Topic: I wonder...(things I think about)

[abnormaltoy]

I wonder why...the sweet little lady in the freecreditreport.com commercial in the seafood restaurant is just smiling and happily bobbing her head along with the music...until the bass player sings "yee haw", then she gives him a scornful glare. What happened?

I wonder why...at the end of Star Wars III Luke is an infant and in Star Wars IV (#1 for us old farts) he's maybe 20...during the same time in Episode III Obi Wan is maybe 35, but he is in his seventies by Episode IV. Is Jedi life really that hard?

  I always wonder the same thing when I see that commercial!

I also wonder what effect knowing his credit score would have had on buying a used compact and sticking to his seats. He would have had the same credit regardless and so would still have ended up with the same POS car and his posse getting laughed at.

I'm not sure, but I think they might be insinuating that someone maybe stole is identity and ruined his credit for him?  And if he had checked his credit report often he could have caught it and done something about it?

And yeah.....WTH is that old lady's problem with the yee-haw??  hahaha.....that did strike me as odd too.  I mean, the rest of the scenario is just fine but he's not allowed to yee-haw?

He is actually in his 30's in episode 3 and his 50's in episode 4, and yes, Jedi life is that hard, look at Kyp Durron, he's had a hell of a time from the beginning.

You trying to tell me Old Ben was 50 in episode IV? I'm fifty one...he's way worse looking then me. Yoda looks pretty good for his age.

Ben was born 57BBY and died 0BBY so he was 57 years old when Vader killed him.

Luke was born in 19BBY and died between Second Galactic Civil War (40ABY) and Sith-Imperial War (127ABY)

I wonder, Who wrote the book of love?

I wonder, Who wrote the book of love?

The Book of Love was a rock and roll song, originally by The Monotones. It was written by three members of the group, Warren Davis, George Malone and Charles Patrick

You know the craziest thing about opening this thread is that as I was reading abnormaltoy's original post. I was listening to the exact commercial in the living room..

ODD? 

It's a conspiracy I tell ya'!

[abnormaltoy [OP]]

I'm not certain...but, this thread may have caught the attention of some convention attendees. So, fess up, who has worn a Star Wars costume, as a teenager or adult? Who here speaks Wookie or Hutt?

I think it means you're going to eat at Long John Silver's soon (or as my late wife used to say in broken English...Long Johnson's. She almost died when I told what a long johnson was).

I used to work with this guy.  he made an life size R2D2 replica. (He's the dork in the middle with the Jedi outfit.  I don't know who the other two dorks are)

[46&2]

I think an R2D2 fetish is probably one of the stranger ones I have heard of...
