BBB's Blog
If you've ever wondered what it's like to run a magazine or how crazy my personal life is, be sure to read the behind-the-scenes peek at the daily trials and tribulations of running True West. Culled straight from my Franklin Daytimer, it contains actual journal entries, laid out raw and uncensored. Some of it is enlightening. Much of it is embarrassing, but all of it is painfully true.
In addition to this current journal, my early journal entries show the rocky road and money lost in the True West Business Timeline.
Bob's biography - The Unvarnished Truth
October 21, 2009
While I was in Bisbee I had Grant Sergot of Optimo Hats tweak my performance hat. As I mentioned someone from Carefree said I looked like a forest ranger and this is not the image I want to put forth. Nothing against forest rangers.
Grant sent me the hat back and I got it this morning. Someone in my office scrawled "Bob, you are the Imelda Marcos of hats!" on the box. I sort of have my suspicions that it was Ron (the guy who picks up the mail), but it doesn't matter, it's almost true. Ha.
I probably own fifty. Okay, maybe 175 counting stunt and model hats. Alright, 395 counting my cap collection. But that's it.
I went home for lunch and brought back a tie or two and Robert Ray shot some new promo shots in our office for Grant's website. We sent him four to choose from. Here they are:
"If it wasn't for hathead I would have no hairstyle at all."
