Today was Pat's 20th Birthday, and it got me thinking..."What was I like at 20?"

Well....this is what was happening in the world at that time:

• Chevy introduced the IROC-Z Camaro
• Ronald Reagan takes oath for second term as 40th President
• Coca Cola introduced "new coke", which flopped miserably
• Rock Hudson died of AIDS; the first major start to fall victim to the disease
• Madonna goes on the road for "The Virgin Tour"....LOL...Madonna and virgin in the same sentence.
• Sand Francisco 49ers beat the Miami Dolphins in the Super Bowl
• Edmonton Oilers won the NHL Stanley Cup
• Top movie was Back to the Future

What was going on in my life?  Earlier in the year (my 19th year)

• Just like Pat, I was living with my parents (LOL)
• Just like Pat, I was working part time at a couple different jobs
• Just like Pat, I was trying to determine what I wanted out of life

On my 20th Birthday, I was in Technical Training School for Security Police for the United States Air Force......

So Patrick, as you go forward with your life, I wish you luck, love, and support; and understand that I know exactly what is going on with you...
