Since the Rogue is no longer avaiable, I'll have to "settle" with the R75, Black+Blue. Thanks for another cool game, Neatorama!

All I can say is Wow...

just...

Wow!

I saw these in the store and wanted some. Wife said no... :(

Sometimes, I think she just doesn't get it.

Leave it just like this - I hate change.

I read your site everyday.

Oh, maybe the login thing could use a bit of work, and I would like it to work better on my Blackberry... but other than that, I like the site. One of my favorite, so it is my favorite blog!

Yay, another Tokyoflash treasure hunt!

Pick me! Pick me!

Rogue, in black please!

I left this comment on curiousexpeditions:

I believe that this was taken at a nanotorium or sanitarium somewhere in America or Canada. Hot spring fed pools were very fashionable during the late 1800s, and were built all across the US. Their use was believed to cure many ailments from dry skin to serious diseases. Commonly, they were built in a style similar to this, and it was common for construction costs to rise near the million dollar mark - quite a lot of money now, an outrageous amount then. Some examples of these types of structures would be Saltair in Utah, the Bath House at Cedar Point Ohio, the Broadwater in Helena, Montana, adn the Santa Cruz Nanatorium in Santa Cruz California. Sadly, very few of them remain.

And while I am not sure what or where this is, I do know what it is not — This is definately not the Royal Pavilion, wrong color and the archictecture is different - the Pavilion has columns and details while these walls are smooth. The pavilion is made with stone, while this appears to be made of brick. Seeing as the picture came from England, it could be near the Brighton Pier, but I am skeptical — the architecture is just too different.

And while similar, this also isn’t Gripsholm Castle, as this building is rounded on the upper half and much smaller than the Castle. And the Castle has domes, not the onion spires.

The structure isnt a tent, like the ones in Haga Park in Sweden; it has too many details like the battlements.

Also not Saltair or Coney Island - this Structure is definately round (at least the top portion) while both Saltair and Coney Island are both more square. Both Saltair and Coney Island are huge structures; while our mystery building is much smaller.

My brother worked and Disney World for about 12 years, and for part of that time he was a driver on the monorail. He told me that the system that controls the monorail is called MaPo -- Ma(ry) Po(ppins). The reason is because profits from that movie were used to fund the original monorail. The system has been upgraded numerous times, but still has the original name.

This is really funny, and we should be more content with what we have. It really made me stop and think.

But, the more I thought about it the more I realized that if we all were content with what we have, innovation and creation would stop. It is simply part of the human condition, and I believe a necessary one.

For example, if everyone was content with the rotary phone, and just accepted that wires limited the use, then cell phones would have never come about. Same with transportation - if no one wanted a better way to get around, we'd still be riding horses.

Yay, another Tokyoflash hunt!

Rogue, in black if I win, please!

Yay, I made it! I sooooo hope that I win, Tokyoflash is AWESOME!

Rogue, please, in black!

My daughter has a Martha Stewart recipe for home-made marshmallows. They are totally wonderful -- so much better than store bought. And then if you melt some chocolate and drizzle it on them, or dip them into it, it is heaven on earth!

I would love the Rogue in Black! Thanks!

I would LLLOOOOOVVVVEEEEEEEE the Rogue in black.
