Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Mindstorms, Star Wars, basic bricks
My fascination with LEGO began... as a kid in the late 60's & early 70's. Many of the bricks used then are still being used by my kids today.
I once built... architecturally detailed buildings.
Someday I will build... my own coffin made of legos.
LEGO is great because... of durable and fully interchangable parts; a simple basic system with limitless design potential.
LEGO fans are great because... they are curious and fun.
My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: electric trains and racing sets, science toys and die-cast cars
My favorite Hobbies & Interests: history of science & tech, computers, contributing to wikipedia
My favorite Foods: Pizza & "ethnic," e.g., Italian, asian, middle eastern, Indian
My favorite Movies & TV: eclectic - from trash (bad cop shows) to educational (PBS, Discovery)
My favorite Artists: Yves Klein, Jenny Holzer, Grant Wood, John Singer Sargent, Dutch landscapes
My favorite Music: eclectic: from Ska to Sinatra; Moby to Mozart
My favorite Pets & Animals: cats, dogs, lizards, insects
Words which best describe me: contradictory - conservative, yet liberal; laid-back, yet serious.
I love it when... I'm playing with my kids.
I hate it when... I have to deal with bureaucratic crap.
I can't seem to get enough... time to read newspapers.
I always seem to have enough... observations on the absurdity of life.
I hope I always... will be curious and tolerant.
I wish I could... be more patient.
I could never... be mean to kids.
I hope I never... forget that I'm renting space on earth from today's kids.
I wish I hadn't... screwed off so much as a college student. Learning is so much more fun than partying.
In my craziest moments... I binge eat gummi bears.
Believe it or not... I'm a licensed attorney.
If I were super-human... I'd visit Mars.
More & Less:
- more peace, love and understanding., less ignorance and hatred; money spent on armaments and military forces.
- more education and technology available to everyone for free on the Web., less business entities greedily hording intellectual property rights.
- more energy efficient means of transportation., less parking lots and highways being built.
Rules I try to live by:
- Treat others the way you wish to be treated.
- Your mind is like a parachute - it only works when it is open.
- carpe diem - seize the moment.
