Yes he did and no one had better let him out of it! :lookhere:

 

Wow, BrickFest was a blast. It's all mish-mashing in my head right now, so I'll make with the quick-hits before I forget everything.

  • 50° F (10° C) is an overnight low, not a daytime high, for March. Geez, Oregon. It's spring. Get with the program.
  • The scent of a Randazzo even before the bag is opened is as hypnotic as ever.
  • TLG has to open a LEGO store at some point along the Gulf coast. I'll drive to Gulf Shores if necessary; I just can't go to Orlando for one store.
  • Roa McToa is well on her way to being the next Cajun. Not for awesomness of MOCcing per se, but for being the standard-bearer for the legitimacy of BIONICLE among AFOL-dom.
  • SQUIDDIES!
  • Photographs do not fully explain how tall Makaru is.
  • EAURUGYUNUGH!
  • Chris doesn't have my childhood LEGO collection, which means they truly are lost for the ages. :(
  • Dalek the Dark Hunter Destroyer would be good at a photo scavenger hunt: I think the last couple were in my pocket.
  • Turakii, Roa has the squiddies. Bug her. :P
  • Aisle seat, heavy-set men in front and behind, colicky baby & kid who apparently had never been on an airplane before: 1

    Any hope of KIE getting some sleep on Continental 208 Sunday night: 0

  • Light rails are fun. If Jefferson, Orleans, St. Bernard & Plaquemines parishes ever got it together and built a system, it'd be pretty cool. Wouldn't have to be a subway or anything. (The water table in Louisiana is generally 8 feet (2.5 m) below the ground surface, making it pretty difficult to build anything of size underground.) I'd so totally ride it.
  • Fred Meyer: meh. Give me Walmart, blue state socio-economics be darned.
  • Thank you, UCLA, for letting me and my bracket down, right there at the end.
Good times. We must do it again.

 

-KIE, enjoying his 80° F (27° C) weather.

Yay for a blast! I hope to go next year. :D

 

Hehe, you know KIE it is LA that needs to get in the program, here we practically skipped spring and went straight to summer!

Is Brickfest always held in Oregon, or does it change location each year? Because I would love to go if it were somewhere on the east coast... looks like it was jolly good fun.

 

So exactly how tall is Makaru, anyhow? :P

It really sounds like a blast. It was very cool being able to talk to you too KIE :happy: .

 

If Brickfest happens again next year, whether in Oregon or DC, I'm going. No two ways about it. Unless the world ends, I'm going.

I'd love to attend a Brickfest - but there's the issue of me being oceans away. :lol:

 

Sweet and funny. If the photo is correct, well, Makaru may be as tall as my brother, maybe taller.

 

And Roa McToa doesn't really look like a 'she' in that photograph. Must be the presence of the bearded one next to her that gave the impression. *nudge*

 

Maybe you'll be there... next year?

That we did, that we did.

It's only been held in 2 places, Dok: Washington, DC (7 times) and Portland, OR (twice).

Whoa! This time next year, I'll be in DC, hmm. KIE, your mission is to convince the Brickfest staff to move the next event to DC... or Shreveport, whichever's more convenient :P.

Hey! I live here, don't insult our weather! If you can't handle it, don't come here! :P

 

Dalek the Dark Hunter Destroyer would be good at a photo scavenger hunt: I think the last couple were in my pocket.

 

Actually, I found them all, I caught you playing with the last one, remember?

 

Turakii, Roa has the squiddies. Bug her. :P

 

Well I have the pictures, so bug me! :D

Photographs do not fully explain how tall Makaru is.

Well, how tall are you?

So tall that even bricks cannot define his height.

That crazy man speaks nothing but the truth.

Wow, if I went to brickfest, I swear, I would be like 2 heads shorter than all you guys. :P

Ah, sound like you guys had such a blast. I hope something happens in DC soon that will attract some BZPers. Someone in my LUG is playing with the idea.

 

Anyway, everybody, Play Well, and I hope I'll see some of you again eventually, and some of you for the first time!

and KIE, Oregon (and Washington) are cooler than us on the Eastern side. That's just the way it is. (and sometimes it's comfortable, too)

I wasn't actually there, that's a cropped version of a picture a friend took of the Bionicle table. You just happened to be in it, so I thought I'd post it.
