One my favorite characters in the early episodes of DS has been the presence of Bob the Bartender, who, although he occasionally speaks, is usually just a silent background figure at the Blue Whale, serving out drinks to all the Collinsport regulars (including a few oldtimers who are always at the bar) seedy characters such as Jason and Willie, and the occasional fistfight (one of my favorite Bob scenes was Willie's early altercation with Burke, Bob was behind the counter and grabbed a bottle, but Burke told Bob he'd handle Willie). Throughout it all Bob reamins calm and cool, smoking his cigar, taking care of the customers and commiserating with the townsfolk about the latest crimes, murders and derceased cows. So let's give a cheer to the sadly unsung Bob the bartender!

Cheers, Bob! [beer] [cheers] [toast]

Some years ago, several posters here participated in a DS Christmas round robin sponsored by Bobubas in which Bob the Bartender was the hero who defeated the evil force. It was fun to see a longstanding background character finally get some recognition. [santa_smiley]
