Did you never see ‘The Peacekeeper Wars’ 2-episode mini-series? It wrapped everything up rather nicely, I thought.

AKA the Manville Gas Gun...

And no one ever mentions the XM-18, although I’ve seen it on several worlds, in a dozen different centuries, with many different capacities.

Most of Edgar Rice Burroughs by the time I was 13, then moved on to Robert E. Howard until about 16, then Michael Moorcock until joining the Navy.

Apparently. I don't have a canon reference handy, but Chewy was fully grown in the pre-quels and looked identical to his 25-year later appearance in episode VI.

Exactly. If a cop stops your girlfriend and rapes her, she just needs to comply, mover her hips a little, say a few nice things about how big he is, and later, after she's had a rape kit inspection [basically another, beneficial rape] at a hospital, you can press charges and hope the humiliation in court doesn't make…

Actually, when I lived in SoCal but commuted often to Toronto, LAX was a breeze. For no good reason that I know of, the AirCanada [very expensive but not a lot of choices] departures were a 5 minute walk from check-in.

Consider, also, that Lucas himself has said he basically lifted the plot and characters from 'The Hidden Fortress' by Akira Kurasowa, with Toshiro Mifune and Misa Uehara. Which was a movie based on a story about four centuries old to begin with.

Any Canadians with Amazon Prime want to weigh in? I'm tempted to get it, have Netflix and shomi [Rodgers] and this would get me HBO at least, and I wouldn't mind that at all. But Netflix Canada is an almost completely different catalog from NetUK and NetUS, so I don't want to make assumptions before I commit.

Krull, The Warrior King.

I like the tiny, inconsequential world-fact that my personal hero, Chris Hadfield, won the TopGun 'trophy' when he trained there.

Let's see, all the males in Angel, including cross-over Spike, and I wouldn't say he was very kind to any of the males in Avengers/SHIELD....

This show needs, no, I NEED THIS SHOW, to be on Netflix this winter.

I will now have to play with that app. Thanks!

The last four times I've had rooms painted [I'm old and crippled, so I wouldn't be able to do it even if I wasn't lazy] I bought the paint separately. They supplied dropcloths, brushes, tape, etc out of their own truck and I paid a flat rate. Dining room took 2 coats, about 8 hrs of actual work, and they cleaned up.…

These people don't like or respect each other - the wife doesn't want to be intimate with him for a variety of reasons and doesn't even make an effort to be convincing. The man is a whiny wimp. They need to split.

I've filled a freezer bag with very warm water and just laid it over fish - sort of a reverse water bed. I didn't detect and damage, but it was trout, not sole, so there may be limitations at the more extreme ends.

In fact, from what I've been told, one of the very problems is that bounce back - plus the suspension on the gear - that can cause the craft to suddenly boing around with very little control - especially shear to the side.

Newk'-u-ler if I recall it correctly.

The narrator needs a thorough beating. But otherwise excellent.
