So far, Hind's Feet On High Places looks and feels like the love-child of Pilgrim's Progress and Elsie Dinsmore. Ack! But, because of the widely disparate people that have recommended it to me, onward will I plow. Prow. Kazow.

We need a site that can help you find things on the 'net when you have no idea what they are called or who made them.

However, there are things you can find that you never knew you wanted to see. I didn't know that they did this sort of thing.

Anyway, I am looking for two things - a movie that had a bunch of teenagers in space, I don't remember why exactly, and the oldest one had to fight this horrible fight with a nasty rock-star type bad guy on the edge of this incredibly scary pit, all industrial and backlit, with crowds around. Spiky hair, lots of it, on most of the characters, and clothes that were a mix of James Dean and that other chick the Matrix that wasn't Trinity. The one that wore white. That's all I remember of it. You can see why I can't just go to IMDB about this one.

The other thing is a playset I used to have. There were these cool little green plastic people, little more than 2-inch long, 1/2 inch wide cylinders with heads (and the women flared out just before the base to represent skirts, that's how you knew they were women). And these cool orange plastic chassis parts, in which you could install these cool yellow plastic axles on which you may affix these cool red plastic wheels. Both the chassis..es... and the wheels had sockets in them of the right size to put in either the end of one of the axles (say you wanted to make the orange piece into a boat instead of a car, you would put the axle standing straight up from the middle as a mast) or one of the people (like they were sitting in a seat.) Or you could make scary-cool trees out of combinations of the people and axles for trunks and branches with the wheels for foliage. This was the coolest playset except my wooden blocks that I had, and MY MOM GAVE IT AWAY. And now I cannot find it, no, I cannot, always looking, never finding...
