Right now I am aggravated at the new PC game my son got for his bday. I was worried it would be too complicated for him, but he wanted it so badly. Sure enough, we have both been at wits end just trying to get the stupid Bionicle to jump over the lava river and save the Matoran. That's the very first thing and we can't get past it to do the other 1275 levels and stages. Why do I buy these things???? I hate for him to have such frustrations on his bday with something that was supposed to be fun.

are there cheats you can get for it? sometimes you can google the game name and see if there are cheats to help you out. how frustrating for both of you! happy birthday to your ds...hopefully, you can rent a movie or play a board game or do something to take a break from this complicated game. poor not!!

Oh no, why didn't I look all this stuff up before I bought it??? It says the game will be too difficult for kids under 8. He did just turn 8, but he hasn't spent years playing Playstations and Xboxes like his friends. We don't have any of that stuff, not even Gameboys. So he doesn't have any experience. It doesn't seem like there are too many cheats or hints out there, it's just going to take practice. Uggghhhh. Maybe if I tuck the box away in a week, he won't think about it too much.

Not1, I'm sitting here staring at the box of Bionicle that I have. Hasn't been opened yet but it's my #2's game. Let me ask him about it.

Not1, I just asked #2 and he told me to google for 'bionicle cheats for pc' and here's a site: link Also my #1 is telling me to tell you to read the manuel to see how the player moves, #2 says look at page 2. Also #2 says if you're stuck go to google.com and type in 'bionicle pc cheats'. Hope this helps.

Right now, I'm wondering if Sia is okay. I am also wondering what "the hold um torney" is...? My guess, vegas, cards? duh? (and, sorry, i know i'm making a fool of myself by asking this question, that's why i rarely post..but who cares anymore)

Right now I think Abby7 asked some good questions....just what is a hold um torney anyway? And I'm with you Abby, I bet it has to do with gambling and money. Oh, and Abby, I always ask dumb questions and make dumb foolish posts but I'm still feelin' the love around this place....so hang in there because it only gets better from this point on, okay!

Right now I am saying good morning to all, and telling Tabbyking to check her email and let me know if my email to her did not come through. I've been having strange and mysterious things happen with my sent emails. I think there is a Boggart in my computer. (P.S. Abby, I did't know what "hold um torney" was either!)

Right now - Mocha, tell your DSs thank you! We made it a little farther, but it's really hard for both of us. Not fun at all. To make matters worse, the other Lego thing I bought him has one piece that is just a little too short and the whole works keeps coming apart. Of all the thousands of Legos we have, we don't have a longer piece. He's moping and feeling like all his bday presents are a big failure.

Right now, Not1, you're welcome. Sorry we couldn't be more help. Tell him he's not supposed to have it all figured out the first try anyway, the fun is in trying to figure it out.

Right now I have what is probably a strange request considering the real needs of people here but it means a lot to me. I am looking for a sign to lift me from the blues. Just once I would like the sun to shine on my birthday and no snow on the ground. Every year the weather is bad on my bd. When I was in California it rained. The only time I had sun on my birthday was the 2 years I was in the Middle East. I was born on the coast of NC and it even snowed there the morning I was born. Anyway I know this sounds absolutely nuts but I believe in the power of prayer and the wisdom of the universe and if I could just have nice weather on Wednesday I would be so grateful. Needy and intermittently depressed... Gidget

Right now, I'm asking Not1 if she has some super glue?????DS and I have used it to make Lego pieces just a little longer or wider before.

Hmmm...Suits. That's an idea. DS did some customization and got it built to his satisfaction, so the crisis has passed for now. Legos, love 'em and hate 'em.

Right now, I am remembering one birthday when my mil gave my son this great Lego helicopter set. It took us together a week to put that baby together. Of course, he took it apart the next day to make other things! I hated legos for a long time after that.
