We approached and asked for an autograph.  I apologized and asked if we were intruding.  He was very appreciative of the gesture and immediately started chatting and telling jokes. 

By the end of our 5 minute conversation, my girlfriend had his phone number! 

P.S. to Todd:  As soon as he returns from filming in Africa we intend to bring him to Buca di Beppo for dinner.

From Todd:  Thanks, Ray!  Paul is one of my favorite comedians and I'd love to meet him!
