boB jobs
Oh
where, oh where / Has my little boB gone? / Oh
where, oh where can he be? / With his ears cut
short / And his tail cut long
/ Oh where, oh where
can he be?/
Looking around… Oh you’re back…. Good to
see you all again. Most of you must be wondering just what our friend boB has
been up to these last couple of months. Some of you may even have heard of his
antics although he was mostly in disguise and no, he doesn’t do Rob Ford
impressions but once got mistaken for Mrs. Beasley-sans eyeglasses in his blond
god days…
Well it all began at the
celebration of the Ides of March…boB was doing fine until his little mix-up at
the first full moon of the year when he thought that the Flamen Dialis had
something to do with a new procedure to cleanse bodily fluids and not, alas,
leading a sheep impressionist (boB) along the Via Sacra to the citadel,
to be sacrificed. … THAT was his first mistake…
In addition to the monthly
sacrifice, the Ides of March was also the occasion of the Feast of Anna Perenna,
a goddess whose festival originally concluded the ceremonies of the new year
(March 15th). The day was enthusiastically celebrated among the
common people with picnics, drinking, and revelry and boB was having a great
time. Well it went downhill after he found out that it also included beating an
old man dressed in animal skins while driving him from the city. Three guesses
who had been chosen to play the ‘old man’?
His third job of the year
didn’t get him the riches he had expected either. Poor boB… At the end of the
rainbow should have sat a pile o’gold but instead he was met by a, big, burly,
and somewhat annoyed Easter Bunny demanding he return his fluffy tale and buck
teeth which boB had been going to trade the Lepracaun for that elusive rainbow
and accompanying wealth and wisdom…
Story of a boB’s life…. Next
job he’s hoping to get is on Flag Day, June 14th when he plans to represent the
Principality of Sealand. He is confident he will get the job since like
Sealand, boB is also an unrecognised entity!
Since 1967 the facility,
located on the old Second World War Maunsell Sea Fort in the North Sea 13
kilometres off the coast of Suffolk, England, has been occupied by family and
associates of Paddy Roy Bates, who claim that it is an independent sovereign
state.
Now is that not just a boB-thing to do?
