"My dad is an architect, (really he is an intern architect, which means that he gets to draw stairs, windows and urinals for a living) and a darn adequate one at that. And while I share his same talents, (and anal obsession for perfection at the expense of others sanity) I have a greater sense of ambition. To me, designing buildings is only one step above building with legos, or tinker toys (and let's face it, any two year old can do that). I want to create things that move, and move fast, things that make a lot of noise and call attention to itself, things that have complex pieces and need more advance methods of assembly to be put together; something like sports cars or school buses. And just to make my dad feel better about all of this, and to remind him how lucky he is to have me for his son I'm going to let him think that he is teaching me everything I need to know about design and building (but don't worry, I won't listen to any of it.)"
