Marital Status: Married to the hottest woman known to man! Her name is Brandie and she is so fine! I know - I married up.
Pets: I used to own a Japanese Terrier named Eric… but we had to put him down after a skateboarding accident. Don't ask me about it…. It brings up bad memories but now we save on electricity.
Job Status: Director of Publications and professional NinjaDancer
Car: Jeep Compass (We named him Magellan)
Education: Bachelors: Major in Biblical Studies, Minor in Practical Ministry
Hobbies: Reading, writing, traveling, listening to music, studying random information on Wikipedia, and twirling my noodles with a fork and spoon.
Pet Peeves: The squeaky sound that Styrofoam makes, the texture/smell of money (honestly, how many people put coins in their mouth and don't wash their hands after going to the bathroom? Gross!), Sandpaper (for real the Devil probably has a throne made completely out of sandpaper,) and impatient people (why are you in a hurry anyway? Trust me you're not that important.)
Thing you MUST Know: I hate sexuality and anything pertaining to it in movies! It annoys the bejeezus out of me. It's pointless and ridiculous! People need to keep their flippin' clothes on and go worship Jesus! I also am big on the Church being different then the world. If you were to line me up with people who are saved and unsaved would we look/act any different? I hope so. Being a Christian doesn't make a person better but by God's grace it should propel us to live holy! Just sayin'…
Guilty Pleasures: Dancing… It's the best thing in the world to wear a sweat band, tube socks, biker shorts, and Walmart orthopedic shoes and just go dancin' to some Family Force 5! That'll win people to Jesus.
Favorite TV Shows: Law and Order (Original only. Go McCoy!) Cold Case, Chopped or anything on Food Network, The Misadventures of Flap Jack, and the Switchfoot Podcast!
Favorite Movie: Braveheart, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Singin' in the Rain (Don't judge me!), Sleepless in Seattle (I'm for real - don't judge), Nacho Libre, Disney Cartoon Movies, etc.
Favorite Actors: Paul Reubens! Just kidding. Jack Black, George Clooney, Brad Pitt…. Hollywood is in need of Jesus.
Favorite Books: Bible: Genesis and Romans, Boy's Life, Swan Song, Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven But Nobody Wants To Die, The Heart of the Artist, Irresistible Revolution, C.S. Lewis books, and anything by Roald Dahl.
Favorite Cartoon Characters: Brak, Rocko, witchdoctor.com, Cow and Chicken, Zim and Gir, Carl Fredricksen, Flapjack and Captain K'nuckles, and Felix the Cat. (Looking at this list I've realized I watch the really twisted cartoons.)
Favorite Bands: Switchfoot, Jon Foreman, Skillet, Relient K, Delirious?, U2, Ruth, Eisley, Five Iron Frenzy, FF5, David Crowder Band, Hillsong, Gungor, Ray Charles, The Rocket Summer, Louie Armstrong, Mae, Leigh Nash, Phil Wickham, Mukala, MuteMath, Watashi Wa, Plankeye, Leeland, Louis Prima, Nat King Cole, Myriad, Paper Tongues, Robert Randolph Band, Johnny Lang, Sanctus Real, Sufjan Stevens, World Wide Message Tribe… and more.
Favorite Live Shows: Switchfoot, Delirious?, Relient K, and Skillet.
Favorite Ninja Attack: 3 easy steps. Step 1: I cut a whole in a box. Step 2: I put myself in the box. Step 3: Somebody opens the box. Then you turn into a tiger and strike!
Favorite Food: Pasta! Pasta everything! If I can twirl it then it will probably be awesome.
Favorite Fast Food: McDonald's Breakfast! Taco Bell, Rusty Rooster Café, and Popeyes!
Favorite Breakfast Cereal: Waffle Crisp (You ever wonder what Manna looked like? You'll find it in this cereal with Maple Syrup!)
Favorite Drink: Mountain Dew Livewire (Curse Pepsico. For removing it from Atlanta!)
Favorite Candy: 5th Avenue. It's like a Reese Cup slapped a Butterfinger and told it to act right!
Most Embarrassing Moment: I have a problem - I have no shame so I struggle being embarrassed without thinking it's funny myself. But I'll go with the time my brother in law, who is straight Latino thug, first saw our bedroom, he looked at our bed and said, "So Ryan, where do you sleep?"
Little-Known Super Power: The power to change ethnicities. I gained this power at NinjaDancer school.
