Hi rookie, what's up. A new slacker and you have already discovered the art of putting off. It is now time to take the next step. Don't put off till tomorrow what you can forget about!

Darth Tater, I was born to procrastinate. It's practically an art form to me.

I couldn't get on here for three hours! I actually did work. But no more of that for me.

Just minutes away from leading a small army to their first ever TPM viewing. They're females, so I've been saturating their emails with a constant barrage of Ewan pictures. (they already know I'm a slacker) On girl said, "Oooo, I love that little dimple on his chin!"

They're excited. I just want to see sabers and pods racing. The hell with what they think, this is about me.

Kidding. I don't care if they don't like it because I LOVE IT!!

And welcome to all new slackers!! We have grown powerful. Maybe next week, I do some new promotions.

Hey gundark, thanks for missing me. As for the Zagnut question, I haven't had one in quite some time because I can't anyplace around here that has them. There was one gas station around my house that had them, but they stopped carrying them. So, I'm on a quest to fing somewhere in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area that has the incredibly tasty goodness that is the Zagnut bar.

IMO, the Slackers need a mascot. I was thinking of something along the lines of a barnacle. Maybe Benny the Barnacle. After all, barnacles don't really do much. As far as I know, they attach to stuff and die, and their exoskeletons combine to form a rocklike shape. Boy, I better stop. That's depressing.

You know what? I really admire you guys for turning a shameful, despicable practice (slacking) into something you can be proud of and brag about. That takes a lot of talent. Give yourself a pat on the back.

P.S. Why does everyone here seem to be an alcoholic?

Almost time to leave w*** for the weekend. I had a pretty good day for a slacker. It was one of my co-workers birthday's so we all went out to lunch at this real fancy place that I could never afford and had lunch on the company's bill. Pretty cool. To all the week day slackers, have a good weekend and slack on.

Well, I'm here slacking away. If anybody wants to have some fun, YODA is DJing a party in the lounge. I'll be there partying away as usual. Chow!!

Geepers!!! Im gone for less than a day and thei thread blows up to 5 pages. But that's to be expected of slackers. Way to go!! You make me proud.

Sadly Im still on page 2!!!

Im still packing for my move down to DC/Maryland desert. If what the news reporters are telling me are true. I'll get in touch with everyone as soon as I can. Hopefully sunday.

I really miss you guys. I'll be thinking of you on my 10 hour drive down tomorrow. 10 hours just shoot me please.

Anyone else notice that the forum draws a really different crowd on weekends?

As for drinking -- since we're talking about it -- I do it... but certainly not religiously. It can be fun and relaxing to go out drinking with friends.

As usual I had to work today, but I am looking forward to my vacation upcoming. Just keeping this at the top so it can be found...

Today I was trying to play a video on the monitor and nothing would work. Just got a screen full of snow. So I tried the set of Star Wars movies I took in several weeks ago to help promote the merchandise we have for sale. It worked. Thinking I had somehow fixed the VCR, I tried one of the other movies I had been trying to get to play. Nothing. Clearly I was meant to be playing the Star Wars Trilogy. I think my boss thought I was just making excuses. ( "No, really! It's the only thing the VCR wants to play!" ) Better than the other stuff I have available to play anyway. It does a pretty good job of distracting me from my work, though, so it makes for a nicely slackin day for me!

Just wanted to bring this back up. I really don't know what it's doing on page 3!! Would you believe it?!

Anyway, I've finally arrived in Maryland/DC. The drive was hell, but at least Im here. Anybody live near college park? We can go see TPM together.

Im only on page 2 so my comments will be a while away. In the mean time, Hello everyone!! I missed you all. Will post more later.

Slack on my brothers and sisters.

TarynS, what are you doing all the way in the Maryland/DC area? I was going to go there this summer to visit my friends at Georgetown...we could've gone to see TPM.

Up you go.

Morning Salckers hope all is well

Looking forward to another week of doing nothing...

Creepio, I must know - how did the virgin viewing of TPM go? Did they like it? Did you manage to keep them of any alcohol beforehand?

Hello to all new Slackers, are there any more of you from Europe?

TarynS good to see you're posting again, the mornings here are lonely without you! especially as Sabé is on Holiday!

gundark, I still think the best Homer line is from the episode where he doesn't go to church and just slacks all morning...."Is this the best day of my life? hmmmm... We have a new champion!"
