Am I the only adult who still plays with Lego? I'm constantly surprised to hear adults say that they miss playing with Lego.

Hello people. We are grown-ups now. That means that we have the money to buy all the really cool Lego sets that your parents would never get because they were too expensive.

Do you have Lucky Bear? I only have Wish Bear, but I always wanted Lucky Bear. I called him "The Irish Bear" 'cause I couldn't tell the difference between a four-leafed clover and a trefoil shamrock when I was 7.

I havn't seen Scanner Darkly yet, but I want to. I misspelled "Amelie". It is about a very unique girl in France who learns what it takes to find her true romance.

I know Amelie (Who doesn't?). I have an awkward relationship with that film. It is apparently a wonderful film. Maybe someday I will have the stomach to watch it.

THX is f'n awesome. I remember staying up late as a kid and watching it on tv. The Island reminded me somewhat of it too..

Although I haven't played with my legos in 10+ yrs. I still have'm all. Along with my Hot Wheels cars (or whats left of their mangled corpses).

And I too find goths interesting.. I often stare into the mirror at myself for long creepy moments...lol

Welcome to the 7th circle of our hell...lol

I saw The Island a few months ago, and I kinda liked it. It was clear that it was based on and influenced by Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, and THX-1138. They put their own modern twist on it though, so even though it was derivative, I think it was entertaining, nonetheless.

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone. I am really enjoying this site. It's keen.

Yeah I have a little one of him, I call him the Irish Bear too, he would have to be my favourite because it looks similar to a shamrock (that would be my Irish heritage).
