Um, my respects to Bob, but excuse me, Todd your kidding! After meeting you
I can't beleive it!! I mean Todd was such a friendly guy! Very Helpful and
very nice.
Just goes to show you don't tick off a nice guy, and Never Never get in the
way of a man and a good Lego Buy!

And Bob, I too have alot to thank in having Lego to help me thru the tough
times, I just hunker down and work with the Lego, something that never talks
back or judges me.
Thank you!
