old fantasy
(blog entry)
I've come across a list of top 100 old fantasy books that span from the 1700's to about 1980. most of the books I don't know, but some of my very favourite books are in this list, and some of those I never see mentioned anywhere ever, so am taking...

packing
(blog entry)
such an endless task, I can easily spend 8 hrs a day doing this. there are a few things I'm (re)finding out from this move, such as the smaller the pile of stuff the longer it takes to pack. this increases expoentially with the size of the pile u...

broken pillar
(blog entry)
one could say there are 4 pillars that hold up the worldwide Lego community, none of which are lego.com.
the first would be lugnet.com which is the forum and news site that is run and populated by grown enthusiasts and hobbyists of the product ...

we get these things quite a bit, mabye about a dozen since we've moved in ( it might be the same one... ) used to get them when we lived on Roseberry which was very close to Bay and Fernwood and I used to see them in New Westminster regularly as well. any idea what this horse of a bug is? this is pretty much actual size, I measured the gap between the squares on the drape and resized the image till it matched.

I've come across a list of top 100 old fantasy books that span from the 1700's to about 1980. most of the books I don't know, but some of my very favourite books are in this list, and some of those I never see mentioned anywhere ever, so am taking this paticular list with some credence. I copied out titles and authors of books up to around 1910 that I'm not familiar with so far, and wanted to run them by my most trusted literary confidents to see if any of you have heard of, read these, know ...

one could say there are 4 pillars that hold up the worldwide Lego community, none of which are lego.com.
the first would be lugnet.com which is the forum and news site that is run and populated by grown enthusiasts and hobbyists of the product and craft. it has been running since 1999 and gone through a few shifts in management, but has managed to be the hub for anything brick.
the second, though this might be debatable, is peeron.com which is the set and piece inventory repository. not...
