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. There is enough other content on both sides of the coin to keep the show fresh. * Back Channel Links Tumblr Blog Grinds (http://caffination.tumblr.com) * The RSS Feed for this Podcast (http://www.caffination.com/feed/) Tech Cruft * NaNoWriMo: Storm Draft Chapter 1 (http://www.paulrjmuller.com/storm/storm-chapter-1-7/)! * Lego Historical Caricatures (http://www.wackyarchives.com/featured/historical-figures-in-lego.html) * Scale Lego Aircraft Carrier (http://www.likecool.com/Lego_Aircraft_Carrier--Other--Gear.html) * Lego Security wristband (http://www.slipperybrick.com/2008/10/lego-security-bracelet-for-kids/) * LED Bathlight is smarter than people (http://www.slipperybrick.com/2008/11/led-bath-light-does-it-all/) * Lego Ferrari F1 (http://www.slipperybrick.com/2008/10/amazing-lego-ferrari-f1/) * Lego Radar Rings (http://www.gadgetvenue.com/lego-radar-rings-10305832/) * Lego Coffee Table (http://www.core77.com/blog/materials/ceo_lego_table_5611.asp) * DIY HDD Clock (http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/09/diyer-constructs-artsy-wall-clock-from-spare-hdd-parts-tells-a/) * Ye Olde Google (http://www.mopo.ca/2008/11/ye-olde-google.html) * Fish, Star Wars, (http://www.ohgizmo.com/2008/11/09/r2-d2-aquarium-what-cant-an-astromech-do/) and Christmas * Video Link: John Williams Tribute (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk5_OSsawz4) Stunning work Caffeine & Food Section * Toast on the Dark Side (http://www.ohgizmo.com/2008/11/07/vader-toaster-starts-your-morning-off-on-the-dark-side/) * Lego's Make Coffee (http://www.singleservecoffee.com/archives/006055.php), is there anything they can't do? * Snack and Pack (http://foolishgadgets.com/200810/snack-stack-utensils/) Utensils * Lego Mindstorm assisted coffee (http://mindstorms.lego.com/nxtlog/ProjectDisplay.aspx?id=3ce3c202-776e-42dd-beb5-a6275110eeff) * Patent on Plastic?
