So ya want to know about me huh? Well here's your chance.
Another image of John after a hard night's work
The Geek Formerly Known As John was born John Andrew de Michele on January 2nd, 1972. John was moved
around a lot as a child and finally settled in Issaquah, Washington, the armpit of the Seattle area. John
went to Issaquah High School, and graduated in 1990. John decided to get some 'higher' education, and went
to the University of Chicago. After four traumatic years there, he graduated with a B.A. in Geophysical
Sciences, and a strong dislike of Chicago.
Our hero, upon returning to his home, chose to eschew the life of a drunken street bum, and went in search of
work. Three years, and four jobs later, John works at Cellular Technical Services as a tech support analyst.
You want your tech supported? Go see John.
John could be described as a monstrous combination of Bill the Cat, Dilbert, Dogbert, and a HAL 9000, all rolled
up in burrito-sized packages. John has no social life, and women avoid him like the plague. John works nights,
and is beginning to think his computer is talking to him in Latin.
John has been known to watch too much TV at times, and usually chooses something on Fox or A&E. He also listens
to his music way too loud. His eardrum splitting artists of choice are local bands, Metallica, and
Sarah Mc Lachlan. He also reads a lot of books, and one of his favorite authors is Robert Jordan.
John is strongly atheistic, and is somewhat left-of-center.
This Just In!
John has decided to use the raise that he got in August to finance his bid for world domination as an
Evil Overlord. Coming soon to a third world
country near you.
John has found a woman who doesn't avoid him like the plague. Her name is Dianne and she lives in the great
white north of Toronto, Canada. John loves her more than anything, and she loves him.
Now that you have discovered the Geek that is John, I'm sure you want to go back.
