Its probably be like the others in that its not exactly too wierd...its
probably just out of the ordinary.

I have a (baby blue) Lego Printed blanket and sheet set (w/matching
pillow casses, and curtains).  I don't have the curtains up, but I do
sleep with the sheets, pillow case (at least the regular one) and
the comforter.

I got them in an E-bay auction.

When I was in the active service, I got a bit of chuckles and amazement from
my peers.

There was more amazement when I showed them the rather large pile of lego in
my small barracks room.

(...) <Jaw-drops> WoW…too funny… The ‘hazing’ you musta received had to be brutal! I can’t believe you brought Lego into your barracks. Your far braver than I! =) --==Richard==-- (24 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.general)
