  Re: The Real Chosen One?
 
I've been picking up the Star Wars Fact File in Australia over here, and it never mentions R2's built-in rockets on his two outer traction arms. It would seem then that we're not the only ones who aren't caught up on SW facts! :-) If you browse over (...) (22 years ago, 26-May-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Re: Launch of HMAS Ballarat
 
(...) Neat! Thanks for sharing these. Now THAT is a flared bow, yessirree. It's nice that you folks get to actually see your launchings--they won't let us very close to ours; we had a nice AEGIS destroyer go into the water last year--the last "real" (...)

  Launch of HMAS Ballarat
 
Well, yesterday I went to the launch of HMAS Ballarat, the 8th ANZAC frigate launched at the Tenix shipyards. This leaves just 2 more to be launched from the contract for 10, worth around AU$6 billion. The ballarat will now be fitted out & trialed (...)

It was closed for a private party (pre season party for their employees, actually) but one of the security guards, when (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-02, to lugnet.loc.us.oh, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) I see what you mean but I think you've missed his point. He means that Anakin seemed to be a great pilot right from the start; he was an excellent pilot, not an accomplished one; no experience made him great, he just is. Personally I disagree (...)

  Re: The Real Chosen One?
 
(...) I may be missing something 'cause I refuse to stand in line more than half hour for any movie (besides star trek ;) ) so I havent seen AOTC yet, but I saw ANH when I was 10 and it looked to me that Darth Vader was a pretty accomplished pilot.

(...) No one tries to explain away aparent inconsistencies more than I do but I still have a real problem with the word "accomplished". I mean to say that as a boy Anakin was awesome behind the controls of any kind of vehicle may be correct, but the (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  Re: Just Revenge
 
(...) You know, the really sad part about this is that the MSRP of the Star Destroyer is $251.05, so obviously the store automatically calculated your credit into the price before you even saw it. James (22 years ago, 23-May-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

  Just Revenge
 
A few years ago I returned half of a box of Pop-Tarts to the local branch of a major retailer. The finks wouldn't give me my money back, since I had no receipt, and they wouldn't give full credit, since more than half the product was missing. I had (...)
