I was watching Inside Politics, Wednesday on CNN and they were interviewing reporters on the campaign trail. They cut to Glen Johnson from The Boston Globe and the dude looks just like me!
Bob's Twin?
The photo may not be as great as the video but everyone I showed it to says it's dead on. I wonder if that guy has a hard time finding dates too? God Bless The Boston Globe guy.
12:46 AM UPDATE: This was too good just to keep to myself so, I let my fingers do the walking and I sent Glen an e-mail. AND, he wrote back, how cool is that?! Glen wrote:
"I feel priviliged to be included in such a prestigious site. I said to myself before going on CNN, 'You never know who's going to be on the other side of that lens,' and look what happened: We found each other."Glen went on to tell me that he has no problem with getting dates because he's been married to the lovely Cathy Johnson for the past 17 years. They have two great children; Patrick (15) and Kelley (13). Sounds like a great deal to me. Thanks a lot, Glen -- Be safe & good luck out on the campaign trail!
I did something funny/creepy this week. I actually did it twice, to two different people. I got on the Subway and there happened to be a guy I know, Dana, sitting there, reading the news of the day. Now, the social thing to do would be for me to say, 'hey, what's up brother?' But I didn't. I just stood there and stared at him until he was forced to notice me. But it backfired on me because he never looked up. He got up and I was forced to walk over and in a very creepy way, bump into him. Oh the laugh we shared, priceless. Then yesterday, I got on the Subway and there was my friend Pam. She was reading a magazine and didn't see me. I was right in front of her and never took my eyes off of her -- I never blinked! Then one stop later, she looked up and we had a great laugh as well. Oh, I love a good prank, who doesn't?
I hate to have two topics in my diary that have to do with CNN but this is more of an informational thing. Are you tired of getting non-stop junkmail for credit card offers? I can't think of the exact name but there's a place that will take your name off the list of four major credit card senders. I was so excited to hear that because I get so much junk, it's crazy. I called up and it's painless, call 1-888-5opt-out --bobborden.com & CNN, helping you to help others -- tell your friends!
Have I ever mentioned how poor I am? Most of my money goes to living; rent, car and food. I'm the typical Joe Six Pack where I'm one paycheck away from walking the streets. I watch my money but then there are other times, when I just have to have something so bad, I don't even think about it. This photo is an example of one of those times:
Bob didn't need
A Fat Burger opened up in Jersey City, NJ, I got on their site looking for the address, one thing lead to the other and I have a snazzy new shirt, that I'll probably never wear. WHY do I do these things, WHY!? I'm a large man, I don't need to walk around with 'Fat Burger' on my back. I might as well carry around a sign that reads, 'Kick my ass!' Lesson learned, finally.
Whew! the old diaries started off bad this week but after Tuesday, they kept getting better and better -- if I do say so myself. Such is life.
Hey, have a great weekend! Tell your friends about bobborden.com!
Sincerely,
Bob
