I watched American Idol last night for the first time this season. If it were up to me, I'd vote everyone off that island. But the genius of that show isn't the winner, it's the show itself. The show gets the ratings. I doubt fans of the show are following the careers of Kelly and Clay. Now that I think about it, the real winner is Simon, he makes money from the show and the "Idols" -- smart dude.

After a few days of adjustment, I'm down with daylight savings time. I got out early last night and it was still light out - funny how that works, ha ha. Beautiful evening, warmer - just lovely. And the sky,
don't get me started on the sky. It's the little things.

I was walking by the lotto stand in the bus station and I saw the lotto results before I was able to check my ticket. How many times have I done that?!
I hate that! I already had the money spent too. I was going to buy a solid gold car.

Speaking of cars, you know what car I'm fascinated with right now?
The Toyota Prius. It's one of those fancy hybrid cars everyone's talking about - half gas, half electric.
Bob likes the technology
of this car

It gets 60 miles per gallon on the highway and 51 M.P.G. in the city.
Who wouldn't want some of that action? I'm not an environmental freak either, I just like the technology of it. And to give you a miles per gallon example, currently, my Jeep gets 13 M.P.G. - I'm not kidding.

Time for a new segment to bobborden.com, I call it -
Hey Toyota, Why Not Send Me a Prius?, here we go:

I just talked about the Toyota Prius, thus, giving Toyota tons of free word of mouth advertising. Now, any business school worth its salt will tell you that
'word of mouth' advertising is the best. Keeping all that in mind, I ask this - Hey Toyota, Why Not Send Me a Prius?++++++++++++++++ My cat, Evelyn, just typed all those plus signs. It's never easy.

That's how we play
Hey Toyota, Why Not Send Me a Prius? - Tell your Friends! With any luck, i should be in a Prius by next week - America's great!

Inspired by the
hit FOX plastic surgery show, The Swan, I'd like to share my own dramatic before and after photos of my own plastic surgery:
Before / After

Whew, that's a load off!
Now I can finally get on with my life. Oh, I like to have fun on the internet.

That's it! I'm taking Friday off to play video games -- Have a great weekend/Easter.

Down for Whatever,

Bob
