My name is Joseph John Baldwin IV, but everyone calls me Jay. :)
I live in Pataskala, Ohio, about 20 miles east of the capital (Columbus).
I work at
World Harvest Church,
where I am the Director of Web Technologies.
I love to laugh and be stupid (by stupid, I of course mean awesome!). I also
have telekinesis, and am the coolest person wherever I go! haha.
I love my school. I love my job. I love
my Pastor. But above all, I'm in love with
the God that gave me life, the life He gave me, and I aspire to make
Him smile with it. :)
I'm totally a geek. I have to have all the latest tech gadgets and toys.
If you ask me on the spot, I'll tell you it's because of my job -- my interest in
technology keeps me current thereby making me a useful employee. While that's
true, it's also the only way I can put a positive spin on my impulsive need for
complicated electronics. lol. Nah... I'm not that bad... I ensure I
at least have a good reason (and the money) before buying things.
I love the Internet, Android, and Google. I tell everyone I'm going to work
there someday. :) In my opinion, these two things are what our generation
will be remembered by in history books, and I want to be a part of it if I'm permitted.
:)
My greatest personal dream is my family... to love them with all my heart... to
be a man they deeply love and respect... to be a loving and caring husband to a
God-fearing woman, and an attentive, loving father to children who grow up in love
with their Savior. I want to lead my family to
my Jesus.
When I fall in love, I love thoroughly and hold back no good thing. Love makes
me weak, and I couldn't live without it. I believe the truest form of love
is a gift of yourself -- a promise -- from one person to another, and the lifestyle
by which that promise is lived out.
I LOVE to play pool. I have earned a black belt in Tang Soo Do, and even instructed
othes in the art, but I don't really practice anymore. I also like tennis
and racquetball. My favorite TV shows are House M.D., The Mentalist, Fringe, and Lost
(while it was in production). I like to read also, but I REALLY have to be
interested in what I'm reading for it to be thoroughly enjoyable. Otherwise,
I get bored. My favorite books to date are the Bible (particularly Psalms),
the Harry Potter series, and the Twilight Saga. I am obsessed with movies.
My friends joke that my collection rivals Netflix or Blockbuster, haha.
Certainly my entire self cannot be summed up on one page. This site is filled
with information about me and my interests. Or you could check out the
contact page and talk to me directly. Enjoy. :)
