VO-BB - 20 YEARS OLD!

[patfraley]

I'm grateful to all who nominated me for the "VOICEY" Lifetime Achievement Award. Wow. Woody Allen once said, "80% of success is just showing up." I showed up. Seems like yesterday I was doing guest security guards, rat dogs, and villains at Hanna Barbara. Of course, you know this means my career is totally over. Actually, I couldn't lose. As I reviewed those nominated, the judges, and those who won, I celebrated the victory of being blessed with the opportunity to teach many: Jesse Springer, Kara Edwards, Michelle Dunphy, Bob Souer, D.C. Goode, Adam Behr, Julie Williams, James Alburger and Penny Abshire. Also, thanks to Bettye Zoller, my judge. I'm so pleased the Rolex I sent you didn't turn your wrist green before you voted.

So I guess I spend the rest of my career trying to figure out what to do with all my money.

Fondly, Pat Fraley

ha, the best part of that pic, Pat. The bills you're throwing are all clearly singles. Was that your prize money?

Congrats, sir.

Jeff,

Well said. However, Pat, I wish you the very best in the future. Somehow, I don't think your career is completely over.

I think it should have been named a mid-lifetime achievement.

Fraley ain't even half done.

Congrats.

P.S. It wasn't a Rolex, it was a Rollx

Congrats Pat!

Your workshop in Boston kicked my career into gear AND reconnected me with DB who introduced me to the VO-BB. Not a day goes by in my studio that I don't have a reason to thank Pat Fraley, the Teacher

I am grateful to you all for your kind words. I am blessed by our relationship, if but "virtual" with some. Please know that "Life is Grand," and made grander by your generous comments.

Gratefully, Pat

[Yoda117]

Of course we like you Pat... that's why we're letting you take all of us to dinner and drinks at VOICE 2008.

I for one, don't feel too bad about this seeing all the money in the pic.

Apparently, my picture with all that money flying in the air has turned on me like a pork taco. You're on! PF
