Don't forget to include Montreal in that list. This is good stuff (scroll down to see the video)... what does an icy hill + multiple vehicles/2 buses/a police car/a large truck/a snowplow truck equal? One hella funny video. http://ottawacitizen.com/news/national/this-viral-video-from-montreal-puts-ottawa-traffic-problems-to-sham Edited December 6, 2016 by gregpj my bad, not Ottawa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone had success convincing people to not want one... Spent 10 minutes talking my 8 year old out of it. There's a couple of videos out there about how complicated these things are, and how quickly kids are tossing them aside because they're losing interest in them quickly. This is not something for a 2 year old. The 2 year old will just hit it, stick it in it's mouth, and then forget it in a few days. Even my 8 year old though, would not have the patience for this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinemaps Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Paying retail for shipping boxes.I lucked out last night. Had an item that had just sold fit perfectly into a box for an item that arrived that day. I QFLL'd the shipping box. To keep with the thread, tho, I hate it when an item ends up weighing just over 16 oz (say, 1 lb 1 oz) because I can't find a box that will fit the item AND keep it at/below 16 oz. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's quite a bit of flap-cutting you can do to get it to go under 16.0 lbs Believe me, I've done it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLL preparations, making 3 presentation boards, working on some final robot missions, then teaching 2 classes and racing to the Friday night judging sessions to make sure all 9 kids behave and do well.

I'm looking forward to it, but I'll use this post as a placeholder for a complaint if it turns into a headache or another expensive hobby.

Not expensive at all (unless you count the cost of reams of paper and tons of black markers). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I inspected the Starter Pack I picked up at Meijer yesterday very carefully as well. Interestingly enough it had double seals on one side, marked with 'WKR'. I believe they opened a previously sealed unit to insert the Supergirl polybag and then resealed that side. "They" being TLG. Mine turned out to be fine btw.
