The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He weighed 132 pounds on a 5’9 frame.
    In the middle of the night, he set off a fire alarm at a Skate Canada competition because he wanted to see some female skaters without their makeup.
    Because he ‘touched’ on his landing, he was denied credit for the first quadruple toe loop (1986). The honor went to Kurt Browning (1988).
    He retired from amateur skating after chronic knee problems required four operations.

Why he might not be annoying:

    Because his parents were performing ballet in Vienna, he was raised almost exclusively by his grandmother.
    He was able to jump nearly his full height during any program, thus earning him the nickname ‘Jumpin’ Joe.’
    He played the ‘fire’ character at the Salt Lake City opening ceremonies.
    Unlike Kurt Browning, he was able to continue with his backflips.
    He is fluent in five languages.
    He is an accomplished painter.
