OLYMPIC WINNER ROSEY FLETCHER!!!
I just wanted to say that because about ten or eleven years ago, she found a letter that I wrote to Bono and she promised me that she would get ahold of Bono and give him my letter, if she ever became famous for her snowboarding or won the Olympic medal. Well... she won BRONZE...yep that girl from Girdwood, Alaska.
It's a proud moment for all of her friends here, and for Alaska.
And for me too! Finally I know someone famous that can get past Bono's security!
xtal said:Oh hmmph. I'm not as articulate as I'd like to be. I meant that the girls are in the front area as to where not like middle or back area of the GA section- where I usually find myself. I didn't necessarily mean the inside of the ellipse...because I find that at the shows I've been to this year when he goes searching for a dance-mate he went to the outer rim, outside of the ellipse, and chose a girl within the first 3 rows, and maybe I am mistaken- most of them seemed to be on someone's shoulders? Well at the shows I was at anyway.
Stand out in some way... I was sitting on the side seated section in Las Vegas and when Bono finished singing "40" he looked at my area- WHERE DANIEL LANOIS was sitting and everyone in those 2 rows left except me...and I was waving and he looked directly at me and waved.
Hopefully my luck will change and I am that girl in the first 3 rows on someone shoulders and won't let go...and that girl that will stand out. Thanks Lies. You're giving me some hope here.

On my way up stage (you can see me on the bottom corner)
xtal said:FLAV: Oh yeah, did Bono remember you? You would certainly stick out in my mind.
What a silly question, but I can't help to ask.
Lies: Thank you for the information. I really really need and appreciate all the heads up that I can get. I have never brought a sign, never wore a teeshirt that stuck out in some way, never was on someone's shoulders, etc.
I have always wanted to go up there, and the two times I was in the GA section, albeit I was right up front, and Bono noticed me, I was too shy and/or scared to even TRY. Call me a teeny weeny whimp. Hehe.
But now I know to go about an hour or two before the show starts and wait in line, I want to be in those first two rows! And I'm so tiny maybe I should invest in some shoes that add about 3 inches, to make me 5'3".
xtal said:I agree ^.
I told ya I'm too much of a whimp even if he did call me on stage. I'd probably faint and there goes my chance. HAHA.
BTW, how was Bono mocking you?

When I met him in 2002, it was so cold (we'd slept outside and it was below freezing) and he took one look at me in all my outdoor gear (I'm sure all that was visible were my eyes) and jokingly said, "look at YOU!" and kind of laughed. But to make up for it, he shook my hand and then made some comment about how cold it felt, so he grabbed both of my hands and held them.
Now whenever my friends see me, they point and yell "look at YOU!"
