Patrick is really my kind of maniac. He's a voracious student of life, a jack of all trades, and far more interested in living creatively than correctly. We haven't lived near each other in about 16 years, but we make a point to get together and dither nonsensically as often as possible. When I haven't caught up with him in a minute, whatever he's up to is always a surprise. It comes out of left field, and then totally makes sense. Please come listen to us talk about an unreasonably broad swath of topics on which we have basically no authority.
