Now just to clarify (and because I'm too damn lazy to read all the posts), a "parsec" is just a word made up by Lucas and not some actual measure of space and time, right? The 2.14 light years that Jimbo points out is just what LFL made up and is not real, right?

Okay, just went on a Brit TV bender on Netflix. I've got Fawlty Towers, The Office, and Coupling seasons in my queue. With how full my queue is now, I'm gonna need to live to 200 years old to watch 'em all.

To me, the only similarity between the OT and the PT is that they share the name "Star Wars". Otherwise I do try and separate them as much as possible. That allows me to enjoy AOTC a lot more. And I do. I really liked AOTC. Can't say the same about TPM, but I have only seen it once. So that could be a contributing factor. I've been meaning to give it a second chance, just haven't gotten around to it.

That's what I'm debating as well. As cool as my photoshopped Spirit Bossk is, I'm pretty much completely recognized via this avatar. It would be hard to say goodbye after using this one for so long.

Hey motti,

I'm gonna go shopping for Cubs hats this weekend and I've picked out a few possibilities. Let me know what you think of them. I have one of these stores near where I live so I won't be ordering them from the website (don't have to pay S&H if I get it in-store).

Nike MLB Fade In Cap
MLB Franchise Hat (need a size for this one - S, M, L, XL)
Dinger Cap
MVP Basic

I can't believe that they would actually commit themselves to anything this far in advance. I'll hold out until a month in advance and then start taking them at their word.

Columbus didn't do too terribly. He stayed pretty honest, but they were pretty light instead of the dark that I was imagining. Azkaban is a very dark book and the movie looks like it will reflect that fact well. I'm looking for to what Cuaron has done with the story. And I'm looking forward to seeing how Harris' Dumbledore replacement does.

There's only one Madison Square Garden, but I was under the impression that it was getting a new name as well. It's been around for... damn... I don't even know.

As for Rexall Place, you do realize that Rexall was recently sold by its original owners (I believe J.C. Penney) to CVS. So Rexall may not exist for much longer as CVS would have to rename them all so they could take the title of #1 pharmacy in terms of retail outlets from Walgreen's. They have more stores now with the Rexall buyout, but it would never really be official until the CVS name is on all of the old Rexalls. So your stadium name may change yet again.

It was our Rush to 10K. It'll slow down a bit now. I was posting everywhere in order to catch back up and pass motti. Now we're both probably just gonna post where we feel necessary.

And Motti and I are ready to put out a global APB on Dayv and Luke (who does post, but not at all regularly... slacker).

You have to learn lessons from history. If not, you truly are doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. I agree wholeheartedly.

I knew about the Geneva Convention regulations forbidding Japan to have an military presence outside its own country. I didn't know that had been overturned so I was surprised as hell to learn that Japan had presence in Iraq. Threw me for a bit of a loop.

That thing is just too damned sweet. But it's US$300. That's more than the PS2. Does this thing have outports to plug it in to a bigger screen say when you are in a hotel and want to use their TV? That might make it a bit more worthwhile.
