About me

GenderMale
Occupationirascible curmudgeon
LocationSilver Spring-Wheaton, Maryland, United States
IntroductionRight now I am retired.That said, I have always liked to observe people with all their quirks, silly rituals and sometimes, just plain stupidity. I think I started watching people many years ago when I spent summers with my brothers and sister on the boardwalk of Atlantic City. There, in the summer splendor we found nickels glued to the boardwalk for people like me to pick up(haha), we saw a crazy woman singing lullabies and pushing a stroller which turned out to have three kittens dressed in baby clothes. Then there was the Belgium Waffle guy belting out "They're Delicious" every morning as the kazoo guy in front of McCorys danced and sold thousands of those darned things. Did I mention the Planter's Peanut guy and the smell of pork roll or the Steel Pier and the diving horse...? well, I have my own quirks and issues as well, but while I am no longer on the boardwalk of AC, there are some things that people do that are obviously idiotic and rude, and funny right around Silver Spring. Drum roll please..welcome to Bob's Blog.
