    I already sort of discussed this with Lance, he seemed to think it was important that we have an outpost here in Tucson. He requested/asked if I would be the head (he was under the impression nobody else of the 4 501st members in Tucson has any intrest). I really don't care who does it. After he explained why he (or they want a detachment in Tucson) I'm all for it.


    Jundland Wastes Outpost is my input. Remeber it's "Beyond the Dune Sea." Get it?

    It's practical and Punny! :rolleyes:

    Whatever happened with the "Mos Eisly Outpost" ?

    "You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villany..." Sounds a lot like Tucson to me.:p

    What does say something about Tucson?

    I'll do it, U do it whatever. U and Michele already have responsibilities associated and should not get sidetracked from them. I'll do it. We can always change it later

    We'll Pow-Wow on it next meeting (note 2 Kat: Please add).

    Lance said we can (and will) have graphics (patches, stickers, etc.) made up so I think names should be discussed.

    Don't want to have a dorkey name/graphic patch on our armor now do we? :cool:

    Junland Wastes has always sounded cool to me.

    I wonder why Lancer thinks the other 3 members of the 501st arent interrested...we have just been buisy... :(

    Ya know how it is, like playing telephone. It just gets confused. Too many cooks in the kitchen at once. IMHO.
    No harm done.
    I THINK that?s one reason why they want a dedicated outpost. It's just easier in information exchange and communication.

    PS.. Speaking of communication, I got my new cell phone. Calls should not just stop now 'cause the phone shuts off.

    http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/q/q-experience/q-Nonflash/index.html

    How I just have to learn how to use this thing. I had a Smart phone years ago (palm 3). An old black text brick, then got a PPC 2002, too much to carry around at once. This thing is totally different in every way. Microsoft and Motorola's version of a Blackberry (which I'm not too fond of).

    Also, I didn't buy any extra data service with it; internet or text messaging, which costs 15¢ per incoming text.


    Edited: 4 spelling

    I don't know if it is still the case but the Rebel Legion used to have in Arizona the Jundland Wastes Outpost . . . IIRC. Gabrielle [the other Mara Jade in the DSG] was the head of it.

    I and jack were told they have a professional graphic designer making logos for them and we're part of them so they will take care of that for us. I'm sure we have say but why do the work if someone else is willing?

    It might take a bit but when U get the "U R in" e-mail it's quite worth it.

    U'll get in with Revan, it's jut a matter of time.

    PS.. anyone talk 2 Beth about this? Is she going into the DSG and bypassing Tucson?

    Beth is the UA officer and scout trooper who I think was at the last Con, or maybe the one before? Shes the blonde that helped everyone into their armor at te ITT tech battlefront tourney

    She seems more interested in DSG events, which is fine, to each their own

    A long O time ago we had the "you'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy" as our banner. I remember a thing with an AT-AT appoaching the downtown skyscrapper.

    I don't know about you but as a kid I always related to Tatooine cuz Tucson was so friggin' hot and Mos Eisley until Mos Espa came along was a city/spaceport and what is Tucson. Phoenix is too big for a Mos Eisley. And yes we're a fast growing city but it's really just a bunch of crap everywhere.

    [image=http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d130/hal9k1/untitled.jpg]

    That's when I joined on the boards, I had no clue anyone else in Tucson liked Star Wars still. I had a different user name back then (I forgot the login many years ago). I was going to ask to re-use tne banner on the website (and the one with santa hats on the AT_ATs) but I didn't know who to ask if it's OK to reprint the images.

    As far as crap everywhere, it's just housing being built in the county, not much being built within the city limits.

    I still find "Jundland Wastes" outpost quite amusing and lyrical.

    We need to find a way to use this image, or a variation of it.

    I've always had a soft spot for AT-ATs.

    Someone brought up the rebel legion name possible conflict. "local" rebel legion outpost name is NOT Jundland Wastes but "Mountain Base" and covers Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico with 68 members in it total.

    How's about "FORT TUSCAN". Its simple, not too many letters, is similar to Tucson and has a rustic rough history associated with it. This due to the story of that fort on Tattoine that was raided by the Sand People. Plus its different from what's been suggested until now. Just an idea. You can no now. [face_whistling]
