    Welcome to SRP Vasco. Your best bet is to send Lynn a PM, or contact him by messaging on Facebook if you're signed up with that.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Or contact Sharpton or Spazola. We were not able to reach him before Charlie's meet-up this past winter. Hopefully he's okay.

    Can't remember which of the mentors told me, but iirc Bob has problems with his fingers and has stopped making razors because of the fine motor skills involved.

    Well, that's bad news/good news. I'm sorry to hear about his hands but I'm glad to hear at least that he's still alive. I was pretty worried when no one could get hold of him. I'd still love to see him come to Charlie's place next year.

    There was no reason for going to restaurants this year, because Bob wasn't there to flirt with the waitresses for us.

    Would have been me. Talked to Bob last year and he told me he would be making no more razors as his hands would no longer allow it.

    Have not been able to raise him since.
    Kindof wish I had one of his razors now. They were just so frigging huge!
    I always told him little guys shave with smaller/lighter razors!
    Bob's a big boy!

    Hope he is OK....Great dude. Funny guy!

    Please, if you get the chance to speak with him again, try to pass on our best wishes. I sincerely hope that somehow, some way, you and Bob both can come next year.

    Dear Jimmy Had:



    Bob Allman (rcallman@comcast.net) replied to my contact and confirmed that he can no longer make razors! What a loss! What a loss!
