A Photo Op!
Hi Everyone it is me, Bob. Reporting in, as they say!
This is probably one of THE MOST EXCITING THINGS I have ever done and even though I had to share this amazing experience with Rusty, it is still exciting and wonderful.
My Sister and my Mom took us (me and Rusty) to the site of the New Dog Park to be built here in our town (remember - I just told you all about this?) and we met with a professional photo taking man who works for The Washington Post (that is a Big-Time News Paper, in case you don't know). He took about 20 gazillion photos of us (my Mom hid in the trees cause she has a phobia about getting her picture taken. Something to do with her wrinkles or something). He had one of those cameras that takes pictures at the speed of light! Do you know what I mean? Really, really fast?
So, my Sister is going to be the media person for the new park and a nice reporter-woman has been speaking to her about this new development in our town, and the reporter said they needed PHOTOS! I'm not quite sure at all how Rusty wormed his little body into this whole thing, but still, it was so much fun and the photo man really liked me. He probably thought Lydia was beautiful also, but he said I was one of the most gorgeous PitBulls he had ever seen!
Mom says if my head wasn't already swollen enough, it would now be impossible to get my new collar on and off.
What do you think my Mom means by that? Why would my head swell up? Do you think it has anything to do with the fact that my lips and my ears get red when I am embarrased? Should I be worried about this swelling?
Anyway.
So I am a Reporter Extraordinaire in The Blogging Business, but this is true Reporting. In print. Zoweeeee!
I don't know exactly when this reporting will appear in "the paper" (it isn't instant like Blogging, you know), but when I do know, of course I will share with you. Frankly, I don't know what is more exciting, The Dog Park or seeing my face appear like magic in the newspaper.
Mom says a lot of these things wind up "on the cutting room floor", so I shouldn't be so excited until the news paper gets printed, but how can I help myself? This nice photo man wouldn't lie when he said I was not only gorgeous, but VERY PHOTOGENIC. Would he? Would anyone lie to me? Why? Worse yet. What if only Rusty appears in the news? Oh, yipes, that's awful.
So, I'm going to sleep tonight with my paws crossed and I'll be looking for The Washington Post every single day. You'll help me watch, won't you? In case I miss something?
Anxiously waiting,
Bob

To Bob, The Finest Reporter on the East Coast! Wow, that's wonderful that you found that cameraman out there at your new "doggy park site". I'm like your Mom, though, and I would have run for the trees, too! I certainly hope your photo shows up in the Washington Post and if I do see it, I will let you know, or vice versa, OK? Now, about your head swelling: errr, sometimes it's best not to know the meaning of all things, Bob. Personally, I think you are far too humble to become a "big head" (your Mom needs to explain this) and I doubt that it has anything to do with you ears and lips turning red when you are embarrassed. Keep up the good work with you amazing reports! We anxiously await any words that come from someone as famous as you are. Love, Blazer, Kitty Kimber & Mom
Gee
I am feeling bad because it was never my point (really) to become so famous that I got a really BIG HEAD. Mom did explain the entire head thing to me and she says it is part of the reaon my new collar is a bit hard to get on (it slips over my head).
So I made a promise that I would not be a BIG HEAD GUY. It's more important to me to report the news and whereas it is nice to see us in the newspaper, what I really want to do is get on Oprah. Mom says if that happens, THEN I can get a big head.
Love and Licks,
Bob-Boo
