Originally posted by cashthetrashI had (he died) a brother-in-law who I knew as Louie. One day I met his mother and she asked me if I'd seen Bob. I said Bob? Bob who? She said Bob, my son. I knew she had one son but not two so I said I've not met him. She said of course you have he's your brother-in-law. Turns out his actual name was indeed Bob but everyone, other than his mum, called him Louie and that was a name he'd gotten in school, from the same character of which you speak.
Thanks guys for the Birthday wishes.
Grampy, there used to be a cartoon years ago with the main character being a horse called "Quick draw McGraw". He had a sidekick that was called Bobalouie. 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxBOlLFz6NU

lolof, hakima, coquette, dive, Bob, Andy, VR, Pondy, Stees my thanks to each of you for your kind birthday wishes. I value our friendships and am grateful to Russ for creating Red Hot Pawn, without which it's highly unlikely our paths would've ever crossed. Yes, hakima, another Aries... some days with clipped wings. Stees, only a day older without the least regret.
i hope this thread is available for me to resurrect on the day of yer demise...
