wow... It turns out that Bob drives a Nissan! I saw it on the TV!

They had signs that say "NO PARKING EXCEPT FOR BOB." Not that he doesn't
deserve his own parking space and all, but a Nissan?

I always pictured him in a 1972 Ford LTD.

Perhaps this is the Bob of the 90's? And perhpas pipes will come back in
vogue. Or perhaps I'll just be murdered in my sleep.

Bzzzzt. Bad dog, no biscuit. The sign should have been your FIRST
tipoff that this was yet another Mediacretin attempt to co-opt the Church.
Instead of reading: NO PARKING EXCEPT FOR BOB.
It should have read: NO PARKING EXCEPT FOR "BOB"

>I always pictured him in a 1972 Ford LTD.

And, of course, you were right! Except that his uses the noble gas
plasma engine that the Pinkboy Kar Kartel has supressed!!! (You think I'm
kiddin'? Read "'Bob' and the Oxygen Wars")

Hell, no. Unlikely. It has already happened.

Bzzzzt. The sign would have read: NO PARKING.

"Bob" would park there anyway.

A cop, intending to issue a ticket, would discover that his pen was dry,
and that Dunkin Donuts was having a two-for-one sale across the street, anyway.
He would then give the person behind the register a $10 thinking it was a $1.

That sales person would be "Bob".

The cop would stare at his little paper plate as he sits by the window until
it reminds him of a saucer, and then visions of UFOs laying waste on the Earth
would dance before him, and he would leap up, screaming "Oh, "Bob", what a
Pink fool I've been, here's ALL my money, SODOMIZE me NOW!"

But "Bob" will already have left.

"Bob" will, however, have stolen his shoes on the way out.
