Brother Bob Johnson: an Introduction, by Brother Bob Johnson Area 57 Creative Endeavor Contest Judge: Brother Bob Johnson |
 May 15, 2005 -- Yesterday morning, some joker dumped a tractor trailer load of fresh carrots in the parking lot in front of the old Sears store. When I went by yesterday evening, I spotted two of Orange's unwashed brethren frantically shoveling carrots into the back of a beatup For d Pickup which was squatting under the weight of its load. One of them told me that they wanted to get their share before they were all gone. Here is a pic I took about an hour ago of what is left. I can't believe that Orange has again missed out on a great economic development tool. If they had impounded the carrots, and bought about 2 tons of raisins and a couple hundred cases of Miracle Whip, we could advertise ourselves as the home of the World's Largest Waldorf Salad! Talk about a tourist magnet.  Carrots in front of Sears, Orange Texas, May 14, 2005. Photo by Brother Bob Johnson, © May 15, 2005, all rights reserved.  Carrot close up.

Waldorf salad is not made with carrots. Yours, Christine Fitzgerald. Dear Christine, We have pointed this out to Brother Bob Johnson, and invite readers to send in their Waldorf salad recipes. The Editors of Spillway Review, Online Creative Journal __________ Dear Editors, Why do certain contributors merit their own logos? Yours, Christine Fitzgerald Dear Christine, Brother Bob Johnson has held several positions of power in Orange, Texas. He has been a Councilman, Commissioner of Somthin' or Other, and has been president of about every big non-profit from the Orange High Boosters to the local Ducks Infinity Chapter. Editors, Area 57 __________ Dear Editors, So what is that? 'Nuff said. He's president of Ducks Infinity so he gets his own logo? I bet he went duck hunting with Dick Cheney. Just letting you know, I would like my own logo, and I'm sure other contributors would like their own logos or mastheads or whatever you call it to go with their work. I'm a regular speaker on the Fat Free Cream Cheese conference circuit. Is that good enough? Christine Fitzgerald ___________ Brother Bob Johnson responds: Christine: You are obviously a frustrated woman. Dick can retrieve a duck like no other V-P I've ever known. I get a logo because the Lord loveth a wealthy man. Take a Paxil and relax lest, He in his Goodness smite you. I'll bet you are one of those so called "New Age" women who shaves infrequently. Buy a razor, attend a God-fearing church, tithe frequently, and perhaps the Lord will bless you too. |
