My friend and fellow Rails developer John Lannon, lead developer at http://resonantvibes.com, was mugged last night while picking up dinner for his wife. He didn’t have anything on him to give to the robbers and they shot him point blank in the chest.
His friends and teammates at Resonant Vibes are raising money to help with his recovery. Please consider helping a fellow developer and a remarkable individual who (not that anyone does) really does not deserve to be in the predicament he’s in now.
Thanks

I’d like to extend my thanks to Chad and everyone else who has reached out to support me and my family in the wake of this incident.
I’m well on my way to a full recovery. I’ve taken some time in the past few weeks to hone my ruby skills a bit. Among other things, hopefully, I will have become a better developer for having gone through this.
Cheers and happy thanksgiving to anyone reading.
John
