About Me


Ask me about substitutionary atonement!!! I'll be happy to explain it.
A few words to describe me: Husband, father, friend, huge music fan, particle technology specialist (I know I'm an engineer geek), amateur five star chef, a vacuum at first base, pro road cycling fan (rare in the US), college basketball geek, amateur photographer, and the list can go on
I have been an on-going alternative music fan for over 25 years, since I was 18. I certainly like most well-produced, well-mixed alternative Christian music. I also like quality music even if the lyrics are less than favorable (like Modest Mouse, The Cure, Depeche Mode, etc.) I cut my teeth on early MTV and a local independent station, 97X - The Future of Rock & Roll. I am always looking for quality "new" music in both the Christian music field and secular music field (with a leaning toward alternative, indie, punk pop, emo, or techno).
