SilverWook

Ouch! I've never heard of being awake for wisdom teeth removal. I had three removed when I was in high school, but they couldn't find the fourth one. Also had two baby teeth removed around the same time that were causing problems, because the adult replacements never showed up.

It was at this point I suspected I might be a mutant. ;)

This was soon followed by several years of painful orthodontics, elastics that made it hard to talk, and a retainer designed to "train" my tongue to not laterally thrust against my teeth. "Lateral tongue thruster" sounds really kinky now that I think about  it.

Damn retainer would stink really quickly if I ate with it in, and McD's french fries would make it unbelievably gooey for some reason. The braces conducted cold as well. I wasn't rid of the damn things until I was almost through college.

In the mid 70's, I was treated for a benign tumor deep inside my upper gums by a dentist that could have given Steve Martin's dentist from Little Shop of Horrors a run for his money. A nasty person like that shouldn't be allowed to treat children.

I suspect another dentist from the early 80's of needlessly putting fillings in, as I've not had cavities since then.

I am very thankful I have an honest and kind dentist today. He looks disappointed when he can't find anything amiss with my choppers though.

The obvious answer is FE.org.

 Are you offering? :)

 Why not?  There was an FE thread here while it was down.  Certainly we could have an off topic thread just to keep people updated.  Anything beyond that I'd probably have to run it by the team first, though.

 I forgot about that. One plus is a bunch of people here already post over there.

A long outage might be a pain in the butt for you, unless you could make a subforum where project threads from here could be continued. Maybe you could keep it locked when things are hunky dory over here.

Let's all just meet up at Silverwook's place.

 It's a bit of a climb, and the lower levels are dangerous even for Wookiees. ;)

That would be like mixing matter and anti-matter. Not a good idea. ;)

JEDIT: I refer to TFN, not FE.

If you don't have it already, you might want to pick up The Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. More Fozzie dialog, and this disturbing scene might be good for Jabba's palace. ;)

I have the old DVD, (full frame) but a remastered wide screen version came out in 2010, and a Blu Ray came out this year.

Twitter is even less suited to this sort of thing, and I loathe it anyway. ;)

Star Wars Celebration, coming up in April, would be a good time to announce something...

*Vader doesn't calmly say "alert my star destroyer blah blah blah" when he's seething with rage.

The "alert my star destroyer" line originally came from a deleted Star Wars (1977) scene, hence it doesn't fit the Cloud City shuttle scene.

 Whatever the actual source, it still sounds like JEJ with a bad cold. ;)

J.J. and company aren't suppressing the OOT.

We still don't know what Disney's OOT plans are, because they haven't told anyone yet. Postpone the boycotts for now.

I'm sure he kept it under a tarp behind his hut on Tatooine for many years, until the bottom rusted out. ;)

You'll believe reindeer can fly. ;)

You'd think it would have aired someplace in the past two months. The Santa Clause movies get run right into the ground of course.

AMPS has moved to it, so I have little choice if I want to keep up with certain things. ;)

Does this help? ;)

Couldn't find a screenshot on short notice...

Or is it? ;)

Was there another outage overnight? I had to log back in again.

I discussed an emergency site with Jay not too long ago. There are alternatives to using reddit.

Yeah, for that kind of dough I want a DVD-ROM at the very least. I pared down my collection to mostly the original Marvel run, and the Dark Horse reprints of the original newspaper strips, so I'm good.

I do wonder if Marvel is going to reprint any DH material down the line.

Anybody got $300 to burn? ;)

Excellent!

Madder and madder.  Him and Putin sound like they're right out of a Monty Python sketch. One of those written by Cleese and Chapman, to be specific.

 Putin invited him over recently. Who knows if he'll accept? Not sure who's the master or the apprentice in that scenario. ;)

Problem is he plays with real life soldiers already. ;)

The whole regime depends on people viewing him as practically a god. Gods do not use the loo. When reality eventually crashes in on NK, some of it's people are in for a nasty psychological wake up call.

Kim Jong Un is a strange person. Most dictators usually are. The guy looks like an evil Pugsley Addams to begin with. Only Pugsley had a better haircut.

Only Jay will be able to say for sure, and he's probably still enjoying the holidays. Patience...

Been sampling the marathon on BBC America. (Now that my crappy cable company actually lets me see it.) Why aren't they showing any Christopher Eccleston episodes? Seems a curious omission.

No idea what caused that mess, and since I never heard back from Jay, I presume he's enjoying the holiday.

I'm sure he will be able to tell us what happened when he returns.
