I'm so excited

[idgiehkt]

Tonight there is a live chat with Emanuel Sandhu in one of the figure skating message boards. I get to be electronically connected with the great Emanuel (the figure skater). Wow. I'll probably be too nervous to even ask a question. We can't ask anything personal or untoward, but just to be breathting the same electrons...lol.

1. And I just can't hide it!

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!

2. lol

i'll lose control later, I'm sure. I am such a fan, it's pitiful.

3. I have to say, when I saw that subject line on the main page

I thought the EXACT same thing, which caused me to click on this thread, tapping my foot in anticipation!!

That tune beats the hell out of DISCO DUCK, anyway!

4. He is a beauty!

6. you guys won't BELIEVE what I chatted with Eman about!

wait for it....










THEORETICAL PHYSICS! No lie! That was my question that he answered. There were about 50 other people in the chat room, It was so great, he stayed an extra half hour. He said he was going to change his hair, and I asked him if he cut it could I have it...he just lol'd.

Anyway, he says that's what he wants to study. He also wants to design roller coasters. I asked him if he had read "A Brief History of Time" because he mentioned Hawking, and he said no, not yet. I'm in heaven. Sorry if this isn't serious enough. And he does NOT consider himself a diva, and yes, he is still a Madonna fan. Okay, enough. I'll go swoon elsewhere...

7. A roller coaster designing figure skater? ROFLMAO....

Hey, as Willy Lomax said in Death Of A Salesman, "A man's gotta have a dream."

Glad you got to hang out with your idol, whoever he is. I take it he's the next big thing in figure skating?

8. he's Canadian

he's very talented, but he chokes badly in competitons.

he's either on, or very, very off.

so time will tell.

he was 'the next big thing' in figure skating when he was 17. He qualified to go to the Olys in '98 but they left him behind...no reason given, but rumors of discrimination of course. Now he's 25 and can come in either 1st or 15th depending on where his mind is. But he has more natural talent than anyone in the field, much more than Plushenko, who is just a machine. Anyway, enough skating talk...

9. How fun for you!

It sounds like you've had a great connection. Hope you didn't take offense at my brain-dumping a music memory at you.

10. not at all.

It was an appropriate theme for that adventure, I've never done anything like that before...it was alot of fun.

Emanuel is going to be a guest of honor at the 20th Anniversary Fashion Cares Benefit for AIDS, a fundraiser
