About Me

I'm a pretty boring guy. I play games, mainly computer and xbox. I read all the time. I have a B.A. in history, and I am working on my M.A. I also like to write, at some point I would like to get something published. I am married, and will be a father in April. And most of all I am a sports freak, I love all sports, for the most part.

My Interests

History, sports, reading, sports, writing, sports, video games, sports, watching movies, sports, watching sports on tv(wishing I was at the stadium), and spending time with the wiff...er I mean wife. Did I mention sports?

I'd like to meet:

Most the people I'd like to meet have been dead a long time. Jesus would be at the top of the list. Then people like Abraham Lincoln and U.S. Grant. Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin. Alexander Pushkin and Edgar Allen Poe. Babe Ruth, Wilt Chamberlain, and Jim Thorpe. Some from other countries, Winston Churchill, Alexander the Great, Julius Ceasar, and Napolean Bonaparte. As for people still alive; Micheal Jordan, David Eddings, Andruw Jones, Peyton Manning, Colin Powell, Micheal Vick, Bobby Bowden. And I would have liked to have met my wife's father, who unfortunately passed away before I met her.

Music:

I like a little of everything. Way too many to list here.

Movies:

This one is pretty much the same as music. My all time favorite movie is Glory with Matthew Broderick, Morgan Freeman, and Denzel Washington.

Television:

Mainly I only watch sports on tv. Some exceptions are; Supernatural, MXC, Over There(the most awsome show out there!), anything on the History Channel, and whatever my wife is watching if I don't feel like leaving the room.

Books:

Any and everything by David Eddings(and co-writer/wife Leigh), history books, Alexandr Pushkins works, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, and Edgar Allen Poe.Oh and the Dragon Lance books.
