After getting involved in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program in 2006, I realized that so many of the guys who play quizzo would make great role models for the young people of Philadelphia. Then, when I heard that there is a critical shortage of Big Brothers in the program (the waiting list for Little Brothers who want a positive male rodel is rather long), I felt the need to do something. (While we may look for more Big Sisters in the future, it was felt that right now the biggest demand is for men in the program.)

After meeting with several people from BBBS, we agreed on a reasonable goal: I want to get 100 males involved by the end of the year. Of course, it will be impossible without your help. I will have more details on the program and how you can get involved later in the week. This program has become an extremely positive part of my life in the past year, and I want it to be a positive part of yours as well.

Dunno if you read the comment left under the Year in Review November, but I will quote it here, then offer my reaction. It is in reference to this:
Be advised that your above reference to Mr. DiMeo in the City Paper awards was done purely out of humor on the part of A.D. Amorosi of the Philly City Paper and was NOT actually part of the CP Awards. Thus the reason it was not published and only posted online.

For you to state this as if it were a material fact, is not accurate. The City Paper has recently clarified that it was indeed posted online only for humor and meant no harm to anyone involved. It has since been complely removed by City Paper, yet you seem to mislead your audience into thinking it was actually part of the CP awards.

We request that you add clarification to your online statements and remove the innacurate statements completely.

If you wish to discuss this matter, feel free to contact me directly at (215) 399-1346, as I am currently representing, Mr. DiMeo as Plaintiff in other related litigation.

Thank you.

Mine are as follows:
1) Get better organized. That is my resolution every year, and it doesn’t usually work out so well.
2) Get back into comedy, and record at least one rap song.
3) At some point during the year, have a date #2 (with the same person date #1 was with, if possible.)

And of course there is the one that I will be filling you in on shortly, since you will be helping me with it. Anyway, post your New Year’s Resolutions below and I’ll be back in the early afternoon.

A quick reminder for all responsible males in the area who want to do their part to make Philly a world class city: I’ve got your New Year’s Resolution covered. I am undertaking the most ambitious project of my life and I will not succeed without your help. I don’t need your money, all I need is a little bit of your time to achieve the lofty goal I have set for myself. I will have more details at the start of the New Year.

Alright, I’m starting work on the World Famous Johnny Goodtimes Year in Review. While I do work, why don’t you check out a couple of past year in reviews. Ah, good ol’ 2005, when JGT went Punkin’ Chunkin’, went to Intercourse, and tried to advertise on a baby. Let’s also take you way back to 2004, when Russians went rubber woman rafting, Johnny had his laundry stolen by a crackhead, and JGT dated a hot Jersey girl.

JGT is kicking it in Virginia for a few days, but the show will go on. Dark Horse John will host tonight at O’Neals and the Bards, and the Inquizzinator is gonna be in full effect manana. As of right now, I plan to be back on Thursday.

I have no access to the Philadelphia Metro today, but I was supposedly gonna be in the Tuesday thru Friday editions. So if you pick one up you’ll see me. Maybe.
