Final Thoughts

John's Final Thoughts
Well, well, well. So I'm the first member of the Jury. I'm just so grateful that I got to play this game. I've been a huge fan forever and ever and ever. And to have made it this far for 24 days is just an incredible experience. I'm just sorry that I didn't go further; I know my friends and family will be disappointed, but just to let you know I've been thinking about you all. Mom, Dad, Kristina, Katrina, Brittany, Zachary, Katie, Emily, Angela, Kris, Dan, Tracy, Sue, Connie - hopefully I didn't forget anybody else - Jarret: I thought about all of you while I was gone. I couldn't have done any of this without you all. . . .

I don't think I could have done it any different than I did. Everyone who knows me knows that it's hard for me not to take a forward position on things, and I think that put me at risk. But you know what? I stayed true to myself, I played my game, I did the best I could. I hope I made the Nebraska Cornhuskers proud.

Mom, Dad, I love you guys more than anything in the world. I was really missing you guys the last few days, so I'm okay with being voted out. But I wish I could have done a little better. You won't be able to retire, Mom, I'm sorry. But I made the game, and I made the Jury, and I did really well, and I'm very proud of myself. Just be happy for me and don't be mad at me. I'm going to go eat really good food and I'm just going to chow down. My abs are incredible but I can't show you right now. Anyways, I'm going to go, I'm really hungry and I'm going to go eat really, really good food. I will talk to you guys later. Peace. Go Big Red.
