 Geoff Boucher, a self-admitted fanboy and blogger for the L.A. Times recently decided to share the story of his co-worker Aaron Curtis and how he plans on celebrating his 40th birthday. "As I officially begin middle age, I plan to celebrate my 40th birthday next month not with a sordid extramarital affair, a hyper-compensating hot rod or some personal quest for cosmic meaning. I will celebrate with the ultimate power in the universe -- as rendered in 3,803 interlocking Lego bricks." That's right, Mr. Curtis will be celebrating four decades of life on this planet by not only purchasing the new Lego Death Star, but by also assembling it as well. To find out more about what inspired this fellow fanboy to choose this way to celebrate a birthday, check out the entire story on the L.A. Times link above. |
