What does Jon G Do?

Thing Number 1: Christian Guy

A Cross

Thing Number 2: Significant Other of Shannon Mark

Shannon Mark

Shannon Mark is a hip young post-college girl who likes Jesus, Frozen Yogurt, and long walks on the beach (given its sunny, not too windy, and between 70 and 85 degrees F).

Soon, I hope to link to this delightful young lady's future website.

Thing Number 3: Electronics

A Circuit Board

Jon is currently a graduate student at the famous Oregon State Univeristy and is studying analog and mixed signal ciriut design under the infamous Dr. Un Ku Moon. Currently, his focus is in the area of Analog to Digital Converters and Clock Delivery in integrated ciriuts. We'll see how that all goes though...

Thing Number 4: Running

The Art of Running

Jon is one of the many mentally unstable individuals who enjoy a good peacful run now and again. While not a speed runner, Jon is a fan of the long parbolic shaped hill, mainly for the veiw from the top. If you were to ask Jon for a good running spot, he would probobly suggest Neahakanie Mountian on the Oregon Coast.

Thing Number 5: Geography

Simplified Map of London

Since he was young, Jon has been transfixed with the concept of location and the world outside his reach. This love of Mapping and culture has fuled his interest in the science of Cartography, the confusions of human nature and tradtions, and even propmted amature mapmaking.

Thing Number 6: Mountian Biking

A Bike

For many years, Jon G has been amazied at the ability of a bike to multiply the force of the human body for efficent forward motion. While the thrill of going downhill fast is exciting, Jon G really mountian bikes for the challenges of the uphill, the wonder of nature, and the chance to be in the middle of nowhere.

Thing Number 7: Food

An example of Food

To date, no human has lived without ever eating food. Jon G is no exception as he relishes savory morsals such as french toast, peaches, ceaser salad dressing, burnt bacon, clam chowder, white extra sharp Australian chedder cheese, and of course, chicken tiki masala (even better when its at a buffet).

Thing Number 8: The Trombone (and music in general)

The Trombone

Even if just modulation of low-freq air pressure waves, music consistantly captures the attention of Jon G. While playing (with varying degrees of proficency) the Trombone, Baritone, and Tuba, he enjoys the melodic sounds of the French horn, striking symhonies by Aaron Copeland, the rock opera of the Transiberian Orchestra, and the upbeat funk of Toby Mac.

Thing Number 9: Trivia

Trivia

Being aware of world events is a vital tool in modern decision making and triva is just a tool to measure one aspect of this awareness. Whether it's Jeopardy, The National Geogrphy Bee, or even the High Five Challenge, Jon enjoys a good round to competative knowlege recital. He also admires the skills of those who have non-trivial trvia skills such as Eddie Timanus, Ken Jennings, Frank Spankenburg, Mike Baily and John Erickson.
