Introduction	"I'm not to be trifled with. That is all you ever need know." OK, so about me, seriously. You should know that I love Jesus, because that's the most important thing; and you should know that I love Lana, because that's the second most important thing. Goals in life? Well, let's see. It's a little bit different now. For a long time, within the ultimate goal of glorifying my Father in everything I do, my biggest goal was to marry Lana. Spending the rest of my life with her is not a "Oh yeah, I kinda want to", it's a "I'll die if I can't." Good thing I married her on May 23, 2008. As I promised her on that day, I want to love her the way Christ loved the church, and I want to not merely father her children but be the best dad God allows me to be. My second major goal is to subcreate, to tell great stories that point people to God. I have, for literally as long as I can remember, had a passion for writing; and I want to write for His glory. Whether I'll eventually be able to do that as my sole vocation -- who knows? It would be cool. But only He knows what's ahead for me and my lovely wife as we venture out into the Holy Wild together.

If you drive on a parkway why don't they make the whole plane out of that?

Somehow I don't think a plane made of concrete would be very aerodynamic.
