So, tonight I was over on GoDaddy.com registering a bunch of domain names (using my handy discount code GB1 from GeekBrief of course). Afterwards, I stopped by Bob Parsons’ blog as I often do (if he had Woopra, he would know it was me coming back each time!). I love Bob’s blog, because he is obviously having fun when he films it.
The production quality is questionable, Bob’s teleprompter reading hasn’t really improved with time, and the girl’s acting skills leave a lot to be desired. But who cares? Notice one thing – Bob is always smiling!
Now, here is Bob’s video from this week. But you have to check out the comments I found after I watched the video. I nearly died laughing…
And now the comment of the day:
Bob,
I really need your advice on what could be a crucial decision. I’ve suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.
The usual signs…the phone rings, but if I answer the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, “Just some friends from work. You don’t know them.”1:22 I always stay awake to look out for her taxi coming home, but she always walks down the drive. I can hear a car driving off, as if she has gotten out of the car round the corner. Why? Maybe she wasn’t in a taxi at all? I once picked her cell phone up just to see what time it was and she went berserk, screaming that I should never touch her phone again and wanted to know why was I checking up on her.
Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife. I think deep down I just didn’t want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her.
I decided I was going to park my Harley Davidson motorcycle next to the garage and then hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she came home. It was at that moment crouching behind my Harley, that I noticed that the valve covers on my engine seemed to be leaking a little oil.
Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the dealer?
HAHAHAHA
And Bob actually responded!!!
Dear Bruce,
You have a right to be concerned, and I’m proud of you for noticing. Actually it all depends on how handy you are. Taking the valve covers off, is really not so difficult. But in doing so, you might damage the gaskets. If so, you’ll need to replace them with new ones. You also need to have a torque wrench handy to make sure the bolts are tightened to specs. if you don’t feel confident with this, it will only take a dealer a few minutes to put things right.
Finally, do make sure the bike is titled solely in your name so when you dump your wife you won’t have to sell it. If the title is in joint names, trade the bike in on a hot new one with abs and make sure the title on the new bike is just in your name.
Bob
Absolutely classic.
It is old, but it is gold!
He has a pretty entertaining mode of communication. Add that to the comical material he is presenting and you’ve got a video blog that is likely to keep providing a positive viewing experience. His straightforwardness in saying that those certain links will put spyware on your computer gets the message sent to those that have doubt about trying links.
Well the comment the guy posted is not a original. Its a forward kind of a joke which has been doing the rounds in email since some time now.
