Hey all,

The recent, yet not-too-terribly-surprising, Lego-related law-breakin' news
got me to thinking.  What's the worst thing you've ever done in a
Lego-related way?  I'm not talking about modding the brick or fanning flame
wars (or starting them), I'm talking about things that many would consider
outright felonious activity.

Will anyone else testify?!  Come now, brothers and sisters!  I will admit
that when I went to the Discovery Museum for the Lego Underwater Adventure
sometime in the late 90's, I saw a 2x2x2 "minifig dress" slope in red in the
open build table pile and palmed it.  Not the worst thing I've ever done,
but some secrets must stay secret.

I follow the straight and narrow path today, but 'twas not always so.

Dave S.
