After attending Sawyer Fredericks’ Hide Your Ghost tour, I can personally attest to his undeniable talent. Sawyer Fredericks provided an entertaining night that was enjoyed by all. Underground in the Valley Bar, Phoenix, the crowd swayed and sang along with his powerful, moving voice. With smiles on their faces and soul in their veins, fans left filled with contentment.

“Simon Peter asked him, ‘Lord, where are you going?’ Jesus replied, ‘Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later. Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may

I didn't think about that! So true! The Hunter brothers would play "ghouls" to disinter bodies for dissection and to secure specimens for collections. Apparently, John Hunter stole the body of the Irish giant O'Brien in 1783, which was suppose to be taken to sea and sunk in the deep water. John Hunter arranged the body to be switched with heavy stones, which was subsequently sunken into the sea. He was able to obtain the body, dissect it, and boiled to procure the bones. There's a portrait of John Hunter which displays the giant's skeletal feel in the background (Mayer, pg. 482).

John Edward Robinson was born and raised in Cicero, Illinois, a blue-collar, Mafia-tinged area on the west edge of Chicago, in 1943. He was the third of five children, and grew up with two parents, an alcoholic father and a disciplinary mother. When he was 13, in the fall of 1957, his mother enrolled him in a five-year academy for Catholic boys in downtown Chicago. That same fall he made the rank of Eagle Scout and flew to London to lead a group of 120 Boy Scouts onto the stage of the Palladium theater. There, he appeared in a performance before Queen Elizabeth II and even met movie star Judy Garland. He was a teenage star briefly, all thanks to his mother, Alberta, who was his biggest supporter. This all went downhill when he went to college to study MRI

JOHN COOK was born in Liverpool on the 11th of September 1851. His parents were inhabitants of the city at this time due to, presumably, his father being contracted to a Liverpool-based ship. John holds the distinc-tion of being the only English-born Cook. Upon his parents’ return to Ardrossan, he was baptised on the 22nd of April 1856. As a boy, he went to school in Ardrossan and by the age of 19, he appears to have left home.

Twenty-seven-year-old Henry Molaison, more often referred to as H.M., and his parents had a tough decision to make the August of 1953 (Ogden). When he was only seven years old, Molaison was hit by a bicyclist and knocked out for several minutes, leaving a large gash on the side of his forehead. It was that accident that caused him to develop seizures, mild at first, but growing in severity. When he was sixteen, he had his first tonic-clonic seizure, or one that affects the entire brain, and ever since then he was having ten or more seizures per day. It made high school difficult, and he dropped out once due to teasing (Dittrich). H.M. eventually went to a different high school, and it took until he was twenty-one before he could get his diploma because of the severity of his seizures. Even his jobs at Ace Electric Motor Company and Royal Typewriter became too dangerous to continue, so he

John Michael Green the author of Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, The Fault in Our Stars and many more! Most recently his book Paper Towns has hit the big screens in movie theaters. Just a couple of years ago his book The Fault in Our Stars, which is also the most grossed novel in 2012, was a movie hit! In Green’s schooling years he was bullied and picked on so he gets the mind of a high school outcast. “Well why did you make such a depressing ending in your book The Fault in Our Stars?” a fan asked him. Green’s response to the question above was along the lines of “This is not a fairytale, this was a book as close to reality as possible. Life is not also going to end happily, but there is hope.”
