Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Trains, Technic, Castle, Pirates.

My fascination with LEGO began... My Mom says that by the time I was three years old I knew every house in the neighborhood that had LEGO, and those are the houses where I would ask to go play. So my parents, in their infinite wisdom, decided they should just get me my own LEGO, so I'd stay home and play! I got my first set for my third birthday, in 1965...

I once built... The Duplo structure that Arnold Schwarzenegger smashed through in the movie "Jingle All the Way". (Actually, due to the way movies are made, I built it about 30 times!)

Someday I will build... A LEGO Roller Coaster, a suspension bridge, and the perfect train engine.

LEGO is great because... It allows non artistic people to be creative, and you're only limited by your imagination.

LEGO fans are great because... They're always willing to help with ideas and suggestions.


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: computer games

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: travel, music

My favorite Foods: I like food!

My favorite Movies & TV: Simpsons, Futurama, sci-fi

My favorite Music: college radio!

My favorite Pets & Animals: None at this time, someday another cat or two.


Words which best describe me: kind, quiet, strange


I love it when... "A plan comes together!"

I hate it when... Something I thought I had figured out doesn't work...

I can't seem to get enough... sleep... :-)

I always seem to have enough... friends

I hope I always... can find the good in people.

I wish I could... learn several languages

I could never... be a salesman or politician

I hope I never... become bitter with the world


Rules I try to live by:
  1. You're only as old as you act!
  2. "The Golden Rule": Treat others the same way you'd want them to treat you.
  3. "Peace, Love, and Rock & Roll"...


Additional comments:

I've been playing with LEGO toys for over 40 years, and I have no intention of quitting now...
