I'll tell you what I did. I made an image brought forth by Adam Sandler in a
Saturday Night Live sketch come to life. As I recall Sandler and Tim Meadows
were doing their Captain Jim and Pedro personas (you know the desert island
castaways thrust back into contemporary society?) and were trying to make a
good impression on their dates' father. Sandler trying to showcase their
ingenuity and madness blurts out, "One time we made a raft out of dead
monkeys!" He pauses for effect and then says, "It floated!" I must say that
a pirate sitting on a raft of 20 armless, legless monkey bodies lashed
together as a raft will make a great centerpiece to any lego collection. When
people see my collection that piece is the only one that gets a comment
everytime.
