I re-read all of the Percy Jackson books (including the Heroes of Olympus ones). I remember quite liking all of them when I was 11 so it was weird when I found that only two (out of ten) of the books were any good. The Lightning Thief was an 8/10, and The Titan’s Curse was 7/10. Apart from that, they were all pretty rubbish. If I were to rank them (my favourite hobby!) it would go like this:

Is the 2001 in your name the year you were born in, then?

Yes. To a fourteen year old your eleven year old personality was a completely different person.

Tell me about it. Well, I guess I’m no longer the youngest regular on the forum.

I’m reading the new book, Destiny and Power: The American Odyssey of George Herbert Walker Bush by Jon Meacham. I love reading biographies about great leaders. I recommend Truman by David McCullough and Eisenhower: Soldier and President by Stephen Ambrose. RicOlie_2 don’t you appreciate learning about history?

I do, indeed. Maybe I’ll give those a look once I’ve finished some of the other books I’m reading. When I had the time to do so, I ended up reading 40 books at once. I’ve since pared it down to about 20, but I’m still trying to finish all those before I pick up something new… 😛

Well, it’s a good think I stopped watching while it was still, good, I guess…?

Sounds great! I think you’ve got the drums better balanced than you did in some of your older songs. They blend in a bit better in this one (I guess whether that’s a good thing or not depends on the song).

I don’t want to bump Die Hard off the list, but I’d say that It’s a Wonderful Life beats it as a Christmas movie. I guess only the frame of the story is really set on Christmas Eve, though.

Oops, what Neglify said. I thought I was in one of the ranking threads, for some reason.

They’re parodies of LuckyGungan’s multiple ranking threads, and some are parodies of the parodies.

Or, you can set your keyboard to allow Spanish characters:

Ah, of course. Well, you’ll have more time once you’re retired, so you should be able to do the RST and the RPT:SE, right?

Another reason to make a special edition after you finish the ROT. You’ll need something to keep you busy when you retire. 😉

Since it’s been a while, here’s a new clip. Everything is done except replacing the security hologram, which is a ways off still.

You should add “Miss you I will” near the end of that scene, and have Yoda tell everyone he leaves that he will miss them, even if their absence is very temporary. I’m not sure if you’re already planning to do that elsewhere, but I figured that line should be used (lots) after reading this post:

Also, my absolute favorite to bring up, the Chewie/Yoda romance.

OT Yoda “missed not” everyone. Especially another OT character that was in the PT for two hot seconds (and for no reason) and never met Yoda in the OT.

what movie is that from?

I know am going to regret this, but where do I rank?

I’d tell you, but I’m far too lazy to figure it out.

Don’t worry, because they’re a team, all of their positions in the list get added together, placing them somewhere around 30,000th.

But there’s 23,997 other members.

I’m sure he’s better than at least some of the hit-and-run-I-want-a-free-invite-to-myspleen-ers (who likely constitute half of all forum members)?

Bosk’s at 19,610.

I do in fact matter, but I didn’t want to stir up controversy by placing myself second to Ric Olie. I think my username does that well enough as it is.

1. Ric Olie

No one else matters.

I read the books…

anyone else still making good use of a dinosaur?

I had a bunch of toy dinosaurs when I was little, but I don’t use them anymore.

Good luck! I’m glad to hear you’re trying to get off of that stuff (and that other stuff).

It’s one of the few that made me laugh out loud, which is saying something (my enjoyment of humour is usually very self-contained when I’m only sharing it with myself).

Love the song choices (especially the Carpenters one)!

Why the crap would you watch the third season of The Clone Wars before the first two?
