About meHappily married with two beautiful daughters. I live in the Philadelphia area, where I am a programmer for a private financial company. I love bicycling, and I seem to enjoy non-fiction more than fiction, though I'm a sucker for the Spenser novels.

About my libraryI use library thing to track books I own, have read, or wish to read. I use @toread to keep track of books I'd like to read, @reading to track the books I'm currently reading, and @read for those books I've read. The books I own have an @own tag, and the rest of my tagging is simple subject type stuff.

GroupsBooks that made me think, Capital Markets, Children's Fiction, Crime, Thriller & Mystery, Happy Heathens, Humor, Japanese Culture, Purely Programmers, Science!

Favorite authorsKen Henderson, Joe Kurmaskie, Steve McConnell, Christopher Moore, Robert B. Parker (Shared favorites)
