Favorite LEGO toys/themes: In no particular order: Town, Train, Castle, Pirate (especially Imperials), Paradisa, Promotional Sets, and Technic/Mindstorm (RCX all the way!!) and Harry Potter, Batman, Indiana Jones, Spiderman, occasional Starwars

My fascination with LEGO began... When I got my first set at 10 (1986)

I once built... Current MOC designs include: LRT, Silver Bullet (Metroliner) Engine, white monorail train, a fire hall, police station, a couple of houses, and a Church (in Dec/2001). Jan 2002, I finally finished town hall complete with clock tower... I have put out 3 displays for train events, and hopefully in the near future put out a few more.

Someday I will build... A decent Train Layout...perhaps a nice Airport a few other things up my sleeve...???

LEGO is great because... you can design your own world and have Minifigs live in and act out in that world you created... (GO Minifigs!!!!) Even Without the Minifig factor, just coming up with ideas in your head, and applying it to brick can be not only rewarding (creatively) but also very relaxing and stress-reducing.

LEGO fans are great because... They share my enthusiasm.....if a whole lot of others share in my interest, how can I be pigeon- holed into thinking LEGO is just for kids.....I guess I'm a big-kid at heart!!!!


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Is there any good non Lego Toys??? ;)

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Computer - like to cruise the web looking at Lego Sites!! :-)

My favorite Foods: Pizza, Burgers, and the occasional meal of Bangers, Beans and Mash

My favorite Movies & TV: Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Monday Night Football, the occasional Leaf Game (NHL)

My favorite Pets & Animals: Katie the Dog (RIP), George the Rabbit (RIP), and Ellie the Cat


Words which best describe me: stocky, dark-haired, and quiet


I love it when... I win an on-line auction on Ebay featuring lego

I can't seem to get enough... LEGO!!! I am truly a LEGO "freak"

I hope I always... have my LEGO collection.

I wish I could... never worry about my financial situation

I could never... NEVER and I MEAN NEVER throw out my LEGO collection or allow anybody else to do it....

I wish I hadn't... blown a lot of my money on LEGO


In my craziest moments... over pay on the Airport Shuttle on an on-line auction...man, I just had to get it!!!

Believe it or not... there was a period in my life where I didn't think about LEGO (and even thought I was "Too old" for it!!


More & Less:
  • more more room for lego, less space for other things
