	I had a bud in middle school who was so confused because he thought that General Madine said "we have stolen a small Imperial Shovel", owing to the fact I suppose the he was holding that command riding crop thing. I laughed my ass off for like...well I guess till now. -----signature----- NEW ORDER YO!

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Well, I first found Star Wars in second grade because my teacher had a kids' picture book that I read... I thought some miscellaneous officer on the Death Star shot the Emperor and that he looked more like Tarkin or something. (Actually, I'm lucky that's not all I've gotten wrong. My parents rented the OT in the opposite order.) jazz -----signature----- currently working on NaNo 2007 (won) 11/24: 50,000+!

	My favorite misconception: I don't think I noticed Oola's exposed breast until I was in my late 20s. I wish I had noticed it when I was 11. -----signature----- Slan go foill, Darth McMaul P.S.--Real Jedi wear KILTS! www.InnerMissionEntertainment.com

I mean, nobody knows what a "Nerf Herder" is anyway. Actually, I do. It's on wookiepedia. "Nerf-Herder" became a popular insult on Alderaan because of wierd creatures named Nerfs that live there, so it became a poular insult to herd them.

	In ROTJ, after Jabba says "bring her to me" after he captures Han and Leia, and he to lick Leia, I used to think his tounge was acidic and it was like... melting the Boussh armor off of her, so that's why in the next scene you see her almost naked (it was her underwear.) -----signature----- Execute Order 66

	I watched ANH yesterday, and remembered an old misconception. In the Trash Compactor, for the longest time I thought Luke said "Blast it will ya? My . . . god#@%*ed!" As a kid, I thought that was bed that they let that into a movie rated PG. At some point as a teenager, I guess my ears cleared up and I realized it was "gun's jammed." -----signature----- Slan go foill, Darth McMaul P.S.--Real Jedi wear KILTS! www.InnerMissionEntertainment.com

	One occured to me today after watching ROTJ again. I used to think TIE Fighters were PIE Fighters (mainly because of the way Lando pronounced it when he was saying about trying to get some to follow the guys that split up and went to the surface of the DS II. -----signature----- Holonet News 14: OC Disaster http://boards.theforce.net/before_the_saga/b10475/22965767/p1/?2 Last Updated: 25/1/06

	I use to think that Stormtroopers would die simply by getting knocked over or bumped into etc. Watching ewoks kill them with sticks didn't help. -----signature----- I love climbing, because it feels so good when I stop....

	I remember on the backs of my stormtrooper figures, there was a design in the middle of a square that looked like this OII . When I was a kid, I thought stormtroopers were robots and OII said OIL . Yep, I thought that's where you put the motor oil into the stormtrooper robots.

	I don't know how many misconceptions I had so much as I had no clue what some lines were. I didn't learn of some of them until as recently as last year when I read scripts. As was mentioned above, I had no clue what Luke said after 'blast it will ya...'. I knew he said 'anywhere'. But that was about it. I never understood what 3PO said in the desert. I later understood he was saying you 'near-sighted scrap pile'.

	I just remembered an old one, from the summer ANH came out. My friends and I all thought her name was Princess Aliea. And Dark Vader, but our parents corrected us quickly on both. -----signature----- Slan go foill, Darth McMaul P.S.--Real Jedi wear KILTS! www.InnerMissionEntertainment.com
