Everyone has a story!

Justin was the last friend of KC’s that I interviewed.  He walked in late and didn’t really understand what was going on until I explained the situation for him.  It seemed like he didn’t want to but felt that he should since everyone else did.  So Justin started thinking of what was interesting about him.

Justin is an aviation major with a goal of being a professional pilot.  He’s a Flying Aggies member. The Flying Aggies is a group of aviation majors that go on trips and listen to profession pilot speakers.  Justin recently got his instrament rating, which means he can now fly in the clouds legally.

Justin has broken his hand twice in less than two months from each other.  He now has a permanent plate in his hand.  Recently, he got fired/resigned from his bartending job at the Rancher’s Club. 

Justin loves tuna sandwiches.  When he was little, his sister fed him a whole pack of cigarettes and he had to have his stomach pumped.  His sister was also an intern for the FBI and he had to have a background check ran on him. 

Jacob was also around when I interviewed Cory and KC.  He was excited to hear that he was next to be interviewed.  He was quick to give me interesting facts about himself.

Jacob started two philanthropy bike rides.  He rode over 200 miles to support Alzheimer’s and Safe Harbor Homes.  This summer, he finally got on his first motor cycle and it was a Harly Davison V-Rod drag bike.  Jacob ran 10.55 seconds in a quarter mile. 

Jacob is also from South Carolina but came to OSU because his parents came here so he decided to come here.  He met Ziggy Marley at Jerry Garcia’s funeral.  Last summer, for a week, he worked in Stergeous, SD for Biker’s Week. 

Jacob once went on a double date with Cameron from The Real World, but Cameron wasn’t his date.  He said that he wished she was though, but she was a little conceited.  Jacob got to pet the dog from the movie The patriot.  His friend lived behind the owner’s house and they would run back and forth and he waited until they came to his side of the fence.

And finally, Jacob has been to Italy, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia.  He got to go to all of these places because his dad is in marketing and gets to travel everywhere.

I met Cory Reynolds at the same time as KC Jones.  It was one of his friends so I thought I would interview the whole group.  Cory had some interesting things that he came up with.

Cory has played guitar for 11 years and has been in the OSU Jazz Band for 4 years.  He used to live in New York and his brother was born there.  When he was little he fell off of a stool in his kitchen and still has a scar above his left eye to remind him of it.  He also has a backwards checkmark on his cheek from the chicken pox.  Cory also had plastic surgery on his face to get a cyst out from under his skin.  It was right by his ear. 

Cory is very proud that is old pitching coach from high school as an ex-LA Dodger pitcher.  Also that he has an autographed ball of Alex Rodriguez.  Cory has also met Alison Krauss and Nickel Creek.  He once played in a band with a world famous drummer named Gregg Bissomette.  And finally he has been to Niagara Falls.

I met KC Jones outside of my friend’s apartment.  He was taking out the trash when I asked him to tell me a few interesting things about himself.  He had trouble at first but after giving him a few ideas, he got the ball rolling.

KC’s name is spelled with the letters “K” and “C” unlike most of the same names.  He was adopted when he was born by his grandparents.  KC has a total of 6 dogs.  He has two cars, a 1983 truck and a 2006 Honda Civic.  He drives his Honda Civic around town but his truck is back home.

KC also has a brother named Dow Jones.  He all stated in baseball and broke his tailbone while doing so in 6th grade.  KC has won 3 art shows with his various graphic designs.  He has had his two best friends for years.  They met in 1st grade and have kept in contact since.  And finally, he gets hives from grass.
