Is it fair to say that "Bob" is not his real name but might be the real first letter of his name?

I have always held you in very high esteem. Not only are you brilliant but you're incredibly kind and you helped me out many times during my 16 years on the Boston Bruins' beat. I have multiple questions for you. LOL. Feel free to ignore them. I absolutely adore your posts. I am not sure how they found my inbox but I am grateful for each and every one of them. My email is NancyMarrapese@comcast.net. All the best, Nancy

Having lived in Ottawa '99-07, and the rest of my 77 years south of the border, I was unfamiliar with your name and writing. I'll look forward to more stories. If you're not familiar with a (deceased) US radio yarn spinner named Jean Shepherd, have a listen. He had the gift of gab, and you do too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Shepherd

Thanks for that. I know JS's work well. Our misery is your comedy. Please check out my Audible Original, also titled How to Succeed in Sportswriting (without Really Trying). If you're comparing me to JS after that I'll take it as high praise. Thanks again.
