Stellar Junior Member | posted 07-29-1999 04:53 PM Just checking in because I am slackin on my day off. Home is the only place I have net access, and I am sure not going to do any housework!I just counted my TPM ticket stubs. I have 13. Do I need help? IP: Logged |
Vrian Sinth Member | posted 07-29-1999 04:56 PM Come on guys!! Toga Party in the lounge!! It's a blast!! Woooo hooooo!!! Let's pack the room! Spoiler: Darth Maul's ship looks a lot like a Tie Fighter!! IP: Logged |
Dark Lord of the Garlic Member | posted 07-29-1999 05:06 PM Wow, I just got out of a meeting and, for the first time, was able to block out everything anyone was saying. I found a good technique is to think about lightsaber battles. Who can think about work when you are imagining pictures of Darth Maul's grimace in the middle of the TPM duel. Another good technique I've found is to focus on the amusing moments in our beloved universe. Luke's classic acting when he said "That's imPOSSible!" and then followed with some unrecognizable, gutteral noises before looking like he was about to cry like an 8 year old. Yes, I am growing stronger in the slack. The slack is my ally, and a strong ally it is.Spoiler: Boss Nass' drool is really crisco IP: Logged |
Obi Two Member | posted 07-29-1999 05:06 PM Sandfarmer, that really sucks! Stay away from the windows, I think that's the safest bet. Here in the Silicon Valley, we don't have many shootings, those usually occur over in Oakland. When does the toga party start?Spoiler: Ric Olie has cool hair! IP: Logged |
Sandfarmer Member | posted 07-29-1999 05:08 PM Thanks TarynS. This is weird, the shooting is on the corner of Peidmont and Roswell Rd. I work on Peidmont and I live on Roswell Rd. So far two to four are confirmed dead and seven others hospitalized. This has made my slacking very un-fun. I'd better call my mom before she sees it on the news and freaks out.IP: Logged |

There's hardly any action around where I work, but on Monday there was a fire on the street, yesterday an elderly man past out, and there was another fire today. What a week!

Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi Member | posted 07-30-1999 12:06 AM I'm sorry. I am not fulfilling my slacker quota I don't have access to my own computer. Man...I can't wait until September to go back to college and read posts on the Internet for hours at a time instead of doing my homework. Slack without me Obi-Wan doesn't take his clothes off in TPM IP: Logged |

Red One Member | posted 07-30-1999 03:01 AM Gee, I almost feel like I should introduce myself to post to this thread. JK TarynS, I am not a euro but I am suppose to be working my rear off right now getting a project out tomorrow ( whenever friday is). I just could not help but check this thread out. Does that mean I am slacking? The spoiler: um,...ET and his buddies drop by the senate chambers... IP: Logged |
THX 1204 Member | posted 07-30-1999 05:42 AM TarynS thanks for keeping Prokins up there, found him no trouble this morning -let's face when your as big as Porkins there shouldn't be a problem.Nice to see you guys picked up the slacking in the afternoon. I must get my home PC up and running! I haven't got any Star Wars clothing either - my Girlfriend would definitely leave me if I wore TPM underwear. Still haven't brought my TPM toys, I'm waiting until I'm in California next month - they're cheaper on your side of the ocean Any one up yet, or slacking in Europe? IP: Logged |
Red One Member | posted 07-30-1999 05:48 AM I am still here. Starting to slow down though. Even thinking about Star Wars, TPM, etc...C3PO does all the skin scenes in TPM... IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 07-30-1999 06:45 AM uuuuummmm... Im up!! Im up!! Im up!! And Jedi Soul That picture did wonders for my dreams! Thanks again. You're soooo soo soooooo good to us. Hey THX, and new Slacker Red One Welcome to our new facilities. The Empire has loomed like a shadow over everything we've built here. But circumstance have delveloped to ensure security. You we've made these spoilers/theories that will keep the Empire away from here forever. Im ready to slack for the day from home! theory: Empire = Admins?? Who has proof? IP: Logged |
Red One Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:00 AM I am so much not getting anything done. I am having fun slacking though. I think this is something I could do. Nothing but Star Wars.That picture of Nat is just something else. I have to send out a big wonderful thank you to Jedi Soul. TarynS, With the Bueacracy disolved, how will admin (?emporer?) maintain control. Regional administrators (govennors) will have direct control of their threads (teritory's). Fear,...of being banned will keep the local members (systems) in line. Etc... I hope I do not get in trouble for writing this, I think i will stop and go back to slacking... Spoiler,...um...Nat has eight outfits for the TPM...

Darth Tater Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:14 AM Morning all! Our problems with admins in the past just shows why our grreat leader C Creepio should be one: to keep this thread open. May the Slack be with you. Sincerely, Your EmperorIP: Logged |
dapper_bloke Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:18 AM 12:20pmgood day fellow slackers... I've been in the office for 3 hours already, slacking with style, but due to our network being down, I haven't been able to ge in here until now... I must say, the quality of one's slack really goes downhill without the internet to surf on... anyway I'm here now - but not for long... it is Friday after all and that can only mean one thing... 4 HOUR LUNCH BREAK AT THE PUB...!!!!! I love my job... Spoiler: Darth Maul doesn't say all that much... (but I do like the strong silent type) IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:19 AM I would hope they get the joke, but it might have been done before so now it's just lame. Who knows. But I'll take your advice Red One and back off some. Nice Admin, Pretty Admin, Handsome Admin, Smart Admin.... Now... c'mon they have to laugh that one, because it is all true. Slacking in the morning is always slow with slacking. Hey is Sabé here yet? IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:28 AM Mornin' dapper, glad to see you've made it. A sever shut down can be hard to live with.Who else is in for the morning slack? IP: Logged |
QASM Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:40 AM Hey all.<Q steps onto the soapbox> It's a sad morning in Atlanta. Sandfarmer kinda talked about it yesterday, but this dude went off yesterday afternoon and blew away 12 people including his wife and young kids, then wounded 12 more, and then offed himself. It's just a shame that people who are upset with life feel that they must take down innocents with them. Something similar just happened here last week too, where a guy killed 7 people (including another child) and then himself. It really bothers me to see the state of this country where some people turn to violence as answers. I still believe that people are generally good at heart, I HAVE to believe that, but it really tears me up to see tradgedies like this happening. Maybe I should move back to NYC where it's safe <Q's attempt at a bad joke> Sandfarmer, check in with us to let us know you're ok. <Q steps off the soapbox> I hope everyone else is having a great morning, and that our British contingent is having a great day! Love to you all! Q IP: Logged |
Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:50 AM I'll be right back. Have to go do something very unslack like. Make breakfast for the fam.. The horror of it all... Be back as soon as I can. Slack on Brothers and Sisters!! IP: Logged |
Darth Tater Member | posted 07-30-1999 07:51 AM My last attempt to do something fancy failed misserably, but I'm gonna try again. Spoiler: Darth Maul looks like this: IP: Logged |
