Joe and Johnny were first brought together as friends when they shared the struggle through Algebra II. They became kindred spirits in high school as they spent hours working on video projects, analyzing their slim chances with countless girls, and philosophizing on tennis courts. They saw each other only twice during their four years of college, but serendipitous forces led them to New York at the exact same time in 2003. They now share an apartment in the East Village.
