Just a question, was it anyone on these boards that was dressed up as Jedi in today's 4th of July (Provo) Parade?
Did anyone else see that?

I was the Boba Fett in the Freedom Festival Parade yesterday. You looking for someone in particular? You can find 128 photos from the parade at the Alpine Garrison Gallery.

Actually I just wanted to congraduate you guys on some awesome costumes!
And I was surprized that fans were dressed up in the parade and were not A) Part of these message boards ^^ and B) didn't announce that they were going to be in the parade.
Thanks for the link to the pics though, Now I can show my roomie Kateydidnt who was out of town.

LOL, I spotted Mike delurking. Your little girl is so dang cute in that Imperial Officer's uniform. Kudos to Amy for whipping up that little git-up for her. Alas, I was at the Riverdale parade in my Stormtrooper with the others. I hear that your parade went a few extra unanticipated miles! We gotta get that float fixed up!

Delurking? No, more like re-activating my TFN account. Been too busy on other forums. wink

There are a lot of Star Wars fans in Utah County that aren't here on the Fanforce boards. I'm sure that with Ish's leadership, that will change. cool

I was surprised, when I introduced myself at ROTS during the costume contest that, apart from LeiaTygre, there were 6 uncharted readers of mine who went "Oh my gosh! You're Ish and I loved __________________!"

Well... That all depends on how you define "ALIVE". tongue

As for the PM, don't forget that it was in response to one that you sent me. wink

Yes, but she claimed you never responded to her pms, hence the "HE'S ALIVE?!"

Dana sent me ONE PM on October 20, 2004, and no, I did not respond to that one PM. That was the time I went AWOL from TFN. shock

Sorry, Dana.

Ah, okay. Now I understand. Well, we've missed you, anyway. Where are you these days and are you and your lovely family ever coming to an activity?

*Where* am I? Still here in Orem.

Am I coming to an activity? Possibly. Things are quite busy at work for me in July. Right now I'm working about 12-14 hours a day, but things will get better later this month.

I stepped down as CR and left the Fanforce boards last October because I was extremely frustrated. I had planned three activities in a row where not one soul showed up. It was because of this lack of interest that I decided that I needed a break.

I will support whatever activities I can. I don't want to contribute to the same spirit of apathy that led to the decline of the Provo Fanforce.

I'm quite confident you can turn things around DarthIshtar as the new CR. happy

Later,

Awesome, thanks for the vote of confidence. It's sometimes funny to only qualify for active fanforce because me, dana, and Mia all come to the activities or that sort of thing. I'm trying to get our antisocial collegiates to come out for the activities. EowynJade I've met several times, but Laura_anu tends to stay in study mode all year round.

Well, I couldn't come to them, as I was in Florida, otherwise I would have been there, Mike.

I sent a couple more PMs to you, and to Tiffany, but I think the board system lost them, 'cause I can't find 'em in my outbox. That's happened to me quite a bit, which is disturbing.
