            I actually remember going to the early Lego site after we got the internet in 1999. Then I went on a forum and the internet has never been so awesome.

            btw, LMAO PEPSI.COM

                          The only site I used to visit back in the 90' was Joecartoon, which looked pretty fine though the crappy Pepsi site is also charming ^^

                              You'll find that that kind of reasoning applies to a surprising amount of things. I think they've got a word for that... lemme think.... o yeah, progress.

                              Though not all progress is good.

                                Like the progression of Bill Clinton to Bush, ya, that sucked.


                                That was probably the worst analagy ever.
