Default Sad news, but a little Net54 contribution to remember him by

I never had contact with Bob, but I remembered that he posted an original poem in one of the 'Bruce' threads (that Bruce sure brought out the eloquence in many of us) that I thought was quite bawdy, fitting and clever, so I thought I would track it down and post it here so we could share a little bit of his joviality...rest in peace.

Brian


Whilst swimming in the sea of mediocrity.
We came upon a penultimate she.
Unbeknownst to me, in truth, she was a he.
Puzzled, I asked “are you a low life musketeer?”
This brought upon him/her a gasp but not a tear.
He/she sighed then replied,
“No, I come from the Isle of Woman.
Where all are ex-cons, liberal drug users and micro minded villains.
And we look for those in kind, equally obtuse,
Akin to Bruce, are keen of the caboose,
And take pleasure making the unwashed rail.
Whilst adding two more, and twisting even more tails.
Alas it is late, landfall is far.
I must hasten now to my favored Kosher Sushi Bar,
SoSueMe.
