Here I was last night, surrounded by my boxes upon boxes of LEGO bricks, had
a few 1x16 yellow beams (worthless but for smash-em sock'em 1) in my hand,
and I just sat there.

Now I'm sounding like Iain--can't build anything good

OK, good; I'm not the only one who was sitting starring at the lego.

best I have come up with is a (censored -- Eyes Only ) weapon, and I *gasp* opened
up the 8475  instructions book to see how lego attaches the stock motors.

Ugh.  I might just show up with a robot that i know will get torn to bits.....

any idea why we are all going through the Blah's??

First Iain, Dave..... and sometimes, me.

do we need more interesting games?  are we having TOO many things?  should we just
retire  and just go buy star wars sets and make OEM models.

i think we all need more fiber in our diets.

(...) I know exactly how you feel. Its Thursday...competition is Saturday...and I haven't even been CLOSE to where I build stuff. Can I just build a car with no motors, no rcx, no battery box, and just push it around by hand? Bruce (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
