Man, I had a great day yesterday! I wrote a little idea that made it on the show. I don't like talking about the show too much on the diary because I don't want to seem like some Hollywood jerk, you know. I'm very humble. BUT, I was reading a magazine a few weeks ago and there was a great photo of Ernest Borgnine by the pool with his Oscar. I said to myself, wow, we should do a Top Ten with him. The next thing I know, I'm standing next to him and his wife in the dressing room:

L to R: Bob,

Tova & Ernest Borgnine
I was so excited to meet him - he was such a cool guy to talk to. Truly a pleasure. And the audience loved him! Darn great night.

OK, back to reality. I promised a Viewer's Choice Diary and I'm a man of my word. You asked the questions, I'm going to answer them (Even if they're lame, ha ha). Here we go:

What's your favorite flavor of Ramen noodles?
Chicken.

Fudge or Taffy?
Taffy.

Best sports car ever?
I've always wanted a Porsche 911. I sat in a Corvette a few times and I had to shoehorn my butt in order to get in and out. I'm a bench seat man, ha ha.

Best thing about living on the moon?
Being weightless.

Paper or Plastic?
Plastic.

Cup or cone?
Cone!

Regular or decaf?
Don't drink coffee.

Cats or dogs?
Come on! Is this your first day to the old diary? Cats!

Audio or Video?
Both. I love TV and I love music.

Indoors or outdoors?
Depends on the mood. Winter seems to be indoors. I do like being outside though.

Shower or bath?
Shower but only because I don't have a tub. If I had a tub, I get in there probably more than I care to admit.

Dream band -- who would be in it?
I don't know if it's a dream band but right now, I'd like to see Paul Stanley on Vocals & rhythm guitar, Prince on Lead guitar, Mike Watt on Bass and Tommy Lee on drums.

Last book read?
I'm a buyer of books but I don't have time to read them.

Favorite comfort food?
Strawberry ice cream.

Have you ever wanted to be someone else?
"I never wanted to be anyone else." That's a quote from Easy Rider (My favorite film). That's my answer too.

Are you going to see the Mel Gibson film?
Yes.

Do you have any plants in your apartment?
No. Cats + plants = mess.

What are your Oscar picks?
Lost in Translation across the board.

Burrito; chicken or beef?
Chicken. Beef is too greasy.

Hey, that wasn't so bad after all. Live and learn. That's it!

Have a great weekend.

All my best,

Bob
