You better buy your copy now. Before the libs find out Legos can be used to launch a projectile. Guns dont kill people Legos do!

Legos-the next toy to be banned at public schools since they can be built to look like and be used as weapons.

Lots of specialty parts in those. When I was a kid you just had the blocks and the windows. We fought over the wheel pieces.

One great thing about Legos is they’re NOT made in China!

My erector set had plans for making a ‘shocking device’.

It used the elecric motor’s windings as the coil, a battery, a gear, and one of the holed metal straps for the ‘points’.

After a while, I took the motor coil out and put a TV Degausser in it’s place.

I made a strobe light out of the erector set, as well.

If I had just had a big enough erector set, I coulda built....

Uh, yeah. I'm guessing he doesn't get out very much.

They have already banned them in some schools. The reason was that some kids always end up with more pieces than other kids and that makes the others feel left out.

I’m sure I read that here on FR awhile back. Or maybe I heard it on rush.

I had an erector set, too. I haven’t seen them for years. I figure the name did them in.
