Six Degrees of Bob Watkins



Well, I'd like to say that my blog post of just about a month ago, reunited E. with Bob Watkins. Bob Watkins found me through LinkedIn yesterday (a month to the day of my post) and emailed me through my business site. He had no idea of the blog search.

In any case, we are reunited, and since he owns a meat company in San Diego now, I will be expecting regular monthly checks from him for all of my pain, suffering and loneliness over the years. Bob just celebrated his 27th anniversary with Janet, has a lawyer son and daughter-in-law, and a grandson now. All three "kids" (in their 20's now) are doing well.

So in honor of our reunion of sorts, here's a song that we can both appreciate.

From the title track of the Beach Boys 1968 release, Friends. Bob influenced me with his devotion to Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys.

Didn't he?

Are you sure this is the real Bob? This fellow is certainly balder and,dare I say much more rotund than the fellow in tge original post. Can any one remember when Paul McCartney died and the new Paul was foisted upon an unsuspecting public?

This is Bob's much better looking, well-preserved baby sister! So good to hear from you...you are just as cute as ever-as is your family!
Is my true crush-the third musketeer-still around??
Love the music tribute on the blog-ALMOST made me cry.
Great to see you again-thought you had fallen off the face of the earth!

Ok guys. Now you know where to find me. Yeh, Beth, you need to talk to big brother about falling off the face of the earth. Every time Dan Stapp and I talk, it's "Have you talked to Bob? Do you even know where he is?" Guess what the answer has been for the PAST 15 YEARS? Ha!

I've provided Bob Dan's phone number so hopefully they are back in touch.

So great to hear from you Beth. Send me an email with all your life story at eclecticity57@yahoo.com. It will be fun to catch up!
