Happily married, grandpa, nerd, worship minister, and tinkerer.

I like books, plants, coffee, and music.
I knew I was playing too much Oblivion when I got out of my car at work and saw morning glories and I almost reached out to pick them so I could mix potions later.

My daughter’s sister in law realized much later that the reason the optometrist didn’t understand what she wanted was because she pronounced ‘tortoise’ as ‘tor toyce’

What about one called the “Git’r Dunn”?

I love Davis’s commentaries on the Psalms and his book The Word Became Fresh.

"Is there no virtue among us? If there be not, we are in a wretched situation. No theoretical checks--no form of government can render us secure. To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people, is a chimerical idea." - Madison

We were also watching Signs, the part where that arm reaches out and grabs that kid, and the two ladies in front of us jumped so bad their popcorn looked like it exploded in front of the screen

I spent a chunk of my early career covering efforts to criminalize filming the police. That should bother people. I get that law enforcement faces scrutiny. But if you want a taxpayer-funded gun and badge, the public has a right to see how you use them.

My wife and I were just listening to early Brooks & Dunn on the way down to visit her dad yesterday, talking about how timeless they still sound.

I just retired The first Toyota I have ever owned, a 2005 Corolla, last year at 468,000 miles. Easily the best best car I’ve ever ever owned in my life so far. We now own a Toyota Highlander and a Toyota matrix as well.
