Greetings all. I wanted to share my excitement of being chosen as one of three DC finalists for the position of LEGOLAND Master Model Builder: http://www.legomasterbuilder.com/washingtondc_finalists.html I’m at the bottom of the page.

The next step is the final build-off in San Diego, CA at LEGOLAND in late January. It will be a long, winter wait until then. In the meantime, keep an eye on CNN Monday at 7am.

I also wanted to publicly thank all the people who helped get me here. It would be a long list if I went person by person, but thanks to everyone in the community for being creative and inspiring and encouraging me to pursue this. Thanks to all the WAMALUG and SciBrick members especially for good wishes and motivation. Most of all, I have to thank God, Creator of everything, and my greatest inspiration.

LEGOLAND or bust, baby!

Congratulations, Aaron! Maybe that wired.com article is good luck? :)

We will hope so, right? It doesn’t hurt if the whole thing arrives the day before your birthday. But that’s hard to ‘arrange’ huh?

Thanks Joe. Cool that you saw it in advance! But regarding the practicing... What do you think I’ve been doing for the past 25 years? It’s all practice.

Oh, and I’ll be trying to plug SciBrick on CNN on Monday, if I get a chance.

That's the closest thing I could come up with. But next time, I'm taking a brick
separator. My fingers were almost bleeding from the brand new bricks they had us
use.

Congratulations, Aaron!!

Can you describe how the ‘event’ went? Maybe your ideas as to why you were selected over the other people there?

Go ahead, brag (a little) -- you’ve earned it!

And best of luck in January!!

I don’t want to give away all my secrets and my edge, being from the first city, I get to watch everyone else participate with some trepidation. But I will say this: LEGO was very observant, and they really impressed the importance of being able to deal with children and crowds, that it’s a job at a theme park, and the building skill is only a part of the job requirements.
