I, Princess Barb of the Cell 2187 Alliance, award you, Jason, with a virtual Medal of Yavin, for correctly identifying “cell 2187.” Unfortunately, the Emperor got to it as it was being shipped back from the framer. Again, on behalf of the Cell 2187 Alliance, congratulations on a job well done.
Obi-Wan tries to book passage to Alderaan Aldershot**
I found this at The Muttering Muse. Thanks, Kestrel–may the Force be with you, says Master Kenobi.
** – Aldershot’s some town in the UK, you Yankees! OK, I looked it up on the Internet.
NOTE: Be warned–there is unsavory content on the movie site.
oh. my. God. i can’t believe that i haven’t announced the brand new incarnation of my Star Wars blog, Cell 2187 (blog deleted). duh. check it out! let me know what you think. and if you can tell me what “Cell 2187″ refers to, i’ll give you a virtual Medal of Yavin.
may the Force be with you.
For the past few weeks I haven’t been very excited about the December 6 release of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II (KotOR II), until I went back to the site today and saw the new stuff they put on there–trailers for Telos and Korriban, a number of weapons–only 4! Why only 4? The coolest looking one is the Charric, supposedly produced in the Unknown Regions, which is a disruptor rifle. I like disruptor rifles, though I don’t remember there being any in KotOR. The Rodians had them in JA, but it wasn’t called a Charric.
Every so often a swirling circle pops up at the center of the screen. Click on it to reveal a question. Depending on your answer, it will indicate whether you’re headed toward ds or ls. It’s pretty easy to figure out the answer, so I’m hoping the choices will be more difficult in the actual game. I’m hoping, too, that the ds choices won’t be the thuggish, gimme-your-credits-or-die type, like in KotOR.
***KotOR (not KotOR II) spoilers below***
1. How did you choose a name for your blog?
bloggo chicago was going to be based on goings-on in Chicago, specifically through my observations. “bloggo,” which has an appealing sound created by its rhyme with “Chicago,” is a play on “Blago,” a shortened form of Blagojevich, which is the current Illinois governor’s last name. also, Rod Blagojevich just happens to live in our neighborhood, about 2-3 blocks away, so i found the word amusing. although he might not.
2. How many times have you changed the name of your blog?
this particular blog has always had the same name.
3. How many blogs to you update regularly?
currently i maintain 4 blogs and 1 photoblog.
4. How many times have you moved in your life?
approximately 21 times.
5. On a scale of 1-10, how stressful is moving (in your opinion)?
if 10’s the worst, then 10. moving is one of the things i find most stressful. i absolutely can not stand moving.
6. When moving, do you/would you rent a moving van/truck?
my last move was in 2001, from Columbus, OH, to Chicago. we rented a truck and a trailer-type thing because Brian and i each had a car. he was going to drive the truck while i drove one of the cars, which left us one driver short.
the next time we move, i swear, we’re hiring movers! and hopefully, we’ll be moving into a place of our own.
7. Do you wear glasses? If so, how old were you when you needed them?
i’ve been wearing glasses since i was 8, and i absolutely cannot see without them. i usually wear contacts, however.
8. What one question would you hope someone running a meme, would ask?
“if you were going to develop your own meme, what kind would you create?”
