Legos should stick to making plain old legos and let the kids use their imagination instead of all the lousy prefab kits.

That set is a fan made set that is for sale.
The LEGO Company has a policy of no modern warfare (especially WW II) themed LEGO sets.

Seems like it's all centered in Griffith an Hammond. Or I guess we can say, it's staying north of 30.

Add Gary/Merrillville to the center of it.
The roof rack was buried on my truck when I got off work.
Snow up to the doors.
AWD is A-OK

Fever now at 99.5 degrees.

You know what would make you feel better?
Go clear off some driveways.
And a sammich. Make me a sammich.

I agree. Better use of imagination. Not just following a plan.



T, I don't know if this info it too late, I just got home. The roads in Gary/Merrillville are plowed, but traffic is slow. Treacherous intersections because of the compacted ice.
When I was driving down Broadway in both Gary and Merrillville, the visibility would flicker between a mile, and half a block.

As for how much we got in Merrillville, I just got done doing numerous driveways.
The snow was up to the top of my snow blower's inlet scoop. And I have a pretty good snow blower.

Left work like this.

But holy moly, I was too warm.

By the time I got to my truck, I was....

 

[actaeon277]

One day off.
Do I take my S&W model 60 out for a maiden voyage?
Or do I change the locks I just picked up, and reprogram the garage door opener?

Brand name of extreme hard cases for smartphones.
It's not otter box but called something else and it looks like your phone is encased in a brick (grey and orange).
It's a strong rubber type material and does not bend and will keep phone safe from water and drops.

A friend of mine had his phone in an Otterbox, run over by a dump truck at a job sight. The screen was broken on the phone, but nothing wrong with the Otterbox. Guess thats saying something.

They are and neither has want Jedi is looking for.

Otterbox armor series is not avaliable for the G2.
Armor Series Waterproof case for Galaxy S3 | OtterBox
And the LifeProof is only for the apple and S3 (Galaxy).

Any other ideas?
Looks like the OtterBox defender case is the next level down from the armor series.

Jedi does not expect any case to be able to protect against that.
More interested in being able to protect from a fall to a hard surface like this

My ballistic case works great. Dropped it twice on the corner.

Well, I was going to scan one of my Israel pics, but it turns out, I don't have the software to scan from my all in one. So, it's installing now.
