JP - I'm sure I've done this for JP before, but when it comes to him, you can't do it enough! JP's my oldest and closest friend from the forum, but that closeness has never been limited to the Hype. He's sharp as a spork, has undeniable wit and talent and a pretty big heart. We've talked for hours and hours on end, either with others or just the two of us and, after eight years, it's never once gotten old. Our friendship is kind of like a chicken, bacon and ranch footlong - occasionally you change up some toppings, but it NEVER fails at being delicious. Really, though, JP's a great guy with a huge personality, and I'm so very unhappy to hear about all of the awful twists and turns his life has been taking lately. He's not responsible for these misfortunes and is certainly the last to deserve them. Nonetheless, he handles them with such composure... he really is one of the strongest guys I know. And I'm proud to have him as a friend.
