Pat
says, "I
married the love of my life in
1998,"
and I believe him. He and his wife are sickening because
they're so "googley-eyed" with each other, and they're not
just showing off for me either. I hear that's the way
marriage is supposed to be. Honestly, I've never seen a
happier couple. Strange that I would be so proud of their
love for each other. Go figure. Girls, if you think there's
a chance ... forget it. He's a goner and loving it. Guys, if
you're looking at Laurie and thinking ... "Hmmmm," consider
this. Would it be worth a colonoscopy with a drum stick?
Don't answer that!

and Pat on their wedding day.

Now
please look closely at the picture below. What do you
notice?

"Sitting
in" on his wedding night. Weak!
Hmmmmmmmm.
Thinking
back, I've done the same thing myself.

Pat's a
real fishing nerd, too. He loves it, and tosses in a line
anytime, anywhere he gets a chance. Here he is below
displaying his "fresh" catch of the day.

When
Pat first joined the band in 1993, we went to Japan. His
hair was long and he had a slight "musketeer/buccaneer" look
about him, with a thin mustache. Some Japanese lady told him
he looked like Columbus. Add to this his constant goofing on
a southern country-ass level. Greenspoon dubbed him "Goober
Columbus." We all thought it was great, and I started
calling him Goob out of camaraderie. It wasn't until 2 years
later he finally got through to me that he hated that
nickname. I hadn't realized it because it was a term of
endearment from me, but I stopped calling him that
immediately once I understood. I do hold it in reserve,
though, for any future irritation that may be needed. You
really do need to see him put on a baseball cap sideways and
do his Goob routine. Barney and Andy would be proud. (Okay,
okay. Yes, he really caught the fish above.)
