I’m not much for posting….but I heard the news about Bob and it made my heart hurt.
Anyone who has been lucky enough to share their life with an animal (most especially a dog) knows that this is an inconsolable sorrow.
Dogs’ lives are never long enough. I guess that is their only shortcoming.
Will keep Bob in my thoughts and prayers…
"You think dogs will not be in heaven? I tell you, they will be there long before any of us."
Robert Louis Stevensonthat breaks my heart. i have so much pets here and i am always so scared to lose one of them. i am very sad for j.
From Mike Watt’s tour diary, when he was touring as bass player w/ J & the Fog:
Quote:huge licks in my face, bob says "good morning." here we are at the start of another hellride – the next leg in j’s "more light" tour, the 2001 edition. bob is j’s five year old bulldog, whom I’ve had the pleasure of sleeping w/since he was just a young bif. he must’ve been like a foot long when I first met him. I was on tour w/the crew of the flying saucer playing northampton when j had us over to konk after the gig. j’s got a righteous pad out in the woods here in amherst and there’s great carpeting all over – an excellent deck to konk and start snoring on. anyway, I konked right on the stairs leading to what was to become later the studio (they’re carpeted too), loved the way my body formed around them and bob just curled right in there amongst me and warmed me like a heat battery. he is just so full of love. so adorable! he absolutely my favorite dog ever. now he’s older, bigger and just recently castrated but still that irresistible lover man I fell for that first konk. he is just so full of the good stuff! radiating warm happiness like an aura. special bob.taken from here

no, that’s not bob … but bob is in one of the beautiful "free so free" promo pics to be found here … + also he was on the back cover of a 7" … can’t remember which one right now … was it i’m insane maybe ? anyhow he was dressed up for that one …
i interviewed J in 2002 and we talked a little about Bob.
You can listen to it on FreeSofree.net
it’s the 2002 – Philly NorthStar I gig.he talks about taking Bob for acupuncture treatment…
it sucks when animals go. i hope it was peaceful for everone involved. i met Bob once in the park while visiting Mass. He was strong and had a smile on his face. It was warm out an he was happy. may he have good music and good food in heaven

My heart goes out to you J, my dog Danny is my closest buddy and I love him to pieces and every day I dread when that awful time will come and God will take him away from me forever.. It will destroy me..the only piece of mind I will have is knowing he is safe and out of harms way
God bless Bob x
[/img][img]New here but not to J.’s music…when it’s time for another dog maybe consider a portable pup like a mini weiner dog but beware the real one’s will only be 7lbs or under, fully grown despite rumours and conjecture aplenty. Sweet Polly Purebread goes everywhere we go. Bob, you can never be replaced but you pounded down a trail for J.’s heart and something says that eventually his instincts to go dog-less might not be forever…unlike his ++++ vibes for you.[img]Long live Bob
