So I walked to the video place to return Kill Bill and Matrix (thank god for ffwd) (no cicadas) when I passed the 18 construction sites between my house and 1 mile away. One was really neat - a guy about my size (underpants gnome) was controlling a tonka toy with a remote control. Well, the tonka toy was about 4' tall, but when I had them they seemed that big to me. I couldn't fathom what this thing was doing, it seemed to be like a mini-steamroller and was being driven back and forth across a small patch in the asphalt. It was just so small that I couldn't imagine that it was very steam-rollerish. They moved it later with a back-hoe...aw!? Ka-yoot! I want one!

I should ask you if any of these are well-made, because I've thought of upscaling but from the outside these places look like plywood and styrofoam.
