Just wanted to give Linus and specially Jon here on the forum a huge thank you for making my bday so awsome!.

 

I contacted Jon earlier this month to see what the chances of getting Linus to sign my keyboard for my birthday was.

 

To my surprise he replied and actually talked to him regarding it and set it up for my birthday eve. 

 

I was greeted at the door Tyler. Met Linus and had edzal even take a picture of me and Linus. 

 

Been waching them for years on YouTube and was so overwhelmed with geek starstruck i could hardly talk.

 

The nite before I thought I should clean my keyboard so Linus wasn't grossed out haha never had time to put all my keycaps back on "which he made a comment about"

 

The morning of while getting my gear ready in my truck for jobs after meeting them I locked my keys in my truck. Due to me being in  lala land. Had to get a local towing company to come and open it for me. Lol 

 

But it was all worth it. Thanks again and keep up the awsome work guys and thank you so much!!!

 

 

Richard

this is precisely why I watch him. his attitude is genuine and honest, and in this world that's harder to find than it should be

 

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

In general the short time I met him I must say that the personality u see on video is who he actually is.
