Todd Thuma Got The Baby.
Yes he did and no one had better let him out of it!
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.
- 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.
-KIE, enjoying his 80° F (27° C) weather.
