I'll tell you what I did.  I made an image brought forth by Adam Sandler in a
Saturday Night Live sketch come to life.  As I recall Sandler and Tim Meadows
were doing their Captain Jim and Pedro personas (you know the desert island
castaways thrust back into contemporary society?) and were trying to make a
good impression on their dates' father.  Sandler trying to showcase their
ingenuity and madness blurts out, "One time we made a raft out of dead
monkeys!"  He pauses for effect and then says, "It floated!"  I must say that
a pirate sitting on a raft of 20 armless, legless monkey bodies lashed
together as a raft will make a great centerpiece to any lego collection.  When
people see my collection that piece is the only  one that gets a comment
everytime.
