The best of course was Vegas where I was picked up by him in a Maybach Limo and driven to my hotel. When we pulled up, you would think a space ship had just landed. This was "Buddy Style" He used to say "this is how we roll baby". One day we were doing a trunk show in San Diego and we had breakfast together and he had 18 pieces of bacon, four eggs and numerous pieces of toast on his plate. There was not one inch left on that plate. That afternoon, our backs were killing us from standing all day so Buddy called this massage girl he knew and she came to the store and gave us massages in the back storage area. This was going on while sales people were walking in and out of the storage room. She was great. Her name was and this is true "Mother Nurture". Only Buddy could pull this one off. I have a hundred more of these stories which I will post soon. Both Buddy and I getting on the Korean Tour bus will be next."

John And Buddy Korean Bus Tour..
As usual, Buddy and I met up in San Diego for a trunk show. We had a day to kill and we always talked about going to the San Diego Zoo but never went. So we decided to go the next morning.As usual "gadget man' had the latest GPS system in his bag so we were confident we would get there. We were walking to the parking lot where Buddy spotted two big busses with the words clearly marked "San Diego Zoo" Buddy loooked at me and said "follow me bro" I knew I was in trouble. We boarded the bus, and took seats in the second row. There were about twenty Korean people staring at us and the silence was deafening. I was sweating bullets while Buster tells me to act normal. Between the two of us we were carrying about a million dollars in product. Well the bus took off and I started to relax. Buddy helped himself to a coke from the cooler. When we got to the downtown area, the Korean tour guide was giving out the tickets for the zoo. When he got us, there were none left. The tour guide asked who we were and we told him we saw the bus and wanted to go to the zoo. He was a little more than angry and cursed at us in Korean and also at the bus driver. We were escorted off the bus in a not so desirable area. As the bus took off, all of the Korean Tourists were laughing at us and I remember Buddy throwing his half empty can of coke at the laughing tourists. We made it to the Zoo and had a great time and eventually we both laughed the whole thing off. Never a dull moment with Buster. I really miss him

John
