This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Mold-A-Ramas by ndsax01
Oh, the unforgettable smell of melted wax transformed into a zoo animal, dinosaur, or the U-505 (to name a few) before your very eyes. I grew up near the Brookfield Zoo and got a mold every so often. Our dog eventually chewed it up and I was back to square one. Now that I have kids, I use them as cover to feed my questionable addiction to try and collect all of them. We have every mold currently available in the Chicago area* and Milwaukee. Getting the ones at the Como Zoo in St. Paul may have been the reason behind our recent trip to the Twin Cities. The Henry Ford Museum in Detroit is now in my crosshairs...
*Though not "technically" Mold-A-Ramas, I recently found out the Volo Auto Museum has two machines that produce Disney characters. Hot diggity dog!
