David Schultz

 

1. Byline name: David Schultz

2. Born where/when: Santa Clara, California; 1970

3. Family stats: Father, mother, two brothers, two nieces, four nephews and a lawn.

4. First job & the scars it left: Micky D's.  Fading beauty marks from the "nuclear patty presser" and the "bun toaster of perpetual disrepair".

5. Current Church: New Life Center, Bridgeton, MO

6. Favorite Bible character/story & why?  David:  and it's not just the name.  The guy screws up more than your average person, and still goes on.

7.  Favorite scripture & why? “Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeks and intermeddles with all wisdom.”  (Proverbs 18:2)  I have only myself to blame for my ignorance.

8.  Currently in CD player: In the bedroom: Elliot Smith, Figure 8 (Tears at the soul.  Real experiences from someone who has more experience than I would ever care to.); In the living room: Medeski, Martin & Wood, It's a Jungle in Here (Great jazz with incredible organ and rhythm that makes you move.); At the office: Suzanne Vega, Nine Objects of Desire (Passion - restrained and funneled into brilliant lyrics with subtly engrossing melodies.  There's no music as satisfying as that sung and played by writer.); In the car: NPR (In-depth news and intelligent talk.  Whether you like your tax dollars supporting it or not, they still have the best stories. Especially commentary by Kevin Kling & Bailey White.)

9.  Book I'll read someday: The Art of Warfare (Why not? It sits on the shelf mocking me.)

10. Most prized possession: My right arm.

11. Product I'd endorse: Toyota (Three cars; 620,000+ miles).

12. Phrase I overuse: "Is this a great country, or what?"

14. The one person living I'd like to spend dinner with: You, if you're paying.

15. The one historic figure not named Jesus I'd like to spend dinner with: Isaac Newton (The guy who invented calculus in his mid-twenties must make for a peculiar dinner party.)
