Well, there's no time like the present! I just started mine less than a month
ago, and it's boosted my legoish self-esteem and ego ;-) not to mention my
motivation. I suggest, start one today and let us all see your (surely
wonderful) creations!

Well, Larry does never make misteaks...
Of course for me, all themes are spare parts for Pirates, and Trains, and
Castle...

Of course he doesn't. It would be sacrilege to say otherwise, and wise not to.
A Why's cracker might say that Larry is not the God of Trains, but a why's
person would not say a word against him (unless he wants to be run down by
thousands of metroliners).

Shiri-
I know you are a ESLer and I applaud you so I had to bring to your attention a
couple of spelling errors that made day:-) Why's cracker = wisecracker, and
why's person = wise person;-D
Special note: Larry may have followers called Larritarians [1], but that doesn't
make him a or the Train God. Heck, he doesn't even build them wide enough!
And BTW, send a brick offering to Lar at his Ada address and receive a special
and exclusive item.

Or in other words: why's cracker = Shiri
The misspelling was intended... I, as Larry, never make misteaks. Er, almost
ever.

8 is a binary number, for people who can only think of two things at once.
6 is a repetitive number (1), for people who can only think of one thing at a
time.
(That said, I have no opinion whatsoever about the width question... I refuse
to stoop so low as to talk with trainiacs. ;)

Thousands of metroliners?? Even in my grandest fantasies, that is a bit
much.
Thousands of dollars worth of metroliners? That I can do. I packed a box
that I toted up as worth close to 2000 at market value, it had 3
metroliners and 3 airport shuttles and 2 club cars. That one I am going
to hand carry to the new house.

Trains are a subtheme of Town according to some. And, if you vote right,
you might just see a resurgence of feudalism and a return of wooden
ships and iron men, so whos to say that Castle and Pirate aren't future
as well as past? :-)

I'd like to lay my hands on such a box... I wouldn't even think of auctioning
those off (though, to think of all the maiden's carts and Gaurded inn's I
could buy with that... scary). Larry, you have too much lego.

No one who plays with their Lego has too much of it. Larry certainly
qualifies.

Ah, no, there are still just the two of us-- me and Tommy McSpamcake. The
original member was Gary Louie.
But hey, send in those brick love offerings and see what you are missing (To Lar,
not me;) I will say this: membership has its rewards......;-D

When I read Shiri's statement about having too much LEGO it reminded me of a

Warning, that's my acolyte talking. He's a good acolyte but not
necessarily reliable.
To whoever asked, acolytes are above altar boys. But you have to have an
altar to have altar boys. Don't have an altar, so no altar boys.

Mortals, your offerings are held in high esteem. I still have the lovely
offering John gave me (AND the jewelry case it was presented in) and the
offering from Gary is one of my most highly prized possessions.
Do not be fooled by disbelieving detractors. Each and every offering
will be cherished.

I've been considering sending a love offering, just so that I could later nail
theocrats(1) to your door, and cause a schism.

Hmmm... That's odd... I can't check it now (I'm at work), but it was working
at 5 minutes to midnight (eastern time). I'll ask a friend of mine if he is
also getting a problem (he's on the same server).

After I saw my post, I wondered how long it would take for someone to jump on that;-)
Wasn't a misteak actually...-- I meant that I was rolling on the linoleum floor. Right as
I read your post I burst out laughing and hit a candle....yeah, and I set my shirt on
fire...yeah, that's the ticket...so I had to stop, drop, and roll...with my wife, Morgan
Fairchild (whom I've seen naked).
