SEMPER REFORMANDA: You want to investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances.

I thought it might be wise/helpful to establish my ethos, explaining who I am, where I've been, and what I'm about (including my weirdness and the nickname "Gunny").

First, I am a sinner saved by grace to be a child of God. Consequently, I am now simul iustus et peccator, simultaneously justified and sinner. (Read more on my theological perspective.)

*Full Resume* (pdf format)

One of many QUIRKS: I enjoy & use movie quotes.
As such, I will more often than not use movie quotes as blog entry titles. There are extra points if you can guess the origin (and I encourage you to be the first to post such in the comments section). As a hint I will list all referenced movies below (in alphabetical order). Note, citation doesn't necessarily entail endorsement of the movie, but more often than not it will.
