I thought that we might as well have a board where we could post random things that popped into our heads and thought that maybe someone else might care.

I was shopping at Target today and discovered that they had accidentaly put out the new line of Lego sets that aren't supposed to be released until next year (basically in the next 2 weeks happy ). Someone who worked there said that the sets were going to be removed until the time when they were supposed to be there. Just thought I would put it out there if anyone was interested.

If you're going to go shopping all day (two days in a row), don't wear high-heeled boots! Your toes might be sore later.

If you're going to go shopping and decide to leave your coat in the car, make sure you get your keys out of your pocket before you lock the doors!!!!!

Marty...I bought my first SW Lego the other day. I picked up Vader with the Emperor. If I start small, the rest will come easy!

Is it me or do we need to get a convention in the area that we could go to? There are always events in the south and west coast, but very little in our direction. That would be cool to have one in Buffalo that we could help out at.

Conventions you say?

Here is just a sample of some of the SF conventions in the area.

Ad-Astra
March 21-23, Toronto

EerieCon
April 11-13, Niagara Falls, NY
(The Fan GoHs are old friends of mine! Bonus!!)

Oh heck there are bunches, not the least of which include Toronto Trek (the largest fan-run media convention around), and the BIG one, The World Science Fiction Convention being held this year in Toronto!

Look at this list of conventions yourself.

I thought he was referring to Star Wars conventions. ??

So if there aren't that many Star Wars conventions in the Buffalo area, does anybody have any ideas on how to attract Lucasfilms attention and try to get one in the area?

...Wait. This topic is starting to take a definitive form...need a random thought...

um...does anyone know what those little knobby things on the side of a female Twi'Leks head are? Are they ears or something? I need to know for a fanfiction I'm writing about Aayla Secura.

Ugh. Horrible joke there Bobachris. Although I would have gone with saying zits instead of chicken pox.

Hmmm...maybe that's why Anakin winds up wearing the Darth Vader costume...he gets a case of chicken pox and doesn't want to give it to Leia and Luke, so he dons the life support suit...and just finds it too comfortable to take off.

...Or maybe the zipper gets stuck. happy

Is it just me, or is the thought of a fully armored Darth Vader bouncing Luke on his knee hilarious? grin

Parallax,
If im not mistaken, the "bumps" on the female Twi'leks are outer protection for the ears. Hope that helps.
