Thanks dude (for everything but the cursin')
Those ball sockets (the 12 year old boy in my is giggling) are really swift.
They look like the bell on some Apollo era thruster or something. They were
fun to use, and made connecting them fun because they are not studs up.
Thank you for speaking well of my bottom... as a fat guy I don't get that
much... OOO the MOC... *erm* I was going for semi studless top and greebly
bottom.
Thanks Gil!
