John is composed of a complex mix of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and chocolate frosting. He was born on the planet Terra (aka "Earth") in the Sol System of planets located on an outer arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. He has opposable thumbs and usually walks upright. He has a bitingly sarcastic (or is it sardonic???) sense of humor and a healthy contempt for double-standards, dishonesty and selfishness. John currently lives and works and eats and poops in the Village of Niles, just outside the city of Chicago. Watch where you step. John also finds it weird to be talking about himself in the third person, so John will now stop.
