I've got a special surprise here for you in the front pocket of my dadcase
Dear Rob-
While we were busy TRYING to migrate servers, you were busy looking loverly in the snow with your dad-like briefcase, which I will now refer to as the “Dadcase,” while wearing your ONE jacket. It got me thinking, what in the world could you possibly be lugging around all over Vancouver in the Dadcase? Seriously, you’re like weighted down with some heavy machinery or something with that thing. You look like a homeless businessman trying to find an open cubicle to plug in to. Oh the possibilities of the Dadcase contents:
-Oldest IBM laptop that weighs 20lbs and has an amber screen
–Brick cell phone
-copies of How to Win Friends and Influence People and your old standby: 7 habits of Highly Effective People
-Pager
-Agenda for your next Toastmasters seminar
and of course:
– a printed and hand-bound copy of all our letters to you. You treasure each one and read it over black coffee with two sugars in your cubicle while booting up MS DOS and Lotus Notes.
Have a great day at work honey!

PS i love it when you do this wet hair look… please more!

Letters to Rob 
I have that exact jacket and that exact Dadcase. Do not judge.
And I told y’all he was my people. We now have the proof.

love the jacket, but please be joking that you have that dadcase! we need to get you a mac, pronto!

Seriously…we are going to break up. There is NOTHING wrong with that Dadcase. It is old-school. It is all kinds of dorky.
I will carry my new Mac in it. I will.
@Moon–girl, this could very well be his version of Special K’s backpack. The “Love Kit.” The Dadcase of Love.
“That is a Fragrance of Love scented candle, bitch…”

Well, I’ll be honest…when I say “I” have that jacket, what I mean is my “Dad” has that jacket. And my dad is the coolest nerd I know, so I borrow it often, and sport the puffy brown quiltedness, in all my glory. I do.

thank you for clarifying… i was gonna say…:)

And those pap pics from the last thread? The ones in which he is amusingly trying to hide behind a hoodie and sunglasses? Not working in the least. Unless he is wearing a full ski mask, there is no escaping that chiseled jawline and those luscious, pouty lips.
By: Sass on March 10, 2009
at 8:14 am
lol ‘a pager’ he may quite possibly have a red stapler in there too…
Part of me thinks he went out to buy a case and he had a hard time finding one. Once he got it home he realized that it was too big and just said ‘Fuck it, it’s fine.’
Seriously though, the dadcase is way too big. We willl get him a new one; a slim, sexy and stylish GQ approved manpurse.
By: JBell on March 10, 2009
at 8:16 am
you always make me giggle JBell. I can really picture him doing that. And I must say, that although it is a Dadcase, no one but Rob could pull it off.

he is in definite need of a “MURSE”

How can one man be so gorgeous and perfect and dirty and messy and adorkable and talented all at the same time?
By: Sass on March 10, 2009

“adorkable” that is the perfect word to describe him…I love it and he is incredibly adorkable. lol

I just reread and snickered over the MS DOS bit!
Don’t forget checking out the usernet groups, hee!! My first “fan forum” was a U2 usernet group back in the early 90’s.

1. I like the dadcase. It’s “old school” and very dorky, just like Rob. 🙂
2. It prolly has his Mac.
3. He has a new jacket, the black puffy one. I know because he was photographed in it the other day.
4. And he’s photographed yet again today. I really feel sorry for him … altho this set with the blue sweater is particularly YUM. Gahd, I love Rob in blue and wet hair and looking pensive and …

Dear Edward,
Do you see what you have done? You have made MELISSA who is a VEGAN offer to cook MEAT for you.. That’s it I am putting my foot down. You simply MUST meet her..she is like the femal equivalent of you lol…so so true.

Yes! Pennsy please! I think UC would like that, too!
By: Steph on March 10, 2009

I think Melissa would eat meat, too, if it were Rob’s. Mmmmm…I know I would. See, now there is more innuendo:)

He should only wear the black leather one he has… -growls-

hey KSTEW and Nicki were on twitter last night taking questions. Here she thinks of rob as a brother.
———————————————–
@cassieeeoh Mar 09, 08:30 PM
@kstich would you say you and rob are like brother and sister? nothing going on…right?
@kstich Mar 09, 08:32 PM
@cassieeeoh Yeah and that’s from both of us. If you have a brother could you imagine hearing people saying they think you’re dating. Yuck!
Supposedly @ColdDesert is Rob’s twitter account as kstew has respoded to that account and even by calling him out by first name in a post.
I’ve seen those pics with the laptop bag all the time. I wonder if he be searching the fan sites and fan comments!

Oh the wet hair and the “dadcase” is totally him!
Yes, we were talking a little about that the other day, that he is looking way too skinny.
By: Valerie on March 10, 2009
at 8:56 am
My husband has one of those– but he is a dad– so does that mean he’s really cool because he has one like Rob, or is it the other way around…I’m SO confused. Love his hair here– yep, don’t really care what’s in the dadcase:)
By: Brenda on March 10, 2009
at 9:00 am
Does he look mad? He looks mad? Is he agitated? I think he is agitated…ugh he wants left alone doesn’t he? ok well I just want to say he looks I love how he still travels alone..not with “buddies” and he does look thinner but going to a gym will do that. He looks gggggggggreat! Excuse my Tony the Tiger lol
By: brummielover on March 10, 2009

…Need we reiterate that per Nick Frenkel, “Rob has no online presence”…
Just throwin’ that out there. :]
By: JBell on March 10, 2009

@JBell…maybe his script is on Word. 😉
Oh wait, does he have a Mac? Well, whatever the Mac equivialent of Word is. Sorry, I am Mac illilterate.
By: Sass on March 10, 2009
at 9:21 am
The Dadcase is LOVE! makes for another reason to enjoy this man.
Perhaps he’s being environmentally aware not getting caught up in consumerism. He will use that heavy machinery until it finally falls apart on him and he obviously doesn’t give a shit about what long term effects it will have on his spinal cord. If it aint broke darling, no need to go replacing it with something light and pocketsize.
A mosochist for real perhaps?
Businessman disguise? LOL! Yoo hoo, I can see you.
Speaking of consumerism and pocketsize… sorry just a little OT here for a mo. I travelled quite a distance today to obtain my PE only to find they sold out… today of all days they had a bunch of older Women come in, see I know because I interrogated the Shop owner. The Baywatch edition was posted her in Oz last night, so it’s obvious some of you LTR readers beat me to it. Come on own up, I just want to know he made it to good homes.

In Rob’s case he’s got the NM script, blank sheet music in case of inspiration, a pack of cigs, lighter, Pepperoni Hot Pocket wrapped in foil, sunglasses, and a newly purchased taser for psychotic fans.
Bzzzz! “Don’t tase me, bro!”
By: vogue on March 10, 2009

I think he also has some trashy magazines so he can talk to his Mum about all the latest Celebrity gossip. We know Claire loves the Celebrity Gossip. 🙂
By: Carrie on March 10, 2009
at 9:48 am
And while the “dad case” might not be the sexy to some, I personally think it is VERY sexy to see Rob lugging that around, and I’d pay a very pretty penny $$$ to own it (meaning the very one he’s touching).
By: vogue on March 10, 2009

He does look kinds thin. Look at this pics in same pants a few months ago. Was filling them out a little more than now.

OK, so how does Twitter work? How do you get on a page for topics you’re interested in, like how do you come across KStew chatting? I realize I should slap myself for being late in the twitter world and need to get acquainted.
By: Jena on March 10, 2009
at 9:56 am
@Carrie: re celeb gossip: I’ll bet he gives his mom first-hand celeb gossip…Not the regular one from tabloids…Or worse, it’s the other way round…he’ll get so wrapped up in his bubble that his mom tells him the news!! Picture that!!! It would be so like him!!!
@Sass: Mac equivalent for Word….is Word!!! Everything windowed, we have it! and it works BETTER!!!
And with Rob’s being a musician, it figures he should have a Mac or at least a laptop that’s so beautiful AND worthy of sitting on his LAP (though I’d take the trade any day!!!)
@Everyone: the haunted airman available for preorder on http://www.play.com!!!!!!
I’ll play the bathtub scene till the DVD spontaneously combusts!!!

@Moon- LOL! Letter is great! ‘brick phone’!
I called it his ‘suitcase’ bag yesterday.
I think his script is in the bag b/c I read/heard that we was reading it in a pub/restaurant but how big is it actually? (posted this last night but here he is again)

@JBell – I think what you are referring to is a “murse”!
Although I kinda like the dadcase…but maybe that’s cause Rob is carrying it…it may not have the same effect alone.
Here is how I think the purchase went….Rob walks into thrift store…picks up shiteous black Nikes, blue plaid shirt, black pants, brown jacket…goes to checkout…”dadcase” sitting on checkout counter (someone changed their mind) and marked down to $1…Rob thinks what the hell, grabs it…now, that $1 impulse buy is the subject of a blog.
Awesome!

Oh, loved the letter. And you know what, again, I will say it, there isn’t a damn thing that I don’t find endearing about this man. Dadcase and all.
Dear Rob –
I bet that giant dadcase has got plenty of room for an extra plane ticket or 2 that you are going to send me to visit you in Vancouver. I just know it. 😉
See you soon baby,
Kristin
*I WISH! LOL!
I think I might have to start a twitter if ROB is on there….secret or not. and the Pattinson Pants? SERIOUSLY? 1992 called and wants its Puffy Paint back.
