Now, after the little incident on ebay, the story of Bob Younger's "life" and "death" popped up. Lo and behold, I soon be came interested, and an idea for a story poofed up in my mind. So, I am asking all you that made up stuff, is there any way that I could possibly get info on what you guys made up. I also heard something about him sculpting trees. Is this part of the story that was made up? Any info for my story would be appreciated. Thanks!

FICTIONAL? Please Jake. A person doesn't joke about a life as important to Harbour Lights collectors as Bill's older brother Bob.



Made it up? Us? Never.

P.S. Watch for a Bob Younger memorial grove of trees coming from Harbour Lights later this year. Same company that made Keeper & Friends is contracted on these, so it might be 2000 or 2001 when they're ready. No Really. Honest.

I'm sorry. I had no idea that he WAS real. OK. Any REAL info that you guys REALLY know about Bob Younger. This is for The REAL Biography of Bob Younger

Selkirk van? If you don't mind me asking Tim, what is that?

Fictional Biography ?

NON-Fictional Biography. I am relatively new to the Bob Younger thing. By the way, anyone have a name of an uncle (the one that took Bill & Bob fishing)? Also, did Bob even go on these fishing ventures?

Who else but
Uncle Billy Bob Younger(whom they were named after)(Duh?) introduced them to fishing, and the love of lighthouses and trees.

Oy vey. This is getting weirder by the post. But the story shall go on!

Man, does that Selkirk van scoot. Must be in a BIG hurry to get everything unloaded! Any tally yet on how many speeding tickets, or was driver able to bribe cops with a nice new HL??

Bob, is still with us! He is inspecting the trees on the St. Marks piece. Those that don't meet his approval, he is loosening in their sockets.

If you really want to see Bob Younger come back to life, just start talking about making a Statue of Liberty Harbour Light.

I was talking to Superman yesterday and he told me he'd rather eat Kryptonite than see the SOL as an HL.

Part of the concerted "save great posts before they sink off the deep end into oblivion" effort.

This is considered a great post? Cool! Who woulda thunk it??
