Default Susan's A National Treasure

Although this is a US article - the conclusion that Susan is a national treasure is spot on.

How many global stars take the bus to go shopping? Only one: Susan Boyle. You just gotta love her.

Actually, it seems to have been picked up from the Scottish Daily Record. I know Scotland only has 5 million people (I think) but she should get massive sales there. That would probably mean as much to her as anything.

Yes indeed, even though she is a global star, she is still one of us. I love Susan Boyle.

Bless her heart! Love her to pieces! The USA wants to claim her sooo bad!

Lucky Brits! (English-Irish-Scottish-all) I've got Scots-Irish roots and so I claim her, too!!!!! My grandmother used to tell me all the time"I'm Scots-Irish!" Never really figured out why she said it all the time. But, now I can really appreciate it!

Thanks for the link, Tink!

Exclamation RIK: Username Reservation Request

Website Administration Take Note - Reserve, as in not allowing Trolls to claim "557 Bathgate" & derivative usersames; this Scottish bus route is now famous as Susan rides buses on it.

RIK,

I suppose that it will not have harmed the business of E and M Horsburgh one little bit, either!

Imagine being able to claim that the woman everyone on the planet is talking about this weekend is a regular on their Number 557 bus frae Blackburn to Bathgate!

Not bad for a local bus firm!

Default Susan Is Green!

Good example for all of us. So far --
Susan takes public transportation or walks whenever possible.
She buys local.
She takes her own water bottle.
She reduces/ reuses/ recycles --remember those old pants with the defective closure? And her old home? (as opposed to Simon's multiple mansions).

(We'll forget the multiple plane flights--her contract makes her do that.)

Just the "mother hen" in me but Susan's so famous now and I do worry about her walking and traveling around in public by herself (thought her security had been beefed up due to a stalker) and there's no many crazies out there. I guess it's a "Catch 22" - I want her to have her freedom but I fear for her safety as well.
