Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Minifig sets, especially Trains and Star Wars, but I also dabble in Technic/Mindstorms.

My fascination with LEGO began... I've been fascinated by Lego for almost as long as I can remember. My parents bought me a big box of basic bricks (Lego, not Duplo) when I was three years old, and I've been hooked ever since.

I once built... HMS Belfast, An aircraft carrier, a car ferry, a jumbo jet, a Harrier jump jet, concorde, various tanks, robots and spaceships from many Sci-Fi movies (Star Trek, Star Wars, The Black Hole, etc), K-9 from Doctor Who, a working cable car, an AA recovery truck, a London bus, a Britannia class steam loco, the list goes on and on...

Someday I will build... a scale model of the Vertical Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center... if I ever get enough bricks!

LEGO is great because... "It's a new toy every day" as the old advertising slogan went, and it's such a great stress reliever after a hard day at work!

LEGO fans are great because... they're people who have never lost their sense of wonder, creativity and fun!


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Tabletop wargames, board games, silly card games.

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Church, choir, movies, anime, sci-fi, comics, hanging out with my wife & like-minded friends.

My favorite Foods: Oki-nomi Yaki!

My favorite Movies & TV: Star Wars, LOTR, Aliens, The Matrix, Babylon 5, Xena, Wallace & Grommit, The Simpsons, The Muppet Show, Evangelion, FLCL, anything by directors Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Joss Wheedon, Ang Lee and Hayao Miyazaki

My favorite Artists: Olivia De Berardinis, Ken-Ichi Sonada, Masumune Shirow, Yoshiyuki Sadamoto

My favorite Music: Abba, Sam Brown, Sheryl Crow, Eden Burning, Jennifer Knapp, Jean Michelle Jarre, Kirsty MacColl, Cerys Matthews, Paul McCartney, Moloko, Muse, They Might Be Giants, Travis, Wierd Al Yankovic, film soundtracks


Words which best describe me: Kind, patient, outspoken, honest, blunt, deeply silly.


Rules I try to live by:
  1. Mark 12:28-32 (Get a Bible and look it up!)
  2. Never get involved in a land war in Asia.
  3. Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line.
