And doing it [del]for[/del] I mean _to_ the SDMB; do you expect that will be a part of your career arc? This place _is_ somewhat rocky ground upon which to be sowing your seed, no?

I don’t really know anything about James Otto, but I’m sure of one thing after reading Sweet Heart’s various posts:

I have absolutely zero interest in ever listening to any of his music, if this is what his fans are like. The idea holds no appeal for me whatsoever. Congrats, J O S H, you’ve driven one more person away from Potential James Otto fandom.

This woman needs a psych ward without bibles and country music. So I guess TN is out of the question. China perhaps??

I don’t know, I think she might benefit from a good old fashioned exorcism.

James Otto: Hello, Holly. I’d like to help you.  
Holly: I’m not Holly.  
James Otto: I see. I’m James Otto.  
Holly: I’m the devil. Now kindly undo these straps!

If I replace “God bless you/him/her/them always” with “[brought to you by Carl’s Jr](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-tRPhxm41I).” it makes things clearer. Maybe she’s trying to rack up enough credit to add onto her celestial mansion by including this phrase in every single post.

“I’m the Secretary of State. [del]God bless you always[/del] Brought to you by Carl’s Jr.”  
“Why do you keep saying that?”  
“'Cause they pay me every time I do. It’s a really good way to make money.”

At one point during his performance of “Where Angels Hang Around”, the expressions on his face couldn’t have been more sorrowful looking, I just wanted to put my arms around him.

God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. I just went to his CMT videos page and found that them 330 performance clips are not up there anymore! I wish that the powers that be would put them back up. They are what helped me get to know the male that I have been so crazy about ever since then! (sad)"  
😕 “the male”? Who talks like that in real life? And your use of the word “them” is so utterly incorrect, it’s becoming a parody of how Southerners talk. It isn’t “them” clips, it’s “those” or “the”.

Oh well, that is your choice…and your loss, not his.

God bless you and James always!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

JOSH, I hope you realize, at some level, that you are not helping spread the work of James Otto, right? Before your posting on this forum, I had never heard of JO, so I guess, now that I have, you think that’s some level of success. But the fact is that now I have, unfairly, a negative impression of him and those who follow him. All because of how you have presented yourself. Sure, you can come back with a snappy remark that it’s my loss, not his.

But that’s not really how this works. He wants/needs fans to buy his music/tickets/swag. If no one buys these items, James makes no money. With your over the top behavior, you are driving people AWAY from giving him a chance as an artist.

It seems she is a big LeAnn Rimes fan too…

[http://josweetheart.gather.com/](http://josweetheart.gather.com/)

What is interesting is that she has advice on how to use “info” against other people - very Christian of her :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: So apparently vengeance is not limited to God, but is also allowed for mere mortals as well…

Okay.

Anyone in this thread now a James Otto fan?

Anyone less likely to be a JO fan?

JOSH also lists ( in her profile ) that Alison Krauss, LeAnn Rimes, Tanya Tucker, Trace Adkins, Darryl Worley, Brad Paisley, Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, and Hal Ketchum are also her favorites. I hope the adulation and praise she heaps on them does not adversely affect their reputations.

oh, and :):):)🙂
