(...) No joke on the Photoshop. The real Mark Sandlin is a 5'3" Korean woman - but all known photos of him have this giant leprauchan guy instead. -nk (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.people, FTX)

(...) Seriously, can someone explain to me why pics of the GA's hair color always appear to have been altered in Photoshop? :-) JOHN (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.people, FTX)

(...) Ummm....well...what can I say, I've always had weakness for red-heads, and to be fair, Sandlin's sexual appeal crosses all gender boundaries. -Keith (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org)

(...) Just as a point of interest, this can be easily recreated in lego for your name tag: (URL) And i've seen it at Brickfest the last couple of years.

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
Replying generally here both to Teddy and others in this thread. I'm gay. Most people in my local group (VLC) know that, and they know my partner, who sometimes comes and helps haul tables and setup or teardown at shows just to help out, though he's (...)

  Coming to driveways of overpaid individuals: the International CXT7300 truck
 
International presents: The CXT7300 Truck : (URL) told me about this the other day, but above is the product brochure. I must say, it's about as beautiful as a Pontiac Aztek (and maybe a Honda Element of M-blocks), and probably about as useful as a (...) (20 years ago, 14-Sep-04, to lugnet.fun)
 
  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) As this is directly topical for LUGNET discussion, and there's not even anything to debate, it doesn't belong in .off-topic.debate. Right? And if you do start a club, wouldn't it fall under the .org. hierarchy?

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
Hi teddy, I have absolutely no problems with me being gay in this community. But I'd love to be a Lavender Brickette :-) Since I'm in the Netherlands, I don't have any issues with acceptance or something, but it would be nice to exchange thoughts (...)

  Lavender Brick Society
 
I've been kicking an idea around for a while, and I wanted to put it out to the community: I'd like to start an organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) AFOLs. A lavender brick society, if you like. It's seemed to me that (...)

  An ode to the new colours.
 
When I built and subsequently took apart the new X-Wing I didn't even think to actually check whether the grays and brown were old or new. I just assumed they were new, like in the other new SW sets. So into my new gray/brown tub the pieces went! At (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.fun)

Thanks for reminding me of why I like these silly plastic bricks! It brought back some fond memories that tend to get forgotten when reading some of the stuff that goes on around here. James Wilson, Dallas, TX (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.fun, lugnet.general)
