Hi. My name is Chris. I live in Lebanon, Ky. but I was living near Brooks until recently. I have been to a few meetings on Tuesdays, but can't yet make anything on the weekends because of work. Been a Star Wars fan since I was a kid. I have met a few of you and hope to meet many more soon. Thanks for having me.



Welcome aboard "Ner Vodika"! (Affectionate term in Mandolorian for "My Brother")
Good to have you here, now to work on Appos "Shebs". (Mando for "back side") >;~D

Well, if Jedimika asks me to introduce myself, I guess I better.

Hello, my name is Yoda Jammies, but I go by Jammies. I’ve been a fan force member for several years—mainly with the E’ville Jedi (Evansville Indiana). I have moved around a lot, both for school and for work, but none of the other fan forces have been as warm to me as the E’ville Jedi. So, even though I moved here 7 months ago, it kinda took me this long to post here. I hope to be an active, and positive contribution to the L.G.A (Darth Real Life not withstanding).

About me? Well, I work with people with disabilities at a local university—it is a very rewarding, but stressful, job. I moved here from Knoxville, where I did the same for the University of Tennessee, and before that I worked and went to school in Ohio.

March 12th, 1979 was the date the first Star Wars comic strips went into syndication (the Russ Manning ones), and it was also the date of my birth. So, you could say I was born with Star Wars. I saw ESB in the theaters, and have never stopped being a fan (I even learned to read from the Marvel comic adaptation).

Everyone has a fandom niche, and mine would be model building. I have been in love with ILM since I saw the making of Empire Strike Back documentary on CBS when I was 4—and have been building models ever since. I have shown my stuff at Wonderfest for the past 5 years (all Star Wars). I also make a little side cash building kits for other folks. I build models, but I also like to play with them. Thus, I enjoy table top wargaming (the old WEG rules, or starship gaming using the Full Thrust rules).

I also love the EU (like I said, I was born with the EU). I have read every sourcebook, comic, novel, happy meal box, I could ever get my hand on. Except for the young adult novels and the newer ones on my bookshelf, I have read them all (well, okay, I could not finish “Ruins of Dantooine” it was just too poorly written, even for me).

An equal opportunity fanboy: I dig me some Joss Weedon, I enjoy BSG, I tolerate Trek, and am currently watching Babylon 5. But, the Galaxy Far Far Away has always been the center that my geekdom obits.

That’s me, thanks Mika for asking me to post. Y’all feel free to ask me any questions you might have, or just say hi.

MTFBWY

I thought I was a SW fan until I read that and had no idea what it meant.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing.

Yes, I could also be classified as a Browncoat. My fandoms are all over the place. B5 rules BTW.

I've never been to Wonderfest. I actually didn't start getting into cons until a few years ago. If you come by Fanboys Friday maybe we can chat about it.

Welcome to the area!

Hello everyone. I am not new to theforce.net but I came across the Louisville section of it today. The last time I was on theforce.net was at least 5 years ago back when I was in high school and didnt have anything better to do while I sat in the library. Now Im 22 and I have nothing better to do while Im sitting at work. Ironic. Anyway, A little about me. My name is Benjamin but people call me Ben. I live across the river in New Albany and I have been a Star Wars fan since I was around 10. I also play video games all the time, Mostly PC and 360 games. My xbox live name is HoosierDaddy256. Hit me up if you wanna play something. Other then that I really cant think of anything else about myself. Im always open to questions so if you wanna know something dont hessitate to ask. Now as far as membership into your all's club goes, is there anything else I need to do?

Hey Kyp and welcome! You'll find we're a pretty laid back bunch, no initiations or anything like that. You've done all you need to do by introducing yourself. Hope you can make it out to see "Fanboys"! If not come on out to one of our other get togethers!

That is some nice work. I'm really impressed with the terrain from the bird's eye view.
