    Every Lego set ever made

    I had the Space Galaxy Explorer from that website/video, but my favourite ship was the Starfleet Voyager: Well, my favourite instruction following one. I did make a cool millenium falcon. It was very rectangular and multicoloured, but had the basic features. :)

    Beck = Genius

    He and his wife are second generation scientologists. He's done concerts in the past that had their proceeds go to scientology schools.

    I find that rather hard to believe, but it's certainly possible. Depends on who the "next musician" is I guess. :) Trent Reznor released his own album on pirate bay himself, told everybody it's fine to copy for free, put it all under a free license, and still got $1.6million profit from it...

    It would be if we didn't live in a world where flatbed scanners are fairly cheap and widespread. Within an hour of release, it will be available for download somewhere. I guess most people really won't be bothered pirating a book of sheet music, but I don't really think making something most...

    I have more respect for what Trent Reznor did with Ghosts I-IV. Uploading the first album to pirate bay himself, releasing it all as creative commons, having commercial versions ranging from $5 for downloadable files all the way up to a $300 "ultra deluxe limited edition" that came with 2 audio...

    Anybody see this guy!

    I don't usually watch the kinds of tv channels that have late night psychics, so I'm not that bothered by it (well, I'm bothered by the concept of psychic scammers, I just don't encounter them enough to be that affected). The shows that piss me off far more are the hundreds of ghost hunting...

    That's it. It's over.

    Sorry, yep, the queensland way. I knew the education system is a little different in other states, but I didn't realise vic started high school in grade 7. (Checks wikipedia...) ACT, NSW, NT, Tas, Vic start high school in grade 7. Qld, SA and WA start in grade 8.

    That's it. It's over.

    The australian style is preschool (1 year, usually for 4-5 year olds), primary school (grades 1-7), high school (grades 8-12) then a college or university. Colleges tend to be smaller, but can give equal accreditation to a university (I don't know of any that do phd level, but the college I...

    Acquired a Kitten.. some advice please

    Always play with your bare hands. Never use something. :) Ok, cat scratches can spread diseases that kill humans, and even the smallest cat can hurt like all hell, but that's all part of the fun of cat ownership. It's like a mobile cactus that occasionally tries to kill you when you...
