"Bob?"
"Roger."
"Would you like blueberries or bananas in your cereal?"
"Roger, Roger that."
"So... bananas then?"
"Roger."
"Apple juice?"
"Roger. Roger. Roger."
"I'm guessing 'roger' is the word of the day?"
"Roger that. Mom?"
"Yep."
"I just got you with a thermal detonator."
"Thanks?"
Thermal detonator. When you care enough to send the very best.
ReplyDeleteJust don't tell him that "roger" can also be used as a verb to mean, well, Bob Rosenberg doesn't need to know that yet.
ReplyDeleteThermal detonator. Roger.
ReplyDeleteGotta have one of those.
I'll be rogering all day now.
ReplyDeleteThe sad part is I know the voice to use ...
ReplyDeleteI would like to request the "Ch" noise with that please.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the thermal detonator. That's harsh.
My son is 20, and he and I just went on a quick trip to see my sister's family. On the way home from the airport, before I dropped him off at *his* apartment, we were going over his funny kid stories that he never gets tired of hearing. I told him about Bob Rosenberg and your blog, and that I wish I'd written down a Michael story ever day, too.
ReplyDeleteNever get tired of the Bob stories. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteOh! The thermal detonator. It will get you every time.
ReplyDeleteI would love this to be a book, that I could keep by my bedside, to take me back to the days when mine were just this magically little...
ReplyDeleteI've never been thermally detonated. What's it like? Is it fun?
