Lego

Lego, our beloved childhood toy (well, at least mine). I still remember i have this whole box of lego bricks, and its my daily dose of play time.

Two years ago, Lego broke. Its kinda sad isn't it, even Lego have to face up to the cruel reality. Just read an article in Fortune(June 19,2006: "One Brick at a Time") of how Lego is cutting cost and check this out: "to save on manufacturing costs, Lego has cut the number of pieces, or "elements," as they are known-for example, eliminating different versions of a little chef, some with a mustache, some without....."

Its the kind of feeling that when we grow up, the things of the childhood is taken away cruelly. I mean like Lego is part of my fond memories of growing up as a 4 to 5 year old. My solitude, creative moments, possibly the building blocks of any existence of creativity I possess now.

Well, yeah its the same thing like Tundercats or Saber Rider or He-man doesn't show anymore. But to read and understand it as a adult now is a very queer feeling.
