Latest update of the "eternal old man Chicago fixture named John," but unfortunately the Vista in this metaphor to John Lawrence's XP. If you prefer, "bargain/generic brand" or "diet Alston Boyd."

I am a mediocre player who dreams of being the greatest Jazz-Religion-Philosophy-Architecture-etc. 4th scorer of all time, or if I'm dreaming big, the greatest player in the game's history to not be at all good at History, Literature, or Science. In high school I set the HSNCT prelims neg record, with 42 negs and few powers to show for it; as an undergrad I made a repeat performance with 44 negs at the 2018 DII ICT. At Chicago, I have slowly been learning the humbling art of being a team player and making sense of my own impulses.
