Scott,  In 2004, when they open up the three permanent downtown Detroit Casino's (MGM Grand,
Circus Circus, etc) on the riverfront (800 million dollars each), there will probably be
something like the "Caesar's World of Shops" (in Las Vegas).  That is where I would love to
set up shop, where people from all over will be by to visit.  Since you're the first AFOL
I've ever met in person, you have first dibs on any job openings, heh-heh.

Just a pipe dream for now...

I'd like to open up a Lego store (how about a bulk parts store where you can get
2 scoops of arches and 1/2 pound of tiles to go).  I'd also like to set up my cityscape
in the display window, and spend part of the time offering building seminars.

Just a dream right now, but you never know!  This, of course, is assuming that I give
up the lucrative profession of being a computer consultant.  But that involves giving
up doing what I can make money at versus doing what I love.

If I ever had a real reason to move to a Detroit suburb here it is. ;-) $800M each? Sounds like expensive rent. And it'll probably be more like $900M when all is said and done due to cost overruns. -Tom McD. when replying, "My Life with Spamcake" (...) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) I've heard rumours that LEGO might someday franchise their "Imagination Center" stores... This sounds like a good location to have one! John1 (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
