Yeah, no doubt about it. At least that person will be able to get their dolls
right away, since they are still in stock.(At this point, I can deal with not
getting my Lego - barely ;-) it's the trouble of getting it all straight that I
dread.

I left a message on KBs Star Trek board, and their moderator said it was
probably a problem with their "tractor beam"...I had to laugh. "Tractor beam"
sounded so Star Trekkish to me :-)
Is there a conspiracy at KB to get me to be a trekkie?
No, No Never!! Although...after close to 30 years of trying I finally was able
to get my fingers to do that salute thing they do. First put the pinky and ring
fingers together, and then swing the middle over to the index...I was so happy
when I figured that out I did it all day :-D
