    Barbie reports that she will not drop her divorce litigation against Ken. As many of you know Ken ran off with Mitch over 3 years ago, Barbie also commented she is very happy with her new boyfriend, G.I. Joe who is currently overseas fighting COBRA in Afghanastan.

    I have two hands up, so I'm typing with my prehensile...male...appendage.

    OH, yeah, never mind, women have feet too.

    Anyways. Erector sets. Lincoln Logs. Tinkertoys! Legos by the metric assload. 1950s vintage Lionel model train (engines, stock, tracks, trackside accessories, you name it). Electronics. Model rockets. Plastic models.

    Anything by the Pythons. Most BBC SF and comedy. (Fawlty Towers still makes my ROFL, although it seems insanely dated.)

    I guess I'm a stereotypical IT geek.
