Same here about the LEGO. And I get the same feeling looking at a piece of good source code I do looking at the sheet music to a great song. Actually all three systems can have a kind of beauty to them, visually, in their patterns and they can either ring right or ring wrong.

I get the same feeling writing good software now as I did when I built cool stuff with Legos and Knex when I was in younger.

Play with some set of Legos long enough, and you're bound to come up with something cool.
