That I am going to lose track of our David. It hadn't hit me until just now as I get a free minute to visit the site and I am listening to the studio version of "Time of My Life" and all I can do is cry. See I am a busy mom with a 5 and 2yr old, not to mention I have an in-home daycare and watch 5 other kids. So I am so scared that with him not being on TV every week and just out there where he's easy for me to find I am going to get lost in the shuffle somewhere. I all of a sudden feel once again like that damn crying Sanjaya girl as I sit here bawling. I have one huge favor to ask from all of you, not that you will change what you are doing now which is fabulous. As time goes on would you please please please continue to post any and all news articles, news interviews (written and video) and any other type of media you find? I just don't want to lose him now that it's all over and he is going to be going out "on his own" so to speak. Thank you all for being such a fabulous group of people and I look forward to visiting this site as regularly as I can, at least one or twice a day to get updates. It has been a wonderful ride to take with all of you and I am so glad the ride ended on the note we were all hoping for. To you David Cook, you are the greatest man in so many ways. Hey at least now without him on TV maybe my "crush" will wane a bit so I won't sound like a crazy David Cook stalker (not likely but my husband can hope.)

Honey, let me say that you are not alone in this fear.
It is something that has been lurking in the back of my mind for a couple of weeks now.
I just found David and I don't want to lose him. I hope that doesn't sound stalkerish because I don't mean it that way. I meant, as his fan, I want to know what he is up to professionally. I think we've all come to think of him as a friend.. it is a gift he has.. he is so open and so honest.. it's hard not to feel a connection to him because he's been a part of our lives for several months now and to go from seeing him twice a week to not at all on tv is going to be a huge adjustment. I guess we'll just all be here for each other and help each other through.. it's been an amazing ride with him! I just pray he knows how much we love him!

I feel the same way too. I am praying everyday for David Cook and his family. I know that David Cook appreciates all of us word nerds. Word Nerds stick together in times like these. Please do not worry we will see David Cook on talkshows and on the idols tour this summer. I love David Cook more than ever now, and I will not stop loving David Cook since idol is over. Christina

Well said Rhoda!!!

We're all in this together!

For now, at least we have a whole week of appearances and performances to watch on TV. Then, we've got the tour starting at the very start of July. June may seem kind of dreary, but we will have no lack of pictures or info from July-September! I'm so grateful for this site and all of the friends that I have made from being a member here. *group hug*

Just remember that, while the hectic pace of seeing him so often on TV will slow down, we have so much to look forward to. The AI tour is just around the corner. We can share our ideas about each show....maybe have cellcerts so that we can all listen in. We can look forward to the release of his first CD since winning and, of course, TV appearances to promote it and also touring. While it will seem different not having him on each week, it can still be wonderful. We will all get to know each other better and continue supporting David in doing what he wants to do. It's all good.

While I'm going to miss seeing him twice a week on AI, we definitely have so much to look forward to. We all have to stick together, continue to support David and follow him in his career. Definitely will keep up to date on what he's doing.

I agree that we do have so much to look forward to with David.
The AI tour.
His album.
His concerts.
His future as an artist.
I'm thankful that we get to witness this. It's just hard to go from seeing him every week to not seeing him at all. I will worry myself sick over him because that is what I do when I care about someone! I don't think if I had a decade to try to explain to David how amazing we all think he is that I could do it. There just isn't a word for the feelings he evokes within me!!

Rhoda, you said everything I am thinking and feeling. You just word it all so much better. Thank you.

We'll call it the David-Cook.Org Pledge:

I pledge to keep all my friends on this website informed.

Additions?

Me too! Christina

*sigh* i will also miss him, i won't be able to see
him in TV(well at least where i live) except if he gets covered by
our national tv programs....
(even though im just 16(not busy with anything..haha) and can surf the net like..EVERYDAY... )
.....still the net is my only updated source about him....><

EdiT...and last night i even felt like crying listening to his songs.....YYYY????><*hits head on wall*

Does this site stay up? and for how long? I will miss it if it goes away.
Tell me it stays

I've signed up for the Google alerts so that I can get the emails on the latest info of articles and such and so that will help me and us keep track of David that way. This is not the end, it's only the beginning.

I feel the same way about Jason and David. But, I think this site will keep us updated as much as it possibly can~!

i am new here, but i don't want to lose this giddiness over david!! i tried to keep a low profile with it, not let hubby know, i was so infatuated, but i don't know what it is...he just makes me smile and his voice just touches a place in my heart.
