Thursday night I put up my first Podcast (AKA: BobCast)! I called up Walter around 9:30 that night and asked him what were the odds of putting one up tonight? He said, “You make it and I’ll figure it out.” I love it…it went up without a hitch. People seem to enjoy it; I enjoyed screwing around like that, so I’ll do it every Friday (until it gets old).
On my way to work Friday morning I saw this on the back of a bus seat:
Bus graffiti: “We’re just victims of
public transportation prison”
Wow. That guy must have REALLY been depressed to take the time to write that, ha ha. What a downer!
After work, I headed back to Hoboken, picked up some food and watched one of my favorite films, Easy Rider. I see something new in that film every time I watch it – it’s a beautiful, beautiful film.
Saturday I woke up around 10:30. Excited by my podcast, I decided to experiment with the audio, get the levels right, make an opening, etc. It’s like a new hobby! Fun. I worked on it a little too long. I thought weather wise, it was a bad day but then I realized I didn’t open up my curtains, ha ha. It was the nicest day of the year!
I played x-box Live with my nephews for a little bit, that’s always fun. Around 6:00, I got a shower because I was meeting Tiffany for dinner before Kipley’s 8:00 screening (See Hoboken Digital link to the left). We had Indian food, mmmmmm. I had crawfish ‘something,’ it was lovely. Tiffany and I have a good time when we’re together…she’s good people. We headed over to the bookstore, the movie of the night was, Delayed Reaction by Israeli Filmmaker, Samuel Calderon and Mr. Calderon was there to talk about his work. Very interesting evening. I bought his film afterwards, it was only $10, I figure I’ll let someone else check it out. Kipley’s a smart guy to pull all these things together. Kipley told me that there were two people there that heard about his event through my website. How about that!? The power of Bob, ha ha. I wish they would have introduced themselves to me…I could have taken their photo for this site. Oh well.
I got back around 10:30 and put in The Terminator. From one film extreme to another, ha ha.
Sunday I woke up around 10:00 and had laundry to deal with. I headed over to Jersey City and the Laundry Depot was CRAZY! I said to myself, ‘F this.’ I hit the A & P instead. I unloaded my stuff at home and decided to do my laundry up the street. On my way, I asked Sal (mechanic) if he’d hook me up with an oil change. I did my laundry while he was taking care of my ride – I believe they call that multitasking.
After laundry, I headed back over to Jersey City to go to Target. I wanted to buy ‘The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.’ I’m a big Wes Anderson/Bill Murray fan. I got that and then decided to get a haircut. Supercuts, here I come, ha ha. Rather than get a buzz job that they seem to favor, I got a scissor cut. I just needed to make things a little neater. This summer, I plan on doing the buzz cut again…I just like the simplicity of it.
I went home after that, cooked up some dinner and started watching ‘The Life Aquatic’ – I’m halfway through it as I write this and I’m not so sure I love this one. But the jury is still out. I cleaned my apartment, watched The Simpsons, I’ll finish that movie after I post this and that should about do it for another grand weekend.
Now, about my special announcement that I told you about in my BobCast…I don’t want to tempt the comedy Gods more than I already have but if anything happens today, you can check back here at 5:30/6:00 for details. But either way, a great Late Show is on tap with Ray Romano and Dave Matthews Band.
That’s it! Have a great Monday.
All my best,
Bob
