Just read Neil Gaiman's American Gods. I've actually been to Lookout Mountain, Rock City, and Ruby Falls. Still, haven't gotten any new LEGOs since the white Bionicle guy with the sword....

I saw that one yesterday while I was shopping birthdaypresents... But I didn´t buy any Lego! I got the "Kind of Blue"-Album for 14.99 DM!!! That´s a smasher, I think!

Not sure of the conversion, but I do know that most CDs over here are around $18... $12 if you're lucky and know where to shop...

Well, it´s aprox. 7.00$. That´s the cheepest bargain you get in regular shops... Sometimes they´ve got stalls selling CD´s for 5 - 10DM (2.50-5.00$) but then the CD´s aren´t the kind you´d want to buy.. Oh, you can get good classical CD´s for that price...

That is good. Personally there should be a price cap on CD's since they're so cheap to make. Paying $20 for something that took $0.50 to make seems a rip off. Oh well. I have seen them being sold on the side of the road out of the back of someone's car for $5. Seems a little shady to me, though.

There´s a vast market with homeburned CD´s in Germany now... Nobody does it of course, but if you know the right people... perticularly children... They´ll tell you "my big brother´s got a CD burner, and I can get you ....and so on... 5 DM is the limmit... (aprox. 2.50 $) I think it was 2.17DM for 1$ today...

Oh, we know someone across the road who'll do it for free...and you can also copy them onto your PC's harddrive too.
Not that I ever do. But then again, my computer's only just been fixed, and it's at home
