Barbara Bimbo[1]

"Yes, and I've made my decision, you know, too"
―Barbara before choosing her bachelor

Barbara Bimbo (Barbie) is a girl from Airhead, California. She was one of Larry's minor 'conquests' following being tossed out by Eve, and the first he had hoped to find true love with but ended in disappointment.

Background

She was a former member of the Eta Omicron Zeta sorority at Walnut Log Community College in 1986-87.

Her hobbies are computer programming, creating unusual milkshakes and tantalizing elderly men. Her turn-ons are industrial-grade blenders and RS-232 interfacing. Her turn-offs are international military conflicts and the aroma of rosin-core solder.

She was the bachelorette at The Dating Connectionasking questions to Davie Blair, Raguka Singh Soong (Larry) and A. P. Wire. Mistakenly the host believed that she chose Larry, while actually she wanted number three. Even if she cried that there's no way to spend no month on a boat with that jerk, she did win a solid month cruising with him on the U.S.S. Love Tub exploring exotic ports of South Pacific, call courtesy of Wonder Cruise Lines. However her mother stole her tickets.

Larry was extremely happy and lucky to have won a fun-filled month-long cruise, and was looking forward to spending that time with the lovely batchelorette on the ship[2], but his mind quickly envisioned Paradise Lost, when he discovered her mother was on board instead.[3]

Her image appears on a alumni composite in the Eta Omicron Theta sorority, and Larry Lovage comments on her being Barbara Jo's mother.

She, of course talked by sticking "like", "you know", "or sumpthin'" between the words. She is the daughter of Mama Bimbo, and mother of Barbara Jo and Bridget.

Barbara Bimbo has dark hair and blue eyes, and wears prominant earrings and at the studio, a necklace.
