> Does the guy who dies with the most silver bricks win?
LOL, I think. Reminds me of one of Beaker's sigs,"He who
dies with the most toys is never the less still dead."
As I am prone to building pyramids when frustrated by lack
of success in other projects, I desire to mimic the style,
as is now being proposed, of the Giza pyramids. It is now

the UK, this is a means for me to acquire them! (Especially
considering that many Technic subs sold in the US did not
come with the CD, AFAIK).
One could suggest I was exchanging silver for silver...

Grammar police please feel free to pick apart this post. Due
to late night composition, feel some of the above sentences
are in serious need of attention!
