So enthralled was I by the evil lego I found yesterday, I searched for more. I found this.

I stumbled across this story whilst browsing thesun.co.uk (original article: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2002041.ece). It seems that some clever fellows have decided to modify the famous lego man and produce some characters of a more sinister nature.
A swathe of religious leaders are clamouring to have these toys banned. Apparently, the glorify terrorism and the holocaust. I don’t see it personally. Laughter is a universal medicine that heals many wounds and cures many malodies. When I saw these, I laughed. I thought themfunny. Are we foverer bound to complete solemnity over these subjects? Is a lego character going to turn some 8 year old child into a suicide bomber? No. It’s not. I remember being confronted by a bully at school, threatening to pound my face in over some triviality. I laughed in his face. and pushed passed him. I never had another days trouble from him. That’s my opinion – what’s yours.
I’ve been a bad boy. No updates for some time. My life has been, shall we say, a bit of a mess recently. I’ll not bore you with the details, but there has been little to smile about. One thing that did turn my frown upside down was the prizes I received from Chris Miller for winning his “Summer of Love” competition over at Lost Hemishpere. One of which I just have to show off, because I’m particularly happy with it.

A copy of Marvel Tales #2 from the actual 1965. Wow! As someone who’s developed a slight interest in comics over the last year or so, this is the sort of thing that is really appreciated. Reading the old stories was fun and educational. The language in particular was most amusing. Old people talk funny!
Thanks Chris, it’s really appreciated.
