My oldest son, Paul has collected Lego Star Wars sets. He has quite a few. I love Legos. One day last week, I had my two little guys model an assignment with Legos for their art project.

I love public school. I get to socialize all day and I get to be on the computers a whole lot since the school has invested like $8,000 in computers and four seperate computer labs. Upstairs A-house, Upstairs B-House, Downstairs public, And the technology room also has about a dozen computers. I love my computer and mmy teachers allow me to have it at school for notes, etc. In Tech, We made rockets that can achieve about 100 meters of vertical distance. Mine achieved the highest at 249.7 meters. It also properly deployed the parachute and made a proper landing. I'm proud of it. It just shows what eight hours of careful work and planning paid off. So Agentarrow and RF advertisement were written on the stuff balls, which are designed to eject when the engine burns out and and the rocket reaches its apogee, deploying the parachute. Only one of the stuff balls survived. The rest exploded into fireballs and blew into a cloud of ash when they hit the ground. The one that survived burst into flames in my hand and was gone in seconds.

I have mostly older sets like for dragons/knights and pirates with the old space explorer sets as well. I really want the star destroyer and mind storms at-at.

Heh, Ha Ha. Two years ago, we made hot air balloons (mine sucked) and 2 liter soda rockets, basically it was a paper rocket built around a 2 liter, then we half emptied it, shook it hard, Pumped as much compressed air as the rocket could hold, then took it outside and let it go. Last year, we made bridges. Ours was called the "scott truss" bridge (no connection to scott on the forums) and it was the most efficent truss bridge made. Then we made electric model cars, mine sucked, and then we did boats and mag-lev trains. This year, we do actual rockets, Co2 cars, building 3D floorplans (I'm trying to get MR.Laursen to allow us to use RF as the planning tool) Then we make monster trucks and hover cars.
