Morning everyone. Rachel- sorry to hear about you parting ways with your husband. Glad to see you are at peace. I don’t know much about dogs, as I had my share of cats growing up., But, I do know that Fozzy is an adorable puppy! I wonder if Danny will have to have a caregiver for the puppy, since he was not home much last year. Well, off to work, have a good Tuesday all.
Twitter: .
Morning
Hi Paula . Yep Fozzy is going to be
Ok danny a pass yesterday and a name for the puppy, now get us a single name.
Twitter: jannworth
I’m with you Danip–Danny , fork over the single’s announcement! The ihearties are primed and ready.
Twitter: jannworth
And, Erika, I love Fozzy’s page. And Danny, keep the videos coming of Fozzy. I just hope it doesn’t get Ed thinking about another puppy. We have Lucy the lab and Connie the coon hound already!
Loving the new little puppy Fozzie but I’m with Danip, a little news on the single would be nice. Jan, Danny’s new puppy has me thinking about another one but I already have Timmy the standard poodle.
Have a great day all
Twitter: steph6449
News on the single would be nice. Maybe while in Nashville last week and this week, Danny has been busy recording. Could that be why he wasn’t able to watch the Grammy’s live
Twitter: steph6449
Erika and I were thinking last night that Fozzy may need some playmates to keep him company.
If any ihearties (lurkers, too!) would like to send us a pet photo, we’re thinking we could make a little gallery of friends for Fozzy

Even
or
if appropriate

Email photo to [email protected] with name of Fozzy’s new friend.
Fozzy is so adorable. He has such a sweet face and I think it is so cute that he has his own little page.
Morning Paula ,Danip.jan.Lizzy and Steph.
Thank you josie, tony, pam, and jan for your permission to post your recaps.One fan has translated tony’s recap and I am working on josie’s.MrBing said he will work on pam and jan’s when he has connection to Internet. BBL
Steph.What a cute idea.
Twitter: tonicny
Love the idea of iheartFozzy page and the last video with the dog whisperer was so cure as Danny’s voice was like that of a loving parent Fozzy must be great active company. Steph I love your idea of Fozzy needing friends is it OK to also write a little something about the pet and not just submit a picture only
Twitter: BLfolsom
Good morning all. Rachel, so sorry to hear about your news, but I am happy that you are at peace with the decision.
Just droppng by before I have to start getting ready for work, will see you later tonight.
Morning everyone !!! AAAHHH Erika you gave Fozzy a page. You are so sweet. I hope Danny sees that. And Fozzy is on the rolling pictures. We really LOVE Danny
I read some of the comments from last night (yes my computer at home is sick ARRGG) and I think Fozzy hash some Shepard in him. But that is just me. I bet if Pam could see him in person she could tell right away. Love Steph idea about getting our pet pictures together. My daughters and family will tell you that I have two passions in my life my dogs (I have 3) and Danny Gokey. So I am not going to start on my dogs cuz I would be here all day. Well better get back to work (yuck) did not win the lottery yet so I should make some money to buy puppy food. Everyone have a great day 
has not hash (should read before I post)
Jan you have Lucy !!!! I have Lucy the beagle. She is my LuLu bug.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Ha?? kathy(milw), what’s a LuLu bug????
Twitter: VickieCarol
Hey Ihearts,
Cute idea with the Fozzy twitter account. I wonder if Danny knows about his furry friends twitter page.
Rachel, I hope your transition is an easy one. The cruise videos, pics and recaps will put a smile on your face. I hope you get your Danny hug on Saturday too.
Hi Lulu, I think Kathy meant “Lulu” as a cute nick name for Lucy her dog. Not sure about the “bug” but it seems to be part of the nick name.
Twitter: pjgvet
Lulu, I think that is Kathy’s nickname or term of endearment for her dog. We will often attach the word “bug” to a nickname for a child, baby or pet as a term of affection. English is so strange isn’t it? Who would think a “bug” would be cute?
Rach, I’m sorry to hear that, I know it seemed like you had stress. I’m glad you are coming to terms with it.
I sent my animal pics in! I looked for Chip & Dale, even though I didn’t see a rat in your pics STeph- couldn’t find any rat ones though, lol. But I think Fozzy would just as soon use a rat as a squeeky toy and not play with it!
Twitter: VickieCarol
Hi Pam,
You are always so good at explaining things.
I’d love to have your knack for writing and expressing myself.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Thanks for the explanation Vickie and Pam! I thought there was some special meaning with my name…
Twitter: pjgvet
VC, you must have an evil twin locked up somewhere in your closet (maybe I can share Jan with you) cuz you are always so sweet here to everyone
2011 is your year! We have to get you to see Danny in concert and meet him. Or alternatively, save up for that cruise so we can all meet you…………
Lulu, your name is so cute, there are a lot of pets with it, and it is a common nickname for those named Lucy and Louise and even Laura at times.
lulu.I never know it can be a pet’s name.That explains the rabbit thing.
I am so sorry Lulu. I have nick names for all of my pups. Lucy loves it when I call her Lulu bug or buggy and sometimes she is Lucy Lu. When I call her by Lucy it is usually to give her a command but when she is being loveable and cute I talk to her by using her nick name. She loves it. I love the name Lulu. And my Mom always told my kids when they were babies that they were as cute as a bug. I know bugs being cute just doesn’t sound right. Thanks Pam for getting me out of trouble here.
Steph you have a pet rat. I heard that they do make great pets. We had an Iguana and my daughter has pictures somewhere with Yoshi sitting on my head with his long tail hanging down. Never thought I could love an Iguana but I did.
from Youtube: movie clip of Tangled with Danny singing Hero:
MBD, Amazon:
#2769 –today
(#5628–last night; #6634–two days ago)
Twitter: pjgvet
I liked that Lurker.
I also finally got around to watching Karri’s video for Soul Surfer. It was great as usual! Movie looks interesting, I love Helen Hunt. Although I have to say the one clip I saw of Carrie’s acting in it was ~so so.
I’ll repost the link since I think it was buried in the dust of other news that day.
She gives a plug for DGO and iheart at the end
Twitter: pjgvet
Hmm, interesting Lurker- Grammy effect, even though Danny wasn’t mentioned or featured?
Hi, Pam,
I saw Tangled. I liked it. I also liked The King’s Speech.
Pam,
I think the Amazon increase is because of the Opry appearance. (The Opry appearance is the reason I checked.)
Tourists visit the Opry. Some may be impressed enough to remember Danny and look up his music. The increase is not as quickly seen as an increase from Idol. With Idol, people are probably at home watching. If they want to buy online, they can do it right away.
With tourists at the Opry (and at other concerts), I think they get back home and settled; then some may remember Danny and buy.
Twitter: VickieCarol
Pam,
Thanks for posting the video of Danny’s Hero, Lurker. ‘ToothlessMI’ used Danny’s performance song instead of the studio version. Nice with all of the applause in the background.
That makes sense about the increase coming from the Opry. It seemed they had a full house that night. OR…. the increase could be the “Fozzy” effect.
I’m not on twitter. (I read tweets, but I don’t tweet.) During the talk after the Super Bowl NA, I kept wishing someone would tweet Aaron Rodgers a link to Danny’s rodeo NA with the tweet “This is the way the NA should be done.”

In my wish, of course, Aaron would retweet that tweet, and Danny’s NA could be heard by more people.
Hasn’t happened yet.
I keep wishing for recognition of how well Danny sings The NA. Maybe someday.
Twitter: pjgvet
Lurker I would be happy to do it but the link is too long. Can anyone compress it to a shorter one?
http://www.cmt.com/videos/misc/607278/posted-danny-gokey-sings-the-star-spangled-banner.jhtml#fbid=AeN8eCxurhJ
Thanks, Pam,
I don’t know how to compress the link. Would the link and words “Great NA” be too long? The link itself has Danny’s name in it.
Twitter: Owlki
Compressed link: http://ow.ly/3X44X
Twitter: pjgvet
Thanks Erika
I’ll do it tonight when there is greater twitter traffic; or the next time I catch Aaron tweeting.
Twitter: jevjos
Rachel I hope things go as easy for you as they can go as you go though this. Sending prayers your way.
Hard to believe March is almost here already and our waiting period should be over soon-our definition of soon not his about the name.
Is that Fozzy in this picture?
http://twitpic.com/4079jw
Twitter: hopeandfaith_13
Yeah I think that’s Fozzy. What a cutie.
Twitter: steph6449
Toni, yes, there is room for a few words to go with your pet photo(s) for our Friends for Fozzy gallery.
Sneaking a peek at Erika’s draft page, we’ve received some adorable pictures already
Although I see Erika hasn’t given us a photo of Nina yet, hmm. I think we need one, don’t you all?
Twitter: steph6449
Not sure what the “heads up” is in reference to, but interesting he sent a song to Danny. I wonder if they have a call out for songs for Danny’s new album, in addition to Danny’s co-writing. Most likely there will be a mix of songs he was involved with writing, and some he didn’t.
Twitter: steph6449
Lol. Just saw the video Danny tweeted.
Maybe we need to request “supervised play” for any of our pets to be playmates for Fozzy. He seems, err, quite precocious
.
For anyone who still had a question on this, Danny’s official FB confirming about that bogus Ft. Lauderdale date in some of the online ticket reseller sites. (Probably by mistake as he had a date booked last year on the same day which was cancelled.)
Twitter: Owlki
hahaha, Steph, that video is funny. Funnier that he was, err… “hitting”… the stuffed dog’s head at first. lol… and Danny’s shock when he realized what Fozzy was doing!
Keep the pet pics coming, peeps. It’s turning into a pretty aww inducing page. I have to take a pic of Nina to put on the page… all the ones that we have are old photos on paper, nothing digital. My parents stuck to old school photography when Nina was growing up. lol.
Night night, peeps!
new pictures of fozzy,I guess he is the one we can focus on before Danny’s new single.
Twitter: pjgvet
Ok, can I withdraw permission for my beloved pets to “play” with Fozzy

Is he going to be the bad boy of the neighborhood?
Actually, that behavior is pretty normal in young puppies.
Twitter: pjgvet
Steph, do you know that Mike Wise?
Pam what’s your pets?
Twitter: pjgvet
Right now just two cats XL Gokey. We will probably get a dog this spring though. My last dog died about 2 years ago and we just have been too busy to get another- dogs require so much more commitment than cats do.
Twitter: steph6449
Pam, nope. Seemed to me from his twitter he was more of an aspiring songwriter than someone established, but only briefly looked at it. The person he was tweeting to, we have seen before, Someone here knows her or spoke to her, possibly?
I just thought it was interesting if it was any hint that RCA is looking for songs, as well as supporting Danny in his songwriting efforts. Nothing surprising probably, but we need some kind of little tiny teeny weeny musical hint to chew on for the new album
Twitter: .
Pam this is me although it’s been 5 1/2 years. I feel so guilty after 25 years of having a dog that I am enjoying the fredoom. That said there is definitely another dog in the future, just what kind seems to be the hang up. Not much for the little dogs and a large dog (been there, done that) so it will probably be another cattle dog type
Twitter: JosieInSeattle
Hey peeps! What a great idea to have a gallery of Fozzy’s Friends, I love that! I will find a good pic of my pups to send.
Rachel, I saw your news and I’m wishing you well. I’m sure that’s a tough thing to go through but I hope that life is easier soon.
Twitter: steph6449
Thanks for all the pet photos, keep ‘em coming
Fozzy will have some very good-looking friends
Not that he may totally deserve them yet, he seems like quite the scamp 
For Danip or anyone else, feel free to send one of a past pet friend if you don’t have one currently with you. I had my previous dog close to 20 years, Lily’s just a babe in comparison at eight now.
Twitter: pjgvet
Danip, that is the situation with me too; I wound up being the sole care taker, exerciser of our dog. My daughter is pleading, promising she will walk the dog, but you know how that will go
We are thinking smaller this time; 20-40#. I”ve always had big dogs so may try the smaller size.
Cattle dogs have a lot of energy, you must be gearing up
Steph, I wonder if they put out an ad for songs.similar to one I saw for CJ (someone listed in in his TWOP thread). I have seen people quote those ads for similar AI artists.
I would think they want a mix of co writes (who knows how many Danny songs will make the album?) and songs by professional writers.
Twitter: LuluGokey
Aww kathy(milw) don’t feel bad, I was just curious/surprised/wondering/confused (not sure which word is right…)
Twitter: jannworth
Pam, just remember that daughter will be out the door very soon and a pet (hopefully) will last a long time. So don’t give in on the pet unless you want one. Don’t do what I did. And sometimes they are not nice pets—->my daughter’s cat Micka. She hates all other cats, dogs and almost all people. She likes Ed, though.
I do hope Danny and the label gets that darn single out soon. If back when IWNSGB disappeared from the charts, you told me that mid-February we still wouldn’t know about the next single, I would have been horrified. (At least we got TN Christmas to keep us warm for awhile.) And the cruise news really does help. Danip, we need you add a little pressure to Danny.
I find it funny that Lee’s fans are expecting another single to be released right away. Really? I think not…but as we all know, I could be wrong on that too.
Twitter: BLfolsom
I wish I knew how to send in my photos of our dogs. I know it’s probably pretty easy, but I don’t know how to do it to save my life.
What’s happened to kathy(phila)?
Twitter: BLfolsom
Oh my
that twitter video…I didn’t expect that.
Twitter: steph6449
Just posted a new YT video from Sophia’s Heart. It seems to me to be the same one (??) that they played on the cruise, but maybe others will have a better idea on that.
.
For Billie, do you have the photos on your computer somewhere you can find them?
Twitter: BLfolsom
VC, haven’t you seen Danny yet in concert? I bet this will be your year
Twitter: BLfolsom
Hi Steph, I have them on my phone. Just haven’t figured out all this tech stuff.
Twitter: steph6449
Aww, Danny tweeted a link to our post with the SH Compassion Nashville video.
Twitter: BLfolsom
Good night all, time for bed

Twitter: pjgvet
I saw that Steph
He appreciates our support and your and Erika’s work on SH behalf.
I think that is the same video they showed on the cruise. Wonder if he will play it before concerts? Or after?
Thank you to whoever just donated. And to all who support SH through word of mouth, volunteering and $$, large or small
Good Night all
Twitter: gokeygroupie
Thanks everyone for all the sweet comments. I appreciate it!
Definitely not an easy time, but as a very wise man once said (or sang rather lol)….”On the other side of this..I know that my heart will live”
Night all
