Where's the John?

Ever noticed how action heroes are always named John? All of the cool action heroes. Well except for Michael Knight, he is really the coolest. Anyway, John is a popular name. I'll show you what I mean. Ever watch the TV show '24'? Kiefer Sutherland's character is named Jack Ryan, and in this case, Jack is a nick name for John. His name is actually John Ryan. That's a weak example though. How about Keanu Reeve's in 'Point Break'? Johnny Utah, yeah that's a cool one. Let's see what else, oh yeah, 2 Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, 'Commando' he was John Matrix and 'Kindergarten Cop' he was John Kimble. He is one of the ultimate action heroes of all time. Another one would be Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo. Oh yes, lest ye forget. Ooh, ooh, ever see any of the 'Die Hard' movies? John McClane at your service. In 'Terminator' who is going to lead the resistance against the machines? John Conner. See what I'm saying? Other notables would be Johnny Quest, Johnny Mnemonic, Number Johnny 5 from the 'Short Circuit' movies. You know, the lovable, faggy robot that doesn't want to get disassembled. Hell even Superman's earth father's name was Jonathan Kent! So do you see what I'm saying? I think I know why we name our heroes John. Our real life heroes are named John. Look, there's John F. Kennedy, John Glenn, John "Bonzo" Bonham, Johnny Unitas, Johnny Cash, and "the Duke" John Wayne. In honor of Michael Knight I'll have to do a list of great Michaels next.
