What Would Bob Do?



Occasionally in my pop culture journeys, I've crossed paths with J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, or a reasonable facsimile thereof. Bob is the supposed founder of something called The Church Of The Subgenius, which is (according to who you ask) either a mock cult, or a cult of mockers. Either way, they promise on their web site to bring you eternal salvation for only $30, and I call that a bargain. The lovely Miss Stockham clued me in to these videos which were made by The Church to illuminate their philosophy. The first clip was produced for MTV and the second aired on Night Flight (remember THAT show?). As a bonus, I've also included "The Ballad Of Bob Dobbs." Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
