If you could have lunch with anyone, who would it be?

               Ansem, so he could discuss his explanation of the existence

              of God.  If it had to be a guy that's alive, I think I would

              choose Jim Koch-  what a brilliant mind.

What are two things always in your fridge?

               Brie and Diet Mountain Dew

What are your hobbies?

               Newest hobby is making maple syrup; I like anything that I

               can create from nature, and of course sipping new coffees.

What is your favorite dessert?

               Blueberry pie-I know, kind of boring, but delicious when it

               hits your palette.

What is your favorite Childhood TV Show?

               Leave it to Beaver...I like watching reurns--the "Beaver"

               always cracked me up. I also loved the Dukes of Hazard:

               Just the good old boys, never meaning no harm, in

               trouble with the law since...you know you can finish

               the song.

What is your favorite book?

                Heaven is a Place on Earth by Dr. Michael Wittmer and

                Freakonomics by Steven Levitt

What is your dream vacation?

                Germany, in the month of October, I heard the cathedrals

                are beautiful that time of year:)

What is the most listened to song on your Ipod?

                "A Long December" by Counting Crows

What is something you have always wanted to do, but haven't?

                Shoot a moose...for all you animal crazies, my wife

                is a vegetarian, so back off--we balance each other out.
