That's hard.  But yeah it could be something like that.  Race to the centre,
pick it up, go back to start.  That's not too bad actually.  I'd rather see

tightrope above the ground.

I did too.  I loved those Nova or SciAm Frontiers episodes about young minds

I always wanted to go to MIT just because of those too!

Then I saw you needed like 98% in everything.  Stupid jerks.  School sucks
anyway.

A minifigure is something everyone has and it's somewhat cute.  Sure.  But I
think climbing up a string is hard!

I think it's a lot easier than other concepts you have come up with that you
say are easy that I think are very hard!
