    It’s going to be a game-time decision for me, due to various life factors such as “10 month old” and “recovering from ACL surgery” and “work is ridiculous lately” but I’ll try to get there on Wednesday if possible.

    And April 16 is looking promising. Are we going to try to promote the event via our socials? Is 11th Hour going to promote it? (let’s just say, as swell as they are, I don’t get the sense they’re the most promo-savvy brewery in tahn… last Tuesday’s email newsletter didn’t mention the Weds 3/19 event at all; we’ll see if it gets a mention tomorrow / a Facebook post or anything.)

    Pretty sure that’s the only song of theirs I know, lol. But it definitely fits your build, although I don’t think they’re singing about the Log Hauler…

    I’d say “safety in numbers, they can’t catch everyone” except my wife and I proved that to be untrue last month, as we parked between several cars all of which had tickets 45 minutes later, resulting in a total cost of approximately $70 for two milkshakes…

    That said, from my understanding of that combination of signs, you should be good today.

    The Frosts will be away at the beginning of May, otherwise should be okay.

    Say hey, it’s rhyming day! Hooray!

    I got their weekly email update, reminding me that tomorrow is the LEGO night. I am doubtful to make it this week but definitely encourage folks to swing by if you’re able (can be informal participants / do some recon, for now…)

    I’d love to participate, but I can’t really figure out what all y’all are talking about. Will there be a theme for the build? Is it be a town? a mosaic? Will it be anything goes as long as you use a specific color? Will an entire section include only red parts? These are the things that keep me up at night.

    Trying times, to be sure. At least your biggest worries have to do with LEGO displays instead of problems in the world outside of LEGO. So, you got that goin’ for ya… which is nice!

    I have an album of DIG Into Reading (and albums of most of our early displays) on my flickr:

    The modularity and room for continuing to grow over time make this a no-brainer! (how many Pittsburgh Potties can we build…?!?)

    Interested, in theory. Possibly ahtta tahn in April, depending on the date.

    Eleventh Hour is a rill chill spot though, and has solid brews, so I’m all for us supporting this idea!

    I assumed that, like everything that goes on a spice rack, turmeric is super duper cheap, and that we wouldn’t need much,

    It gets cheaper if you buy in bulk! You’re much better off with one person buying a larger qty then everyone handing them a few bucks, as opposed to everyone buying a smaller qty on their own.

    Penzey’s is my turmeric hookup (among other spices): https://www.penzeys.com/online-catalog/turmeric/c-24/p-1177/pd-s – six 1/2-cup jars works out to $41.70, but one 3-cup bag is only $19.49!!! (note: I have no idea how much yinz will need. And while I wish I could come find out in person, alas, being a Responsible Adult / Parent / Homeowner is going to have to take precedence for me this weekend…)

    The spice must flow!

    If there aren’t curves in there, I don’t want it.

    (Also, what’s the vibe for the trains? “ancient castle meets present day / futuristic repopulation…?)

    I would totally pay $50 for life size models of Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps!

    Not sure I’ll get to NC any time soon, unfortunately…

    The yellow, orange (yes it was originally orange) and blue hypercycloids

    HypOcycloids, Greg…

    …hyper-hypo-cycloids.

    Real things sometimes cost less than the LEGO version.

    This looks like a case of “if we list it as free, people won’t be committed; if we list it for a ‘steal’ of a price, we’ll only get serious inquiries.”

    Moving a baby grand is no joke… LEGO versions (depending on scale) are way easier. Just don’t drop them in a snowy parking lot like Doug’s castle, circa January 2014…

    We’re doing this at CSC Locomotion Weekend and Home & Garden, right?!?

    (yeah, this one’s probably been shared before, but come on. Steel City LUG: Tokyo Drift!)

    Welcome! Do you bird-watch as well, or just find them an interesting subject for your builds?

    Definitely interested in that Wolf/pack fig, possibly several if you end up with extras! Some other good ones for sure, but I’ll sleep on whether I’d want a full set. Trying to spend less money these days. 😉

    Is the cockatiel with the Pirate Quartermaster a new animal, or am I just out of the loop?

    Yeah, I suspected it was inadvertently made live before it was intended to be, but that The Brick Fan thought it was fair game since it was revealed on LEGO.com, intentionally or not.

    The contest is: guess how many replacement parts I will be asking Lego for.

    Eleventeen. Wait, no… Thirty-Twelve!

    teleport to Spartanburg SC.

    I might know a guy (well I do know a guy, but I don’t know how close he is to Spartanburg, other than “within the same state”…)

    The Winter Soldier strikes again!

    Also, I missed the Coco build somehow, that’s fantastic!! Such a fun / heart-string-pulling movie.
