Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Classic Space, Lego MindStorms, Star Wars

My fascination with LEGO began... with my first Lego set, #480, Rescue Helicopter, given to me by my best friend Chuck Altwein, for Christmas when I was 5 years old.

I once built... a huge space station with many ships and buildings, that was worked on and played with every week for a year; an amusing Rube-Goldberg device when I got my first Lego motor in set #404.

Someday I will build... A decent reproduction of Gerry Anderson's Thunderbird 2 (classic).

LEGO is great because... there is no other toy as educational or endlessly innovative.

LEGO fans are great because... they are so passionate about Lego and all its products. Like the product that gives us so much inspiration, they are innovative and imaginative.


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Non-Lego toys exist?

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Web design/dev't, PC gaming, Christianity (Baptist), Reading (esp. Sci-Fi), Mexico, Spanish

My favorite Foods: Anything spicy, especially ethnic foods, such as Mexican or Indian.

My favorite Movies & TV: Thunderbirds, Star Trek, Final Fantasy (movie), The Sixth Sense, North by Northwest

My favorite Artists: Norman Rockwell

My favorite Music: Tish Hinojosa, Glad, Steve Green

My favorite Pets & Animals: Reptiles and arachnids, cats


Words which best describe me: Geeky, dedicated,


I love it when... a major storm hits.

I hate it when... a large snowfall is predicted overnight, and it fizzles.

I can't seem to get enough... time to build Lego with my kids.

I always seem to have enough... things to clean up at home.

I hope I always... build with Lego, follow the Lord, spend time with my children.

I wish I could... travel to the moon or space; be better at building Lego models of real things.

I could never... imagine life without my wife, Nichelle.

I hope I never... disappoint my family.

I wish I hadn't... given Tim Boucher a broken Lego piece in a piece trade when I was in 5th grade.


Believe it or not... I really do have the Ultimate Collectors' Series X-Wing, Y-Wing, and Star Destroyer all in my cube at Kronos, Incorporated.

If I were super-human... I would definitely be a crime-fighter.


More & Less:
  • more Discounts on Lego, less Juniorization
  • more "Use this box for storage", less Lego boxes without compartments
  • more Space sets, less Harry Potter or Fright Knight sets

Rules I try to live by:
  1. Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind. Love others as much as you love yourself.
  2. Live within one's means.
  3. Put family first.
