Remember all those days as kids building stuff with LEGO™? Ever seen the bible told through LEGO™? Check out the work this guy has done on his site “The Brick Testament”, he has even released books detailing some of these biblical stories.
Some are very amusing e.g check out one of the biblical laws here
I remember my 1970’s Lego blocks - they were fun!

Finally bit the bullet and have purchased the new “bits” and built a new PC (with assistance from Snork!) My old PC was built when I was in the UK in 2001! - i.e AMD 1.25GHz, 512k RAM, 40GB Hard drive etc…. it was about to die and the fans sounded like they were about to take off!
So here is the spec of my new toy (cost about $1200NZD with Vista Premium and Office s/w included in that price) : hmmm more power…..

You’ll notice I have a TV tuner card in the mix - next project is to get it to work so I can get Freeview (DVB-S or DVB-T) and record TV onto my hard drive. A bit of a mission I believe with New Zealand specs using the latest codecs and standards for HD transmission.
Will let you know how I go with setting this up…..

I just installed a nice little tool on this site called Snap Shots that enhances links with visual previews of the destination site, interactive excerpts of Wikipedia articles, MySpace profiles, IMDb profiles and Amazon products, display inline videos, RSS, MP3s, photos, stock charts and more.
Sometimes Snap Shots bring you the information you need, without your having to leave the site, while other times it lets you “look ahead,” before deciding if you want to follow a link or not.
Should you decide this is not for you, just click the Options icon in the upper right corner of the Snap Shot and opt-out.
e.g mouse over the All Blacks site
