I posted this to the LMBs, but since they're going to be shut down, I figured I'd post it on BZP too. Feel free to post your own thanks if you want. Greg, Since this might very well be the last chance I get to post something that you'll see, I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your work on the BIONICLE universe over the years, and your continued activity among the fans that are still paying attention, even though most of us have become adults now. Lego's Bionicle franchise more or less defined my childhood for me. I received a toa set for Christmas in 2001, and after going to the website listed on the canister with my parents and reading the epic story about the characters, I was hooked - for life, apparently. To this day, I still believe the story that the Bionicle team put together over the years is one of the best ever told - and you were a huge part of that. Many stories these days are recycled versions of other stories, yet the Bionicle team managed to put together something that was original, intriguing, creative, and long lasting. Bionicle truly was one of a kind, and I don't think anything will be able to replace it for a long time to come. Bionicle certainly had some flaws - the rumors online that some Lego employees thought the theme was too violent (or my personal pet peeve: too many elements - ice and water are the same thing! haha) show that. But the fact that we held, and apparently still hold, the theme to such a high standard is a testament to how great it truly was, even with its flaws. (And furthermore, it couldn't have ever been the toy that saved Lego if it wasn't what it was, "excessive violence" and all!) There were many people who worked on Bionicle and made it great, and myself and the other fans are grateful for all. But only you, Greg, interact(ed) with the fans on the level that you do/did, so for that, thank you. It's been said before, but I'll say it again: whatever you do in the future, know that you've already made something fantastic for so many kids who opened their first toa canister under the Christmas tree and found a legend inside. With Gratitude and Nostalgia, A.

So, I can't seem to find this anywhere, but has anyone figured out what the notes are on the flute patterns in MNOLG? I mean, I know the pattern to play it in, but the flute isn't set up in the standard C scale and I'm awful at figuring out notes by ear. I want to be able to play it on real instruments and possibly put them into music (eventually). So, if anyone knows, that would be great!

are about twice as springy if you soak them with water. I went to my friend's house with two other guys and we sprayed his trampoline with a hose. We then proceeded to bounce nearly twice as high as we previously had. I don't think I'll ever be able to go on a dry trampoline again. -CM

Well, as most of you know today is fathers day, and such being so I just wanted to tribute the (few) dads out there in the BZComune for being so great to everyone and just being plain awsome. And, what do you think, should fathers day have some speacial colors? perhaps Dark Blue and Brown? And speacking of colors... I have noticed that in the rich text editor section there are many different color choices.... Here is a list. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nice spectrum eh?

Our pool is geting a slide, they have been trying for 5 years, and just this week they have put it up, its probably finished by now, so we are going to check it out, we were there the other day and it looked awsome, it is a total tube, kinda dark, but very large. KToI

So, me and my mom went to one of our (many) petsitting jobs today, the one with five cats, and it turns out that fleas had been breading in the house for a week but they didn't have any cats to stay in (because the cats were confined to rooms and the fleas couldn't find them) and so whoopdedoop and I have 20 fleas hanging out inside my socks just from walking on the floor, so I go outside (after finishing) and kill em all and they just keep appearing, apparently they liked my pants, there may have been like 10 hangin on the back of my pants and 10 in my socks and another 10 in and on my shoes, BLEGH... I realy dislike fleas, espeacialy when they bite. And we still have this job for another few days. KToI

Aren't we all glad of the pool? Without that small body of water we would have nothing to do for 4 blinking hot months of the year. Anyways, We just rejoined a pool club and its very nice, I just went for the second time in 5 years to the same place, but for some reason I just hate pools, today it was 90 degrees so I desided to jump in, but it won't happen often.

This morning I went to take care of dogs, and there was nothing wrong, it all went well, and even the old scardycat dog came straight upto me and lay over and let me pet her, which is alot compared to how she was the first time, the first time she ran away and almost wouldn't go inside. So I think I am making progress with them, and their owners are very... violent.

Have you ever noticed that People rarely ever type accents on Computers? And if they do its like this: y r u join teo d prty??? !!! !!! !!! ! Or: I LOVE BZPWER!!!!!!!!! BZPWOEER ROXS!!!! Yeah, thats what I mean by accent.... NOT, those are the only acents you see and they aren't real, So, I have some demonstrations prepared that I learned from intense book reading. Rustic: Oi sure bain't oi smurt one boi okey, but Oi bee's a good un who'll do 'is daiuly wurk. Captual(I have no Idea what that means...): Well from my large perspective I would say you are suffering from to much work and that you need to get a better hold on your everyday iissues My rrecommendation is you pick a good book and try to finish it in less than 3 hours straight, I on the other hand am capable of finishing a good 1000 page novel in 3 hours, but you may take a smaller one, say 500 pages and try that one out for size, once you have go for large books at the local library. Baby: Whur bee's der hunny mamy? im ungry, we bee's just a smalsh choild. Englander Military: Capitol scoff wot wot? Learnt it from your ma eh? Lively in the ranks there teenshun! AAboutFace on the double now, March! Caryers in the back trade ppositionswi the front runners and take your leave for rrelief Highlander: Ahv been worken o my famers tan, but my wee sheart will nay stay on my large braw bonney seal( f ) de-ye ken? Now southern, see, I am southern and I havn't heard northern a great deal so everything translates to southern (which isn't all that bad and is more normal than northern) for me and I don't know what the spelling differances are so I am no good at spelling it... unless you just look at my normal typing which is the way I pronouce most of my words, although I am working on the word "Catch" So realy you wouldn't notice much of an accent on me, although I am a lot more Captual than every one I know. here is my Highland Boast: Ahm a braw squirl born free o tha land an a highlander by nature If ye wana fight my Braw seal ye best be on yer guard fra ahm no beasty tay a bee messen whi ye ken? That was fun... KToI

I am soon to go into the junior high sunday school class for my first time, in 2 hours. I realy wish I could stay in my sixth grade sunday school situation, with my parents teaching and singing, but oh well, you have to grow up. We will have more on this news update as we gather information. EDIT: It turns out its not all that bad, but the guitarist and singer are no match for my dad up there.

Heh, last night (at 10:30) we went to go take care of my second cousins dogs (we are being payed at least) and they weren't out side which was very weird, we looked inside and there they were, we thought they had ransaked the whooelhouse and were afraind to look around, so we called the people, and it turns out just one shoe got torn up, but those are some insane dogs. And this morning it took for ever for me to wake up so I missed the job and my dad did it, then we went to the pool and I was totaly board and I didn't want to swim and my bros were being werid and silly the whole time, so far the day hasn't been good...

Life has ground to a very slow rumble now, you should have seen the traffic going out of town at rush hour the other day, we live in (a small town, but capitol of the state none the less) town but for some crazy reason my Mom wanted to take our whole familiy of 8 (minus two right then.) to a yard and garden place at the end of the worst street in the state, it took 1:15 to get somplace that should have taken 5 minutes, the whole while my little brothers acting like idiots. But now to top it most of my friends are on vacation and I have Nothing to do all day. (exept do my petsitting job.... which brings another subject, I am going to open a cafepress store so we can get cheap cloths for our business, and I need sugestions for designs that look... Pety and sity, you know?) KToI

I just got back from a trip to the U.P. and I already have to do tons of yard work, you would have thought that magnolia trees had less leaves, especially really thin almost dead ones, but I still gota rake it all up and do stuff, but hey, everyone has to. Oh, I almost forgot, I just started a pet sitting business, its going awsome, but I have a few to many jobs, how do yo suggest I should handle the load? I also just saw all of the misprints on ebay for cheap$ and just wanted to know what the normal price of a full set would be. Thanks KToI
