John Winchester Part I The Mechanic From the Family of Mechanics Or Not So Simple Beginnings John, that flawed wreck. That absent father. That stubborn fool. That bastard who put so much on his sons.

‘When life hands you a lemon, make lemonade.’ I don’t know who the first person was to ever say those famous words. But you hear them every now and again. Sometimes they come in the guise of a Monty Python song (Always Look On The Bright Side of Life), a Charlie Chaplin Song, made popular…
Who is Samuel Campbell, the man we love to hate? Many cheered when he died, some wanted to dance on his grave. Who is this man who claims to act for family but betrays his kin? Is there a way to understand what he did? Let’s see.

I don’t need my main characters to be perfect. Perfection is unattainable by human beings so I don’t expect it. We should strive for perfection in all we do and how we behave for in that we’ll achieve the exceptional. Sam and Dean are flawed and more often then not their flaws make them accessible…
Embarking on describing why I love the younger Winchester turns out to not be as easy as I first imagined it. After thinking about what I love about Dean, it came only natural to say a word about Sam. Ah, Sam… There is some ridiculous quality to it, some pathetic element as well, when you…
