You blushed Hugs, so I'll blush too as I think she is an incredible person and although I do not "watch TV" all that often, do watch the Oprah Show probably a couple of times a month.

I was wondering when you said you would be going to see the Show in Chicago if you had already booked the tickets. Is there a waiting list? Do they vet the audience? Do you know beforehand what the subject of the day will be or is it potluck?

Unlike many of those talk show hosts Oprah always gives the impression, and I am sure she does, that she really cares. She is one amazing human being and I respect her enormously.

I would love to see one of her Shows. If it is just something you are thinking of doing, do it PLEASE, I can't wait to hear how it goes :) Hilary

Hil, first off, did you see Barbra Streisand on Oprah recently? It was yesterday's show here in the states. It was such a gorgeous day, I decided to leave in time to go watch it. It was REALLY good!! I thought of Hugs, as I *believe* she's a Barbra fan.

Second...I have a friend who was on the show a year or two ago. Can't remember how she got the *tickets*, but she DID know she was going to be in the audience before she left Birmingham....I think:)

This doesn't have anything to do with Oprah, but, talking about being in the audience for those talk shows.....Mike's son is in California and is trying to get into acting and he is doing this thing where if an audience is not completely booked....then he gets PAID to go sit in the audience and clap and act interested!!!!!

{{{Hugs}}}
It's ok, Hugs, she'll be on some show again I bet. :)
Or maybe they'll show a Behind the scenes Oprah for it. :)
That would have been quite a combo Oprah and Barbra.
I missed Clay Atkins on some show too. :(

I don't believe I said any of the above Hilary ..

**Hugs, you did not say any of those things. I just thought (don't think right!) that you would be going in the future, and was just hoping that considering you said you hoped to go and see the show that you knew a little of what happens when you actually do book for such an experience or if anyone else had actually been to one of those kind of shows.

>>sorry

**Me too Hugs, I just thought it would be something "interesting" to talk about! Obviously not.

>>Not sure where you got the rest of your information

**I don't "get my information" from anywhere or anyone Hugs except the Board. I was just shooting the breeze. Hilary
