Forget your pet - what's YOUR favorite toy?
I love my iPod Mini (green). I love my cell phone (Motorola MPx200). I love my RCA Lyra A/V Jukebox. I love my handheld Yahtzee game. A 42-year-old kid; that's me!

4. My Palm, cameras & GPS
I love the digi for quick shots, but I also love taking out the 35mm and shooting.

I'm not quite sure how I managed to function without my Palm in the past.

The GPS is great because it allows our family to go geocaching.

17. I just wish I could say it was my design
Edited on Thu May-05-05 01:06 PM by TlalocW
But I learned it from instructions put out by a guy named David Grist, from England, who passed away earlier this year. Go to his website at www.davidgrist.com though to see some more of his work. One of the pictures on there is an X-Wing fighter, which is pretty cool.

There are a ton of balloon twisters out there who do stuff like this and have balloon jams. I've never been, but I've seen pictures of everything from jukeboxes, lifesize caricatures of people, a "working" three horse merry-go-round that was over 15 feet tall (it would spin, but you couldn't sit on the balloon horses), and a 20 foot tall Trojan Horse.

At two years of experience, I'm still a neophyte in my book.

16. Coolness!
Nice work!

I can't do that at all... I keep popping the silly things when I try. I still keep trying, though. :)
