Mr. John D. Stumblefumble, a rather extrordinary fellow. He was a cousin of Jonathan Menchacovits. Remember him; the guy who said he saved U.S. postal patrons two cents on every postage stamp?
John D’s claim to fame was his ability to decide a task of gargantuan proportions. He would decide and then decide and continue to decide, and then decide some more. His decisions never ended.
He would always, without doubt, always keep changing his decision; not only on different topics, but changing the same decision on the same topic. He was simply too decisive. He understood the “yes” and “no” of any decision. His was obsessive decision-making, oscillating from this to that decision with consistent regularity.

John D’s claim to fame was his ability to decide a task of gargantuan proportions. He would decide and then decide and continue to decide, and then decide some more. His decisions never ended.
He would always, without doubt, always keep changing his decision; not only on different topics, but changing the same decision on the same topic. He was simply too decisive. He understood the “yes” and “no” of any decision. His was obsessive decision-making, oscillating from this to that decision with consistent regularity.
He did not have any difficulty with any of his decisions.
He was “The Advice Guy” you went to, to help you make your decisions. His was strictly a cerebral effort. No difficulty in his decisions since he would never do any of his decisions. By not doing, he was at his best.
His surname is certainly appropriate yet, for the longest time, he thought to legally change his own last name. He decided on a myriad of names, but none more appropriate than Stumblefumble. He never decided on one more appropriate.
So, to this day his name remains John “Decide” Stumblefumble. One’s faith and belief is significantly better than John D’s way.
