A Little Link Here, A Little Link There...

Music and Musicians

Rich Mullins - an awesome singer/songwriter, recklessly abandoned to Christ and relentlessly honest about it

Mitch McVicker - a funny, wistful, poetic, and spirited young singer/songwriter, one of Rich's compadres - and a serious fan of those IHOP pancakes! (you'd have to have been there hehehe)

Eric Hauck - another singer/songwriter and compadre of Rich - quite the adventurer too... if hitchhiking across the US or riding a motorcycle all over just to go exploring sounds fun to you... if you like to watch a barefooted guy with a really long ponytail and beard brushing the top of his instrument playing the cello, guitar, or almost anything else you could hand over... this guy is just way cool!

Pierce Pettis - a gifted, thoughtful folk songwriter whose work frequently deals with questions of faith...you might have heard some of his songwriting work if you've listened to Garth Brooks' album Sevens, where Garth recorded Pierce's song "You Move Me"...Pierce's albums are hard to find, but well worth the effort. the link is to his recording label, which is also home to several other excellent artists, including the Vigilantes of Love.

This Train - uhmmm...love 'em or hate 'em, they're just flat maniacal :D - honestly hilarious and hilariously honest.

Ken Medema - this guy is...amazing. blind since birth, but when you hear him performing one of his songs, you almost have to wonder if he sees better than all of us. saw him in performance at the fall 1997 Virginia BSU retreat, where...suffice it to say the passion, honesty, vision, and beauty of his work gave me a real good kick in the gut.

C. F. Martin Guitars - makers of fine guitars, including my own D-15, a six-string dreadnought of solid mahogany.

Rockin' With The Cross - an excellent tab and chords site, with both contemporary and traditional praise/worship songs.

Cool People and Groups

Gordon Zaft - a fellow traveller on the road to that reckless abandon to Christ...and a computer genius to boot!

Preston & Sara Coles - one awesome musician and worshipper of God + one lovely, gentle, warmhearted worshipper of God = one wonderful couple + one adorable little T-Man :D!! I was sorta there when these guys met - yes, they've always been this cute & cool :)!

Michael Rew - what, you want me to describe this guy?!? sheesh...that's too hard. just go read his poetry already! i mean his stuff even has meter and rhyme, i can't do dat babes ;).

Brennan Manning - if you wondered where this "ragamuffin" thing that Rich Mullins picked up on came from, here's the man to take it up with. Some people may have issues with his honesty,
but it takes a real Christian to own up to being nothing before God and yet everything to Him - which is what Mr. Manning's specialty is.
I say we could use several more Christians like him on the planet :).

The Legacy of A Kid Brother of St. Frank - established to further truly compassionate ministry to Native American peoples, which had been so close to Rich Mullins' heart,
through a variety of music and arts programs and spiritual development.

St. Alban's Chapel - the Episcopal student center of Louisiana State University. One of my friends is in the process of revamping their website, so keep an eye on it!
St. Alban's and the Canterbury Club have been a wonderful new part of my life at LSU.

Saturn - hey they make great cars, like my little sugarplum (a 1994 SL1 automatic, plum colored).

IRC Folks

Jon & Cara Guidry - a sweet and fun couple of folks known as acadiel and neonsock on EFnet IRC got married in June 2000 - he's a fellow Louisianian, and she's learning more of how to be one of us crazy Cadiennes every day :D, while they're also busily bringing up two reeeally adorable little ones - c'est si bon, mes amis!

Chris - Krynshaw on IRC - a computer graphics designer and all-around cool guy.

Dave - RoadSplat on IRC...funny and squishy, what more do ya need :D?

Chris - Aerostorm on IRC - the hockey nut.

Glenn - saintsfan on IRC - aaaah it's a crazy pharmacy student, everybody look out (rofl!!!)...another one of my fellow Louisiana folks.
