About Me

He has showed you, O man, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8 ...borrowed from the NIV (thanks Zondervan!)
Ulysses
Alfred, Lord Tennyson

... my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.
Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,--
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

I will soon be digitizing music bits and putting them online on my music spot; for now, I have "El Choclo" on, done by one of my bands Electrical Spectical (Electrikal Spectikal)in which I play guitar and Beth plays pianoCheck it out! http://www.myspace.com/electricalspecticalblackorchidsgfbeac h
