This is so fantastic!! I love to hear that this could even be possible!! IS THIS OUR ALI ON THE FORUM DOING THIS??? If so you go girl!! If not, well, it's still a great idea! Maybe he can even help raise money for the Red Balloon Learner Center! If anyone could put huge spot light on James, it would be MJ! Keep posting any updates!! I can't wait to hear this outcome! :)

Yes, its our Ali :o)

Thanks!

Hi Tiffany, how are you doing? Thank you so much for supporting this idea. I am grateful that Denise and Stuart do too and hope it will be a reality for their sake. The good thing is it's getting quite a lot of attention (both positive and negative, everyone can't agree of course) so even if MJ doesn't do it people are hearing about Red Balloon. Hope you are doing well. Haven't seen you posting for awhile. Take care and hope to talk to you soon!

P.S. Sarah has also started a Facebook group promoting the idea of a walk for James. I think things are really going to happen for Red Balloon now. At least word is spreading!!

Yeah Ali I think so too. It has to now. I will do this walk no matter what. Even if it's just me and Carla out there...how crazy would we look. But whatever I believe there will be some great things coming up!

Not crazy at all. Just showing the world that actually people DO STILL care.

LOL Thanks Julie. I know Carla and I have this longstanding joke about being crazy. Most of our friends and fanily had a hard tiem understanding how we could feel so deeply for someone we never met from another country. But I could care less anymore what anyone thinks...James is special to me and that's all that matters! I invision this walk in my daydreams and it is going to be great...we are wroking on the details. There will be shirts and buttons and it will be someplace that is very public. So I pray it all works out!

Sarah, it is going to work!! I believe it will. I only wish I could be there with you, but I am behind you and what you are doing. I will support you and all others who participate in any way I can

Email  

I am going great! I am so happy to know that there are more and more people everyday trying to make some kind of difference! What great ideas!

Email  

I hope so badly that someone gets what I am trying to do. It seems that more I try the less attention I get for this. I want to scream it from the rooftops. I keep trying to email the Liverpool Newspapers and it says error everytime for everyone of them. I feel the devils hand again and I am not happy! Thanks Lisa and Tiffany for the encouraging words. Ali I would like to have the email to that guy Chris I think it was. I was trying to find it but couldn't. I also think I am going to call the Liverpool city board or whatever they are called. I have to find a spot to be the starting point for the walk.

I Sarah I've just signed up with Facebook over the last week (about time too!!), so I'm going to try and connect with you re: the sponsored walk... here goes.

Speak soon.
Angela

Thats great Angela,you should have no trouble finding most of us on there. The group that I made is called Strength in Numbers for James Bulger! Walk for James!! Are most of us already on Facebook? If not if not I can still add you to the group if I have your email address. I'm not sure how it works but there is a spot that says "add someone not on facebook". So i could give it a try. Tiffany I don't think you are on Facebook are you?

I am on Facebook, I actually just started it last week! You guys find me!! I dont know how to work all that stuff!

Everyone stay encouraged. This will happen. don't allow anything to bring your spirit's down, doing so will only get in the way of what we are all here to do!

Peace and Love ya'll - Yes that is my Texan coming out! ;-)

Email  

Tiffany I need to know your last name. If you have already told me I apologize!

Hi Tiffany! I'm so glad you are on Facebook now too! What is your last name? I have both my maiden and married names Lightfoot-Hoeden. (Well , Lightfoot is still my legal last name I never have changed it I'm so lazy.) See if you can find me or give me your last name and I'll look for you. Take care!

Email  

Hey Ladies! My last name is Brown! I will see if I can find you all. I don't have any pictures on it yet, I use the library computer so its hard to get the time to do all of that! But I live in Dallas TX, and I'm 27 years old if that helps find me! :) TTYL!

Email  

Ok I will look you up then!

Tiffany there are several Tiffany Brown's with no picture so I had no idea which one was you! lol

Hi Tiffany and Angela -- if you are both on Facebook, maybe it would be easiest to join either Sarah's group ("Strength in Numbers, Walk for James") or Ali's group ("Petition for Michael Jackson ..."). I'm sure we could all find you there.

I think you can use my email address, add me to your contact list, and then import me over! I will try to find you guys! ;-)

Email  

There are alot of Ali's too, I dont know what you look like. What is your city and state?

I need last names of you gals!

Email  

I found the Strength in Numbers, Walk for James and joined it! So maybe you can put me on now!

Email  

Hey Tiffany I saw you on the group and requested all of us from the forum to be your friends!
