    I spent some time looking through Brickipedia last night at old space and castle sets. I had so many of the little space sets that were under $5.00. Just a tiny weird spaceship or rover thing and a spaceman. But I think this might be the only original spaceman that made it back to me. 

    The good news was that I think ALL my castle Legos and knights survived their 25 years in a box at the bottom of a closet.

    One of my biggest regrets is that I didn't take my whole rubbermaid bin of old Legos with me when I moved out of my parents' house before getting married.

    Did it go in a garage sale? Or worse?

    I honestly have no idea. It probably got trashed, but I don't know. And it's not like I can just call 'em up and ask about it.... I've kind of been disowned. :/ (Long story, don't ask.)

    Brian Takle I shouldn't have been surprised, but I still was when I discovered you can find the instructions for just about any old set online. I could build all my old castles.

    Alex Hakobian Yikes.

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Hit Me with your Horror

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
