Could I get in trouble for...

You never played with legos as a child?

Please find the toy being refered to as Legos - on the Lego website. It's Lego this, and Lego that. Legos - will actually only be used as the possesive - i.e. Of Lego.

It's not here in the UK that we just call them Lego. It's ONLY in the US they get called Legos.

I've solved a conundrum however. The 'S' that dictates the plural of Mathematics which the US throws away in shortening it to 'Math' rather than 'Maths' - has now turned up, unharmed, in Legos. I was worrying about it.

Maybe check to see if there is a middle school in your area who could use them. My son was in the FIRST Lego™ League in middle school, and loved programming the mindstorm.

My past kid self is envious of your current kids self. I wish we had the mindstorm when I was a kid.. (not too long ago).

Forget us and our PMs (private messages, not post-menstrual), give it to your neighbours. If they have a lot of kids, I'm sure the parents would really appreciate any thoughtful gifts they can get.

Giving it to us or to a grown-up would be a bit of waste, imo.

Why would you want to get rid of them!!

I still have all mine.. Legos are something you treasure and keep. They don't make them like they used to and they're getting crappier all the time.
