An Interview With "El Dildo Bandito"

HombreVIII writes "Bob Rowan, the man who recently became known as El Dildo Bandito, was gracious enough to allow me to interview him via e-mail. I kept it fairly short with just 9 questions, and here are the results." Click Read More below for the interview. And thanks, Hombre! :)

1. Hombre: "How did you first hear about the exhibit hanging at the library?"

Bob: "From a letter that Sen Ben Nighthorse Cambell wrote to the head librarian & was read aloud of Fox radio last Friday morning (KRFX) 103.5 Denver"

2. Hombre: "What was your first reaction when you discovered it?"

Bob: "This bullshit has gotta go!"

3. Hombre: "Why did you decide to react as you did?"

Bob: "I felt time was of the essence... If our Senator cannot persuade the dumb student & librarian - nobody can! For some, words of morale character will forever be meaningless."

4. Hombre: "You're actions could be described as being a bit on the extreme side, yet in the note you left behind you referred to yourself as 'El Dildo Bandito'. This presents the image of someone who isn't seeking to get himself taken seriously, but the issue itself. Was that message you were trying to send?"

Bob: "Hey guy's we're talking about stealing dildo's, crotch humor is not bad, the sarcastic note was intended to bring laughter with hurt."

5. Hombre: "Was it ever your intention to keep the ceramic penises, or had you planned to return them from the start?"

Bob: "We intended to return em & had em boxed by the time the cops came at 1:30 am Sunday."

6. Hombre: "Have you gained a lot of celebrity as a result of this? If so, how has it effected your life?"

Bob: "Yes a little... a bit hectic with interviews, however after asking my lawyer if I should shut up now, he emphatically said no. 'You keep talking & tell the people,' he said, 'enjoy the moment'."

7. Hombre: "Do you feel that your actions have helped make the issue of male bashing a little more known to the public?"

Bob: "Absolutely! no question."

8. Hombre: "What do you think the messages were that this 'artwork' was sending out?"

Bob: "All men are assholes, our military can kiss my ass & screw the flag."

9. Hombre: "Do you think El Dildo Bandito will ever strike again, in a similar fashion to that of Zorro resurfacing whenever the people needed him?"

Bob: "Count on it!"
