clearly their treachery with the color gray has not dissuaded me from spending money on legos. i went back to the pick-a-brick wall in burlington today (and since when did burlington mall's parking lot get as cutthroat as the one at south shore plaza?), and did pretty well for myself. my latest creation required more 1x2 clear bricks, so i got myself 50 more of those, out of a total of 443 bricks crammed into a large slurpee cup. less than 3 cents a brick. a little over 4 if you don't count the 172 1x1 flat clear yellow tiles, and only count the larger bricks. i'd have been so dangerous as a kid if this store existed... damn...
