Surfer Bob , he's cool , he's suave, he did what every red blooded cool, suave, surfer boy does while in New York... has his picture taken by the Playboy sign. It's true. Everyone can eat your heart out because he WAS there picking up his date. It's true, just not a bunny. A reporter. That's why you read the magazine right? For the articles.
His raison d'etre for being in New York was to witness his date, Callie, graduate from Columbia . It was quite a ceremony. "Pomp and Circumstance" played for 45 minutes while the students marched in. Luckily the mix on the PA was outstanding while all the families waited for the show to begin and the playing of "New York, New York " by ole Blue eyes himself was, although not a stroke of genius , a perfect ending to such a classy event.
Surfer Bob visited many of his old haunts while in the Big Apple. He couldn't resist being seen with the Airstream, his favorite mode of transportation, at MOMA. The valentine at the top of the page is a Jeff Koons sculpture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Don't miss it if you go to NYC this summer.
As usual Surfer Bob ate well - best hot dog, Greys Papaya. Saw a show - "Cry Baby" and went to some awesome bars- La Quinta rooftop.
Surfer Bob finally touched the sacred sands of Hawaii. The waves weren't so great but the sunsets and MaiTais were. Gotta say, if you are ever in Maui, you need to stop by Mama's Fish House for the freshest fish on the island. The drinks aren't bad either.
What's up with the TSA? It's a different experience every trip. In Dallas everyone I came in contact with had never dealt with bone marrow. I usually refer to it as bone marrow because they really freak if I call it stem cells. The TSA agent that checked my cooler says" Is this going to be gross?" Whereas another agent comes up and starts telling us what gross is like a head on collision and pulling bodies out of the wreckage or recovering drowned bodies. UCK! The poor young agent and Bob did their best to ignore this guy. A lot of the TSA people are either starting their careers or are on their last job. Scary. Meanwhile no one at AA is paying much attention to me until I get up from my seat to make sure the captain knows I'm on board. I have letters you know. So the flight attendant reprimands me and tell me to take my seat. They are aware I'm on board and I shouldn't call attention to myself. Believe me that's the last thing i want. So then one flight attendant comes back to my seat and hands me my papers and says something to me. Then the first one come back to my seat. Now who's drawing attention to me????
Camp Sanguinity is at Camp John Marc, deep in the heart of Texas. It is a camp for cancer kids so, of course, Bob wanted to go. He had to keep a low profile because we can't publish any of the kids pictures so he fought off Indians with his cowboy body guards when the kids weren't around. He was the sheriff of the Ft Parker cabin. Bob enjoyed fishin, horseback ridin, and all the rest but he was not too keen on the food or sharin a cabin with 5 seven yr old boys. They snore and talk in their sleep. Mostly BMB liked the camp. What a special place. They even have fireworks!
