Subject: HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW...?: A John O'Keefe Fairy Tale

Once upon a time, after a long, hard day at school, Jackson, Jesse, and Johnny O were unwinding in the North Shore Public Library. Jackson had gone on another rant and Jesse helped him set up a website that didn't exactly make fun but, rather, made silly of most of the odd people in the school... including the bouncing bundle of joy himself, John O'Keefe!

As soon as everything had been set up, Jesse incessantly poked Johnny O for several minutes until he turned around, with a hand raised in preparation for impending whoop-ass. Instead, a sentence on Jackson's computer screen snagged his attention: "Yeah, so John O'Keefe only has one testicle."

Johnny O lunged at the monitor, holding it with both hands and stared at the words on the screen. As Jackson and Jesse giggled and snorted and outright just laughed, Johnny O made a statement so utterly shocking that it was inevitable that it would be repeated sooner or later in another online form:

HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW I HAVE ONE TESTICLE??!!



This phrase was shouted, like a scream from a kinky howler monkey. As well, Johnny O had said, "How many people KNOW..." instead of "How many people think...," which gave the two meddling fools good reason to be suspicious. However, the effect on the general public was far greater. The moment Johnny O let out his absurd cry, nearly all typing in the Internet Access Area of the library halted completely and a really old guy coughed quite heartily for the occasion.

Don't worry, John. Shortly, I'll be posting stories of how I nearly broke my nose twice (one on a band trip a few years ago and one on that NASA trip a few days ago), how I fell up the stairs and broke my footy, and, yes, even the busted tooth story. I'll try digging up a funny Jesse story or two, as well.
