Steve's talking about his Legos made me remember my exstensive Lego collection from my senior year of highs school. i was into the pirate Lego system, and had the whole humongous Pirate Island thing going on, occasionally being attacked by some Lego Tie fighters i'd built. the pirates didn't stand a chance against the Dark Side of The Force.

i left my Legos behind when i went to college. when i returned for Christmas, my Legos were gone. in my absence, my uncle had lain claim to them and transported the entire Pirate Island to his house, only it wasn't Pirate Island anymore. it had become a guitar and the Sphinx. the pirates themselves had become an assortment of body parts in a glass jar. i haven't bought any Legos since.
