My New Friend

It appears the New Place might just have a similar cast of characters as my beloved Rock Ridge. I'm still meeting people every day and most the time I have forgotten the person's name within the hour. Not today, though.

"I'm Bob," this ancient person said to me as he extended a hand more gnarled than an old sea captain.  "Bob! Well, I shouldn't forget that," I replied.

"You won't if you put an extra O in it," he deviously grinned.

Indeed I won't. Ever.

He's right, you know.

O'Bob makes him Irish. And it's impossible to forget an Irishman.

Especially one with big boobs.

Oops. I meant to say "big 'eyes'".

Bob sounds *hot*!

(I never get boob innuendoed. So jealous.)

@G--I just knew you would like this one after the Big Eyes comments. Of course, me and my pollyanna-ish ways didn't get what he meant right away....even *with* the raised eyebrow and "cluck cluck" of his tongue...

I wish I was as quick on my feet as Mr. Bob. That's awesome.
