  Re: Guarded Inn ?
 
(...) Doh! I just plugged an auction in .castle! (Apologies...) DaveE (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
In lugnet.starwars, Mike Petrucelli writes: (major snippage) (...) It failed my "Emperors New Clothes" test. Emperor with non-existant clothes that no one wanted to admit weren't there, but a child pointed out weren't there? Okay, so I explain (...)

  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) And when are those blue-eyed minifigs going to come out? Not many people have black eyes, much less black mouths (or are we doing Gothic LEGO people?) Chris (removing his sarcasm hat) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) I (...) They same thing you call yourself. Human. Either I am mentally well beyond the rest of you or I am so naive it is not funny. -Lord Insanity (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) Lando (...) I couldn't agree more that humans are ignorant. So, no one cared that Han and Luke were yellow. And, IF they release a Lando, and he's yellow, I'll buy him. I would want brown, but I'd buy yellow. But are you telling me that you (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) All mini-fig humans are yellow. Billy Dee Williams is human therefore a mini-fig copy of him would be yellow. What is so difficult about this. No one cares that Mark Hammill and Harrison Ford were made yellow. (...) Ah but if you go to my (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: suing TLC for discrimination (was: Re: A simple answer)
 
(...) Seems like those who have been promoted in my company have removed their heads, but forgot to reattach them afterwards :-) -Duane (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) again, (...) an (...) It's (...) brown (...) Like Dave says, if this is true, then Vader should have had a yellow head too. He's a Star Wars "person/character" too. Yes, I understand that it is gray for effect, and I want it to be gray, not (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) I think the "American" part refers, right-or-wrong, to North America, South America, or "the Americas," without getting into one nation or another. Similarly, I had a professor from England who was just a few generations removed from Africa, (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: suing TLC for discrimination (was: Re: A simple answer)
 
(...) Perhaps. But then so could anyone who felt that she'd been denied a promotion because she has four fingers and a thumb instead of the minfig style of hand. Likewise anyone who'd missed a promotion because he couldn't remove and reattach his (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) But what you're not incorporating into this assertion is the fact that, at least on some level, the development of the characters was influenced by the actors themselves. Luke's run-in with the Wampa (sp?) was dictated by an accident suffered (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?
 
(...) I know that I've snipped lots, but I wanted to ask about this in particular. On the spectrum of diseases, does this actually count as _easy_ to pass along? I have handled AIDS patients on a few occasions (that I know of) and I seem to be (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

In all rights they should be Native Canadians, we are the bigger country (1) no matter what the "neighbours" think... <<KM>> (1) landmass wise, not economically, we're (...)

  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) But that makes them absolutly NO DIFFERENT as a mini-fig. If mini-Han and mini-Luke had tan heads then it would make sense for mini-Lando to have a brown head. However they are not based on the actors. Mini-Luke and mini-Han have yellow heads (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) Look at the top-right pic; click on it to enlarge. At the top middle of the poster, there is a 'fig with a white construction hat... it has a black head. (...) Well, certainly of SOME of them, if not all... -Shiri (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) I *know* they're characters. Here's my point. Tell me the name of the guy who is portrayed by the Indian Cheif. The actual guy. There isn't one! It's just a generic figure. Now, I can tell you the names of the guys who are portrayed by the (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Why is AIDS such a big deal?

  Re: Why can't we have a Lando: Lego's Race policy
 
(...) ?? Which one? I didn't see any black heads in any of them. I saw a couple 'figs with black hair, but none with black heads (or at least, none visible). I think part of the point (of at least a couple) of the posters is that all of them are the (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
