I find the political controversy about Star Wars III kinda funny.
I believe the conservative site "Free Republic" is also calling for a boycott since they consider Lucas anti-american.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"Free Republic" is also calling for a boycott
Yeah, good luck with that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

- God save me from co-workers who need to woefully talk comment on what I'm eating.
- Co-workers who don't answer my e-mails need to be TASERed.

As if it wasn't established 30 years ago that the freedom-loving Republic was betrayed and brought down so that a power-mad Emperor could take control.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My Star Wars action figures saw much use too. They also had many makeshift starships made out of cardboard.
I spent the three years between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi playing with my Princess Leia figure pretending that she was a bounty hunter bargaining for Han Solo with Jabba the Hut. I swear. When it actually happened, I wanted to sue Lucas for copying me. Granted, I was 13.

Much peace-ma and sympathy for shrift's and her family's loss.
Lots of health-ma to Deena's father.
Hippo birdies to Corwood and belated ones to Vortex.
That is all (finally caught up).

Hmm, now I have something to feel good about for giving Lucas some more of my money. Whoda thunk it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Isaac's line was the one that always got me about "Happy Birthday"
ISAAC: Someone holds the copyright to "Happy Birthday"?
DAN: The representatives of Patty and Mildred Hill.
ISAAC: It took two people to write that song?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I love that line too, but I couldn't find it in the transcript I had.
