("Hideout" is a place, not an action. So, it's "JFH"... not "JFHO" ;) )
  • Thing You MUST Know: I'm often very sarcastic, so please don't take it personal; and I get easily distracted at live concerts and in large crowds (and a little social anxiety), so your grace is appreciated if you try to get my attention at one and I seem like I'm in La La Land! :)
