    Yes, we do.  He used to work for Don.  He came to Southern California to fulfill his Hollywood dream.
    Since no Hollywood movie was in the need of any Bubba Talent at that moment,
    he asked Don for a job.  Don obliged.
    Instead of starring with Bruce Willis in 2Die 4Hard Money #17, he swung a hammer and built houses.
    Don cut his checks to Bubba.  We're not sure if that is on his birth certificate but that is how everyone knew him, his bank account was in that name, and he answered to it.
    Good enough.  I wonder if he ever got a movie job as an extra in a Bruce Willis movie?

  • He prefers that you sit on his lap and call him "Big Bubba."

    I knew somebody would figure out where I got that from.

    I grew up across the street from a family whose son was 8 years older than their daughter, who was my age.  She called her brother Bubba.  And then there is that handsome Bubba of the famous radio duo Rick and Bubba....The two sexiest fat men alive.

    During the time I spent in the Deep South, I heard many men, including my boss, referred to as Bubba.  He was also called 'Brother' which is where the term 'Bubba' comes from. I also knew women referred to as 'Sister' although they were not nuns. It's a Southern thing, I guess.

    That's OUR Bubba!!
    He may not have made it with Bruce but he made it on answerMug!

    That is celebritee-ism in a world wide way!

    Would you like his signature? I can dig up his file and try to track him down.

    My sister and I call each other sister sometimes, but not always.  If you are down here long enough you will run into an "Aunt Sister."  Yep, when the whole family calls one of the kids Sister, eventually Sister becomes an aunt.  That one still makes me laugh.
