Melting Bricks - A melting pot of bricky things.

Horoscopes - August 2007

By Joubarc

Aries: You should not talk to anyone about your idea of putting 12v inserts on RC train tracks. This only works for straight tracks.
Taurus: You will read about 60 pages of the latest BrickJourna before realizing it’s not actually something different than BrickJournal.
Gemini: LEGO will finally react to your numerous complains about the bizarre price differences between countries on Shop@Home: they will discontinue Shop@Home in your own country.
Cancer: Your plans for a big nighttime Great Ball Contraption gathering will be thwarted when you discover LEGO does not produce glow-in-the-dark balls.
Leo: LEGO’s 75th birthday will make you forget about your own birthday completely.
Virgo: You will print all your MOC pictures and put them on a real LEGO brick shelf.
Libra: A dream will convince you to make huge donations to all LEGO community sites you regularly visit.
Scorpio: Your new remote-controlled dinosaur will be no match for the neighbour’s dog.
Sagittarius: You will report your issues to LEGO ambassadors, but they would really prefer to hear only about LEGO-related issues.
Capricorn: After spending an entire month building a giant remote-controlled robot, you will realize that you can’t control 19 power functions motors with only 4 channels.
Aquarius: You won’t be able to get rid of the RC tracks that come with each train station you purchase.
Pisces: You will dedicate this month to put copies of your LEGO pictures on every new picture site available.

Horoscopes - July 2007

By Joubarc

Aries

You’ll move your LEGO site to another hosting company, but the new one won’t be more reliable.

Taurus

You’ll select a LEGO set as the allowed one personnal item for your adventure trip, but you will take en empty box by mistake.

Gemini

Your new office cubicle will be as small as a vignette.

Cancer

You’ll plan to attend so many LEGO events during the summer that you will mix all the dates.

Leo

You won’t touch a brick this month as you will be too busy with Harry Potter.

Virgo

Don’t eat that lettuce - it grows hair.

Libra

You’ll search your entire LEGO collection for hours for a 2 x 3 red brick to photograph, but you won’t find any.

Scorpio

Your prayers for more female minifigs will be unanswered. Unless you call Tina a minifig; then, yes, you’ll get some.

Sagittarius

The LEGO Company will suddenly release a set at the planned date instead of months in advance, which will confuse you greatly.

Capricorn

You won’t be able to make up your mind about what to bring to the LEGO event you organize. A big mosaic maybe? Or not?

Aquarius

You’ll wonder if Indiana Jones sets will contain a Lara Croft minifig. Hint: go watch the movies.

Pisces

You’ll set up your LEGO blog to update automatically when you’re on holiday, but it won’t quite work.

Horoscopes - June 2007

By Joubarc

Aries: One of your minifigs will definitely frown at you.
Taurus: You’ll be invited to participate in a new show, Big Brother: LEGOland edition.
Gemini: You’ll brag about buying a foreign castle, having it shipped to you brick per brick, and rebuilding it in your garden. Just change the subject when people ask its size.
Cancer: You will paint your cat’s legs green so that you can call it Mobile Devastator. It’s a very suitable name.
Leo: Stars don’t know what set “revolutionized” your building, but they could venture a guess on which one will cause your spouse not to talk to you for a week.
Virgo: You will start using garbage as cement and your city will collapse.
Libra: Your bad habit of glueing LEGO together will at last turn against you when you buy the new key rack.
Scorpio: You will bring a Mars Mission missile launcher at your office, and let’s just say missiles won’t be the only ones to be fired.
Sagittarius: LEGO’s reputation may be the best, but it won’t help your own reputation that much.
Capricorn: Trading skeletons for aliens should be easy, but why on earth do you want to do that?
Aquarius: You will mark all your train tracks in preparation of a big LEGO display, but that’s pointless: you will be the only one bringing RC track, and there is not a chance anyone else would take them.
Pisces: Your new pirate ship won’t float. Next time, don’t test it in a deep muddy lake.
