    @ Silvery - actually my bro is more of a mischievous one. He's also a playwrite and been in some TV shows and movies.

    @ Keneth - Cirque is not a regular circus by any means, it's a pretty breathtaking theatrical event.

    Although he writes plays, he's a playwright. :p

    And I know Cirque is more than your average circus, they pretty much have to be in this day and age.

    I still don't get it though. I have never been even remotely amused in a circus.

    I guess they haven't played with LEGOs as kids.

    I play with LEGOs as an adult. I sometimes drag my kid to the LEGO store to raid the components wall. It's becoming kind of an addiction. I don't care about the sets I'd rather get a container full of plant pieces wheels and cool clear pieces ... or whatever new thing they have that I don't. I've even got plastic drawer shelves in the living room and I've sorted and organized hundreds of pieces. In fact I'm avoiding the urge this very minute to go and see if they have something new ....

    Well it makes more sense - I have two sons and we've collected a fair amount of lego/megablox over the years. The sets usually come apart at some point which means a lot of spare pieces. I can download instructions off the net if I want and since I've sorted a lot of the pieces now we've got enough variety to build a lot of different things.

    The sets are expensive - you get a lot more pieces for your money if you buy them loose and then you can get extras of the really cool ones. You just have to be careful about how you arrange them in the containers so you get the most for your money.
