I've admitted this before, I am a big Lego fan (for the kids, of course!). I just saw this Eiffel Tower in the latest catalog. 3428 pieces, almost 4' in height, built to scale from the real tower's original blueprints ... I so need (yes, need) this one!
And to think, the French originally planned to dismantle it after the world's fair in 1889... it'd be like George Lucas only doing a _play_ of "Star Wars" and there never being Lego Millennium Falcons or cute little Lego Darth Vaders...
I believe there is a connection between these bricks and OOP..

I find that that playing Lego for 10 minutes is a great way to take a break.
