If you have ever met my little brother John, you are better because of it. He is basically the most genuine, nicest and funniest person on the planet. I’m not exaggerating. Just look at him… how could you not love that beast of a man? Happy 22nd birthday, John. I love the crap out of you.

(How in the world was this picture taken before his 22nd birthday? What is he going to look like when he’s 45?!)
In honor of John’s birthday, I just have to tell you this story:
My brother is now living in Jackson Hole, WY and after working for 3 weeks on a gondola lift, is now working at a pizza parlor. After working there for about 2 weeks, the owner decided to go out of town for a month and leave John in charge! Seriously?! Okay so John is in charge of keeping the supplies stocked, ordering beer, and pretty much running the whole place. (by the way a lot of famous people order pizza from this place, John has served Justin Timberlake and Garrison Kielor.)
Well… of course, while john is running the place, the cheese shredder breaks. They can’t make pizza with solid cheese! (At this point I think, okay go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of shredders and start shredding…) John’s brilliant solution was to go to another pizza parlor and TRADE BEER FOR USE OF A CHEESE SHREDDER. And it worked. He saved the day. God Bless John Mahoney.
