Dear Diary,

I got two pictures of Bob today. In one of them he was greeting Paulette Goddard at a Command Performance broadcast with a kiss that was just a little (am I kidding?) more affectionate than the one I got three weeks ago. The other picture showed Bob gazing in bewilderment at a sergeant who looked amazingly like Jerry Colonna, except that the solder’s mustache drooped a little more. Jerry was standing by looking equally bewildered.

I could have kicked myself today for not listening to Bob’s show as it was rebroadcast. I was going to find out where he’ll be next week and write him. Now I’ll have to send it around the 29th, Bob’s birthday.
