Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Pretty much all of it. Emphasis on Star Wars, Space and Castle.

My fascination with LEGO began... I got a 592 Fire Engine for Christmas when I was 6.

I once built... When I was a kid I built a "robot" using pretty much every piece I had. Boats for feet, rainbow colored, the works. Even had a remote control.

Someday I will build... A castle and village spanning about 10' by 16', a 6 foot tall Gundam Mobile Suit, lots of other grande schemes.

LEGO is great because... You can use your imagination to create whatever you desire. That simple plastic brick can be part of a spaceship, castle wall, mansion...anything.

LEGO fans are great because... We all come from different walks of life and would probably otherwise never meet, let alone socialize and become friends with each other. The brick brings us all together. A very special thing.


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: ATVs, guns (are not a toy), action figures back in the day.

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: lego, videogames, movies and music, drinking excessive amounts of alcohol, shiny things

My favorite Foods: Anything beer flavored. And my mom's cooking.

My favorite Movies & TV: Too many to mention, and TV rots your brain. But the Simpsons and CSI since you asked.

My favorite Artists: Lots of dead guys.

My favorite Music: I'm pretty much eclectic. I like it all except the real urban rap and some various other stuff.

My favorite Pets & Animals: two dogs, Buddy and Arlo. Anything with scales is also cool.


Words which best describe me: cynic, pessimist, stubborn, hot tempered, creative, resourceful, aggressive


I love it when... Things actually look positive and go well. That hasn't happened in a long time for me, so it's nice to have it again.

I hate it when... plans fall through...I'm late...I run out of a certain color/type of brick...I'm made to feel like nothing

I can't seem to get enough... lego, money, time

I always seem to have enough... things to do, work, ideas that don't work, problems

I hope I always... play with lego

I wish I could... just let shit go. That and buy a winning lottery ticket.

I could never... used to be things I couldn't do, now I say what the hell? Do it anyways. The worse that'll happen is you end up dead.

I hope I never... stop playing with lego...unintentionally hurt someone...feel that way again

I wish I hadn't... Unfortunately, way too many of these to list.


In my craziest moments... I recite movie and Simpsons quotes to fit any situation. "The man's a menace. Always drinking, starting fights. He's always hanging around those kinky strip clubs. Y'know, the ones where the men take their clothes off..."

Believe it or not... I opt for not, but that's me.

If I were super-human... If? 'Scuse me? But seriously, I'd want to be able to travel through space and time at the speed of thought. That and being able to fly would be sweet.


More & Less:
  • more common sense, less stupidity
  • more Political "Incorrectness", less Politically correct people
  • more intelligent humans, less George W. Bush

Rules I try to live by:
  1. Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way.
  2. It doesn't get better on it's own, you have to do it for yourself.
  3. Don't talk about fight club.
