Bob was always into the now.. Christine wrote that song and she knew nothing about Bob, nor has she bothered to contact me or even send a card. *Ask her why he's not in the H&R Hall of Fame.

Nonsense! MTM is one of the best album covers of any Fleetwood Mac record!

Hell, it's a WAY better cover than HAHTF, which was basically the same band!!!


(That one was just plain creepy... BTW, F*CK Jerry Sandusky...)

Can't judge a book (album) by the cover.

I can't see Lindsey or Stevie being that person....(possibly Lindsey, but I doubt it)....

It's sad that it's even come to this. My feeling is that Bob should have been included, but then one never knows what went on behind the scenes. There's perhaps much much more to this whole story. None the less, very sad.

1. He wasn't inducted himself.

2. He remained friends w/ Welch.

When Wendy said Christine has not "bothered to contact me or even send a card. *Ask her why he's not in the H&R Hall of Fame," I think the mystery is solved.

I think so, too. My favorite member is a bitter *****. FML. To be honest, though, I'm really not surprised...

She's still my favorite member, but my opinion has changed, somewhat.

Who knew having a friend sue her was one of her buttons.

I realize that Christine doesn't live under a rock, but does she even now about his passing? I guess we are just assuming, but you know what they say about assuming...

For that matter, does Christine know about Stevie's mom passing?
