      • About Me:

        I like to ask, "what if...?"

        I love Los Angeles.

        I'm adventurous, at times to the endangerment of my hiking friends.

        I know part of almost every song, but never all the words nor the artist or the title.

        I work long hours, but I know what I'm doing.

        I make incredibly bad first impressions, but after some time spent with me, people usually find me to be entertaining, compassionate, and well-intentioned.

        I like ice cream all the time.

        I am good at solving problems and brainstorming ideas and solutions.

        (I never can seem to write something that truly represents me - any suggestions?)

      • Who I Want to Meet:

        People who will put up with my eccentric ideas & my forementioned "What if..?s." People who laugh and can hold their own in a conversation with someone who always directs the conversation back to themselves (me). Someone who is up for an adventure!

      • Bwarie reads me like the book that I
        sometimes am....from the South Bay
        to the Valley he is a friend that I can
        count on for many things: ice cream,
        lots of food, drives, understanding
        about the nature of the political
        beast, clown-shaped cookies, car
        trouble, loud music, ovens, and lots
        of laughter. We love it!

      • So I read through me last testimonial
        and I felt like I was too harsh on
        John. Just wanted to feel
        better...thanks!

      • John is a red ant. And in a world
        filled with black ants it is so much
        fun to see him interact. Most of the
        time he makes an ass out of himself,
        but every now and then he tells Dan
        that he'll ask for his autograph
        because Dan is DATING someone famous.
        John is wonderfully motivated and
        noble in his desire to give back to a
        city that he believes "shaped who he
        is." John wrote an f-ing book, but
        then he doesn't submit the cover art
        to Amazon.com. Here's to a wonderful,
        secretive, but 100% honest and real
        (dork, sometimes), inspirational,
        funny (looking, sometimes) friend. I
        am happy to have met John (especially
        AFTER he wrote his book so I didn't
        find myself tarnished in it).

      • John was a large part of my youth. He
        kept me laughing. He probably taught me
        how to keep people laughing. There are
        so many good memories that I have of
        him...so much history there.
