Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Trains are now my favorite. I used to love Castle, but now I am focusing my attention to Trains and a few Town sets.
My fascination with LEGO began... When I got my first LEGO sets in the mid-70's. I loved those Town sets and then the early Technic. I used to look at the ads on the back of comics and wish I could afford those sets.
I once built... A trigger mechanism device using some of my technic pieces and some simple electronics. It knocked over dominos and had a start and stop LED that was triggered by the last domino. I built it the seventh grade (around 1981) and there is a picture of it in my seventh grade annual.
Someday I will build... I want to display all my trains and town sets in the basement. Hope to do this soon.
LEGO is great because... the quality is great and the possibilities are endless.
LEGO fans are great because... they know what a really cool toy is!!

Words which best describe me: quiet, strange.
I love it when... I get home from work.
I hate it when... I get all these old unheard of LEGO sets on clearance or free and then wake up realize it was just a dream.
I can't seem to get enough... sleep and vacation.
I always seem to have enough... work.
I hope I always... have time to spend with my family.
I wish I could... retire today!!
I could never... work in an office.
I hope I never... work in an office.
I wish I hadn't... thrown away the boxes and instructions to most of my old LEGO sets.
In my craziest moments... wear shorts.
Believe it or not... I used to be athletic.
If I were super-human... I would be Spider-man
