          Oh my gosh, those are definitely a blast from the past!

          I totally like the yellow square pieces with the middle missing. I used them as windows when I was building a house. Another time I used them as the frames to build a pair of eyeglasses.

          It was stimulating how the "stickle" part of the bricks created a tingling sensation when you were using them.

            I think they're called bristle blocks if my half ass memory serves me right. I was a tinker toy kid myself.

                  You can't have manslaughter without laughter.

                  "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

                        Didn't Legos have some ripoff bigger block franchise for retarded children who couldn't connect littler pieces? Duplos or something?
