Jeff Huo is easily one of the nicest guys on the planet. He's remarkably funny without really being aware of it, sweet-natured, very thoughtful, incredibly loyal...and utterly brilliant.

And he's one of my Warders, which would also make him either incredibly brave or just plain crazy. What am I saying? Of course he's crazy! He's pursuing his MD and PhD all at the same time at the University of Michigan! He's stark raving crackers! Which probably explains why we get along so well - birds of a feather and all that.

Jeff got himself into this mess on April 24th, 2000, after many months of yapping on ICQ, posting in RASFWRJ and some good natured e-mail ribbing. Now the poor man is stuck - and he seems to like it that way.

Jeff is a great friend to have around, someone fun to spend time with, and he always tells the best stories! In spite of the fact that we live pretty close to each other, we don't get to see each other nearly as much as we'd like, and I find myself missing him often. Curse his terribly busy schedule! I'm very happy for the times I do get to see him, his company is absolutely delightful.

Everyone should be lucky enough to have friends like this, the kind who listen with an open mind, advise with a loving heart, and generally just soothe the soul.




Some Darkfriends may recognize the border design as the cover of the book Jeff presented me with at Easter. He has great taste!
