A post to start all others

I'm not really wanting to say anything at the moment - but I got tired of seeing "5882 posts" at the bottom of the screen for the 4th or 5th day in a row, so I had to do something!!

Is everyone busy, or just not talkative? Does everyone suddenly hate everyone else - or just me....

- probably not! That sounds almost contradictory - "totally worth seeing", if you can "stand [it]"!!

That's great David - Lego at work. Great little Lego sound board. What do your coworkers think of it?

P.S. Does the fact that you do Lego B-Day parties, etc. make it easier for people to accept that you're an AFOL? ("it's my part time job!") haha!

I tell people I'm an AFOL all the time. The parties doesn't really make it any easier to take because most people don't think much of it. Keep in mind that I spend much of my time in theatres around artsi people who likely have their own strange secrets...

My co-worker thought it was pretty great. He said something about Sound guys and lighting guy being at odds in England so I took that picture where he's hitting me with the chair.

Hey john , you coming to brick con again this year , bringing some awesome models too ?

Post by **J1A3L5** » Sat Sep 16, 2006 10:46 am

Yep I've been signed up for it right from the start! I have a 120x80 model coming this year, which is fairly close to completion. I won't be a judge of how awesome it is...that's up to you!...but I am somewhat pleased that it turned out fairly close to how I imagined it. Let's just say that space better watch out!

Hope to see you there!

If its anything like your pirate MOC , I can;t wait !@!!!

Look out for mine too

. not space though , theme to be revealed later

Nah, it's not like my pirate model that much, aside from the fact it involves similar ocean bits. Personally I think it's a much better overall model, with a lot more interest.

Can't wait to see your model - I'm sure it'll be awesome!
