my name is john and i am a nice guy*

animated johneklund.comI am John Eklund. This is my site and I am your host.

My birthday is 10.15.76.

I'm married to a wonderful woman who recently found that I did not speak to that fact on this page. That situation has been rectified.

I am a Marketing Director who enjoys what he does. I work full time for one of the largest packaging machinery companies in North America, and I sold the company I used to own, which was called Inexplicable Productions.

I have an MBA from Louisiana Tech University.

I have two dogs - a legacy dog named Ani (Ah-knee) and a newish puppy named Vivi (Vih-vee). I used to have a dog named Stormy but now my parents keep her.

I wish for things and I have epinions.

There used to be a site devoted to love, but it has since had it's jersey retired.

I graduated from LSUS in May of 1998 (Magna Cum Laude of course) with a Bachelor's in Marketing and have enjoyed some of the best and worst of what life has had to offer.

I enjoy watching TV, working out, reading, and of course building web sites.

I frequently listen to podcasts whilst I drive and work.

I have made a hole-in-one on Golden Tee.

Real Genius is one of my favorite movies ("It's a moral imperative..") along with Ferris Bueller, Pulp Fiction, and Good Will Hunting.

Trappistes Rochefort 10 is my favorite beer (trust me, you've never had it), Ronald Reagan is my favorite President, and Nirvana is still my favorite band.

I'm currently on version 6.0 of JohnEklund.com.

I like spicy mustard over regular mustard, Chips Ahoy over Oreos, and Coke over Pepsi.

I don't like bugs. I think bacon is the perfect food. I tend to overtip.

I get in the neighborhood of 120 to 150 emails a day.

I placed at state in wrestling. I was the Outstanding Marketing Student of the Year. I made a 640 on my GMAT.

My desk is usually a mess. I'm allergic to cats. I like to shred things in my paper shredder.

I had a corner office at an established corporation. Now I'm in a loft.

I invest in the stock market, dream in color, and use FireFox.

I make lists, I shop at Eddie Bauer, and I think Dogbert is cool.

I own an iMac and an iPod Touch.

The person I admire most in life is Dan Gable.

I use Stanley tools, I floss regularly, and I keep my receipts.

I am always late, I overuse exclamation points and I slouch at my desk.

I use a Franklin Covey Planner, a Retro 51 Tornado pen and combine it with David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) philosophy.

I have an odd fascination with JB Weld.

I think in random thoughts and I don't work linearly.

Oh yeah, I also work crossword puzzles with a pen.
