Well, mine were a little too big to be called toys.  Actually, judging
from the way I felt when others would try to change things, I felt rather
like it was "my baby."  Until those merciless beaurocrats came along and
ordered the heartless riggers to dismantle it - to make room for a 
new radioactive beam line.  Now it is nothing but lifeless scrap metal.

All I have left right now are a box of 8mm data tapes, a MicroVax,
and a digitizing tablet.  Oh, and an 8mm tape drive, of course.
