  Re: Death of the Old Guard
 
(...) ...or maybe we have less time over all, and spend more of it building, and less of it talking... James If those newcomers up there are the old guard, what does that make me? Fossilized? ;p (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Construction toys non-returnable?!
 
(...) I think the image in my mind went something like this, "Marchetti, Hop-Frog, Black Undies..." That is a picture no one is likely to forget. Ribbit! So I suppose your case is the truest of the "it's not easy being green" cases. Hmm? (...) I (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Thats's a special case ;-) Though you should have a Turbo Diesel Ram or other monster truck as your tow vehicle. Then again, if you have a Dodge Ram, that's not an SUV anyways. Not by the "real" definition ("Yuppiemobile that never has dirt on it (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

Psh. You don't know the sports car owners *I* do. I use my car several levels higher than it was intended ;-) While putting out over 1.5 times the stock horspower, I actually get BETTER gas mileage than stock (making more power generally requires (...)

  Re: Death of the Old Guard
 
(...) I was about to say I wouldn't call myself old guard on castle, but I looked for my first message on Castle and it is #15. Still, I'm not old guard in the way the others were: my interest in Lego (besides an activity I do with my son) is (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) I don't even make the list(::weeping::)? What about Mookie(::grumble::)? How about Bruce (who recently had the castle poll)? ::sigh:: I think we are still here, maybe there's just nothing to talk about... ...maybe there's other stuff to talk (...)

  Re: Death of the Old Guard
 
(...) Nah, it isn't exactly dead, I would just say dormant at the time. I guess that's because the lego castle releases have lagged recently, and space, well you know... (...) Hmm...couldn't agree much more than that, to tell you the truth, I can't (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Death of the Old Guard
 
I don't think Lego Castle is dead. I also don't think Harry Potter is castle, but rather just castle fodder. However, I submit to you that it is not Lego Castle that is dieing, but rather Lugnet.castle. The old guard is all but gone now. Just about (...)

(...) ergh? As a Dodge Neon racer, I have to have a big Dodge to pull the trailer with the Neon in it. Neon not enough of a sports car? Sure has enough dings and dents to qualify as having been seriously "sported". And if it doesn't qualify, then I (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Do you qualify? Was Re: Globalization, H1-B Visas, other geeky stuff...
 
(...) Road & Track, Car & Driver, Motor Trend, etc. all refer to the Miata as a sports car, so forgive me if I value their opinion over yours. :-) But then, I consider my 1953 MGTD that I used to own a sports car... Bruce (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
