There is a fountain filled with spunk

drawn from Jehovah-1's balls

And Pink Boys plunged beneath that junk

can destroy or purchase shopping malls.

I shall believe, I do believe that J.R. lied for me

that through his Pipe blow 'Frop-smoke rings

through Slack to set me free.

BEYOND "BOB"

Martin Heidegger in Being and Time (1926) had this to say about "Bob":

""Bob" is an entity which does not just occur among other entities. Rather, "Bob" is ontically distinguished by the fact that, in his very Being, that Being is an issue for it. But in that case, this is a constitutive state of "Bob's" Being, and this implies that "Bob," in his Being, has a relationship towards that Being -- a relationship which is itself one of Being. This means further that there is some way in which "Bob" understands himself in his Being, and that to some degree does so implicitly. It is peculiar to this entity that with and through its Being, this Being is disclosed to it. Understanding of the Being is itself a definite characteristic of "Bob's" Being. "Bob" is ontically distinctive in that he is ontological."

With portents like these, can there be any doubt that the Apocalypse can be far behind?

APOCALYPSE 552

We wait on the verge of an occurence --

Hell, we might as well say

"Bob" and be done with it.

Thomas Quale

The O In "BOB"

(USE ORIGINAL TITLE FROM APOCALYPSE "BOB")!!!

Frequently people ask me, "What is the significance of the 'O' in "Bob"? OverMan?" Sure. Without the 'O', "Bob" is just a bb. How about, "'O' is the Eye through which "Bob" sees you?" Probably not.

The real significance of the 'O' in "Bob" is that it stands for the Big 'O', the final mushroom orgasm, the party we're all invited to, the climax of the human race. Just remember: "Bob" spelled inside out is "oboe," which is an ill wind no-one blows good.

There are indeed a large number of potential candidates for the Twins' identities. Only one seems slightly more likely than the others. Hidden deep in the Chart of Time on page 135 of The Book of the SubGenius, "Bob" and "The Other "Bob"" are refered to as "The Twins." Since we are given no definite clue as to the identity of "The Other "Bob"," a shadow of doubt is thrown even on this prospect. We may not know the Twins' identities for certain until such time as "Bob" uses the Scissors during the largely unexplained Omicron Epsilon event, "when all hallucinations are externalized". Should your organization discover any evidence of the Twins we would appreciate your sending this information to us, that we may forward it to BulldaDa Time Control Labs for verification, storage, and, probably, dismissal.

* Editor's Note: Since this article was penned, more concrete information on the elusive Scissors of Sight have been revealed to certain of us. However, we must not divulge it until the appointed time, that being the day a major publisher signs a generous contract with us for a prophetic novel or screenplay about the events after X-Day. A hint: the Scissors allow the user to distinguish between the Omicron Epsilon hallucinations and "reality," and to discern the sources of the individual hallucinations. Needless to say, such an ability will be absolutely crucial in making the Time Intersection happen in our favor during those terrible Last Days.

APOCALYPSE "BOB"

We sought an Apocalypse of "Bob"

or an apotheosis.

We sought the ancient grimoires,

spell books of crumbled wizards,

mystery chants of long-forgotten people,

symbols of moss and sticks,

and all the paramental paraphernalia

of the alchemist.

We read the works of Paracelsus,

Cornelius Agrippa,

Saint-Germain, Cagliostro,

Aleister Crowley,

and, of course,

the work of the thrice-blessed

Hermes Trismagistus,

Arch-magi of the Arch-magi.

With all this we forged a song of power,

a dream to bring a new "Bob,"

a delerius shape

with which to rebuild the world.

Beware, California!

What rough shape comes your way?

He strides across America,

shaking storms as he comes.

His brow creases the sky,

and he stumbles only slightly

over the Grand Canyon.

He shakes the earth!

He grinds mountains to powder!

He is our new power!

He is our mad dream!

Beware, California!

This is the true "Bob"!

This is "Bob" Prime!

This is the Apocalypse.
