Bruce, This is seriously one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. Not only did you build something funny, you've managed to lampoon the whole field of Post graduate study. This whole thing smacks of someone deeply entrenched in the (...) (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.town)

I should be able to make it to the LUGOLA meeting. If not, we could meet up afterwards. I have a few new MOCs too. I look forward to seeing it! -Bruce LEGO @ Bruce's Homepage - (URL) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.town)

I was thinking that such things would be appropriate, however, because in TLC sets they seem to show up in odd places just so that a set can be more exciting. I figured where else on a (...)
