	Name: David Age: 27 Location: Spokane (Browne's Addition specifically) SW Related Interests: The films first and foremost, both the Lucasfilm ones and those made by fans. Reign of the Fallen and Dark Resurrection to name a couple. What else... SW art (by fans and official), reading, "lightsaber" sparring (though I have next to no experience ) and socializing with fellow fans. Non-SW Related Interests: Drawing, listening to music (John Williams is high on my list, though not just for Star Wars), video games such as Halo 2, Metal Gear Solid, and even old skool Nintendo... too many things to list off the top of my tired head. How did you get started on SW: I've been a fan ever since I can remember. My earliest memory of watching ANY movie was sitting in the living room with Dad late one evening and watching ANH. I've been a fan ever since, but it dropped away for a few years when Star Trek: The Next Generation premiered back in '87. I became a die-hard fan again when the Special Editions came out. Later, I gave in to the dark side of fandom (being an unapologetic geek) when the prequel trilogy concluded and I bought my first Force FX lightsaber. I had wondered if there was an organized group of fans in this area and I'm pleased to find that there is! -----signature----- The disparity between light and dark is not as great as some may believe.

As for the BBQ, if it's in CDA I'll have a hard time getting out there. I work Saturday morning 7 AM to 2 PM (though I can get away whenever my relief shows up. Usually 1:30 these days.) The other problem is umm... I don't have a car. I walk 9 blocks to work and back and am at the mercy of the STA for everything else. So if I went, I'd have to hitchhike. -----signature----- The disparity between light and dark is not as great as some may believe.

	Hey, we have new Area Members! And I'm the first to notice??!?? Anyway... WELCOME TO THE SPOKANTINA!!! If you like to laugh, you've come to the right place. If you like the idea of costuming, you've come to the right place. If you've ever wanted to build (or learn how to build) some of those awesome props from the movies, boy have you come to the right place! Yes, we do talk a bit about Star Wars. The good news is, we also talk about other things... usually of a sci-fi nature (even Star Trek from time to time)... but, other things, nonetheless. We are able to (and occasionally even do) talk about current events regarding the world in-general. But we usually wind up redirecting it toward something geeky. It's what we do. Oh yeah, and a couple of our members are deeply involved with a new, yearly, sci-fi convention called SpoCon. Tons of fun. I highly recommend it, and can't wait until next year. Again welcome. Feel free to start your own Topics about things that interest you or that you are curious about. Also, this site has a lot of Discussion Boards that are just awesome. Browse. Have fun. -----signature----- Caught at a crossroads.... Not noble enough to be a Jedi.... Too clumsy to be a Sith.... The Force, though with me, is quite erratic....

	Name: Corvalis. Dave in RL Age: 28 Location: Spokane SW Related Interests: Star Wars Galaxies (long time player, not playing anymore), fan films, fan fiction, lightsaber duels, costuming (just getting started), PC games, movies (original over prequels any day), Clone Wars is growning on me (TV, not movie), Star Wars RPG (d6, d20, AND Saga!), and generally discussing anything related to Star Wars. Non-SW Related Interests: Pretty much anything Sci-Fi/Role-playing (that includes a few LARPS in my time) and tons of other stuff that I'm sure I have been/will be/will never be exposed to :P How did you get started on SW: My dad took me to ROTJ in theatres when I was a kid, and I've had a love for it ever since. Spent my time as a fan of most other Sci-Fi shows (You never forget your first Doctor) and been a geek since. Recently broke down and bought my first lightsaber, and I'm penning a script for my first fan film, which I'm trying to get a budget and cast together for. -----signature----- The path of the Light Side brings life and wisdom.

	* notices another new FanForce member * This is getting to be a bit of a habit. Suprising considderring I just had a harddrive burnout a couple of days ago. Where is everybody else??? Anyhoo, WELCOME TO THE SPOKANTINA!!! I noticed that you mentioned that you like to saber duel. Good for you. Particularly since we've recently (it's actually been over a year now) had a very cool member join (Smudge) who has a great deal of experience coaching duelers. It's been a blast. Cool, deadly, and yet safe. There's going to be a props workshop at his place next weekend, and there's usually a bit of saber play during the course of the proceedings. It's always a good time. I urge all of our new members to try to show up if they can. -----signature----- Caught at a crossroads.... Not noble enough to be a Jedi.... Too clumsy to be a Sith....
