Hello, everybody!

Sorry I've been so out of touch with a lot of you. Life has been pretty crazy the last few months. But here's hoping that 2002 will be a better year for all of us.

A few folks out there have already heard the news about my upcoming book. If not, head on over to [url]www.thrillride.com[/url] and take a look.

I'll try not to be such a hermit in the future. :)

Talk to y'all soon!

-Bob

Looks excellent, Bob! Being without those Ride Reviews for so long has been tough! I'll definitely buy a copy.

I like what I see. I think I'll be buying this one, to add to my rather large collection :-)

BTW, Windjammer looks (shock!) pretty neat on the cover.

How can we be sure this is really you, Bob? PM me or something, I really wanna be sure. Hey, are your ride reviews gonna be in your book? I know I'm gonna buy it, but I'd like to know if they will be in it. I still kinda doubt this is you, but it could be. Who knows?

I'm not saying Bob's lying, I'm saying that this could just be a person who went to thrillride.com every day and noticed this and decided to sign up as bobcoker. You can't totally be sure. Oh, I just visited thrillride.com and noticed that his ride reviews will be there. Thanks, Bob! Will they be complete with [I]italics[/I]? Here's hoping they are. You da man (if that really is you). PM me for confirmation and maybe Q&A. Tanks.

It's great to see you back. I'm buying that book as soon as the local bookstores get it. One question, though, why is Windjammer on the cover? Every time I pull it out of the bookshelf, I'm going to see that picture and remember the time I rode Windjammer and nearly fractured my skull.

The truth is, even though Windjammer was a true headbasher, it did GOOD use by being a VERY good looking roller coaster. Created in order to be put on Rob Coker's book cover! Thanks Knott's! ;)
