<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nI presented a workshop called “Lessons from Legos for you…and your grandchildren,” based on my building the Cathedral of Notre Dame<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n I wanted to open the workshop with the participants starting the project so they could get a feel for the process. I had copied the instructions for the first 11 steps (of 393 steps!). Now all I needed were the Legos for those steps. No problem…there’s a Lego store in Denver. I’ll just buzz up there and pick them up from the bins. On April 11, two weeks before my presentation on April 29, I discovered that the store did not have a single piece that I needed. “No problem, sir. You can order them from Lego.com.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n So as soon as I got home, I went to Lego.com and ordered the “bricks” that I needed. They don’t offer expedited shipping. About half of my order was from the “best seller” list and “Your order will arrive in 5 days.” The rest come from DENMARK(!) and “…will arrive in 28 days.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n 28 days!? I have only 15 days before I leave for the conference. So I wrote to customer service and said I really, really needed those bricks by April 26. They responded right away but said there was nothing they could do. I asked them to please tell the folks in Denmark to at least put me at the top of the queue and ship them quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All I could do at that point was pray. The Lego people couldn’t help me; maybe God could! <\/p>\n\n\n\n The first batch arrived in 5 days as advertised. We were packing the car to leave for the conference on Saturday, April 26, when I went to the mailbox, and THERE IT WAS! An envelope with a customs declaration on it…my Lego bricks. I regret that I forgot to take a picture of the folks assembling the Legos, but they had fun and came up with the observations in the top right picture above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You do not have because you do not ask.
