Sand blue saddle, nice (there may have been one before, but I don't have one ). The dark tan bush is great as well, and the more I look at it the less bothered I am about the printing on the horse.

I've had the same problem. I rigged the larger trolls (the sand green and tan ones) to work as cavalry, but I think a Dewback from the Star Wars series would work as well (though that would be an expensive option). Here's what I did:

Love the new sets, though I'll probably only be able to afford to buy the cheapest two (as long as I get an ostrich ). Is it just me or does printing the cloth on the horse make it less adaptable to other uses? Sure it might work in a Castle MOC, but I can't see it being useful for a horse ranch or Western MOC or something similar.

So you're back into LEGO now VBBN? I'll see what I have and let you know. Also, it might be helpful to post better pictures of what you have to trade (sort and take pics of related bricks, etc.).

I turned 22 in October, but like everyone else LEGO allows me to feel like a kid again (at least until I remind myself I have deadlines to comply with and lab reports to write).

I've got gray hair and I'm only 22. Here's a pic of my niece and me at our Christmas celebration a couple days ago. Merry Late Christmas everyone, and a happy new year!

Saw both Sherlock Holmes and Avatar on the same day (Christmas). I must say, Avatar's sheer visuals blew me away; Sherlock Holmes was a good but not great film, and it's hard to dislike anything Robert Downey Jr. does nowadays. The story for Holmes was a bit on the foolish side, but I'm interested to see where the sequel will take us.

I'll reserve judgement on the sets until I see clearer, more final pictures, but some of them do look promising (the impulses and dark tower specifically). I'm loving the new wizard, now I can swap him out with the ghetto green wizard I made myself using a Forestman torso and green wizard hat.

Toys R Us has the Home One set on sale for $79.99 (a savings of $30), and the Duplo sets are buy 2 get the third free. US only as far as I can tell.

Please tell me you got this at Toys R Us, and thus the $4 mark-up? Battlepacks are great and all, but if that's the new MSRP then I'm not buying. I'll probably be the only one to take a stand like this, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Prices have gotten out of control in my opinion, so until they do something about it I'll have to make do with what I have. Having said that, it is a nice little set for those that can afford it.

Aww man, I got all mixed up with the time zones and didn't realize the deadline had passed already. I was just about to post mine when I saw that it had been closed; oh well, good luck to those who entered!

No membership fees involved with my gym either considering it's part of the school (well I guess tuition is one big fee ); and of course you could always build your own gym as some other members have done. And those exercises are great, but sometimes you need a little more resistance; you'll certainly be strong doing only what you mentioned, but the physical appearance may not be what you were hoping for.

Isn't ipod a bit limiting? You should have said MP3 player, but that's just me. When walking to class or running, I listen with my MP3 player. At home I have some speakers connected to my PC, so I usually just listen that way. In the car, I tend to listen to my MP3 player (I have an auxiliary jack), or a CD since I it has a 6-CD changer (which I admit is probably a little outdated at this point); I took my antenna off my car, so radio doesn't really come into the picture (although I'll listen occasionally through my MP3 player).

Yep, I go to my univsersity's gym 3 times a weeks; I've been cutting down/skipping a lot lately though do to my hectic schedule this semester (seems like something is due everyday of the week). When I have more free time I usually try to go Monday through Friday and rest on the weekends. I was pretty skinny in high school as well; I played soccer, so we mainly just focused on the lower body and cardio back then. When I went to college I decided to try and beef up a little. I've gained about 15 pounds (~7 kg) in my almost four years of working out here, but I only recently started getting serious these past couple years. I'm not huge by any stretch of the imagination, but I do like the way I look more now then back then when I was a twig from the waist up. Working out for me is kind of soothing in a weird way, it relieves a lot of stress and for some reason I just like that feeling of being sore the next day; you have tangible results and when you move up in weight a little it makes you feel like you've accomplished something.

Hot Chelle Rae (that's the name of the band). Listening to their entire album called Lovesick Electric. I'm really liking them (seems like something Big Cam might be interested in).

Absolutely love the potted plants at the entrance, reminds me of aloe vera or something. The pots are ingenious, thought I would have thought of something that simple. Overall wonderful job, I'm sure this is going to top the official version when it comes out in detail and creativity.

Thanks much for the info, I'm glad to see those two characters get more screen time, they are some of my favorite (remaining ones ).

I don't have ABC at my apartment, but I have been watching this show on their website the day after it airs. I have to say, I'm really intrigued and continue to look forward to each episode. Having said that, this is no LOST. The dialogue sometimes borders on downright unbearable, and to me it just comes off as a LOST lite (a lesser version that the original). I get this sense that the producers and writers are trying too hard to be "cool", what with the lesbians and random expletives thrown in at times. And can anyone care to explain the ending to last Thursday's episode? The whole scene just didn't feel right for some reason, maybe it was the weird music that was playing in the background that made the whole thing surreal.

Is this for the DSi or DS Lite? I'd get it for the tiles, but a case for the DS seems a little superfluous (at least for my needs).

Obviously the title is a hint in itself, therefore making the new set a burning building that allows for infinite playability with all those firefighter sets. Seriously speaking, it will most likely be out of my price range if the first two numbers in the set are 10---, but I'm interested none the less to see what it might be.

Breaking Benjamin (the entire Dear Agony album). I'm really starting to love this album, almost every song is a winner in my book.

Looks like something straight from TLG, great job! I would definitely pick one of these up if they were available, love the little details like the pumpkins and crooked tiles. Now who's going to build an Easter themed house?

I've also had aspirations at times to create a whole mini city with snow, ice rink, etc. out of LEGO, but for now it's just in my head. The Winter Toy Shop would be a great set to base it off of; snow is hard to convey though, especially since it's usually so smooth.

+1 to Striker, always a great trader as usual.

Living to 100 really is an awesome accomplishment, I'll be lucky to see 50. So, what LEGO set are you getting for her birthday?
