YIKES!!! I am going to be so paranoid now when I talk to you. lol... I will be, did I just say that (you know, yeah, yup, etc.)? I think I am guilty of such things now and again. :p
As for Patrick, I have never understood how such book smart people can be so totally STUPID at the same time. It's like, take your nose out of the book for a second and see the world. ugh... I worked with a nurse that was like that. Very brainy and very friendly, but no real common sense to save his soul.
Good luck, Jon
