Bob Barner: Hello, my name is Bob Barner. It sounds like Barn B-A-R-N, plus the letters E and R, Barner. So I was born in Arkansas, and grew up in Ohio, and when I was a kid, everybody called me Bobby, and for some reason, I just didn't like that very much. When I had finished college, I moved to Boston, Massachusetts, and I thought that would be great and everybody would call me Bob or Robert, but in that state, they like to call adult men Bobby as well. So I was still called Bobby, and now that I've moved to San Francisco, people finally call me Bob. So I'm a little happier about that.
