Got your attention anyway, I'm sure!

I probably shouldn't really say this, but, apparently, (one of) Bob's snail mail address(es) is available internetly speaking (I think; it is the internet, after all), if anyone wants to go looking for it.  (Q: Is anything truly private these days?  A: No.)  I plan on writing him within the next couple days.  I honestly don't want to continue bugging his son-in-law (Molly's husband), and only once, early on, did Bob reply via his wife's email address, which, understandably, I haven't received a response from since that only time.  If I wasn't clear in what I just said, I fully understand why that address has remained silent.  It clearly was not, and probably still ain't, a fun time (Molly's newspaper quotes at the time make that all too apparent), and as I said yesterday in response to recent queries, I'm sure Bob's still just resting up and re-gathering his strength in order to do what he does all too well, as well as to keep us all in line.  I scour the internet frequently, and there's no new news.  And let's face it:  that's a Good Thing (pace Sellar and Yeatman) -- (if you know what I mean, considering how aged, infirm, and generally decrepit he is overall; just trying to get a rise out of him, if possible, in order to provide, at minimum, some well-deserved entertainment from him to all of us who do, genuinely, continue to care, and wonder).

"There once was a Ringwald named Bob,
Who never hesitated to hob-
Nob, with anyone who knew he'd sired The Molly, ... "  (I am not a Poet, and I Know It.)

Consider this the start of a Bob Ringwald Limerick Contest.  (Keep it clean.  He is, after all, a delicate flower.)
