I'm going to see it again tonight. 

[ignom]

I was hoping for the Simpsons, but whatever the second movie is called, that's what's on. Ewan McGregor is fighting Boba Fett's dad or something like that.

A girl at the grocery store had her hair in Leia buns.

Did you ask for her number?

If she'd been ten years older I would have.

Oh, and stupid AOTC is pre-empting Family Guy tonight.

Oh, by girl you meant girl.

Totally annoyed at that one

Orson Scott Card is a troubled soul.

Hey, I have a question...

If being a Jedi is a genetic thing, and Jedis aren't allowed to breed, how do they hope to renew the supply of Jedis? It'd be like if all redheads joined a celibate monastic martial order. Eventually, there'd be no more naturally occurring redheads.

It would seem that while it is genetic( Anakin -> Luke/Leia -> Leias children, etc ) its also a seemingly random sensitivity to the force.  IIRC, the novels include having luke's children( with Mara Jade ) and Leia's children.

Why even imagine such a horrible thing?

Because of it's sheer impossibility! We all know you're too pretty to join a celibate monastic martial order.

One part of the storyline I'm not particularly keen on has Jedi being "created" by the force itself, aka Anakin's lack of an actual father.  Some people credit this to the Emporer as having using the force to "create" in Shmi Skywalker a child where there was none before.  I think it's kind of silly but then again, Yoda as a bad-ass is stretching a bit too and for the most part, I accept that too.

Size matters not.

It's not the size of the force, it's how you use it.

Only sometimes.  Some of your kind actually ponied up with some honesty on this matter once.  I think she was shot shortly thereafter.

I think the Yoda as a badass thing stems from those 80 year-old Kendo masters in Japan. The guys are all old and crinkly, and use canes to walk up to the arena, then they go like BAM!!! and beat the ass of some young guy (in Kendo), then they walk away all slow and shit.

I gave my honesty.

Alice is totally right.  It's all in the hips.

Yeah, the girl that came out and said it mattered - obviously never had a guy do it right.

This would explain your aversion to Dick Cheney.
