Thank you for your patronage.

Yes, but if we decide to delineate between Dayv's garbage, pump-up-my-post-number posts and his real, quality posts, then he'd wind up owing us money.

So Bossk did you send your letter to Mr. Ebert? And If so did he reply?

Anyone contact Harry Knowles or should I do that as well?

Wrong one. I thought it would have to either be GHW Bush or, preferably, Reagan.

Actually, I think motti's right. Dubya would love to put warheads in orbit over the Middle East.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Dubya & STAR WARS???

FBI would have to search every Sandcrawler that Jawas have.
Sand People would be shot at sight.
You won't be able to sign up for the Academy if you had Watto's accent. (hint: has courses on piloting spacecraft)
Imperial seal would have little white stars and buffalo horns.
Palpatine would have Texan accent.
Vader would wear cowboy's hat (instead of helmet) and belt.
Ion engines would be retrofitted to use petrol as a fuel.
Stormtroopers would be shouting "hou-yaa!" and "semper fi!".
Rebels would be considered "terrorists".
Luke Skywalker would have moustache and tanned skin.
We could only see Leia's eyes as the rest would be obscured by her black clothes.
...

Disclaimer: I have nothing against USA, the Lone Star State or Texan people...

I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

I'm sure Dubya would like to also. But his papa and Reagan were the most renowned backers of the Star Wars Program.

Hey, AICN update.

Aparently Moriarty has been having health trouble lately (we wish him well) so I emailed Harry Knowles directly with a nice letter, so hopefully I will hear from him soon.

Nothing like endearing yourself to the website owner/operators to get your cause heard about.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

So, any word from either Ebert or Knowles?
