Here are some other bits of info about me.
-I'm a sports fan. I follow all the big 4 except hockey (mom hates it so I wasn't very exposed growing up). I have family in Illinois so my favorite teams are the Bears, Bulls, & White Sox. When it comes to motor sports, I only follow NASCAR's Sprint Cup. My fave racer is Jimmie Johnson.
-I'm also a numbers person. Last fall, I averaged the number of letters in the names of all states in the US. I came up w/ 8.24.
-I actually like to speak in online acronyms. For instance, I might say, "IMO, the only good form of precipitation is rain."
-I have a neurological condition called hydrocephalus. I could imagine somebody asking, "Uh... isn't that Greek for water head?" Yes, it is. To sum it up, it's a buildup of excess cerebro spinal fluid in the brain cavity. I have a shunt to regulate it.
-When it comes to computers, I'm a PC guy. I just think it's easier to adapt going from a Mac to a PC than the other way around. I have a Hewlett-Packard DV9410-US notebook.
-For siblings, I have 2 brothers, 1 biological and 1 adopted. My adopted bro just finished 6th grade. His biological aunt is also our family barber and has been since I was a little kid, if not longer.

I'm Justin. Let me tell you my story.
I grew up as a believer, but was sadly under-exposed to Christ. Fortunately, when I went to university, I soon met a man with Navigators.
Unfortunately, not having an automobile makes attending church difficult because I consider myself non-denominational and there are some such churches downtown, but I live on the west end of town. I do, however, read a Bible chapter each Sunday - I just started the book of Malachi - and pray to be as God wants me as often as possible.
