(...) Actually it was working fine a few minutes after I posted it. Perhaps it was a momentary DNS glitch or perhaps it was only down for a few minutes, but either way it's not an issue any more. (21 years ago, 25-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) The only purpose I recall was that if you accumulated a really low number of points (say twenty-five or so) you could get a free membership to the Lego Builders Club. It was how I got my first membership all those years ago. The interesting (...) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

It was almost like Christmas Eve... I dreamed there was a new red tub, with all-different bonus box, and TRU was selling them separately because the straps broke. I dreamed there was a line of Designer sets in white wraparound packaging, there was a (...) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

| | Points on the Back Corner of Instruction Booklets
|

Does anyone know what they were for? I remember that they used to appear in all the sets I bought in the early 90's and that I saved the instruction booklets to save the points. I hoped that one day I would find out what they were for, and I would (...) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

What a day we had yesterday at the Enfield Model Shop. Ever since we moved into our new digs in the Compass House on the Enfield campus, Shows & Events has had problems with the heating and cooling in our room. So with the sub-freezing temperatures (...)

As the snow falls silently by my window, and my children are outside building an "awesome" snow fort, I decided to share my simple little Lego plan with friends I have met through this hobby. Both of my boys each got me one copy of the Hockey (...) (21 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto) !

(...) Penne does work VERY well for this. It's not so funny when, as an AFOL, someone does this to you with a non-Lego gift, however. Two Christmases ago my then-girlfriend did that to me; she found a box that was JUST the right dimensions for Lego, (...) (21 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.fun)

Hi all, I just found out on Classic Castle that (URL) Building Bonanza> is available in North America! US$39.99, or CDN$59.99 (for 667 non-juniorized pieces that's quite the deal!)

My wife Laurette is the one who helped end my dark ages 14 years ago by placing a 25 piece 6811 Pulsar Charger (URL) in my Christmas stocking as a gag gift. That gag gift's piece count has since been squared and squared again (25 X 25 X 25 X 25). I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.fun)
