    I'm fifteen, homeschooled, I play soccer (badly,) and the piano. I like ice cream. I have three siblings, one brother, two sisters, all younger then I. I like Star Trek, Early Edition and Quantum Leap. I love Harry Potter. I'm Dahlee 2 in the Jar Jar Defense Force, and, in real life, a member of Camp Fire USA (a great organization-check us out at www.campfire.org )

    How about the rest of you?

    Well, let's see...

    I'm 23, married. I've been a SW geek since I was 3, though then I was too young to realize that my "toys" would be worth money someday, so the extensive collection I had are long gone...

    Anyway, my wife is 22 and wasn't much of a sci-fi fan 'til she married me.. I've turned her on to SW and now we both plan to go the the EPII premier in full SW regalia. Me as a Jedi Knight, and her as Padme.

    I work downtown as a Web Developer and although I have yet to attend a FanForce meeting, I am really looking forward to it. I like the idea of "informal" gatherings between meetings as well.

    Look forward to meeting y'all in person.

    My turn...
    I'm 22, married and have a baby on the way due to be born most likely on the opening day of EP2. (my luck) I got into SW when I was 17, but really got into it when EP1 was released. I've always been into drawing and writing poems, but I also like fantasy video games and movies like, Conan, Willow, Legend, etc. I recently got addicted to playing Half-Life(online), I guess it would be better if it was SW themed. Anyway, I don't know what else to say about myself, cept that I am jobless for now, and can't wait to meet all of you. Bye for now!

    Yeah I can't wait for that SW game! It's gonna kick butt......and as far as the baby names, I'm still thinking. I really like the name Amidala as a middle name though. We'll see. I'll let you all know when the time comes.

    Hey, I just started coming in hear a few weeks ago. I am 25, with a seven year old son. I am not married, but engaged. I am a student, and I hope to be a successful writer someday, soon. I have loved Star Wars since I can remember. My whole family loves Star Wars, so how could I not grow up loving it? Hope to meet some of you at the next meeting, I have never been. BUt, I would like to find someone to share line duty with for AOTC tickets. I am even thinking about getting a part time job at a theater right before it is released, so that I can have easy access. Catch my drift?

    Hi All. I'm Anne. 33. Common-law married. No kids. One sister - Joanie (Joanzia, you might have seem her posts around). I'm trying to start my own company so that's why I'm not a regular poster here. If you're a collector, I wrote the SirStevesGuide.com price guide and entered a lot of my own Star Wars collection in there.

    I just have to say that everyone that comes to the meetings are just plain good people and I enjoy our comradery very much. Joanie, BigChris, and I are all going to Celebration II. Who else is going? We're thinking about splitting the cost of a car rental.

    Also, if ya'll want to have more meetings, cool! Especially in this 6 months before E2. But, let's wait until this dreaded holiday month is behind us.

    Hope to see you all soon,

    -Anne

    well, my clan of campers will be set up at Gateway as usual. we camped for tickets and seats last time; 10 days, 9 nites. it was a continuous party. I 'm hoping that Gateway will be as accomodating as last time, LOTR should be the test run for that.

    a good number of us will be going to EII-cel as well.

    my stats: 24, single, software tester/breaker/supporter/analyst/HTML-coder/etc/etc...

    SW fan from the beginning.

    I've just found out about this place, so what do I need to know???

    By the way, I'm seeing LotR on wed night at 10. (work prevents me from camping out or seeing it sooner.)

    Sorry, hate to dissappoint, but I won't be there. I'm working. Damn money, because if it wasn't neccesary to pay for neccesities (food) then I'd skip work. But, I need my job and don't feel like getting fired. Oh well, I'll live without seeing y'all, I suppose. By the way, I work at HEB.
