So, according to his student Todd, Bobbe the Kid is forty years old yesterday. Put it on your calendar.Forty.
You know, he doesn't look a day over sixty.
Happy birthday, Kid. When you get back into shape, you can come kick my ass. Or at least try ...
Here's something that will make your day, Kid -- you know those manly, buff pictures I sometimes put up here to make you feel insecure? Well, it turns out a local writers organization is doing one of those local-writers-show-a-little-skin calendars to raise money.

At least he is in the system and going in the right general direction, albeit on a slow boat.
Well, might not be August -- they are still fiddling with the order, but naked-R-us. I believe we are going to do something martial -- me, holding a big knife or something.
