OK, here\u2019s a picture of the longest soul patch I\u2019ve yet seen. But it got me to thinking \u2014 pardon moi <\/em>Jeff if you think I\u2019m predicting the imminent demise of cool soul patches \u2014 about styles and soul we\u2019ve had over the years that are now a thing of the past (and good riddance to them). I\u2019ll begin with this:
\nLeisure suits \u2014 I had a forest green one.
\nPolyester pants that hugged the thighs.
\nHere\u2019s Jeff\u2019s soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooul patch.
