How did you get here?

About Me

My name is Michael. I'm 41 years old and I live in Northwest Ohio. I am currently going through some life changes that will affect not only me but my four children. It's my hope that anyone who is going through some tough times will take solace in the fact that they are not alone. There is a heavenly creator above who formed us and loves us. It is through his son Christ Jesus that we can receive forgiveness by his redeeming act of sacrifice on the Cross of Calvary.In the short time I've been here on Myspace I have discovered lots of great music out there. I really like a variety of different musical styles depending on my mood. So take a moment to stop by and say hi. God Bless, MichaelBTW if you know my full name you can find me on Facebook!

My Interests

For me its all about God, my kids, music and hockey. Working 12 hour days several days a week and weekends doesn't leave much time for anyone else or anything other than my kids. Between the homework and the domestic chores of being a Mr. Mom I'm pretty busy. I would love to travel if I could afford it. If I ever won the lottery I would like to road trip though all of the 50 States. From there I like to venture overseas to the Australian Zoo to pay my respects to the late Steve Irwin. Overall when it comes to traveling, if I am blessed enough to share the rest of my life with someone then we have to go to Hawaii. I have always wanted to go there but only with the one I love.

I'd like to meet:

As far as people I'd like to meet, well Jesus first and foremost. NHL legend Bobby Orr comes to mind as does Phil Esposito. Actor Adam Sandler seems like a good guy in person. Jorge Garcia who plays Hurley on LOST seems so down to Earth. Sci-fi's Ghosthunters Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson are just some cool people who want answers. Our philosophies and beliefs may be different but I have the utmost respect for those guys. Even though he has past on, I would have liked to of met Johnny Cash. I was never a pill popping addict like J. R. but I too have struggled with my faith at times in my life just like Johnny.

Music:

From Frank Sinatra to Iron Maiden. I don't have one particular music style I prefer. I like 80's New Wave, Heavy Metal, Christian Rock, early 90's hip hop/rap and Alternative. A few of my favorite recording artists all time are U2, The Clash, Van Halen (with David Lee Roth), KISS and The Dead Can Dance. Oh BTW I once was a college DJback in the early 90's. My radio program was called Retro 80's Sunday Nites with DJ Mykul Scott where I played 80's New Wave and 80's Alternative. I also did the "Real Alternative", which was a Alternative Christian Rock program where I played stuff like the Dance House Children, Daniel Amos, Adam Again, The 77's, Breakfast with Amy, as well as many more. Sigh....I miss those days.

Movies:

Passion of the Christ, Platoon, Saving Private Ryan, Pulp Fiction, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Ferris Buellar's Day off, The Empire Strikes Back. Romantic comedies to curl up with that special girl would be How to lose a Guy in 10 days, 50 first Dates, When Harry Met Sally and Pretty in Pink.

Television:

LOST, Ghosthunters, Ghosthunters International, The Amazing Race, Survivor, Gene Simmons Family Jewels, Survivorman, Destination Truth and lots of stuff on the Food Network.

Books:

"Every Man's Battle:every man's guide to winning the war on sexual temptation one victory at a time" by Stephen Arterburn & Fred Stoeker. "The Single Dad's Survival Guide" by Mike Klumpp. "Two Becoming One: Experiencing the Power of Oneness in your Marriage" by Don & Sally Meredith. And of course The Bible. New international Version.

Heroes:

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Our Armed forces and service personal and The Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin.
