My daughter likes to build robots. I just wish she would do it more often… The model cars are cool though. You could make one that has a robot inside then you could remote control it and stuff

I tried to go to Hobby Town the other night and Ginny wouldn’t let me.

Michael- I got it at HobbyTown. I am very embarassed to admit that I went into HobbyTown.
Timm- We shall indeed compare notes. Except I don’t have any notes. Maybe you should just be my model car mentor.
Lynz (aka, foxcraft)- I will take an Aston Martin DB5. Any year. Also, an Aston Martin Vanquish V12. Also, you are awesome.
Tab- They really are fun, aren’t they?!

To all of you…I am not sure how you did these as children. There are tiny, tiny parts that need to be painted various colors and glued in exactly the right places with glue you could probably get stoned off of. And then there are Exacto knives. I am very sure I could never have done this as a child. You guys are awesome.

I love you. This is awesomer than awesome.

My hobbies = reading (until my eyes want to bleed), writing, guitar/piano, and laughing at your hilarity.

I’m really glad I’m friends with you and Kyle. You guys rule. Srsly.

You should build the Astin Martin you want, and give me what you build so that when I make my first million dollars off of my bestselling novel, I’ll buy that exact car for you to drive. Don’t worry–it’ll be full-sized, not the model.

I didn’t know they still made model cars. Where did you get that from?
I used to build model airplanes and hang them from the ceiling.
Bullet holes can be made with a magnifying glass.
