Timothy, that sounds great to me!
What does everyone else think?
If you bring your favorite minifig to work this week (Monday the 11th
through Friday the 15th), it would fall in line with BYFMTWD on previous
years. (IIRC, 1998 was on the 11th and 1997 was on the 10th, or something
like that.) BYFMTWD goes back to 1996 or 1995 on RTL, maybe even earlier.
How 'bout we say that BYFMTWW is the week in which December 11 falls?

Total agreement over here!

Awesome! I'm not sure if it might someday coincide with Hannuka, but heck, I
wouldn't worry about it unless it really does. ;-)

I've had thoughts about this as I put models together at my desk. It ususally
goes something like this.
Supervisor: You'll never work here again!
Me: As you noticed, I barely work here now. (rim-shot)
Luckily, I also answer an 800-line so there are times when I'm required to
amuse myself. Other times, I just work on not getting caught. Like today, my
Lead is off and my Supervisor sits half-way across the department and has one
of those voices that carry well so I always know when he's near.
Now I have to figure out which is my favorite.

Great! I finally brought mine in today, to join in with the half dozen that
live at work.
Mine is as follows:
Qui-gon head, Torso from Adventurers guy with hook hand ( has shoulder strap
with pouch, but no gun in belt), Two regular yellow hands, brown waist and
legs, brown cloak, brown Star Wars hood.
And today he decided to bring a Star Wars light sabre handle with a green
castle flame in it ( to ward off aggressive co-workers )

Howdy Folks.
Sorry to bring up some critisism here but i have to say that i think Todd
doesnt handle this correct.
How could it happen that a celebration of _that_ importance could pass by
without me recognizing it?
Every day in office i took at least one look at lugnet and didnt get it that
BYFMTWW is approaching. Now i have missed it! (Think this in capital letters
<g>)
What shall i do now???
Really Todd. To let this happen shows, that you are not enough concerned
about those New-AFOLs like me. You should have reminded and explained to all
of us the BYFMTWW on a much more prominent place on lugnet.
Now i have missed it and have to wait until next year (huhuhu).
Harald (now needs to explain why he sits crying in his office)
PS.: Ok folks, just a joke. Dont flame me again ;-)
