Hey Bob,

You've had an awesome career, spanning decades. Peoples faces light up when they see you. You've embraced how you entered the American Lexicon showing vids of peoples taking shots to the groin, a germophobe TV Dad, and a raunchy comedian who tells the best 'Aristocrats'... which have all created the Bob Sagat we all know.

What would we be surprised to know about you? (We know about the Herpes)

Several years back, I was visiting my girlfriend in Lyon, France. On one of my first nights there, we went into town with her brother, and found a bar. Due to a musical festival happening in the streets, we were the only people in there. In walk two guys who were clearly not french. I overheard them speaking american English and bought them a drink

Turns out, one is Twiggy and Steve (a manager of some sort). They didn't really have a plan for the night, so we invited them to hang out with us since I was already on a tour of the town.

Twiggy is a great guy. He carried around a little figurine of a smurf and, when confronted by a bouncer, would just hand it to him or make it dance in his hands, much to the bewilderment of the bouncer.

We wound up drunk and eventually they ditched us. One of my favorite nights of my life.

Fast forward 2 weeks and I round the corner to my flight back to the US and there is Twiggy, Steve, and everyone else. I spot him and roll up, looking like a guy who was just backpacking through Europe, and throw out a very warm 'Hey Twiggy!!' He's very warm back and asking about my time and what I got into. I thought it was sweet that he remembered me, despite only sharing a few hours together.

While this was going down, you were sitting right next to me completely perplexed about how the hell this guy just rolled into the situation and knew Twiggy. You leaned into him and said "Who the fuck is this guy?" The same reaction the first time I saw a music video of yours.

Years later, I saw a picture of you, him, John Stewart, and Trent Reznor backstage (here) where he was way more into a toy C3P0 than anything else going on.

My question:

Does Twiggy always carry around toys?
