    Date Posted: 1/3/04 11:45am Subject: YODA'S WORDS.......YOUR THOUGHTS!


    Well now......a couple of days into the New Year and I figure ya'll need some serious mental 'fencing' to bust outta the holiday stupor. SSSsssoooooo.........

    If you feel up to it, peruse this somewhat lengthy list of timeless tidbits from the Master himself. After doing so, present your thoughts on how Yoda's words might relate to your own lives and experiences....or simply convey your perception of how Yoda's words played upon the movie(s). I've put my responses in parenthesis to set the tone.

    And yes, SS, detailed dissertations are always welcome!



    Here we go.......




    "Come, come! This way....good food, come!"
    (Back home, the Bradenton City Pier with it's spectacular overlook of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge and it's outrageous seafood platters!)

    "That, not ready for the burden were you."
    (When my beloved English Mastiff, BRUTUS, a rescue dog I had for five years, had to be put down because of his back legs failing a couple of years ago, I cried like a baby for several days.)

    "If you believe in what they fight for.....yes!"
    (As a Marine, I always knew in the back of my mind that I might have to sacrifice myself, or others under my command to accomplish the mission......nightmarish stuff, that.)

    "One thing remains."
    (And I'm hard at work on that as we speak!)

    "READY???? What know you of ready!?"
    (Is anybody ever really ready, I ask ya!?)

    "Will he finish what he begins?"
    (Come Hell or high-water, by May 1st, 2005!!!)

    "How you get so big, eating food of this kind?!" (Well......Big Mac, big gut......thus the question is made moot!)

    "It is the future you see!"
    (I see a Convention Center from on high, but I see not it's exact locale, DANG IT!!!!)

    "He is too old...yes, too old to start the training."
    (You're never too old to learn, boopy! Suffice it to say, the day you stop learning is the day you pass on...and maybe not even then!)

    "Powerful Jedi was he.....powerful Jedi!"
    (Yea, Anakin was powerful, but I still say Yoda was secretly rambling on about himself!)

    "No more training do you require....already know that which you need."
    (The day we quit training, for anything, is the day complacency sets in......and Murphy follows close behind!)

    "Mud hole? SLIMY!? My home this is!"
    (Ah yes, I've taken quite a liking to the "Tracey Mountain Retreat" as Jen puts it.......contradictory to the probable feelings one particular post-tyrant
    has about his hole!)

    "Always emotions, future."
    (Ain't that the ever-lovin' truth!!!)

    "That....is why you fail."
    (I've failed in so many ways, I've run outta paper for the list!)

    "Wars not make one great!"
    (History has shown that most great warriors were subdued souls, quietly contemplative about what they had been through.....or they fell on thier swords & went on to become politicians! FLOL!)

    "Always with you what cannot be done."
    (I'm turnin' the corner on this one with my 'project'!)


    "Told you I did....reckless is he."
    (But at age 45, my sparse wisdom is finally starting to settle in.....thank the Force!!!)

    "Hear you nothing that I say?!"
    (Life, and the wife keep hollerin', but all that granite makes gettin' through mighty tough!)

    "Why should you want to become Jedi?"
    (You know, I never really thought about it much, but I'm proud to say my whole dang life has been literally defined by helping others, defending the helpless, giving strays a home, putting criminals behind bars and being a peace-keeper! Does it help that I love to wail on things with a sword!? FLOL!!!!!)

    "NO!!!! No difference! Only different in your mind."
    (And in my mind, BOYO, is it different!)

    "Strong with the Force am I, but not that strong."
    (Yea, I don't want to live forever...what's the challenge in that?!)

    "Always has he looked away, to the future, to

    I'd rather be playing with those sims than sitting here at work answering stupid questions. Helpdesk support can sometimes be amusing. Like today someone asked where their printer was, it was missing. After a few minutes of asking tough questions, it turned out to be a report missing from his print queue. Of course, if I had time, I would have made a milk carton with a missing printer picture on it! LOL Dreaming of flight sims right now (and seriously considering getting back to flight school!, miss flying).
