Quick Hit: Bitz from unlikely sources

Here's the big secret: Lego.  These little wonders made the ultimate sacrifice to Gork & Mork (or is it Mork & Gork?).  They really fit the bill for exactly what I needed though.  The point is keep a squinty eye open for interesting things that can be used in you builds, ya never know.
