I vote yes. If we balk at spending $300 on legos then the terrorists have already won. Actually, I had forgotten that Legos were from over there. I thought we invented all the cool stuff. oh well.

You know what would be good? If the Arabs constructed an Israeli flag out of legos and then kicked it apart on TV. ...while wearing Nikes.

It is a little known fact that Copenhagen is built entirely out of Legos.

Where's Kmac? We need his vote to have a quorum.

Yeah, kmac has been quiet. I'm wondering if he was putting a Tutu on our lord and savior and got caught by one of his kids. Kids will "dime you out" in a microsecond. (I learned "dime you out" by watching the bravo channel). Then Mrs. Kmac put the hammer down or something.

I imagine him just staying under the radar for a while. But he's out there. We can be sure of that.

After much deliberation, I vote Yes.

Free speech is not cheap, but I shudder to think of a world where you can't have an Imperial Star Destroyer on display in your living room.

Operation Biscuit? This is what the internet pulled up for me:

"I was getting a brief on Operation Biscuit the other day and realized two of the objectives of the mission were code named butter and gravy.

So I asked what inspired the names.

“I’m getting ready to go home on leave and I guess I’m thinking what I’m going to eat when I get there,” said Capt. John Stubbs, commander of 3rd Battalion’s Charlie Company."

Similar idea to what Captain Stubbs is expressing in your quote. Biscuits make me think of oven-fresh, home-baked goodness, which is how I will always think of the Empire.
