Because Paula Deen really loves me after all...
...she, Bobby and Jamie gave me a call on their way through Chattanooga over the weekend; Phil-their-webmaster knew it was my birthday and he wanted to Make!My!Day! And...this is o.n.l.y. a slight possibility...but they're talkin' about bringin' some bloggers in to live-blog "Paula's Party", and even though I'm just a baby blogger, they really think I'm nice and I might get to at least be an audience member....!!!!!
Can you believe I kept this video footage quiet until now??? Neither can I!
** Updated with the video Phil took...

ARG...I was really getting excited for you! I am an avid Paula Deen fan..have all the books, have been to the restaurant 3 times, vacation in Savannah, etc..etc... And you just really got us on that April Fool's joke.
Isn't she a riot though?? I actually met and talked to the lady that bartended Paula's 60th bday bash and she showed us all kinds of pictures. It was cool.
Have a great day..
Blessings~Alyce

AS I read that post, I wondered 'Is she April Fooling us?'. AND - YOU WERE.
Okay - I remember being totally in LOVE with Rick Astley. And now that I look at him - he was just a skinny little nerd guy and really bad dancer. hahahaha

You are still so much closer to Paula Deen than I will ever be!
I'd like you to sign my cookbook for her...but be careful, I drooled on all the really good pages.

LOL! Happy April Fool's Day to you too. :P

Alyce, I t h i n k you might actually be a tinch closer to Paula than me!
SHB, hehehe...I bought it hook, line and sinker!
Jeannie, it really was kinda at the last minute--I saw it elsewhere and HAD to post it :).
Karmyn, isn't that funny? I had a fleeting thing for Leif Garrett and THAT I just do NOT understand now....
Do I sign my name or hers? Or Phil's? Or the brothers??? (I'd add my drool, too).
Thanks, Amber!

Glad I read the comments. The video went right over my head too. Some people are SO good at the April Fool's Day thing - not me!

I was just about to tell you to QUIT BRAGGIN'... LOL...

Stinker!! I was lookin' for video of you with Paula.
(I am so naive!!)
Posted by: Stephanie | April 02, 2008 at 07:20 AM
Didn't even click, I just assume that it's a Rick Roll. Oh, all right, here I go, back in a sec...... Yep, yet another dose of blinding white and red Rick goodness.
Just couldn't stop myself. On the subject of Paula's Party, we have something really big coming up, but I can't say anything yet. You, my favorite blogger, will be one of the first to know!
BTW, this is my favorite Rick Roll video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KANI2dpXLw

Jennifer, I missed it at first, too! Great minds??? Not-so-great minds...??? :)
Christy, hehe...and to think I never heard of it before today!
Jen, umm, yeah...hardly braggin', I'm afraid! Rickroll'd is the next best thing to bein' Punk'd!
Stephanie, LET ME KNOW IF YOU FIND IT!!
Phil, You're a TEASE??? Who woulda thunk it?! How long will I have to wait???? (and I LIKED your version of the RR so I changed my link...thanks!) :).

So I've been out for surgery, come back here to "catch up" and see this. I was so mad I missed it all and click over to see Hilarious Muppets Bloopers - then I clicked on the comments and saw it was a joke.
Damn, that was a good one.
But Phil - what is up with Paula's Party? You KNOW Robin and her tribe (you know that includes me) would be AWESOME live bloggers for that, right?!!!
