Lego man to the rescue!
Submitted by imaginary liz on August 8, 2007.
With a picture like this, how could I not post something about the fact that an 8-foot tall Lego man was found bobbing in the sea?
The full story from Reuters:
A giant, smiling Lego man was fished out of the sea in the Dutch resort of Zandvoort on Tuesday.
Workers at a drinks stall rescued the 2.5-meter (8-foot) tall model with a yellow head and blue torso.
"We saw something bobbing about in the sea and we decided to take it out of the water," said a stall worker. "It was a life-sized Lego toy."
A woman nearby added: "I saw the Lego toy floating toward the beach from the direction of England."
The toy was later placed in front of the drinks stall.

I think we should print up light blue t-shirts that say "No real than you are" on them.
Who's with me?

He looks so kind and gentle playing with those children. Here he looks a little menacing. Is he crushing her head?

What's the deal with the "No real than you are" on its torso?
