I'm so pleased that so many of you like the site - I've said it before and I will say it again: more pics...!!!! as for the title graphic, the one by Senator Binks2 is really cool, but I've also received one by e-mail from ded which is bloody amazing...!!! I will hold off for a few days until everyone who wants to try to design one has had a chance, then we can vote for the best... based on two (fantastic) submissions so far, it's gonna look cool... will try to peek in here later tonight...

absolutjedi Member | posted 08-03-1999 01:26 PM So sorry I've been away for so long. I'm in Canada and we had a holiday yesterday, and this morning I had to do some work checking our computer system at work for viruses, otherwise no more forums (and the business would probably go belly up too, but who really cares about that ) daper_bloke, great job on the web page!!! I'll try to get a suitable picture scanned fo it soon! Good to hear from our fearless leader again, I was getting scared that the admins might have done something that they would live to regret (though I never lost hope in our master's power )Anyway, I've got a lot of slacking to catch up on!!! Slack on my brothers and sisters. Slack on. MTSBWY IP: Logged |
absolutjedi Member | posted 08-03-1999 01:30 PM Man, I make one post after all this time and it doubles on me. Go figure. MTSBWY[This message has been edited by absolutjedi (edited 08-03-1999).] IP: Logged |
Hacienda51 Member | posted 08-03-1999 01:32 PM Hey dapper_bloke...great site! When my Amidala costume is done, I'll put it on, go slack off, get a picture, and send it in. I may do a Amidala Slacking Off photo essay...I'm thinking of: Amidala sitting at the bar Amidala poolside Amidala napping at her desk Amidala eatin' Twinkies in front of the TV I'm looking for more good Amidala Slacking Off activities. Ideas? IP: Logged |

C Creepio Member | posted 08-03-1999 01:40 PM Story:Anyone see the headline to the Orlando Sentinnel? You can get it online. THe headline: Force Often Used in Florida Prisons Well, we have the paper on the table in our lounge and I wen tin and saw the headline. There were two women there- both anti-SW. So I picked up the headline and said, "Florida prisoners are Jedi? They use the Force?" Eyes roll, one lady packed up her stuff and left. The other stayed behind and said, "I hope you never have children." I said, "Yep. They're getting brainwashed form the day of conception."

The Sandfarmer Member | posted 08-03-1999 01:58 PM I'm with you C Creepio. My kids are going to be Jedi from the time they are concieved. I am married (only for one year) and we don't plan on having kids anytime soon but I am already buying SW stuff and Ep. 1 stuff and telling my wife that it will be for our kids so that she will let me buy the stuff. Pretty sneaky huh? I do plan on passing all my stuff down though. I know when I was a kid I would have loved to have had a built in collection waiting for me.IP: Logged |
Amidala's Suitor Member | posted 08-03-1999 02:01 PM Rock on Creepio, I get that kind of reaction a lot, too. Anyway, because I'm such a Slacker, I'm taking off early today!! Jedi Soul, I got your e-mail, and I will be responding tomorrow. My e-mail @ work is screwed up at the moment and I can't send outgoing mail, but tomorrow that should be fixed. Until tomorrow, MTSBWY!!! IP: Logged |
The Sandfarmer Member | posted 08-03-1999 02:04 PM Jedi Soul-it just occured to me that I want to read your screenplay but you may not have my correct email since I was forced to change names. My emial is: s.j.smith@mindspring.comIP: Logged |
Obi Two Member | posted 08-03-1999 02:05 PM Slack on everyone! Creepio, I like that story. I got a kick out of it. Now if those women only knew the power of the slack!!IP: Logged |
Senator Binks2 Member | posted 08-03-1999 02:26 PM One step ahead of you guys....I don't have any kids (probably a good thing, considering that I'm not even married -- or attached right now), but one of my co-workers is on her maternity leave, and came in to show everyone her new baby boy about a week ago. Fortunately for the young lad, I'd taken the time to download the Trailer to the office computer. I think he enjoyed it. He got a quiet smile on his face, and started crying after I handed him off. Unfortunately, so few people really KNOW how to bring children up. I don't think my boss has even taken his kids to see the film yet. A real pity.... IP: Logged |
absolutjedi Member | posted 08-03-1999 02:58 PM Well, you know what they say, "it takes a village" preferably a village on Tatooine or some other outer rim planet where the Empire can't track you down and kill you and your wife to get your bratty nephew, who you've worked an sweated for all your life only to get blasted by a bunch of b@st@rds in white suits... but I digress. Great story Creepio, I know your children will be strong in the force (and the slack).MTSBWY [This message has been edited by absolutjedi (edited 08-03-1999).] IP: Logged |

absolutjedi Member | posted 08-03-1999 03:55 PM Master Creepio,Just thought I would suggest that since everyone is so excited about daper_bloke's web page (tres cool btw), that it might be a good idea to add a link to said page on the very first post that started SWMCMMJ Ep 7. That way it will be easy for everyone to find it (I'm thinking of new people who join the slacker ranks in the future in particular). This would make it infinately easier to direct people to the page in the future (until this thread is locked/moved/threadnapped/forced outa town by the evil powers that constantly threaten us from the lofty heights, in their ivory towers corrupted by the.... but I digress. So, thought this would be a good idea for future reference. Just a thought. Your most attentive student, absolut IP: Logged |
C Creepio Member | posted 08-03-1999 03:58 PM Man, that picture of dapper_bloke slacking in the slacker's gallery on the SWMCMMJ website is WAY TOO FUNNY! I can't wait until more pictures are up. You guys will love mine!

absolutjedi Member | posted 08-03-1999 04:05 PM Master Creepio,The first version of this was knda funny, but the JC server's givin' me problems so just the basics. I think you should add a link to the webpage to the first post that started Ep 7 so that we can reference the page easily (esp. for future slackers). Your attentive student absolut IP: Logged |

Jedi Knight TarynS Member | posted 08-03-1999 08:28 PM Well, Im finally back!! Man it sux to be away from you guys. Im on withdral.... I just stopped the shacking now. I am now in my element... Posting here is such a high. I personally can't wait to see Creepios picture. It better not be like Al in "Home Improvement" His face is conveniently covered up or something. How frustrating is that? But really funny I'll have to admitt.
