Kitties & Hizzies
The culprit making a clean escape... and one of Mo's 'spirits' (dust reflecting the flash) above.
Tori and I made this one with the walk-out 2nd floor garden. Looks fun!
Shelley's comfy condo.
My latest two-story house with two fireplaces and full chimney and Christmas tree.
For Rob and Tori who haven't heard yet, we decided to let the cat go yesterday. The mounting evidence made it pretty clear that the cat was feral and not used to people. So it had a few days staying in the Kitty Hilton with us and is now back in the wild. The entertaining part is that when it ran out of the garage it made a beeline for the shed and darted right into the hole on the east side. Obviously, we've had this cat living with us for about two years or more. We had thought rabbits or some other small critter had taken up shop. We never suspected a wild cat. The dogs always run over and sniff the area when we let them out, but we've never seen any animals over there. The interesting thing is that in retrospect I now recognize the cat. I have seen it several times along the driveway and always made the assumption that it was a neighbor's cat. Now we know! Enjoy the picture of 'Evil Kitty' as it turned once to say goodbye before darting into its cave.
These other photos are examples of what we've come up with from the Lego grab bag gift we got at Saturday's party. LOL I think they're all pretty cool given the pieces in the kit.
Tori, what do you want me to do with the other grab bag gift? We can keep the bottle at your place for sometime if you like. Enjoy your last week! Must be nice and slow and full of people with elevated moods and empty offices as we edge nearer to the holiday.

You know, Lego could make some money if they came out with a Computer or Console program which incorporated ALL their Lego pieces in every color. It's expensive as heck to go buy actual Lego's now, so why not sell a game with unlimited number of pieces and a simple graphical interface where you can turn and rotate your project freely while having a choice of either a simple scroll section or an advanced set selection system for grabbing the pieces you want. Sounds good to me. A game NOT intended for 5 year olds, but designed for Adults and Teens and INCORPORATING the option of simpler controls for the kids to use.
Sounds GREAT to me! I've always wanted to build a 10,000 piece model of a Star Destroyer!
And add to the program a way to save and send the save files as well as snap pictures and/or arrange multiple creations in one scene. =) How awesome would that be? We could essentially have our own stop-motion videos just like Bluntman! =)

Hmmm... just so long as they don't string it out and make it lame and useless by offering only endless "upgrades" to other kits. Just put copy protection on the base program and offer the upgrades free. Do a monthly/yearly contest where the best creations get commissioned to be done in real Lego's or something.
