About Me

Just a little man tryin to fit in God's plan.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Well I've already met the guys in REO SPEEDWAGON, STRYPER, DC TALK, PETRA, SUPERTONES, INSYDERZ, TOURNIQUET, MORTIFICATION, SABAOTH, so I guess that leaves the baseball player with the most consecutive games played ever (Cal Ripken Jr.) and the president who got both the most votes ever and the highest approval rating ever (George W. Bush). And Central High and JMU represent!

One of the best dance/rock bands of the '90s is BACK and is offering their latest project for free download. Check it out right here.

Music:

All time favorites:REO SPEEDWAGON, STRYPER, DC TALK, PETRA, SUPERTONES, INSYDERZ, NEWSBOYS, then dozens of other bands, like TECHNOTRONIC and ONCE DEAD.

Most all Christian metal from the 90's (like HOLY SOLDIER, BARREN CROSS, SABAOTH, VENGEANCE RISING, TOURNIQUET, MORTIFICATION, SERAIAH, BLOODGOOD, Novella, Die Happy, Sacred Warrior, Bride, Guardian, Recon).

I do like some 80's, but only stuff between A-Ha and ZZ Top.

Movies:

All time favorites: SIGNS, BREAKDOWN. Also like classic (made or taking place in the 80s) comedies like BACK TO THE FUTURE and WEDDING SINGER. Also horror, the scarier the better as long as it's good.

Television:

Currently THE APPRENTICE. All time favorites: FRESH PRINCE OF BEL AIR and WINGS.

Books:

STRYPER: LOUD n' CLEAR, by Dale Erickson and Jesse Sturdevant. H.P. LOVECRAFT's EARLY HORROR WORKS and MORE EARLY HORROR WORKS are pretty good too.

the joys of (bicycle) commuting
