I'm not a baseball fan, not at all. People seem to love it. In my non-sports world, it came to my attention that even if I didn't understand baseball, I should watch Boston and Yankees game. I watched the last two innings of the last game. I didn't feel the excitment -- I just don't get it. But that's not really my point. I was watching the game and the Boston player, Johnny Damon, made me think of something. Check out his photo:

I was watching this guy because
I thought I may have seen him before. Has that ever happened to you? Turns out, I did see him somewhere before! Check this out:

Same guy, right?

Whew, I went a
LONG way for that. Here's an update to that story: New York lost and I guess in a weird way, so did Color Me Badd. Ha ha.

Time to announce the winner of my foam peanuts contest. This wasn't such a popular promotion. I have a total of four entries and one person entered twice!
The winner is: DARIN BROWN! WAY TO GO! People really win on bobborden.com! Send me your shipping information to the same e-mail as yesterday. Nice work!

Hey, let's read another fan e-mail. Today's letter is from Jim Schuster in Culver City, CA. Jim writes:

"Dear Bob,
I love the site but often wonder what your friend Pam would look like in a Regis Philbin mask. Do you think you could ask Pam? I'm a fan.
Jim Schuster
Culver City, CA"

Thanks for the very, very odd letter Jim. Yeah, what the heck, I can ask Pam to do that, she's
mint (New slang word for cool) like that:

Fan request

Thanks Pam!

My diet went into a tailspin this week as I found myself eating at McDonald's twice for breakfast. I got sick of my normal breakfast and wanted a change. I'm not going to make it a habit but Lord, it's so good! I get a #3 with a large orange juice. The #3 is: sausage, cheese, egg on an english muffin -- oh my, so good. I pick it up at the McDonald's in the city that's open 24 hours. It's always an adventure ordering because I'd say 90% of their customers are homeless. By the time I get in there, the workers have had enough, ha ha.

When they were filling up my orange juice the other day, they ran out of juice. I thought, 'Oh man, it's going to take some time to get some fresh juice in there, I don't want to be late for work because of this.' While I was thinking that, the woman, walked over to a refrigeration unit, pulled out a bag of orange juice,put it in the juice machine, opened up a tube and filled up my glass. You never really think about where your food comes from in these places but I never thought, never in a million years, that my orange juice came from a bag.

The other new thing I had a few times for breakfast was a V8. Man, that's good stuff! It has a lot of salt but hits the spot. The place where I buy it had a lot on Tuesday but when I went in on Wednesday morning, they were all gone.
They must have really had a run on V8 but my fear is that they were recalled or they were past their expiration date. I try not to think about it, it's easier that way.

I think that's it for FRIDAY! Have a great weekend.

I'm too sexy for your party, no way I'm disco dancing,

Bob
