My most recent LEGO build, a bird’s nest, revolves around a tan squiggly piece used in the nest itself. Check out more of the build and a look behind the scenes below!

Should Everyone be Treated Equally?
Does justice always mean that people are to be treated equally? This may perhaps seem to be the case. If I were a judge whose job it was to try two people for murder today, and if the respective juries found both equally guilty, would it be right for me to give one person sentence of death and the other a life sentence in jail? Certainly not! However, if I were to give both the same sentence, would that mean that I am treating everyone equally?
Baking a LEGO Cake: It’s All in the Frosting
Here’s one cake that it sure wasn’t a piece of cake to make! But the end result was worth it, 8 or so inches around, 2 inches tall, and best of all: 0 calories! Read on to catch a glimpse of the inner workings of this LEGO creation.

The Filo Morado
Without doubt my largest ship ever, the Filo Morado sails the seven seas in style! The smooth cut of the hull on front allows for swift sailing while her canvas catches the night breeze.
Truth or no Truth?

If it is not – if one thing can be one way for me, and another way for you, without any contradiction – then language is meaningless, because it, too, can mean one thing for me, and another thing for you. This makes the theory of non-objective truth difficult to speak about. But let’s try.
Hail Caesar!
Those who are about to die…
…salute you!
An Adventure of the Olden Days
So there I was. Ahead of me, the light cast a white glare over the rough stone wall. I fumbled in my pocket. Holding my flashlight carefully, I read the parchment again.
To the wanderer through this den,
Comes this friendly warning from our pen.
Follow the river down to the fall,
Curve a half circle, then climb the wall.
The third step is fatal, so only take two,
Follow instructions exactly – nothing else will do!
I took a deep breath. Follow the river down to the fall. What did it all mean? I held the flashlight up high. There was no river. On the contrary, I was hemmed in by two massive stone walls on either side of me. Behind me snaked the long corridor I had come through and in front of me a massive oak door calmly awaited my next move.
Top This! Roofs with LEGO Bricks
Building edifices out of LEGO bricks isn’t quite a piece of cake – it takes time and thought to come up with the best choices for the floors, walls, and – of course – the roof! There’s definitely no one roof fits all, but fortunately, there are dozens of great options when it comes to topping off your LEGO house! So let’s explore a few ideas!
