Tom Johnson In a bustling town like Phoenix, Tom Johnson is an oddity: The Guy Who Never Left: "I grew up here, I went to school here, I went to Arizona State University, where I studied both creative writing and then studio art. And ASU is where I met my future wife (funny enough, I actually had to 'meet' her through a mailing list for Rush – but it was only because we both went to ASU that I met her, otherwise it would have never happened). Married in 1999, they have two children. A dabbler with the bass guitar, Tom's maintained a series of well-regarded sites over the years, and recently claimed The Versatile Blogger Award for his work here at Something Else! Reviews.

"OKAY, HERE's what I learned from Tom Cruise. You have a day, a bad day. The dog gets off its leash, the wife is on your back and won't stop calling, you've lost your keys, the dry cleaner has lost your best suit, you're stressed to the max, your pulse is racing. What do you do? You hum the theme from 'Mission Impossible.' It works!!"
