    *sniff* "I tell you, it's a cold! A cold!" *sniff...sniff*

    No, it's not......

    Bye T!!!!!!!!! CA promises to be nice, and keep you company. We'll be waiting to hear all about it.

    And btw, I do call all of you friends. I'd laugh at your birthday jokes, cry at your weddings, and sob at your funerals. You've all filled my days and nights with endless laughs and tears. I've been lucky to know you.

    ok it seems that i am now confused..i know i am too late but bye taramidala...

    as for the rest of you having discussions on sw with people like you makes me feel good...i mean i can't talk about it with my friends here cause they all aren't "fan-atical" and some hate sw...so having fans like me to ltalk to is extremely good...

    word of advice..dc metro..have plans to deal with crowds on major holidays...very important..

    i saw the fweks in dc and was upset only by the fact that we sat in front of a giant tree on the mall..other then that it was cool

    Okay, Wormie, as you requested- I got the trivia game going again over at Express. We've picked up a few new folks over there, so I invited them over here. Someone set a few more places at the Starbucks table. (Man, why do I always get stuck at the %$^*#^%$ kiddie table?!? "Yeah, Grandma, I made dinner all gone-gone, now get me some more wine!)

    I know it's too late, but, BYE T!!!!!!!!

    JD: Lookout!! She's gonna blow!!! If she does go the natural childbirth method, I recommend you stand back and keep a minimum safe distance of at least three feet. Women in labor have a tendency to grab any appendage they can cling to to bring you the maximum amount of pain. This is called "sharing the experience". (Trace had them strap me on a table and wax my legs while she was in labor- her idea of "sharing the experience".)

    CA: Remember, T is young and innocent- let's keep her that way. Ahem, ahem. Of course, I'm joking. Have a blast at the Barbican.

    GAT: No message?? C'mon, you have to do better than that. People are throwing polls out right and left- they're usurping your power-base. You gonna do something about it??? Huh??? Huh????

    QGT, dh's hand went numb when I was in labor, cuz I was squeezing it so tight. And my version of getting him back was to have him sleep on the twin-size hideaway bed in the room. He said his back hurt for a week afterwards. Oh yeah, and I got him back by not letting him take a whirlpool bath with me. LOL

    Well, can we start trivia over here too? That was fun!!!

    Ooooh, trivia! Can I ask the first question?

    How many times does Luke say "May the Force be with you" throughout the OT?

    CA: Deal! We should have one some time this week!

    PIXIE: Poor QGT kept wanting to hold my hand but I wouldn't let him because he always grabbed the IV site - which was hurting about as bad as having the baby! I'm tellin' you, these veins weren't built for an 18 gauge needle! Next time I'll bring my own! (I'm a nurse-in case anyone was wondering where I would get such a thing!) :)

    JEDI15: Re the trivia - I can only think of one time that he says it, I think.

    PIXIE, TRACE and QGT, it'll be a c-sar due to problems from the earlier two so at least I'll get to make 'cutting' remarks with my 'sharp' wit!!! (And I can foresee that with jokes like that I'll be REEEEAAAAAALLLLLL popular in the operating theatre - I don't think!!)

    It's all supposed to happen next Tuesday, but the quack thinks that the baby might have other ideas.

    I know what you mean about haing THIS place to discuss SW stuff. Before I found this place I'd say things like 'You know in ESB when *this* happens, well in ROTJ *that* happens and it shouldn't have!!' and people would just look at you like you've got chickens coming out of your ears or something.

    Having the chance to even DISCUSS things has made a hell of a difference, and even IMPROVED, my enjoyment of the four films. (Except I find myself looking for some of the bloopers that people mention rather than enjoying the film sometimes, so I tend to avoid reading those subjects.

    And yes, I regard you all as friends and if you're ever in Melbourne make sure you put a day aside to come up to the 'farm' and help me blast away the countryside with the SW soundtrack and videos. Hmmmm............maybe two days to get through all four.......

    I'm not so sure it's T we all should be worrying about. CA, for all the beer he seems to ingest, is probably a lot more innocent than we think!

    JD: LOL! I know exactly what you mean! When Ep.I was released I bounced into the office grinning from ear to ear and asked, "Any Star Wars fans?"

    silence

    Then, "Um...no," followed by some looks of sympathy and glances toward the phone number of the Employee Assistance Program...

    I found tf.n when I was getting excited about TPM. My dh is more of a trekkie(*sigh* I know...) so he isn't as into it as I was. At the time, I was a SAHM, so I couldn't share my enthusiasm with anyone else, but Obi-Ben, and look where that got me! I've got 2 medium size Rubbermaid containers full(I think they're 20gallon size, maybe bigger) of SW toys, plus a bunch of other toys still sitting in storage(I went crazy with the SW clearance sales, got a Millennium Falcon for $20, a Slave I for $10, and he must have over 80 figures by now)

    And all of this started when I was 8 years old, and saw ROTJ in the theater. And I've been hooked ever since. Also helped having a SW fan for a dad. Almost every time ANH was on Showtime, we watched it.

    It has taken me four hours to get logged in...
    *imagine a look of disgust here*

    Anyway, PIXIE, your post reminded me of a question that I have often wondered:

    How did everyone find TF.N?

    I was looking for a certain red-headed action figure and found a link on one of her sites. I just lurked around the discussion boards for about a month before finally signing up. Starbucks was the first place I really felt welcome!

    I think I followed a link to TF.N from another site. Once I found the JC, I was hooked!
    I lurked from about February last year, but only actually registered in July :(

    Thanks, CA. I did. =) Thank God for hostels with internet access. But after tomorrow...no more. And I've really got to stop spending my money on this crap, LOL.
