There is a great site I read everyday called "Gizmodo". Its a tech blog and where I find a lot of cool stuff. But this week they have been reporting from the Lego factory - yes - the damned mothership of Lego greatness.

You need to go check out all of the stuff they have been reporting on and showing off in videos. Including a tour of the "Lego Vault" where there is one of EVERY Lego set ever sold in the world. If watching that doesn't take you back to your youth...
Also, there is a great Q&A about all kinds of things I've wondered about Lego
So go check all there awesome coverage out right now on "the man's" dime.
And now for something Lego and Star Wars Funny

Thursday morning I mentioned a cinnamon bun that I'd thought was oddly tasty considering it had lived most of its life in a plastic wrapper.
The reason I bought it was because while looking for something to eat. When I approached the plexiglassed faced foodbox I saw it leaning against that twirly metal thingy and on the wrapper it read, "Vending Machine Indutries Pastry of the Year".

Wow, if the people that fill these boxes thinks its their best pastry product, I gotta try that.
And I'll be damned if the "Big Tex Cinnamon Roll" by Cloverhill isn't surprisingly fresh and awesome tasting. Unfortunately it has only one other time since appeared in the station's vending machine, and that time I didn't have three quarters.
So, after talking about it, some llsteners emailed me that my mention of it had gotten them to try it (pic from John B of Jacksonville, who blamed me for "ruining his diet") and links to where they can be bought in mass, and not from a machine - thanks to Michael I for those.
I do suggest them. Not on a daily basis or anything. But after you do something good at the job, or you need a "pick me up" - reward yourself.
Sam's Club - probably by the pallet
And of all places - EBAY!
