"Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life." Terry Pratchett



Let me give you the highlights!



“Who conquers himself is strong.” Lao Tzu



I'm a strong Christian. My faith, and the faith of my future wife and family, is very important to me.



"Do not be overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Romans 12:21



I'm a geek. (Uber)



“Try not. Do, or do not, there is no try.” Yoda



I'm creative. (or at least I like to think so)

I'm a reporter-editor-digital marketer in my day job.



"Keep buggering on!" Winston Churchill



I'm pretty quirky. (Better than being boring)



“Of all the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most.” Ozzy Osbourne



I'm a big reader and a movie buff.



“It’s only after you’ve lost everything that you’re free to do anything.” Tyler Durden



I love quotes (probably obvious...)

I drive a TERRIBLE car.



“The storm of reeds is loud till you go through them.” Scots-Gaelic proverb



I'm saving up for a house.

Um...

I like gadgets, the human skull (really, take a look at it, fascinating piece of work by our Creator), reading and writing the news, cigars, wine and good spirits and all-things-geek (well, most things).



That's enough to give you the brief picture. If you want more, read on:



“If you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Sherlock Holmes



I believe in living with passion.



I am passionate about my faith and saving grace. I am passionate about my family and my friends (I have lots of "extended family," people who are so much more than friends).



“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Proverbs 9:10



I am passionate about music: it moves me, makes me joyful, makes me sad, excites me, makes me peaceful, makes me conduct symphonies in my car, makes me play air guitar (badly) as I walk down the street, makes me tap my feet like a poor extra in a Western, makes me want to share it with others.



“Kaplah!”



I pour a lot of passion into other areas of my life: my work as the managing editor and online marketing director of a newspaper, my writing, causes that I believe in... I'm passionate about the books I read, the movies I watch, and life in general.



"Love not what you are, but what you may become." Miguel de Cervantes



I want to find a passionate woman with whom I can share my passions and hers. And I look forward to passing our passions on to our little peoples someday.



I am looking for someone who loves me for both my strengths and my flaws -- as someone put it, "Shouldn’t we hold out for the person who doesn’t just tolerate our little quirks, but actually kinda likes them?" I am looking for a woman who is quirky and clever, who is encouraging and who wants my encouragement, someone to keep me on my toes, to keep me in line, to challenge me and to strengthen me. I believe God is the center of a marriage, and I want to find someone who understands that as we grow closer to God we grow closer together. I hope God has picked out someone for me who is artistic, intelligent, curious, a reader, musically-oriented (any violinists out there?), who plays chess (!), but most importantly a woman of faith who finds happiness in many different things, who brings me joy and who takes joy in me.
