aka Shank Junior

Why is his nickname not sluvious?

Congrats to Bob and the mama!

Congratulations Mr Shank I don't think you will ever look at christmas the same way again

Bob Shank

For total life management whom shall we thank?
I think none other than the author, Bob Shank
A proclaimed loner that should never be alone
A Poet Laureate that has denounced his throne

He writes to express to us each thought
About what is right, and what is not.
His friend Slavious may be uncouth
But Bob always seems to seek the truth

Though descended from a native son
He's not so proud of all that's been done
There's no more honesty can you find
Than the one who freely speaks his mind

Tolerant, gentile and ever so mild
Except when there is abuse of a child
The very idea makes him so mad
I know he will make a great dad

Why is his nickname not sluvious?

Moose was the name of one of Bob's best friends that passed away a few weeks ago. I am presuming that is where Xavier's Moose nickname comes from. I think anyway

I wish him well on his journey through fatherhood and its many sleepless nights ... lol
And hope he now believes "wishes do sometimes come true" and am certainly very happy that this one did for him.

OMG mike..reminds me of the Goat Conversation.

I am afraid of having kids.Now.

Congratulations, Bob, on the little one. Christmas baby! Moose is a great nickname.

Congratulations Bob!!!

And not to mention that you LOVE Moose.
Or Moose(s) as my Josh would say ..lol
