    Enter the Dragon... or a fun teaser part deux —Anthony Sava
   Deja vu all over again? Nah, just a preview for what is to come. In the footsteps of the might Pawel, some of you may have noticed in my story that there is a massively huge and scary dragon.

     (...) lot of words: The wings are awesome, I like the articulated tail, if I made it out right, the legs are cleverly constructed too, and the head looks nifty. That little knight standing there looks to be no match...but who knows? Again, amazing (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)

     (...) HAH! You think you can stump me on this one, well let's just see who's stumped. TO answer your question, we must first look at the biological requirements of the dragon. Now, most people see dragons lying on their horde of gold, guarding it. (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)
    
         Re: Enter the Dragon... far too long... —Richard Noeckel
      I honestly don’t know who has more time on their hands! ‘You,’ for writing that essay. Or ‘me,’ for reading the entire page? Either way… i'd say it’s a grand (1)misappropriation of time. -R (1) Misappropriation, along with antidisestablishmentarisms (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)

Also, the blue whale expends an ENORMOUS amount of energy maintaining its body temperature. A mammal needs to eat a lot (...) (23 years ago, 15-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)

      Don't hold your breath too long, Eric. With the huge number of click hinges involved, it'll take me a while to gather up enough money to order the pieces to build them all.
