Hey all! Since I'm going to the Kansas City shows in about 5 weeks, I was brainstorming ideas for fun, easy little projects to put together and give to David and Andrew.

David, if you're lurking, don't read this thread!

WORD NERDS' FAVORITE WORDS PROJECT

For David, I thought it would be a cute idea for everyone to find one cool word. Any word. Just not something boring like...'the'. It can be a word that's always been your favorite, or something random you find while flipping to a random page in the dictionary. Once you select that word, post it along with the definition from dictionary.com, and come up with a sentence that pertains to David (or another contestant, Idol, whatever you'd like...something that would make him smile).

If you've heard him say the word, it might not be a good idea to choose it, either, since he likely already knows it. There are plenty of words in the dictionary to choose from after all.

Along with this, post your name and where you're from, and I'll compile everyones' creative words, definitions, and sentences into a booklet and give it to him! Us and David will surely learn some new things and have fun with this project.

FAN LETTERS FOR ANDREW PROJECT

This part is pretty straight forward - everyone can write a letter to Andrew. It doesn't have to be a novel; it can be as short or long as you'd like (within reason). Write about how you are wishing good luck to Andrew in his music career, or anything you want. Those are just suggestions.

Again, I'll include your name and where you're from, combine the letters into a booklet, and deliver them to the other Cook brothers (or if I don't see them for some reason, I'll give them to someone who can give the stuff to them).

Have fun with this, and feel free to either post or PM your contributions by August 26th!

(And feel free to move this topic if it's in the wrong place...)

Love the words project idea, think he would love it. Here is my contribution.

Malodorous-having a foul odor.

[Jess]

^ Hahaha, he'll laugh at that one.

[elizabethrosalyn]

This is an awesome idea, Jess! I'll start with Part 1 (David's Dictionary) first and come back later for Part 2 (Andrew letter).

Puerile \PYOOR-uhl\, adjective:
Displaying or suggesting a lack of maturity; juvenile; childish.
“That Michael Johns is one puerile guy!”

[cookieismybaby]

okay i wanna contribute my favorite word of all time: shenanigans!
DEFINITION:
1. Usually, shenanigans.
a. mischief; prankishness: Halloween shenanigans.
b. deceit; trickery.
2. a mischievous or deceitful trick, practice, etc.
SENTENCE:
I bet David has pulled all kinds of shenanigans on the other guys on the bus!
okay, there's my attempt at a good sentence.

As for the letter to Andrew, here is mine:

Andrew:
I just wanted to say thank you for making David try out. It's all your fault, and I've never been so happy to blame someone for something in my life! I can't imagine this American Idol season without him. I'm glad he finally gets to share his amazing talent with the world! Speaking of talent, I know you can sing too! You're totally awesome!! I hope to see you on American Idol next year. You definitely have my support! Hopefully you will continue playing in the Kansas City area so I can come see you sometime! Keep rockin!
Much love,

I LOVE this idea too. Here is my contribution to the David Fan dictionary:

The word is behoove (my favorite)

Function: verb
Inflected Form(s): be·hooved; be·hoov·ing
Etymology: Middle English behoven, from Old English behōfian, from behōf
Date: before 12th century
transitive verb
: to be necessary, proper, or advantageous for <it behooves us to go>


It would behoove everyone on the planet, heck the universe, to enjoy David's wonderful artistry.

This is an awesome idea! I love it!

flib·ber·ti·gib·bet

flighty person: somebody who is regarded as silly, irresponsible, or scatterbrained, especially one who chatters or gossips

David, if I meet you I may appear to be a flibbertigibbet, but that is probably just due to nerves!

Wanted to bump this thread. Read through the whole thread everyone it's FUN.

[DC for PS]

FOR DAVID:

eminent - high standing among one's contemporaries, especially in one's own profession/craft

"David Cook is truly an eminent musician with genuine effort and dedication to his work i.e writing, recording & performing"

FOR ANDREW:

You are a fantastic human being.....depicting the importance of family values to the whole wide world! You have been an amazing example/role model to alot of people out there for being so gracious yet fun and loving at the same time.

Andrew....we wish you all the best in American Idol. Do not give up....remember to give your brother a run for his money! Hahaha...have fun doing what you like. We have yet to listen to you sing!

I'm in.....

TRUTHINESS

Truthiness- The quality of stating concepts one wishes or believes to be true, rather than the facts.

David's truthiness about his inability to ask a woman on a date is very hard to believe.

Dearest Cook boys:
I love each of you as if I've known you my whole life and I hope to meet each of you some day soon! Wishing you ALL the luck in the world! XOXOXOX

Great idea!

David's Word Dictionary:

Cruciverbalist: Lover of crossword Puzzles.
David Cook is my favorite Cruciverbalist! (Isn't that perfect)!!!!!

Andrew: Good luck with your future plans, whether you audition for American Idol or not. I wish only the best for you. Thanks for sharing your brother with the world. We love him!

I hope this is good enough. Thanks for doing this.

[tulsa01]

Already contributed to the word project.

Here is my note to Andrew:

To Andrew
Hey, Andrew, come on over to Tulsa. We can love you here like we did David!!


Victoria

[indi28]

Ok, David here's my word for you:
Canorous melodious or musical

David Cook has an abundance of canorous talent.

For Andrew, Go for it! Whatever your dreams are you have shown the world what a wonderful brother and family can do for people. I'm sure your parents are so proud of all of you. We're so glad that "it's all your fault"


Lindi Maichrye Cleveland, Ohio See you in September!

[Jess]

Thanks so much you guys! All the words are great so far!

[PaulaDC]

Hello. I want to be included in that "David's Dictionary". I'm an international fan and English isn't my mother tongue language. Could I write a word in Spanish with its definition and sentence in both languages? Is it possible?
I think that it would make a difference and would be something original.
Thanks in advance
Regards
