I feel like i lost two weeks of my life here, still have the broken hand though. On today's show we hit some of the news that was missed since last week, Zombie Sightings, Google acting up and a fun bunch of links. Coffee Printers?  Beer engines? yup they're all here in tonight's fantastic, fanfare worthy  Return to health edition.

I love the idea behind the lego concept. Make anything out of small simple parts. The mindstorms are a boon for inventors everywhere but it doesn't end there. These iconic childs toys are loved by people everywhere young and old. I have been inundated with lego stories lately so i decided to dedicate as much of a show as i could to the topic. I was stunned by the response and believe me the stories won't stop here.
