I was working for a magazine in Seattle called Construction Data. On my first day on the job, McGoo walked up to me and said
"I have your new business cards."
He handed me a box of the cards.
“Jack Brummet. Circulation marketing and feature article writer? Jack?," I asked.
“I like that, yeah. Jack. John is a pussy name. Jack’s the name of a man's man. These are constuction guys. Do you want to sell magazines, or be be some fop named John?”
I became Jack. And I still am.
