The message on his answering machine is: "I''m a bit depressed today so I''m not answering the phone. Please leave a message after you hear the shot." This is 56 year old, caricaturist, John Callaghan''s black humor at its best. He is an eccentric who, despite being severely crippled in a car accident, gallops around the streets of Portland on his wheelchair, with orange hair and stylish glasses, fighting relentlessly to be accepted as a valued human being.

Besides being a talented musician, he is mainly famous for his amazing ability to draw sarcastic caricatures that are published in magazines - arousing anger towards him. He holds his marker with shaky fingers but sketches, with extreme confidence, a fist that will hit someone in the face.
