Heh, firecrackers in toy cars is always fun. (and stupidly dangerous)

[DesertFoxCat]

Whacking at 'em with a hammer is a lot safer.<br><br>I don't know about funner, though...

[Softpaw]

I still play with my cars & trucks, and Legos, and stuffed animals...

[Tavis]

I kinda stopped only after I had enough Lego to build more than accessories for the cars. But even then, it was still off and on sometimes, and arguably, I was still playing with toy cars after I built them. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>Alas, last time I was able to really play with either was last year.

I stopped getting more legos after they gained the bad habit of exploding and then imbedding themselves into feet.<br><br>Good thing the big legos don't hurt as much...

So Isolde is back to being green? Hmmm. If it were by assignment I'd have checked with DCS first. But then, if it were my assignment I wouldn't have done it yet either. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--><br><br>Oh, and I just realized: If Isolde is working for a <i>cable</i> news company, why does she call it "channel six"?

[Dr. Doog]

...it's a conspiracy.

[Caigan]

I figured after a while, just like dying your hair, your scales would go back to normal.<br><br>As for cable news/channel 6, my Discovery Channel is on channel 7, and some other cable channel is on channel 9...or waas that 11...one of the two.<br><br>Oh, and no new strip until I can fix my home network, i can't access ftp or most of my email boxes yet, so its a weee bit hard to update anything. =)

[Dr. Doog]

just because your channels are a certain way doesn't mean every channel is the same number everywhere.
