Get to know somebody

David Harkins, born in Nashville, but do not remember living there. My family moved when I was two years old. Saved at age six, living in Texas, while my dad went to seminary and pastored a small church. Parents became missionaries to Korea. We moved there when I was eight. I stayed there until I finished high school. Went to Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC, near where my parents came from, which is Union, SC. Visited Union often while in college, staying with family. Met Cheri there. We were married after college and lived in Greenville. Moved here to go to graduate school at UT. Thought we would move back after that, but have not yet. This Tennessee thing might work out.

Hidden Talent(s): inventing knots and various tangles
I know nothing about: Buckling swash
Once lived in: Wyatts Grove, not too far from China Grove, but not the one in the Lone Star State. If you are there, you are probably lost. When you ask for directions, remember that they pronounce it “Wites Grove”
Don't want to live without: blue jeans, warm showers
Absolutely won't eat: don’t know yet
Nickname(s): don’t go there
Favorite song to sing in the car when I'm alone: It is situational – sometimes “Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road”.
Pet Peeve: Less than half a cup of coffee in the pot, scorching on the burner. Go ahead, pour it out and make a new pot. I will do what I can to help drink it.
Best recently read books: Radical, by David Platt. It is. We should be.
The Shack. I especially like the part about wisdom and judgment.
Color Apple should make an iPod: ONE campaign Red
Favorite aroma: wind on a stormy beach
Least favorite aroma: roofing tar, paper mills, dead skunks in the middle of the road
