The new Lego trains are pretty good, but it gets expensive after you have to buy the separate power functions and the track. That 7722 set was my first Lego train set, too. I still have the locomotive and tender built still, but the rubber parts around the wheels have gotten old and cracked.

Those are amazing - I always have had a LEGO train fetish, and those tank cars are spot on! Thanks. My original design was to build a black tank car for flammables, the ones that usually carry crude or ethanol or gasoline, but apparently the large curved bricks which form the main body of the tank are very rare in black. I had a hard enough time finding enough in white. The Maresk shipping containers are spot-on as well! I'm really trying not to dig out my LEGOs and start building again... I have little free time as it is. The Maersk train was an official set that I got a few years back, and it's pretty good, but I've been wanting to design and build these tank cars for a while now. Luckily, I found some clear labels at work that I used to print the decals

Just built these tank cars for the LEGO train to go around the christmas tree:

they finally posted the stars of the lid brooklyn show. that drone during december hunting... was amazing, especially because i was right in front of one of the speaker stacks
-
i am going to this. i'm really excited, only seen them live once before.

Can't believe nobody's commented on how awesome this is. Also reminds me of a time as a kid when I got really into lining up dominos and doing elaborate Rube Goldberg things with them. the ending was a guillotine that chopped off a lego man's head (the all red bit on the table)

I have loved building with Lego since I was a little kid. I have tons of 90's sets from space to city to pirates... I even took to building giant Rube Goldberg machines with my Lego and some marbles. This was my best one, maybe built when I was around 6 - 7th grade: Then I really got into the Technic super cars. I've been trying to collect them for a while now. These are the one's I've been able to get so far:

i've always been a big fan of Chimay, and i recently found this in my local bottle king, the Chimay Doree, which is usually reserved for the monks themselves and visitors to the abbey and local inn:

probably not strictly "ambient", but jonsi & alex's "riceboy sleeps" is one of the most gorgeous albums in the ambient vein in my opinion

the sound on mine is fucked, the volume knob is basically useless. the electronics just probably needs to be cleaned. when it is working, sound is decent. i don't think mine has an output. anyway, on topic, how did i miss the fact that arts & crafts re-released the two k.c. accidental albums on 2 x cd and 2 x LP?? these are 2 of my most favorite albums!! -

nice! a friend of mine gave me this newcomb a few years back: -
i love this album, along with "waist deep seas of milk". and brian, your "cursive light" album is beautiful as well. hardcore ambient. my favorites have to be: koda - movements early stars of the lid and most of hakobune's albums
-
haven't seen either of those, that i can recall. there are a ton of 80s movies that i've seen as a kid but can only remember bits and pieces. real genius stuck with me though, and when i was telling my wife we should buy it while shopping the other day, there it was in the bargain bin for $5!
-
real genius agreed. after becoming educated in engineering / chemistry / physics and watching the movie again, the vast majority of the "science talk" in the movie is believable, meaning not total mumbo jumbo shit movie talk.

good question, especially since wiki says that "75 percent of adult patients are women, although migraine affects approximately equal numbers of prepubescent boys and girls".
-
you're right. while there is no pain involved with my aura, it is a harbinger of pure shit. just imagine having no pain right now but KNOWING, with absolute certainty, that in 30 minutes you're head will be decimated with pain.
-
yeah my eyesight has been bad since i was in 3rd grade but i didnt get my first migraine until i was 23 or so. i just wonder if having contacts in every day with vision as bad as mine (-8.0) fucks with my brain. glasses are no better because they have to be like coke bottles.
-
this sounds like my sister-in-law, almost spot on. she went through the MS testing and everything. they even found lesions on her brain, but ultimately said no to the MS. her worst episode involved her being at home watching the kids (young kids) and having a very bad episode, finally managing to call my brother and mumbling into the phone trying to communicate until he figured out something was wrong... :/ edit: i dunno if it is related or not but my eyesight is really bad and sometimes i wonder if my contacts have something to do with it or something, because i often get regular headaches that feel like they are in the back of my eyeballs. i also might have keratoconus, which is something that can cause high pressure in the eyes, so i am sure that doesn't help.
