I'm going to kick things off today with a new feature to bobborden.com, I call it; Bob Tells Cat Stevens a Thing or Two, ready? Here we go: 'Sorry Bro, you can't play both sides of the fence. Have a nice flight back to wherever!' That was Bob Tells Cat Stevens a Thing or Two -- Tell your friends!

I feel like I have a sunburn on my face. I'm running a little hot. I don't know what that means either. I just feel off these days, I may need a new bed. I've had the same mattress for over 9 years. And I'll be 100% honest, the thing is crying at this point, ha ha. I always seem to wake up, not comfortable. Oh well.

If you had to mail something overnight, what service would you use; FEDEX, UPS (Brown) or DHL? I bring this up because DHL has an ad campaign right now that's just crazy. I've seen commercials, billboards and print ads. I have to say, if I were sending something overnight, I'd go with FEDEX. They seem to be the gold standard in shipping stuff. I don't know, it just made me think, with all the millions DHL is spending on advertising, can they really beat the big dogs? I guess that's the question for all ads. Ads work, there's no question about that. Ah, I had a point but I think I lost it in the facts, ha ha.

If you live or work in New York City you can't help to run into giant fiberglass apples, painted by artists. They did this years ago with cows. It's for charity and that's wonderful but, these things stick out like a turd in a punchbowl! I'm not sure just because an artist paints something on a giant apple, that it's art.

THIS ISN'T ART,

right?
I'm sure there are no giant apples that tell the darker side to New York. Am I making any sense or am I just being an old crow? Please don't answer that. Give money to charity, that's great -- but I don't want to see this "art" every time I have to walk through the bus station. They're going to auction off the apples after two months -- such a song and dance.

This past weekend (The bad one), there was one funny thing I forgot to write down. I was in a store making a purchase, a guy and a girl walk in. He says in a tough voice, "Give me a pack of Newports..." He looks at his girlfriend and says, "and some Skittles" HA HA -- That was funny! She spoke and said, "No, not the candy, I want the gum, the Skittles gum."

And on that note, I say to you -- have a great day!

Sincerely your internet friend,

Bob
