In reply to He of the Elbow Patches (msg # 12):
Given the discussion it seems prudent to provide a REAL introduction, and not a movie quotation.
Intel Specialist with the Navy Reserves for the past 10 years, just came off a year of active orders and am between jobs as chaos in the world of contracting comes to a close.
pursuing a degree in history, and that's probably the one gripe I have with SW and it's attempts to chart it's ancient past. The change between the movies and four thousand years prior to that is purely aesthetic. The technology, the culture, the languages, etc, remain constant. I understand why that is; so that it still has all the appropriate looks and feels of the franchise, so this is really just a complaint from a point of love.
I was introduced to Star Wars by my father (who himself was a Navy man), who took my brother and I to see the Special Edition release of all three movies, and I was hooked from the start.
My daughter and princess Angelica is home sick from daycare with a fever, so I was hoping to take an opportunity to have a mini SW marathon today, but she had other plans....
