Interests:
I love spending time with my family. I have a terrific wife and four great kids. I am a voracious cinema buff. I love any and all movies, but if I had to narrow it down I would definitely be in the sci fi/horror/fantasy category. I am a hi-def DVD snob. I don't want to have it first, I am willing to wait for the highest quality. I have a broad interest in music ranging from classic rock, new wave, easy listening, and classical with just a pinch of country for flavoring. I have above average computer skills and an interest in the latest technology. I am a fierce supporter of libraries, reading, and higher education. I love a good history documentary and write fiction in my spare time.
