A really cool version of Bag End that would make any LOTR and Lego geek as happy as Smeagol with a stomach full of fisheses. If only I could be so creative... or have so much spare time. Be sure to check out his whole gallery of cool lego builds."

The Dev writes "The Pacific Northwest LEGO train club is attempting to break the world record for the longest LEGO train layout. They are setting up in the Seattle center right now, so you if you are in the area you might want to check it out. There are of course some Pictures on Brickshelf and a live webcam at the PNLTC website. The original announcement is here on Lugnet"

Nothing like some quality quickies to survive humpday. Magus311X sent us linkage to an awesome web site that has the plans for nearly every set of legos. If you still have your big bucket, you'll love it. I always got bored half way through the plans tho. Started putting guns on my castles and plants on my spaceships wings. HP LoveJet (I like that one) sent us a webpage that will compute your Wu-Tang name ('Rob Malda' = 'Grand Moff Puppeteer') Blaxthos sent us a photo of the most amazing toilet mankind has developed thus far. Looking for some new comics? Bob Barker pointed us to Tug House and Cecil noticed EtherLife v1.5.. I dig EL15. And now the pointless violence and stupidity portion of the quickies: DragonHawk sent us some nice pictures of people ignoring the warning labels on spray cans, and also building a potato gun capable of firing spuds at 550 MPH. Then we have a guy who builds "sparkler bombs" by setting off 1000 sparklers at a time. Jura sent us pictures of computers that he apparently shot the hell out of. Elwood sent us linkage to another license, this one is the BPL or The "Bastard Public License" Next, random Slashdot references from around the net: Raps sent us writes Alfdot, a Slashdot parody weblog about everyone's favorite lame 80s sitcom (cancelled no doubt do to government conspiracy). Slashdot Man earned a special place on my list of 'people to get a restraining order for' his fan page. Eeeek rebrane sent us a Slashdot drinking game. And the perfect quickie to get some closure on the day: McAdder sent us Final Thoughts which is a website that spams your friends and family upon your death to send them your, well, final thoughts from beyond the grave. Wierd.

eht sent us something a bit strange, but I'm posting it anyway. "Scans here and here from next year's Lego catalogs, Millenium Falcon, improved X-wing and Tie Advanced models, Slave1, Battle Droids, more Jar Jars, and a bunch of other new stuff, and yes that is a Boba Fett minifig " Maybe I'm all nostalgic 'cuz I'm 23 and I'll probably get clothes for christmas this year, but those things look pretty awesome. Even all of my cousins are to old. Toys get cooler, why are we getting older?
