well....I guess it doesn't matter to me since I am the "official
scorekeeper", and I guess that would make me the most impartial person.
That being said, a nice set like that would probably encourage the
competitors to win by all means, ethical or not.....
and I am sure those that competed in the past know what I mean....

Oh....I wasn't talking about that, but that wouldn't be a bad prize to
give out, heck, I might even donate $15 to use it as a prize....hmmmmm....
I was talking about the "give-away" from Lego Shop @ Home, the one you got
for a "gift" for ordering over $75 on an order.
(sheepishly....) I managed to put in 3 orders over $75, including the last
one that reached over $300.... (oops!!!) :)
