Buford is what Rob's brother Stacy calls everyone when he's sleepwalking, including Rob. This is not exactly your question, but has anyone else noticed that although Rob says he calls EVERYONE Buford, he doesn't really. I'm not sure who it was, but I was watching that episode once, and while Stacy was supposed to be asleep, he called someone, I think Laura, by her name. I guess I'll have to pull that episode out and watch it again. At the time I though, "Wait a minute he said her name" but I don't remember exactly now what it was.

Anyway, Stacy calls primarily Rob Buford, but only when he's sleepwalking. That's how Rob knows if he's awake or not.

Christina,
It's Bufurd? I always thought it was Berford.

And, maybe he just called guys that. I remember from that episode Stacy called one of the other guys -- Mel or Buddy, I think -- that name.

That's right, it's "Burford." Rob says he always calls everyone that when he's asleep, and generally, he did. I'd have to check my tape to find that little discrepancy, I've just been very busy lately. It's a two-parter.

You're right. A fan like myself should have caught the wrong spelling, but I didn't. I was saying it right in my head, but in my quickly written response, I just copied his spelling. Spelling has never been a strength of mine, and I didn't feel like looking it up.

Now that we've been talking about this episode, I feel a need to watch it again.
