Arjewtino
http://www.arjewtino.com
Arjewtino is a Reformed Jew born in Argentina who swears he is a citizen of the U.S and has the documentation to prove it. He has lived in DC since before you were in diapers (more specifically, 1999) but grew up in the cultural wasteland known as Los Angeles.
He has been busted for playing Minesweeper at work, hugged Alyssa Milano when he was 12, and was rumored to be the starting shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
His favorite animal is not a panda. He likes to yell at the microwave to hurry up. He aggressively shuns Jews for Jesus, has swum in the Potomac River, and ranks the following as his greatest achievements:
1. Striking out 8 batters in three innings in a Little League game.
2. Getting a B in 11th-grade Chemistry.
3. Making a Republican cry at a party.
