This Must Be H--v-n. I'll Buy A Vowel.
I don't like to quote myself because when I do my wife throws things at me, but reading Pat Sajak's truly excellent posts here, I couldn't help reflecting back on an interview I did a few years ago with Big Hollywood's wonderful John Nolte on his now-defunct website Dirty Harry's Place. John asked me about my conversion to Christianity and I said:
I don't believe that life is some kind of game show, you know, where you guess the proper name of God and Pat Sajak opens the door and lets you into heaven. I mean, I'm sure Pat Sajak is involved in some capacity, but I don't think you're going to hell if you disagree with me or anything like that.
Now, as my theological understanding has deepened, I've come to understand: live a life of faith, fortitude and virtue and Pat will open the door and let you into Ricochet. Good deal!

Andrew, I'm always happy to referenced (and complimented), especially by someone I admire. While I'm not qualified to be a Heavenly Doorman, I'd gladly be the Ricochet Gatekeeper, if I could just nudge that pesky Long guy out of the way.
Incidentally, as someone fascinated by vowels, I note our last names each contain two "a's", and no other vowels. Hey, give me a break; I'm in the Northeast, and it's 100 degrees.

Pat, I think it was great compliment too. Bob Barker didn't pop into his head 'cause we don't what door Barker is going to be standing in front of. Maybe the other one. :)

I only have one job here, Pat. Please don't take it away.
