SW Blog
In the 5400.. thread Steve the Garbageman suggested a new thread to get more posting started much as in the same spirit as the 5400 thread or the counting up thread or the countless others that we use for our secret mission to eliminate the Milwookies.
Musictrooper..aka Ed came through with an idea to create a post to have people talk about some connection they had that day with the SW universe. He went on to say that this could even be just logging on and thinking of others on this board.
Well as one who would love to crush the Milwookies from the evil planet of Wisconsin I appreciated the idea and am getting it started with a SW blog.

RE: SW Blog
Yesterday I spent some time with my son working on my new SW themed room. As some of you have been to my house have seen the room I am designating to my current and ever expanding of SW gear. Currently 75% of my stuff is in totes and not given there true love.
A good deal of time was spent cleaning stuff, dusting, removing batteries in toys that were boxed and no longer working. No significant progress was made but good memories were brought about in remembering the hunt to find the toys.
I am hoping to have some of our group over to help give some ideas on displaying my collection.
May the Force Be With You Always

I still think it would have been awesome if you would have gotten the display shelves from Media Play before they closed...
Star Wars related? Um... I played SW RPG last night with some friends. Steve the Garbageman died in like the first 5 minutes. It was fun times had by all.

RE: SW Blog
Your idea on Media Play was most awesome; however when I got the message I was in Florida and when I got back work exploded and I never ever recovered. So I am SOL, but I do know the Sam Goode store in the mall is suffering the same fate, they are owned by the same company so I will have to watch more carefully.
Today continued cleaning and dusting. Came across a vintage C-3PO and vintage Luke both 12 inch and in box. I was given those as a gift. I wish I was still getting those type of gifts today. MTBWYA

RE: SW Blog
wow, an SW Blog, simply brillant:-)
and so KUDOS to vaderisone, for starting the thread,
by deciphering what ever I posted into ...uh....exactly what I meant,
and I didn't even know it at the time.
Believe it or not, I was trying to figure out how to get my
Darth Vader PEZ dispenser (the silver looking one with glowing eyes)
to stop sticking shut when closed. It is so hard to open, I fear
pulling the head off.
In other news, getting PEZ.COM to fill my order for PEZ,
has not been working out to well.
or
Placed the order 11-30-05 and they still have not filled it.
phone calls are politely answered with call back next month!
What a life, Pez and Star Wars:-)

RE: SW Blog
How Star Wars has affected my life recently?
1. BDZ found a couple of boxes of fruit roll-ups in our basement and I stopped him from feeding them to the boys when the price tag said 2002, so BDZ dumped them into the trash, broke the boxes down and put them into recycling. THEN I realized, we could've sold them to VIO for hundreds of dollars, if BDZ hadn't opened the boxes, lol.
2. Had to stop multiple attempts at duels this morning, when our niece got hold of the Darth Maul saber.
(Wow, I'm so proud of myself for actually answering to the topic at hand, lol)

RE: SW Blog
Why is it, nobody can do a decent spinoff on SW. I realize that the Clone War Cartoons were successful and I enjoyed them.
However prior to this event everything was lame. I tried to sit with my 3 y/o soon to be 4 and watch the Cartoon series Droids and man did it suck. They had lame characters who looked more like characters from Seasemee Street rather than SW.
How hard is it, get some storm troppers, couple light sabers, some ships that fly in space and how can you go wrong.
My blog for the day.

RE: SW Blog
Can not decide if I should try and get the
George Lucas StormTrooper figure....
always, thought StormTroopers should be Left Handed,
but have no idea if George is left or right handed.
oh well, more research:-)

I haven't read a good SW book in a while (the pre-SW3 novel being the last). Any recommendations? Are the new post-NJO books out yet?

RE: SW Blog
I say get the Storm Trooper, nice figure and good detail (really looks like Lucas).
I wrote a review of the latest SW book I read and it is solid, not as good as Labrynth of Evil but not bad.
Hey BDZ, when was your book released?
No good updates, the cleaning continues almost daily as I am attempting to get my collection in one room by next week. Of course when everything is out of the totes that will be most impressive.

Aiden thought he was Darth Vader today, when he put the headrest cover to the recliner over his face and walked around mumbling in a deep dark voice and breathing like Vader
Dude, you wrote a review of a book? Did I read that right? I barely did that when it was assigned in school, lol. Just teasing you!

RE: SW Blog
OKay, I'll bite on to the 'blog' thang..
Speaking of finding old SW snacks, I was cleaning out the pantry and found I still had the Star Wars branded Pop-Tarts. Are those things like Twinkies and have a shelf-life of a century?
And XMav, SW RPG sounds like fun. I would love to play sometime.
End of Blog entry.
Kenobi out.
