Bob: " It’s an interesting question because the more we think about, the more we’r,e in two minds, depending on which day of the week it is really (laughs).

 Bob Rickard Story - Secret Weapon Lures History
Over a span of thirty-five years, Rickard handcrafted a number of innovative baits, testing and perfecting them on the lakes and rivers of America’s heartland.
Rickard preferred using in-line spinners for their ability to attract more species of fish, but he acknowledged the superiority of the safety-pin style for fishing around brush, lay-downs, and vegetation.
Several heart attacks and failing health curtailed his own level of activity, so today Rickard’s chief delight is to see his lures earning the confidence of anglers everywhere, and in passing on his experience, insights, fishing lore to others so they can achieve success with his inventions.

 Penthouse Alien - FT093   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
In a radical departure from its usual parade of naked starlets, the September 1996 issue of Penthouse magazine declared that a genuine alien was to be unwrapped inside.
Until then, fans of naked earthgirls might not have realised that the flamboyant editor and publisher of Penthouse, Bob Guccione, was interested in the alien question and was partial to the idea of a UFO cover-up bythe US government.
Funnier still, the alien autopsy joke pops up in a recent Cantonese film called Forbidden City Cop – a martial arts and magic fantasy in which a royal prince is kidnapped by an evil cult and disguised as the 'flying fairy' (a hilarious rubber-suited version of Santilli's alien).

What Bob actually said was that it was time for a different approach.
