bishless

My son and I spent some time playing w/ my old Lego collection today. As I was putting him to bed, I was reminded of a Lego set I saw in the store as a 12 year old and just WANTED. My dad encouraged me to save my money and after several months, I had the $50 necessary to buy that set.

Tonight, 18 years later… I rebuilt it using instructions I found online. I was surprised how many of the original pieces I actually still had. I got most of it built aside from the ailerons and the related linkages. I was missing too many of the small technic parts… I wonder if I can purchase just the pieces I’m missing somewhere in order to finish it off?

A letter of thanks.

Dear Terro,

Your liquid poison-based traps worked ridiculously fast. My wife and I are amazed at how well they work. We’ve been fighting an ant infestation behind our oven for almost a week. Thank you, thank you, thank you for creating a non-messy, effective way to eliminate the intruders in our kitchen!

If you’re a DS owner… pick up this game. I’ve had a decent amount of time w/ this title over the past few days due to my girls being sick. It’s delectable.

Both my wife and my 23month-old daughter are sick w/ Strep throat. :(

Sucks not being able to do much for my wife as she shivers under two heavy blankets and moans…

Well, they haven’t forgotten about it… If only this were a sign that Square Enix was going to give this game new life on the Wii or DS.
