My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Nolan Ryan. I saw him pitch quite a few times and what an honor that would be. The game has changed a lot since he retired.JK Rowling would be most excellent as well. If I could have 1 hour in hour home to look through the boxes of background material for the Harry Potter world it would be even better.I think it would be pretty darn cool to meet Jesus too and pick his brain over a cold brew. He drank wine, so why would he not drink a Shiner?
