Eariler in the week I gave a shoutout to my nephews Lucas and Jacob. They're in the Boy Scouts and are selling great food items for their troop. My brother made a great website that I shared with you but I didn't do it in the correct way (My brother is a computer guy and was "offended" that I made my readers cut and paste). So, here's the pitch: You know you're going to buy some snacks this weekend, why not buy them from my nephews?

OK, cool -- I can live with that.

Hey, I was on the TONY MENDEZ SHOW last night. It was pretty funny. I'm going to be on tonight too. What can I say, the camera loves me. I was going through the Tony Mendez Show archives and saw the tribute to Dorothy Chambers, she was part of Late Show security and passed away last weekend. The show they put together was really touching. I really liked Dorothy. We used to do this little thing, when I'd leave the building, we'd draw our fingers to each other (like drawing guns in a duel) and make the gun sound effects, ha ha. There wasn't a time we didn't do that, even if she was on the phone or signing someone in - it was a great way to end the day. I'm sorry she's gone.

If I ever have a contest again, remind me to limit it to U.S. residents only. The winners from yesterday; one lives in Canada, the other, in Japan! Have you ever tried to mail a beef log to Japan?! I'm up to my neck in paperwork! I'm kidding of course. I thought it was kind of funny. I was reading John's (Japan guy) e-mail, when I saw he was from Japan and I said to myself, 'Japan, sure.' Ha ha.

PROGRAM NOTE: I'm taking Monday off due to the holiday but I will be back on Tuesday. You'll want tomake a note of Tuesday's diary because I have some cool things planned for this weekend, no, really, I do.

Guess who's having a birthday tomorrow?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAM!

If you guessed my friend Pam, you'd be correct.She's going to celebrate her birthday by jumping out of a plane. I tried to talk her out of it but she won't hear it. Be safe Pam -- pay attention when they go over how to deploy the chute! Enjoy your special day.

Hey, it has been another great week at bobborden.com -- thanks for reading and thanks for TELLING YOUR FRIENDS.

Have a great weekend.

All my best,

Bob
