We were supposed to meet up 4 years ago when I was TDY at Vandenberg for training. Unfortunately, it never materialized.

Now I'm morbidly curious about this PM. I always looked at getting banned from there as a badge of honor.
I still love the photo of Chris and JediMac with PW. Priceless!

So you're saying that Hasbro hiring DePriest caused the econnomy to tank? I can get behind that!

Case assortments wouldn't be so bad if they had decent distribution.

On a personal note, I may be seaking out advice from you as our Great Dane, Buffy, is turning 10 in May. It's going to be a really rough patch for the entire family when it's her time.
As someone who has had to put three dogs to sleep in the last 5 years, all i can say is they will let you know when it is time.
My advice is to not think about it today....just enjoy them being with you.

« on: March 29, 2012, 11:50 PM »Went to the middle of nowhere Illinois last weekend and stumbled across a Lando at a Walmart. Haven't seen a hint of the rest of it... I miss the days when I could actually find a new figure in a real store.
Yeah....those were the good ol' days.

Really sorry to hear that Jesse. At least he's not in any pain now.

I finished the Apocalypse tonight. I thought it was a good book, and the series overall was decent. They have definitely left it open for a new series and it will be interesting to see where it goes from here.
I like how they tied in The Old Republic, The Clone Wars Cartoon, most of the Post ROTJ EU and the Legacy comics into one series. Some of it was a bit of a stretch at times (like the Darth Krayt portion) but they had hinted at the One Sith earlier when Ship returned to Korriban....so I wasn't rolling my eyes too much.
Some things that need to be addressed in future books:
- Somehow, Jagged Fell has to become the Head of State for the Empire again.
- Where did Vetara Khai end up?
- What will happen with the remnants of the Lost Tribe?
- Where will Daala end up?
- Allana has been revealed to have survived. How will this play out with the Throne of Balance vision?
I guess we'll have to buy more books down the road.

He is unconventional, but he's also motivated to be better. I have all the respect in the world for Peyton Manning, he's a true hall of fame QB, but I don't see him lasting 5 years. If they don't win the Super Bowl this year, they never will with Peyton.
