First off, let me just say that LEGO is THE greatest toy...ever! I *still* play with LEGO.
:D
Anyway, I stumbled across this site today and thought I would pass this on. Pretty cool!

I'd like a bigger pic of that Great Pumpkin, SC. Can you enlarge it a notch for my ever-older eyes?

Cool things...but I still hate Lego's....has something to do with the fact that my youngest brother used to leave them every where and I'd step on the little pieces in bare feet....OUCH!!!

I don't ever remember having legos. I think I played with other peoples though.

If you google "lego christmas" there are tons of cool pics available. Lego elves, life sized trees, villages, etc.

We had Lincoln logs and oddly shaped rocks in those days. (Mine, not yours.) 8)

I had a stick named Stick Stickly. I dressed him up and made pretend he was Ken when I went to my friends house. All her store bought Barbies turned their noses up at Stick Stickly. They said he wasn't a real toy. It was very sad.

kids don't like these toys these days, they want iPODS, video systems, and cell phones.

I dont think any of them know what an imagination is.

like that episode of the simpsons where Bart finds out there going to the box factory & tries to use his imagination to think of something better & he winds up imagining hes going to the box factory

Can't blame them. They do what they are guided to do. If parents give in to peer pressure, the kids get what they want, which isn't usually the best thing. My parents gave me nothing and I'm OK. Ssshhh! Here comes the warden!

Thats most of the trouble today with youth, parents too easy on em. Do kids even have to take out the trash anymore?
dvdguy

no the kids sue them for low self esteem

If me or my three brothers ever acted the way that the kids do these days we'd have had our hides tanned....and not sue them

Well, the intellectuals make any form of physical punishment sound barbaric and "old school." They're not children, just undeveloped adults.

Amazingly Ward never had to whoop Wally or the Beav and yet they were quite well behaved

Oh, off camera it was brutal. They often would have to clean up the set because of all the blood.
