Erin,

You asked,

> who is Bob?

I could push your leg, and tell you that Bob, in this instance, is "Bad
Bob" an old hippy, and neighbor who at various times was a finish
carpenter, boat builder, violin maker, serial womanizer, and drunk, who
died old, at 55, serveral years ago. His most notable accomplishment was
founding "The Church of Bob" who's primary creed was, "A gift to Bob
will save you!" Which was alway religiously followed by, in very fine
print, and in invisible ink, a scrawl which read (... and me, from
having to work.)

But in this case, Bob is colloquial for Robert, as in Pirsig.
