About meThere are a lot of "former"s attached to me. I'm a former UAW worker, former deacon, former college student, former Teamster, former pastor, etc. As for "currently", I am currently the father of three, the husband of one, and the lobotomized slave of none.

About my libraryMy library began in childhood and the teen years with an enormous comic book collection, the remnants of which can still be found in my library today. In the teen years, I discovered fantasy and sci fi novels, and began to branch out from there. I have a deep and abiding interest in history, partly from never ending surprise at what people will do with, for, and especially to each other. I have a lot of RPG and religion related material, which is easily understood once you see how some gamers are devoted almost religiously to their game system, and realize that most religions are simply deep-immersion role playing games. As for the rest, work and school account for some, personal interest for others and, well, reading breeds more reading and the list of new and exciting topics just keeps growing.
