The results of that are shown on this page: (URL) looks like the (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.announce, lugnet.org.us.bloc, lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle) !

Well, I finally got ahold of Donna at TRU, and I will be appearing in the store from roughly 1-5pm, depending on how tired I get :) You're welcome to come by and cheer me on or just say hello. Most of my sculptures will be on display (including (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.org.us.bloc, lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

Well, it's April 2nd, and I'm still serious :) I'm not sure how much space we're going to be given, and I'm trying to figure out if I should try to move my Marvin sculpture or not (I'm sure the kids would LOVE it) I hope to get some more (...)

(...) This isn't an April Fools Joke. All I need is for Donna in the Toy department to call me, and we'll set up the details. It seems to fit, since TRU is running their "Lego Month" from March 18-April 14th. Yes, this is the TRU in North Olmstead (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.org.us.bloc, lugnet.loc.us.oh.cle)

Hi, As much as I don't like it, I will do no Lego through May. There are certain things on the house I must get done or the feds will take it away. The Lego room will not be under repair, so if anyone wants to brave the mess (since I'll be doing (...) (23 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.bloc, lugnet.loc.us.oh.col)
