(...) If it makes you feel any better, so did I. I remember my friends all wanted cars for high school graduation, but I just had to have one of the first HP calculators. (Yikes! I guess I really must have been a geek.) : ) Maggie C. (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: 1950's LEGO
 
(...) I think he meant that by discussing lego, you are on-topic for the 'normal' lugnet groups... some people like to say that the word "lego" is not allowed in off-topic... I don't know, but I think that general silliness fits excellently in o- (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Dim Wit (was Re: Weird box from S@H)
 
(...) I am betting that a lot of S@H customers refer to the boxes as DIM WIT. I know I do. I like the Dim Wit 9 the best as those definitely hold more than a Dim Wit 2. In fact, I probably have about 30 Dim Wit boxes around the house with stuff in (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: (Movie) Mission to Mars
 
(...) I would say that no, The Matrix doesn't fit the description of a Time Travel Cyborg Thriller. The 'time-travel' and 'cyborg' aspects of the movie are more plot devices, rather than plot points (The Matrix could have been in a 'false- future' (...)

(...) for what it's worth, "Shiri" is how I'd spell your name. I never saw a "Sheeree" before - what's the source of that? :) Dan (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Purimish fun
 
(...) Thanks for sharing, Shiri! Gee, I hate to say what I was doing for Purim -- but let's just say I celebrated in my own manner and leave it at that. -- Richard (Never a moment to recover myself...or my failing health... ::cough, cough::) (26 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: (Movie) Mission to Mars
 
(...) That reminds me... :) A few years back, there was this really cheesy (IMHO) sci-fi movie called _Time Runner_ -- starred Mark Hamill and Rae Dawn Chong.
