You will be missed Creepio but we will bouble our efforts, or lack there of, and the slack will go on. Now that I have the power to become Slackasaurus Rex, nothing can stop me."I'm talking about sharkin' for a livin'."-a quote from Quint from Jaws for absolutely no reason. Slack on. IP: Logged |

Yeah, the server sucks today. They moved my thread to classics where nobody will see it!! Oh, well, maybe I can change a few lines and re-post it in SA.

Do you guys think Jedi Soul would mind if I posted it? You can get it off of her profile...gundark--try putting "_" between each word in the name...it's a bit confusing with the underlining...maybe that's the problem? Then again, she did say she was having issues with her computer, so the prob could be on her end. On another note--this isn't as cool as the screenplay, but I did finish my Queen Amidala costume this weekend. IP: Logged |

Morning all. Another week of slacking begins today. I need to acutally work today! But it's on my resume, does that still count as real work? Either way, I'l make it quick, plus I love the excitement of working on my resume at work. Using company resource wisely. Hehehe...IP: Logged |

After the horrific week and weekend I've had, I'm ready to get back to doing some serious slacking. I've decided not even the dark side (of which one of the branch managers, who's name I won't mention, it's not like it's Kelcy or anything, who is a SW hater) will bring me down. As for slacking, I'm back in full throttle mode. I was given a list her in which I was going to add to my binder of important stuff, but I didn't want to walk over to the hole punch, so it just sits here on my desk. The greatness that is the Slack...BTW, Hacienda, what's your favorite Lush song? I'd have to go with Breeze or Superblast... IP: Logged |

How about Weird-Al-esque SW songs?Here's mine: Sweet Child O' Mine sung by Shmi Skywalker V1: Well, I'm a slave woman on Tatooine Sandiest planet I've ever seen Where the sun is hot and the air is heavy and dry I have a young son who's nine years old Midichlorians made him, or so I'm told I gave birth, I raised him, and I can't explain why CHORUS: Whooooooooaaaah, sweet child of mine Whooooooooaaahh, sweet child of mine V2: One day at my door this tall man appeared Berobed and handsome and sporting a beard Storms were afoot and he needed a place to hide He began bonding with my boy Arranged for his freedom from the big blue Toy Took him away, my boy said he'd return but he lied CHORUS Now I'm all alone and the suns have set My son sure scored good with Qui-Gon's bet But as for me, I'm left here with these Hutts My son is supposed to be trained in the Force For sending him off, I have no remorse As long as he will come back and free my butt CHORUS [I'm trying not to rip off The Saga Begins too much.]

AS-- I have to confess that I have trouble remembering a lot of Lush song titles. I know the song, I can tell you exactly where on the album it is, but half the time I don't know the title.My faves? "Sweetness and Light," (great live) the first track and the whole second side of Spooky, The 500, Single Girl, Ladykillers, For You...I like their poppy stuff the most. Sucks that they broke up, sucks even more that their drummer hung himself. My favorite bands usually have suicides IP: Logged |

I am glad to see the slacking has picked up. Jedi Soul coule you forward the screen play to me? My e-mail is: scheffer@sgi.com. Yes, now everyone knows my e-mail, oh well, I can't be fired since my company selling of my division, so I will continue to slack, unabated...IP: Logged |

Work is so boring today that I've been emailing this girl upstairs constantly trying to convince her that she's my twin sister and the President of our company's top competition is our father. She understands the joke and plays along well. She even quoted Han Solo a few times.Yes, the slack is strong on Mondays. You guys might be interested in my Princess Leia is a Sith theory on the classics thread, if you're as bored as I am.

Hey everyone.Sorry if I've been kind of lazy posting recently. Rest assured, I'm reading it all. Anyway, I enjoyed the first shot of the screenplay, Jedi Soul. The clone angle caught me completely unexpected. Good job! Today I'm heavy with sleep. We had a breakfast meeting this morning, and I made the mistake of ordering the "beef hash". I had no idea what it was -- turned out to be a huge slab of ... beef hash. Sleep has taken control of my stomach and is quickly conquering my will to stay awake. BTW, I enjoyed reading about you all in Creepio's Inner Being thread. Nice to see who I'm hanging with. I'll post mine there soon. IP: Logged |

Jedi Soul, My sincerest apologies. I was out most of yesterday and went to bed early, I have 4 emails to respond to today. Yes, I feel much better, i hung out w/ couple of friends yesterday and they helped out in sorting my thoughts, I give you all the details later. Hacienda, yeah that sucks that Chris hung himself and Lush broke up. I did get to see them live a couple of times though, even met Micki and Emma. Emma was pretty nice but Micki was a complete (insert swear word here). Have you ever heard Slowdive? I really like them a lot also. IP: Logged |

Haven't heard Slowdive...I guess if I like Lush, I'd like them?I've heard that Miki was a b!tch, but then again, I've heard she's ALWAYS drunk so it was probably the booze talking. Not an excuse, though. At least Emma was cool. BTW, have you heard Emma's new band, Sing Sing? I've heard of it but haven't heard any of their music... IP: Logged |

Amidala's Suitor... OH MY GOD!!! Slowdive is my brother's favorite group of all time! He has like everything they've ever recorded... Do you have an album called "Pygmalion"(sp?) It's fantastic... I love it too! God... we've got a lot in common, but I never knew you liked Slowdive! Rock on! (I'm SOOOOOOOO glad you feel better... that makes ME feel better !)IP: Logged |

Jedi Soul, I think your brother and I need to hang out sometime. This is so creepy. The three of us can hang turn down the lights, put Slowdive, Spiritualized, and some other mellow, trippy music in the CD player and just talk. For some reason, this music is always the backdrop for some great conversations, seriously. Yes, I have Pygmalion, but my favorite is Souvlaki. Which Hacienda, I was just about to recommend to you. It's some beautiful stuff. IP: Logged |

Hey Fellow Slackers.How's this for a slack... I went into work this morning and I had to run around all morning picking up and dropping of stuff for the boss. After I finish running around I ask the boss if I can leave because I am not feeling to well. He said sure. Do you know why I left? Because our ISP is down. (Well, I am also kinda have a fever...) So what's the first thing I do when I get home? Catch up with the slack I'll be here for the rest of the afternoon. YIIIPPEEEE!!! "RedHot5 standing by" IP: Logged |
