Hi all,
Life is pretty strange and unsettled right now, but I just wanted to share a [url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2020/04 ... 135078002/]positive story[/url] I saw about our favorite toy company. LEGO has re-tooled some of their factories to mass-produce clear face shields for healthcare workers, and are making 13000 of them a day. The story also notes they donated $50 million to various charities working in the current crisis, including one that supports education for kids.
Anyway, it made me proud to be a supporter of this company.
In a related story, Brickworld is hosting a [url=https://brickworld.com/brickworld-virtual]virtual con[/url] this weekend. Follow the link for details, but you can interact with featured builders via Zoom.
