children we've made it!
The mice and me, looking west, with open arms she says come home. It’s been a journey. A wild ride! I never meant to be big movie star. And the mice prefer to be in cheese heaven all by themselves. Oh I’ve loved support from my fans almost as much as I love beet! I must tell you though…the simple life is where it is at. Easy like Mr. B.
Thank you for being friends of Bobinsky. Have beet and...
we drive all day and all night!
The mice and me are heading straight for Nome to catch ferry to take us to Motherland! Thankfully, the van is packed with amazing amounts of cheese and beets to keep us going! Just drive the mice keep yelling…just drive!
After the border there was beets!
Roadtrip going very nice. The mice and me made up to Canada easy easy, stopped at a very hard to find beet farm yesterday and I was practically speechless!
Alaska here we come!
The key to good roadtrip...
is the TUNES!
The van is rockin!
say CHEESE!
My eyes have never seen such beauty before thanks to Tillamook Cheese Factory this afternoon! The mice and me ran into visitors center so fast they say “slow down!”
Roadtrip going very nice!
Everybody hop in van!
I finally finish my route for roadtrip to Bering Sea! Just me, the mice (yes of coure, all of them) and a funny van that’s strong like beet! Next stop CHEESE FACTORY!
We leave first thing in morning!
...a VAN!
That’s right! I bought very eastern european van for my upcoming roadtrip to Bering Sea, gateway to my motherland…RUSSIA!
Very happy Mr. B I be!
I was in bay area to find...
what???
Anyone care to take gander at what Mr. B bought!?! (details soon children, soon!)
I've hit the road...
Details are starting to trickle in, Mr. B on a trip with van full of beets and road worthy cheese treats! Saw funny banner in Northern California the other day, look familiar to me :)
I've been meaning to tell you...
Mr. B has big plans ahead and before I let you know exactly what I’m thinking…
I thought it might be nice to give little hint :)
gourmet beets
A friend took me out to dinner recently to celebrate my new actor status. Everything was amazing and waiter even notice me from movie! I had interesting beet dish that I never have before. Big strong yum!

good luck with dunk!
Tomorrow is final date for lucky one or two (of course more!) to get chance at their own dunks, thanks to Coraline dunk contest. I just want to wish everybody the best of beet luck!
And maybe just maybe Mr. B get nice pair after all :)
С днем рождения Алексис!
To my niece who turns 3 today!
She's gonna be pleased with her Uncle Mr. B
Mr. B has niece, did you know that? Yes it true and she’s too cute! And just for her birthday coming in few days, the mice promised a dance routine for her and here is practice shot.
other bobinsky take note
When I read below quote from Wikipedia, I am mostly happy with description. That was until I read last part about Coraline’s mother thinking I am fat drunk? But wait second I thought…she’s not talking about me!
Mr. Sergei Alexander Bobinski (known as Mr. Bobo in the novel), one of Coraline’s neighbors, is a blue-skinned Russian/Montenegrin giant who once trained as a...
a weekend in heaven
The mice and me are gonna have fabulous weekend thanks to nice package that arrived today!
I am like rock star?
I get this sweet message a few days ago and I think I have admirer in world of rock n roll. I thought it might be nice and share message with you. Very nice, yes.
songs of Coraline
Many many people ask me, “hey Mr B…where does that amazing music in movie come from?” And I always say, the music comes from France (mostly)!
Bruno Coulais!
shades of my celebrity status
I finally see movie for real over long weekend. I love it! So outstanding and stupendulous! And just as my curiosity speaks, I find very interesting comments written about me, Mr. B!
In the top apartment is Mr. Bobinsky, a Russian circus performer who’s always contorting his body in strange shapes and leaping around the roof of the house.
….the outright weird Mr. Bobinsky.
and Mr....
don't trust this man
I was on my way to see Coraline movie, minding my own business when I stumble across this…
He was doing special Valentine’s Day performance and the circus mice looked silly. I’m not big fan.
I see me
With long weekend ahead, I decide time is right to finally see myself on big screen—Coraline movie! I must take mice with me (I’ll stuff the little bobishkas in my pocket) and I bring my own version of favorite movie time snack too…movie cheese!
Now I just wonder if I find small enough 3D glasses to fit mice…
a little attention for a good cause
Though the other Bobinsky is almost never up to anything great, he did put some of his circus mice up for auction! It is for a worthy cause—proceeds benefit the Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation. Just makes me wonder why me, Mr. B., doesn’t get such deserved celebrity attention? How much would I cost? Pretty penny indeed!
my celebrity art piece
After many many phone calls…”hello this is Bobinsky bobishkas blah blah blah…”, I decide to take long nap. When I wake up, I see in my email a gift from artist with my picture. Yes, the celebrity life is starting to happen for Mr. B, very nice. I like!
Coraline Dunks!
The time is here, those dunks (www.coraline.com/dunks) could be near!
pick up the phone...
I am calling you!
The mice make me proud
I haven’t seen the mice in days. Maybe they are nervous for opening of new film? Maybe they have some sort of winter hibernation appointment happening? No, none of these thoughts was correct…
The mice have been busy working on new circus routine and greeted me this morning with this special message!
I love these mice!
coraline has a secret
I see young Coraline today while doing my chin-ups. She tells me that she has secret to share. And I say, what could it be—a box for Bobinsky (finally!)? No she says and hands me a piece of paper:
If you are in Portland, Oregon tomorrow February 5th for the Coraline premiere, then you will be treated to a few of the films stars Dakota Fanning and Teri Hatcher live in person!
But wait a minute, I...
and you could use these too!
What timing, I find this cut-out of 3D glasses in box today and with Coraline only 4 days away…these come in very handy!
step right up and get your tickets!
The spectacular, the stupendulous, the amazing film Coraline opens this Friday February 6 and stars someone you know rather well…ME! Time to make plans to see movie, no?

Maybe there's hope for a box afterall!
I admit that I had given up hope on getting one, nifty Coraline box full of amazing treats. That was until I receive gift from mice today. So, does the mystery continue?
Here, treat your ears to this sweet song in honor...
Are you a koumpounophobe?
See this video of Neil Gaiman saying some interesting things about buttons…
For the love of Neil...
The man, the myth, the now sure to be, how you say, celebrity…Neil Gaiman getting some much deserved love for his amazing writing talents. Congrats Mr. Neil!
And now I really can't believe!
Dunks
dunk bonanza
More and more talk about these dunks. I don’t know much about them at all…and I am in movie! It sounds like this guy doesn’t care for them? Maybe he give you pair?
you like dunks?
After many many interesting comments about these dunk things—I have finally figured out what people are talking about. It’s the SHOES!
I like dunks, but it looks like mouse beat me to it.
a sneak peek in HD
The mice leave little gift for me on the computer today with note attached that read RATS! I think it new trailer about the movie I’m in! But what is this HD, Heavy Duty?
And what is this worry with rats? Bobinsky no have time for rats!
see only my best features
I stumble upon very interesting blog recently. It might just give you idea of where I get my fabulous physique (like maybe she’s really my trainer!). Ha, you tell me…what’s my best part? I like to think my chin is for the winners.
somebody's playing trick on me
Remember my post about the Coraline box being found? And how I wondered if me, Mr. B, might get lucky and receive one too? Well, I haven’t yet. But that doesn’t mean I’m not hearing about other people who are! This I found after mouse leave computer on for me to see. I swear, the mice always have something up their sleeve!
Oh, and I almost forgot…today the sun was shining...
getting some love from the mice
I read many books more than poetry. I like books—mostly I like books with extra pictures, of course! The mice tell me read this book, they say it is called comic but I do not understand… it is not funny!? I try to find BIGGER comics for little mice, and what to I see?
Those small whispers ask for “super-cool” bedtime story too, but sadly I cannot find one…
And Mr. B listen
Now after I get interesting poetry like message from the mice, it is me who is all ears when it comes to everything mice like. I just wanted them to get off the couch and stop being lazy. Wow, the mice are much smarter than I thought! Time to buy some (expensive) cheese…
the mice speak!
I hear funny message coming from the mice hole this morning while I eat my beets. It went like this…
we are small but we are many
we are many we are small
we were here before you rose
we will be here when you fall
Sounds like the mice have been a little mad at Mr. B for my anti-lazy mice campaign…
Either that or maybe that strange Coraline has been turning them against me?
lazy mice be gone!
The mice have been very lazy lately. Maybe they still tired from New Years? I don’t know. I have special anti-lazy mice campaign that I use sometimes just when I think they need it. Stay tuned for some interesting ideas from Mr. B!
Das Vadanya 2008!
Mr. B wishes a very happy new year to all the mice out there!
