Happy Birthday To The Brick

As you may have heard, today's the 50th Birthday of the LEGO Brick. There are some fun things going on today, thought I'd share and point some out.

  • A brass band singing "Is that my baby" just walked through the office. The tuba player had to duck to avoid the low-hanging ceiling in some places.
  • Google has a header made from LEGO bricks today, even including a minifig. Traffic to LEGO.com is expected to spike.
  • Various fun things are planned for different locations, or so I've read in different news items.
  • There's a celebration in a few minutes here at the main corporate offices. Should be fun!
So you can look at the stud-and-tube brick and marvel at how many of those little suckers have been produced over the last half-century. Pretty impressive, if you ask me.

 

And the best part... I get to be here in the middle of it! How cool is that? :)

Bah, no use. Party's over. :( So, did this take place in Denmark or where?
