I knew that Cook (known as "Officer Matt Cook" to those in the know) was a good guy the minute he agreed to call me "Artie" despite the fact that it's a totally unfitting and, let's face it, pretty lame nickname, just because I asked him to. He is also one of the warmest, kindest, most modest people I know despite the fact that he has thoroughly whooped my ass at arm wrestling, frisbee, poker, pool, email writing, singing, and U.S. News and World Report liberal arts rankings. Add to this the fact that he actually LIKES watching "Sex and the City", his endless patience when explaining the nuances of NFL rules, his impeccable taste in indie rock, his constant compassion and thoughtfulness, and his legendary, Napoleon Dynamite-inspired dance moves, and you have one truly amazing and, dare I say, rockin' dude.
He also makes some mean Buckeyes. If nothing else, you HAVE to try this kid's Buckeyes.
