Location: California E-mail Address: BLPJ57D@Prodigy.com LEGO/home page URL(s): The SwazzleWorks - pages.prodigy.com/Swazzle (under preliminary construction) Marital Status: Trying my damnedest to avoid that evil contraption. Children: See above. Occupation: Artist On R.T.L (A.T.L) Since: December 1996 # of Sets in LEGO Collection: ~ 100 # of Unopened Sets in Collection: ~ 20 # of LEGO Pieces: This I do not know. For those who demand an answer: many. # of LEGOfests Attended: 0 # of LEGO Theme Parks Visited: 0 First LEGO Set: I don’t remember, my grandfather sent a few from Germany around 1974. I was heavily into Webble Wobbles at the time you must understand. Favorite Theme(s): Aqua, Space. Favorite Set(s): Black Knight. Bring back beaked helms and removable breast plates you cads! Favorite Piece(s)/Minifigure(s): Black 2x2 inverse convex sloped brick. Black Knight. Set/theme you would like to see: An ancient Egypt theme. An ancient Rome theme. Orcs. WWII armor including articulated tracks. A pirate ghost ship with a mermaid/siren figure. What I really want is a quasi Biblical Armageddon theme complete Jehovah, Lucifer, Jesus, and the Four Horsemen. I’d also want a minifigure set of guest stars including Gautama Buddha, Brahma, Allah, and everyone’s favorite intergalactic villain Xenu. Then I could finally put my town minifigures to use as peons running around in the carnage. A philosophers theme would be great too. Sartre could have his little Lego beret and coffee cup, Voltaire would have a contemptuous sneer, and of course Democritus would be included because he turned the universe into Legos. Current LEGO Projects: Legos are sidelined until I finish up a handful of other projects. Greatest Claim to LEGO Fame: When I was twelve, my friend and I were acting like typical bored gremlins during summer break when I came up with a brilliant idea. I tied the end of a spool of thread around an astronaut minifigure’s head and dubbed him Adventure Bob. Then my friend grabbed his parent's video and I slushed Bob down the toilet while narrating the brave voyage. After slushing the toilet 10 odd times, Bob decided he wanted to come up so I began rolling up the thread but then disaster struck. Bob was stuck in the pipes. I pulled too hard and the string broke sealing Bob’s fate in the watery grave. Mortified, we gathered the neighborhood kids together to watch the video and then held a funeral. Bob’s body was lost so we put the roll of thread in a box that acted as a coffin and sent it down the drainage gutter to it’s final resting place. In our hearts we like to believe that Bob was soon after freed from the pipes by a big wad of toilet paper and was sent out into the bay where he was rescued by a Coast Guard cutter. Other (Non-LEGO) Interests: Far too many to list. Painting, sculpture, philosophy, theology, history, plotting world domination, beach volley ball, drinking orange juice with ice cubes, gothic tales (not her flighty sister the gothic novel), new wave science fiction, mind control techniques, all things sardonically sinister and elegantly macabre, and explaining why the Monroe Doctrine should have been extended to the eastern hemisphere.
