Favorite LEGO toys/themes: My Favorite themes are Space, Town, and Trains. The Futuron Theme is my personal favorite on the space side.
My fascination with LEGO began... I loved LEGO for as long as I can remember. I remember inheriting my sisters collection when I
was 4 years old. It has never stopped, only faded every now and then.
I once built... I once built a plane director for the big airliners. After I was at Dallas Fort Worh International Airport, and saw it, I had to build one. I still have it years later!
Someday I will build... A realistic colony and town based on my website adventures.
LEGO is great because... My imagination has never run out of ideas yet, and LEGO always seems to provide a outlet for the worlds in my brain!
LEGO fans are great because... They are all diverse in every aspect, but they all have a love of the brick!
My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Video Games, if that qualifies, or What other toys are there?
My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Music, Video Games, various church activities
My favorite Foods: German & Italian, some Chinese
My favorite Movies & TV: Star Trek, Star Wars, all movies and TV, The History Channel, Modern Marvels, G4TV, BSG (Battlestar Gallactica), Big Bang Theory, Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles
My favorite Artists: Michael W. Smith, ApologetiX, Weird Al, Carman, Petra, Jars of Clay, Third Day, The Waiting, Rebecca St. James, Newsboys, etc.
My favorite Music: Contemporary and Alternative Christian, parodies, Video Game Music, Classical, Soundtracks.
My favorite Pets & Animals: Sammi - our lovable Cockatile and Lou-Lou (Louie or Luise), our African Gray Timmae, Gi-Gi our Green Quaker Parrot
Words which best describe me: Phrase - A Low Key Kind of Guy Words - Ghost, Ecclectic
I love it when... I find LEGO sets for clearance that I like! I find time for LEGO! I get brickplates for cheap. Find LEGO sets with just brick. When people come over to have fun with LEGO!
I hate it when... people lie. When people are not courteous. When I run out of my favorite parts! When people bash SUV's!
I can't seem to get enough... Classic Space Decorated elements! Time to Do Things. Futuron Minifigs. Classic Smiley faces.
Trans-Dark Blue Visors! 12x24 brickplates, 8x16 brick plates, any green bricks!
I always seem to have enough... Useless decorated parts, such as slopes with hideous printing on it. Insectoid parts! Harry Potter minifigs!
I hope I always... will be patient with things, and people accept me for who I am, even though I am very different to most people.
I wish I could... Go to the moon. Order 1,000+ Futuron minifigs for original pricing! Build awesome things like those in LEGOLAND parks.
I could never... run for office because I am too partisan. I could never work for TLC (TLG, LC, LG, etc.) because I would take home half the plant.
I hope I never... have to find out what living without LEGO items would be like.
I wish I hadn't... discovered Credit Cards outside of American Express.
In my craziest moments... I get extremely red! I start speaking everything from the little German and French and Klingon I know of. I do my victory / fat-man dance!
Believe it or not... I am actually a pretty nice guy, and try not to get into arguments!
If I were super-human... I would use my powers to do what is best and what is needed, rather than what I want. I would love to fly around too.
More & Less:
- more Freedom, less Government Intervention, rules, regulations, etc. Taxes
- more Classic Style Lego Sets, bulk bricks at reasonable prices, less Town Junior,
- more walk out /drive up basements, less daylight basements!
Rules I try to live by:
- Treat people as you like to be treated
- Always help your friends
- Follow the rules - its sure beats breaking them and trying to cover it up
Additional comments:
There are a number of passions in my life, one of the biggest would be the brick. If there is one calming element in my frantic life, it would be time spent with the brick, building, sorting, playing, etc. I have never found anything else that could compete with this outside of my wife , but that is another avenue of life. She didn't even think I was weird because of my obsession with the brick. Then I knew she was the one! : )
I for one, am greatful that LUGNET is here, because it gives me a chance to see LEGO maniacs around the world, and some of the jaw dropping models that people create. Thanks Todd & Everyone!
