I am such a huge Lego nerd that words can not explain. Soooo I've decided to use my favorite blog site CCD.com as an outlet to get some of this stuff that I see every day, built out of bricks, out of my skull and onto the blogosphere where it can't hurt my cerebral cortex. Each month I'll be posting the best of the best hoping to inspire the Lego maniac in each of you...young and old. Enjoy!
Larry Lars offered up his heart....umm...hearts this Valentine's Day, all made of Lego. We heart his work here at CCD.
A shout out to Lego Iconic regular follower, Edson, for forwarding us this post on Kotaku which spotlighted the talented work of Flickr poster Pecovam. A lot of the builder's work involves Video Game inspired custom painted Lego Minifigs....and that's a mash-up that makes us proud.

This week was the second episode of True Blood season 3, and boy is shit getting crazy.... Nazi werewolves, vampire kidnappings, family reunions, and drug busts made for one pretty sick episode. Kate "Reality Check" Jones will be starting her recaps for the show this week, but there were two interesting tidbits of True Blood related info I thought I should share with you.
Deborah Ann Woll is the hot red headed actress that play s newbie vampire Jessica. We profiled her in OHC of the Day last week, and she seems to be becoming a very intergral part of the show this season. Well, Jessica wants to learn about how a vampire should act... so instead of waiting for Bill Compton to teach her, she is hitting the web!!! Jessica Hamby has started her own blog, which you can check out here. This is a really cool site that provides supplemental information about this seasons characters. Check in on Jessica and see what its like to learn a whole new lifestyle as one of the nightwalkers.
Next, here is something that took me completely by surprise. I had heard of a video that was circulating the web that was a sort of "tribute" song about Sookie Stackhouse by West Coast rapper Snoop Dogg. Entitled "Oh Sookie", Snoop professes his love for Bon Temps hottest waittress, and kicks some verses on how he ain't afraid of Bill Compton and his crew. I thought it had to be a joke, but I found the video and watched it. It was mildly entertaining, and then I dismissed it. But then...
After last nights episode, the video roled... on HBO!!! All the people who watched the show were now watching this soon to be viral video, and Facebook and Twitter started popping with people expressing their love for the song. So you know I had to bring it to you guys. How could I resist showing a video of Snoop rapping with 6 "Sookie" like dancers in front of Merlottes and asking Sookie to bring her girl Tara with her so he could " Give her some Eggs in her mouth"... hysterical. Check the video out and let us know what you think.
It's Summer Time Bitches... well almost! I figured I would just check back in and put you on to a few tunes that are sure to be pumping on beaches and at Bar-B-Ques all summer long. Oh, and to the guy who invented the thong bikini... you sir, are a true champion!!! Enjoy
