Owen Trivia

Here are some trivial facts you might not know about Joyce and I. Just for fun. Who knows we may have a trivia contest some time if we are speaking in your church....?

We have been with Liebenzell Mission USA and out in Micronesia since 1984 - a little over 24 years now.

Joyce's favorite cake is angel food, while Dave's is triple chocolate. However, Joyce would rather have a birthday pie than a birthday cake. Joyce's favorite ice cream is Bluebell Peach and Dave's is Baskin Robbins Fudge Brownie.

The earth coordinates of our house here on Guam are 13.31.39.75 North Latitude and 144.53.30.71 East Longitude. You can see our house very clearly with Google Earth.

Joyce is currently reading The Kite Runner and Dave is reading Old Testament Theology by Bruce Waltke.

Both of us are on Facebook and Joyce also has an account on MySpace. Dave likes to play Scramble and Joyce likes to upload pictures.

The Owen's used to vacation in the late 60's near where the Cundall's lived so it is possible that Joyce and I may have actually seen each other many years before we met at Biola University. We met at Biola in the Fall semester of 1976, started dating in 1978 and married in 1979.

Our favorite vacation place (and one of the most affordable from Guam) is Bali.

Joyce enjoys playing the accordion. Dave has a ukulele on his wall for decoration but he can't play it.

Dave's favorite book of the Bible is Genesis and Joyce's is 2nd Corinthians.

The subject we most like to brag about: our grandkids Titus and Courage.

Dave's favorite thing to do with the PIBC students (besides teach Bible) is playing basketball. Joyce's is baking cookies.

I know this is all critical information. But who knows, it may benefit you some day.

Hi, Just stumbled over your Guam Blog. I'm a former Guam resident (12 years!) and my mother-in-law still has a home in Dededo. You may enjoy visiting my "Guam Experience" Squidoo at www.squidoo.com/guam_experience (and my other Squidoo lenses --most of which have pics from my time on the island -- such as my lens on Guam's monitor lizard -www.squidoo.com/varanus_indicus !)

Your commentary on your blog brings back fond memories of my time on the island (I used to hang out at the Campus Ministries center at UOG).

Best regards,
Dave Gardner (aka "EditorDave" or "Fanihiman")
