also, Annie, if you are reading this, the Hilton told us in May that if we let them know who we are they'll put us on the level (oh I can't remember what its called) that we can just walk out of rooms and onto the plaza. The Hilton loves us (ha ha). Oh my, Michele you are coming too? It will be like College Station all over again (yippee). Now, if we could just convince Mz. Frieda to come (are you reading this?). Sorry for being so wordy - I'm just getting so excited.

When you call the Hilton, ask for rooms on the second floor, that way you can walk right out on to the terrace. Beautiful view of the harbor and the sunset.
The Hilton is great and very accommodating. Just remember when you are all there, that is where we will be staying again next May / June for the 2nd annual weekend of service. Let's all come back to Rockwall for that too, with the same enthusiasm we have for the show.
Have a glass of wine for me on that second floor terrace and toast Jason's new CD!

Largest rice crispie ever: On April 19, 2001 over 100 staff and students in Friley Hall kitchen at Iowa State University baked a Rice Krispie square. Eight hours, 818 pounds of Rice Krispies, 1,466 pounds of marshmallows and 217 pounds of butter later they had made the world's largest Rice Krispie square.
It was then loaded on a truck and weighed, the twelve feet long, six feet wide and two feet deep Rice Krispie square, or in this case, Rice Krispie rectangle weighed in at a delicious 2,480 pounds.
After the official weighing it was cut up and sold with the proceeds going to charity.
But we're not talking about a SQUARE, are we? LOL!! ;D ;D

RT @statefairoftx: @jasoncastro to be opening night act on Chevy Main Stage! 9/25 @ 8:30! FREE! this Tweet was sent 10:58am on August 10th from ATLANTIC.... this 10:48 PM August 10th on JCM JUST SAYINNN 12 hrs later and directly contradicting Atlantics tweet? Still confused? Jason Not Performing At Texas State Fair « Thread Started on Aug 10, 2009, 10:48pm » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JCM HQ was in touch with Atlantic today concerning the State Fair rumors that have been flying. Unfortunately, as of now, Jason is NOT performing at the Texas State Fair. If this changes, Atlantic has said that JCM will be the FIRST place to post about it. If you don't see the news at JCM, then it is not official. And going forward, we will be posting confirmed and official updates in this board so you can easily find them. Sorry for the disappointment. Thank you. How are we to rely??? When they contradict the label with a definate like NOT? I guess Jason saying he's playing at the Grove next week isn't official either...even tho it was his tweet? Sorry to beat a dead horse but I just found the tweet and it really irritates me!

Oh I'm not dissing JCM per se (it IS Jason's) just their method and terminology in disceminating information. What was said was tantamount to a lie. They didn't say it wasn't confirmed etc they said he was "NOT". When in fact 12 hrs earlier Atlantic tweeted that it WAS. Just sayin somebody neds to pull it together and chose their words with a little more care. Sloppy just sloppy and a bad reflection on Jason. This is crunch time for Jason and his fanbase with HuGe things happening. They have had a year to prepare and things haven't improved since all the miscommunication in Feb. I am glad that I only have to answer to ya'll (even tho the yellow names insist on lurking to see what I say bout em *waves*) oh so ya'll know when they startpopping up on the members list you know to start searching for info cuz they ar just here to see what our "buzz" is heh

Sorry JCM) I believe that they did in fact know that Jason was appearing and for some unknown reason didn't want it out until the "official" announcement. Like I said in my prior post, to say nothing would have been better than to say he is NOT appearing. Or to acknowledge the rumors and just say to wait for an official announcement. It just bothers me that they said he was NOT performing. Did they really not know? (that's bad) Or did they just want to be the ones to announce it? (that's bad too). Would love to know the reason for the flat out denial. Just hope that doesn't continue to happen. Jason himself has annouced that he's appearing at The Grove. I guess a fan has to follow on Twitter to know what's happening. JCM should be first with the news, IMO.

Aww Well now that I know again that he is really going to be there, I am working on planning a trip from Houston to Dallas. I will most likely be staying at a Marriot or with Family, with love to stay with everyone else. But I have free hotel points with the Marriot and Elite Status, sometimes I get upgraded to Pent house suite things. LAst time I was in Dallas we got a upgrade to something that looked like it belonged to Donald Trump!! Can't Beat that. And I also have family there.
I would however like to plan if possible to eat sometime maybe Saturday at my families Barbeques restraunt in Southlake, they have a party room and the best barbeque I have evereaten, and great homemade Peach Cobbler!! If I got to the Fair, I will take the kids to the Fair to do kiddie things and then let them watch the show. I am going to take the hubby again for navigation. He knows his way around Dallas,

I'm about to check into sometype of bus rental to see if people want to carpool from Houston. Not sure if that will work because there are alot of us!! My Van seats 7, I will haveroom for a extra 3 in the back bench seat but it will be tight, and this will leave less room for our bags and stuff. So Hmmm
