Can I be #44 Reinvented Cougar? I feel like my life is entering a new phase, once again. At least I know what my soundtrack will be.

You didn't say anything objectionable, as far as I'm concerned, but I get Dyann's point about the possibility of replies to the subject which might become that way, so it's good that she deleted it.



You got it. I've had the same feeling, it's a nice one, feel like I've kind of gotten bogged down the past couple of years.

I guess I should throw my 2 cents in since I'm definately a Cougar!
More like a Silver Fox! LMAO
I get so tired of people telling me "You're too old..." blah~blah~blah...

I refuse to become one of those crotchity old ladies who complains about everything and has no fun.
I love David Cook's voice... it makes my hair stand on end... AND he's definately easy on the eyes! LOL!
Hell, he give me goose bumps! *THUD*

I love Rock & Roll, Latin, blues, etc. and I like it LOUD. Most of my friends have gotten "OLD" on me, if you know what I mean. They don't know how to have fun any more.

It's nice to see I'm not alone!
GO COUGARS!

I know what you mean! I refuse to go gracefully into the age of indifference! Uh uh, not going! I like my music loud, proud and drawing a crowd!

Hi All:
I have to tell you - last week or so I turned to QVC briefly and there was a guest appearance from a well known hair stylist for the stars in California. The term "cougars" came up and he said that term is being used a lot lately; Referring to all of us "Cougars".

I love that quote! I think that describes a lot of us cougars!

No offense taken. Thanks for the clarification and I certainly understand. I've seen some of that other stuff and some of it was way over the top.

So, on to other subjects. First time I heard Cougars was on Housewives of O.C. I happened to catch it one day and this woman in her 40's (I guess) was dating a 21 year old. So I laughed when I saw the sign in the audience for D.C. and that's when I really got it. At 46 I am proud to be named the 'indubitable cougar.'

I think I really first paid attention to the term cougar when Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher hooked up...man, he IS a hottie, too!! LOL

I've actually almost always dated men older than me...one man was 16 years older! (My ex-husband was just 4 years older than me, but had the maturity of an 8 year old! LOL) I dated a guy that was 2 years younger than me, but that's as far as I have gone for the younger men...until now!

So...let me ask you all this:

What is it about David that makes him so appealing to older women?

For me, I guess it's his humility, his sweetness, his maturity level, his voice, his talent, his eyes, his lips, his hair, his face, his body, his hands, his arms, his shoulders, his bum, his cute tum-tum, his smile, his ears, his size 13 feet, his tats, his jewelry he wears, and the way he wears that scarf with his jeans--THUD! It's just an overall 'good guy' with a could-be bad rocker attitude, and an overall sexiness that smolders...

Other than that, I can't think of anything I find attractive about him...LMAO!!

I don't know...I just don't see it.

(Yeah right! It's EVERYthing you just said!! Helloooooooo!)

Hey is 56-D still available?? If so I would like to be Delirious Cougar

Hey, if #56-D isn't taken can I be Delectable Cougar?

I'll take #43-Q for Quintessential Cougar

Het Cougars, just Grandmajoyce checking in after the night shift. I got a People Magazine today and I got to tell you that boy is smokin'!!! (and I have children older than him)!!!!

I can't wait to see him in person!!

Love to all the Cougars,

Grandmajoyce

LMAO...I think you have it covered! Age is really a state of mind anyway. I'm sure we all have known men "our age" that are much less mature than David. He's an old soul in a smoldering hot young bod

I bought one today too-after I had read here yesterday he was in it. Very nice pics and interview-he is definatly smokin! I will see him in concert too-but I have to wait till the end of August so it may be a looooong summer

You got it.



Hi,

Quintessential is already taken, #17. It's a great word! How about quixotic? Quicksilver? Or you could go for a non-q word?



56-D is taken now. Do you want another letter, or shall I start a new alphabet set?

Hi everyone-
Got my People mag today! What great pictures! Interesting what DC said about age...that the age at which you carry yourself is what's important, not the number. Wow. I think I've been carrying myself around looking and feeling a lot older than my 54 years. Thanks to my new inspiration, I'm embarking on the Cookie Diet and Beauty Regimen: just spend all day thinking about David and you will eat less,smile more, and keep a sparkle in your eye! Anyone want to join???

Count me in!

Hi Jenney. Could you post an updated list? I definitely want to be part of the list! I am listening to Analog Heart as I type! Great way to spend my Saturday night!

Don't forget his intelligence!

Can you start a new alphabet round? I want B for Boots Wearing Cougar. Yup, I love to wear boots, just like David does. I have a fetish

41 here, with 3 kids, and I think DC is one hot tamale!!

I picked up the people mag yesterday, and glad I did. Even though I'd seen and read all of it, that picture of him leaning on the mirror is way better when you're holding it in your hands. It's like he's staring right at you. You almost expect him to say something. Like, 'I love you' maybe? LOL

I DID forget his intelliegence--thanks! I also forgot his excellent use of the English language, and I realized I forgot to mention his 'scruffage'--YUMMY! LOL

As for the People magazine, my copy has not left my night stand since I got it on Friday--even yesterday, while I was out at the grocery store, I was standing in the checkout line and saw it there. I got a big smile on my face, and the customer in front of me looked at me like, "What the HELL?'' Heehee...

I bought People Magazine yesterday for the first time in my life. My husband looked at me like I just walked off a spaceship. Hot pic. Great interview. Lost all credibility with my husband, but........what the hell! DC IS HOT!

Carole

People Magazine is the best of that type, IMHO. I've never picked up one of the others....until now!! I like People when my brain is too tired for heavy reading, but I want to read something! Sort of a non-caloric guilty pleasure!





Speaking of non-caloric guilty pleasures I'm in! My husband and I had been knocking off some pounds and getting in shape doing a lot of hiking in the mountains around here. Then we hit a spell where we were getting a wee bit lazy and those pounds were creeping back on. Now we're getting back to being healthy and fit again. It's a never-ending battle, but one worth fighting! Besides, I want to be one fit youthful looking cougar when I go to the AI concert!

Sandi

Hey Cougs,
Count me in on the happy cookie diet!

My husband is in the middle east and he comes home for a 14 day visit on Thursday -- 14 days without DC. The horror! (He's already been through this with me about another singer, so he knows the drill (tee hee, I said drill) but I think he needs my undivided attention for the next 14 days.

Don't do anything really fun (like capture DC and spirit him away for ...) until I get back!

Hi Lucy,

I just updated the list. I don't see your post where you requested a name and number, did I just miss it?

Anyone, if I've missed yours, let me know. Things a little crazy this weekend....

I'm in!! ...and I will also add the Cookie Exercise Plan. Listen to Cookie songs while you are working out and you will burn more calories and have more fun! I listen to him on my iPod while I'm on the treadmill and I cranked up the speed on that thing and was all hot an sweaty when I was done

Oh, I didn't request one, I thought I'd make sure I wasn't doubling-up on you. Thanks for taking the time to get that done and updated. Can I have 68--P = Passionate Cougar?

I'm 45 and from Portland, OR. Any other Oregonians out there?

I feel like I'm 13 again since discovering David Cook. I had posters of Starsky and Hutch and Andy Gibb on my bedroom walls as a teenager. Perhaps I can find one of Mr Cook. Kidding...

Technerd, where did you get your photo from? My failing eyesight can't tell, is he holding a cat or a tiny dog? I hate getting old.

I'm not technerd, but that is a puppy--Michael John's puppy, and I think the name is David Puddy (or something like that)...folks, correct me if I'm wrong on the name!

Here's a bigger pic of it:

As inspired as you. Already started a regimen, out at the park every morning, two miles, listening to nothing but DC, also on a "Cookie" diet, am 52 and was staring to feel old. I already dropped 4 lbs. Its very hard to overeat when thinking about him most of the day. Picked up peaple last night, loved the article. Can't wait to see him sing the National Anthem Tuesday night at the NBA game.

What an awesome idea! When another "s" comes up, I would love to be Screaming Cougar. If you still would like ideas for a collective name, how about Cookie's Cougars? Short, sweet, and to the point. He does POSSESS us, after all, now doesn't he!?

WOW! I didn't know he was! Thanks for passing that tidbit on!

If 61=I is still available, I will take ISeeStarz Cougar and thanks so much!!

Been on the "Cookie Diet" for a few weeks now....dropped about 20lbs. On vacation in VA, I took a 45 min 3 mile walk on the beach with DC serenading me the entire way....never felt better.

Ha! I can identify with this, Carole. My husband would do exactly the same thing. ;-)

hello - would it be possible for me to have #82 - "Delta Cookie Cougar"? i would be appreciative!!

and forgive me, i'm so far out of the loop i don't know which end is up - DC is in people magazine?? which issue? who's on the front? i gotta go to walmart later and would like to pick it up!! thanks!!

Hey there,
Could I please have #91-M for MadforDavid Cougar?
Thanks a million!

Yep, you got it!

I understand it's the June 16th issue, although I didn't see it at the grocery store today.



Yes, just updated the list.

20 pounds!!!! I'm so jealous! I bought a teeny little I-pod last night, it's about the size of a postage stamp. As soon as I figure out how to put my AI downloads into it, I'll be walking on the beach with him, too!

Damn! In HOW long? A couple of weeks? So I got back up on my treadmill tonight, with my D.C. songs blasting my eardrums to smitherines, getting ready to cool it down when All Right Now came on and I cranked back up the speed a few notches and kept going.

I've noticed the same phenomenon. I was on the stairmaster the other night with DC on the iPod and all of a sudden the thing stopped. I looked down at the screen and I was done already! Usually it's torture doing the whole time but I barely noticed. Thanks, Cookie! The solution to boring exercise machine sessions!!!

I must be relly really tired or something...but what does "cougar" mean here?
<blushing profusely>

Generally, it's a term for an older woman going after a younger man...on this site, it generally means DC fans 40 years of age and older...

I'm over 50 and kinda obsessed, but I have a son DC's age, so I've been trying to avoid anything with a sexual connotation ...
therefore I haven't called myself a Cougar. Should I sign up anyway?

If so, . . . I notice that 51-Y is available, so I could be 51-Y Yukon Cougar.

i am kind of not 'crazy' about the word "cougar", myself...because of the connotation and because the sexual
attraction is not the main event for me, tho i think david is VERY attractive...but i signed up (and if
he asked me out i would GO!!!!!!!!! well...that is if i was single)...i am over 50, as well and actually in
a relationship with a younger man for 10 years...who- by the way...loves dc also and his music...
anyway, i don't call myself a cougar- but i guess that is what we are known as here and i suppose it is a compliment..
so..YEAH...sign up!!

Could I have 43 please? Special number to me and this popped into my head Q = Quintessential Cougar love 'q' words

Great happy thread many Thanks

I don't know if you guys work out at home, but I watch my recordings of DC while I work out, and it gives me that extra...OOOMPH to keep going. The video of him performing with ZZ Top gets my heart rate up, all on its own!

Yeah, many of us have wrestled a little over the term. Although I know it has the connotation of older women trolling for younger men, on this site it just means older women who admire David.
We aren't dead, after all, and he is good looking! lol

But I doubt many of us really have any personal designs on him. I have my own man only five years younger than I am who is good looking, talented, and a musician to boot.

I certainly don't harbor fantasies of a romantic relationship with a man as young as DC. Although I don't see anything wrong per se with older woman/younger man. An age difference of more than 15 years does seem like too much for romance for me, though....But I do think he's the kind of guy I would have been interested in when I was younger, and I am absolutely in love with his voice and his amazing performance talents.



Hi there, yes, I'll reserve #43 for you. Quintessential cougar is already taken, and we've had more than one request for it. What do the rest of you think, should we have repeat words with new numbers????

can i get # 99 ??? for froogy cougar

did I get skipped??? post 183 above
