ROBERT (CAPT. BOB) SANCHEZ TESTS THE WINDS OF FORTUNE

(Ed.'s Note: Passersby near Capt. Bob's Restaurant on Price Road recently took this photo of the restaurant's namesake (AKA Robert Sanchez) and sent it to us to try to determine what exactly Robert was doing outside with his index finger in the air.
As far as we can tell, he is either pointing to Mr. Shrimp trying to get out from under the political campaign sign or he has found religion and is giving the God's Up There sign popular with many athletes in the end zone. On the other hand he may be saying that he is now single since his messy divorce has plagued him and his former significant other since last October. Then we looked at the white brace he is sporting and determined it's not one of those things they place on dogs so they won't scratch themselves after surgery. A local wag said it was a flea collar, but you know how people talk.
Later we found out that it really is a neck brace that he was wearing (probably on the advice of his able legal counselor) and that he is wearing it as a result of getting rear-ended while he drove his car recently. But not just by any car, the Cap tells us. It was a young woman driving a brand new Cadillac, he told us, and mentioned in passing that he was driving his new Jeep, too. For a while there, we thought he had found Jesus. It never is too late, Cap!)
