To my last, longest and favorite roommate in college. Sure it was rough with him being a smoker but I had my own bad habits. Twenty-five years ago we became roomies against all the conventional wisdom…hey, we were 19 then, we knew everything! Life was easier when I was so smart, today I don’t know jack. Paul definitely settled in before Christmas Break by installing a rather large Iron Maiden poster to counter all my Alt Rock stuff.
The photo above shows Paul with what I feel is the best gift I’ve given him since Metallica. A personally autographed photo of NFL Hall of Famer, Dick Butkus. As I mentioned back in the Fall, I got to meet him while we were in Las Vegas. The nice people at Field of Dreams picked out something Paul would love…Dick holding back a half dozen Packers.
