Hi, all! Wow, talk about me leaving this RIGHT to the last minute. Well it's May 5th, the last day to enter MOCs for the contest, and here is mine. I don't have the presentation of the Sight Hound contest entry, and my camera was giving me troubles, but I think I have conveyed the point well enough. I present the IP560 Industrial Processor Vessel. In this case the ship has been configured to process Gungans for the production of GUNGAN SPAMCAKE! :^D Not everyone may be aware, but there are large fishing trawlers in use today that catch, clean, process and can the fish (ie: salmon) right on board. This is the same idea. But for our most beloved Gungan minifig character. Some may question as to whether it is ethical to carve up sentient creatures. We at the Astro Lift Company simply remind the consumer that the question as to whether or not a Gungan is actually "sentient" let alone a creature that deserves humanitarian rights is in debate. We expect the litigation to take years. In the mean time, have another helping of GUNGAN SPAM! It's good for you! You can also strip paint with it! Here is my main site home page: http://members.home.net/tpruden3/index.html And here is a direct link to my Astro Lift page for the contest entry. http://members.home.net/tpruden3/IP560.html Now, remember, this is supposed to be satyrical, and is not intended to offend the vegetarian, vegan or rights activists. If you find the carving up of Gungans offensive, please do not follow the above link. Personally, the thought of the big fish processing ships in use today make me a bit queezy. But comments are appreciated. :^) Waddy'all think? ~Trev Astro Lift Co.

That is one of the most novel ideas for a space ship I have ever seen, not to mention it's freaking hilarious! Gungan Spamcake! (24 years ago, 5-May-01, to lugnet.space)

Hmmm... Killing innocent aliens just to process them into food... Very sick prospect... Not much different to what the Nazis did to Jewish people in WWII. Of course they didn't turn them into food, but used them for "experiments". I know that you (...) (24 years ago, 6-May-01, to lugnet.space)

Hey Trevor, I'd like to place an order for 38 cases of Gungan Spam Cakes! Yum. I really like the concept. It's quite different. My sister worked on a fish processing ship in Alaska (making fake crab meat), so I can sort of relate... I guess. : \| (...) (24 years ago, 6-May-01, to lugnet.space)

Trevor & All, (...) mine. (...) the (...) the (...) GUNGAN (...) Absolutely marvelous, Trevor. Although using Gungans as a processing food falls under the AP charter, which has not ruled on Gungan as sentient life or not. ; ) All joking aside, (...) (24 years ago, 7-May-01, to lugnet.space)

Here you go Trevor. A more "personal" way to get Gungan Spamcake. You can browse through the stockyard and pick the best specimen of Gungan available. :) (URL) 718 (...) (24 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.space)
