| | | To All, I am not totally sure where to put this, this goes under experience. LMK if there is a more appropriate place.

| | | | | Bummer Scott. I had a experence sorta related, but mine was more my fault or so I was told by my NLSO. I had recently changed the light bulbs in my LSF(basement room) and was in the process of sorting some bulk bricks, so I had 7-8 blue tubs on the (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

| | | | Well, I'm not sure if this is comparable, but... My wife -it seems to me- operates under the feeling that she "allows" a lego collection to exist at all. Not in so many words, but it's clearly a constant nuisance to her. My biggest problem is that I (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | Wayne & All, (...) Heh, I am sure most of us married AFOL's have that same situation, in one way or another. I told my wife the only thing I wanted in a house was a LEGO Storage Facility, err... basement. (...) I have had that for many years as (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

The cat is smart though, trying everything to wear the batteries in his collar down quickly so that he can regain access without the electric shock... And the batteries are (...)

| | | | | | | (...) I lucked out in this regard ... I met my wife while we were both studying abroad, so of course I was sans LEGO. Which means she had plenty of time to see me for the adorable and irresistable person I am *BEFORE* LEGO came into the picture (for (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

I started out in the kitchen, rendering the kitchen table useless. As the collection grew I inserted an extra (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
