Amidala's Suitor Member | posted 07-29-1999 09:04 AM ![Edit/Delete Message](http://theforce.net/forum/edit.gif) Good morning everyone, I'm here at the office and ready to put in another 8 hours of slacking! Gundark, as to your question, I own a pair of Darth Maul boxers and two Princess Leia t-shirts. Also, I'd like to extend a welcome to all new slackers, and end w/ a question. Not to sound like an idiot or anything, but how do you add the little smiley faces to your posts? Jar Jar almost gets into a fight with a dug, an especially dangerous dug called Sebulba. IP: Logged |

C Creepio Member | posted 07-29-1999 09:41 AM ![Edit/Delete Message](http://theforce.net/forum/edit.gif) This lady who is anti Star Wars just saw my Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, Amidala in-action wallpaper and asked where I got it. I said with confidence "The Internet." Then I pointed at Kenobi and said, "I have the biggest man crush on him."She turned white, her eyes buldged out. "I've never heard that term before." And she walked away. Be gone with him!

I had been using :-) and it looks pretty messy. I had to use edit on Creepio's post to figure it out. It was his suggestion. He more then deserves the title Master. He is the truest there ever was. ![](http://theforce.net/forum/smile.gif) DLotG , Ford you say? by gollie I think you're right! Funny stuff you got there. It must be Fords.

Antares_six Member | posted 07-29-1999 10:55 AM ![Edit/Delete Message](http://theforce.net/forum/edit.gif) Hey! Still trying to catch up on all the posts I've missed, but wanted to get this one in. So yesterday was my astronomy final (which would have been much easier if we had learned something in the class), so today, since it was experimental class I had to be interviewed by the administrators on video. All went more or less okay, until..."I've noticed that during the lectures you tended to check your e-mail" E-mail, ha! Hard to see the dark side is! But I had to launch into my defense of slack... Reason for slacking #1...the lectures were pointless, condescending, and had nothing to do with the material we were required to know. Slacking relates far better to my life. Reason for slacking #2...nothing that happened in the classroom had anything to do with the material we were required to know, I was guaranteed a "B" and $75 for participating in the study no matter what I did....so....long live the slack! Moral...Q...electric lemonade this evening? Sandfarmer how far are you from us anyway? Spoiler...Luke and Leia are twins (haven't finished reading the last few pages so I apologize if that's been taken!)

Jedi Soul Member | posted 07-29-1999 11:09 AM ![Edit/Delete Message](http://theforce.net/forum/edit.gif) Hi everybody!!! ![](http://theforce.net/forum/smile.gif) I had like, NO sleep last night... we had all of these severe storms. I was watching like Letterman or something and this special report came on saying that there was a tornado heading directly for my city. Wonderful... Here I am, half asleep, and a tornado's coming towards my house. So after a few mumbled swear words, I grabed all my valuable Star Wars memorabilia and went downstairs. Then I remembered the 'rents. I still live at home. I had actually remembered Star Wars more than my own parents. Wow, that's not good, I thought. So I made sure all the Star Wars stuff was all secure, and I went upstairs to wake my parents as lawn furniture was slamming into my house. You, know... what is it with me and tornadoes??? I've been in like 5 in this year alone... You think someone's trying to tell me something??? ?Well, Q, Amidala's Suitor, Jedi Knight TarynS, and C Creepio... I'm glad you liked the Ewan postcards ! If anyone else would like one, just tell me. They are at ewanspotting.com. Spoiler... C Creepio's real name is...real...name...is...(choking sounds... )... IP: Logged |

The weather has been getting kind of extreme lately. I say it's global warming but the reporters are carefully avoiding that word for 3 years now. Unstead they call it El Nino, and La Nina. Now there's a conspiracy if I ever saw one. Oh and I loved your spoiler!! it was great!!!! creepio's real name. Ha.

Amidala's Suitor Member | posted 07-29-1999 11:58 AM ![Edit/Delete Message](http://theforce.net/forum/edit.gif) Jedi Soul, 5 tornadoes?? YIPE!!! Living in Texas, I've been through only 2 in my life, I couldn't imagine 5 in one year. To make things worse, I don't have a basement, so how would I save my SW stuff? Anyhoo, I hope you, your family and your SW stuff are all ok. I'm so tired this morning I'm slacking at slacking. I don't know what's wrong with me. Anyway, all Slackers are invited to the first weekly Slacker Navy pool party. I've got a keg of Shiner Bock beer at the Slacker pool right now, so does anybody want to sign up to bring a food of some sort? I've posted a sign up sheet on my office door next to my Ewan Worship poster. BTW, Creepio, glad to see you use the term Man Crush @ work. You rock. Yoda has more hair in EP1. IP: Logged |
