Just a quickie before i go for the night, apparently 'The Art of Star Wars' is going to be touring europe later on in the year, the dates which i am about to give are subject to change, but this is how it currently stands,
Finland: Helsinki City Art Museum 14th August 2001-13th January 2002.
Germany,France and Spain are to be announced.
Having visited the UK version i recommend these highly!

queeq
And The Netherlands? What about the Netherlands?????? *starts crying*

queeq abides

finti
They never visit countries starting with a N. sad

queeq
That's discrimination.

queeq abides

Ratcat
Hmmmm, and I got all excited thinking this tread was gonna be about one of my favorite Disneyworld rides.

queeq
Okay, you talk about that while we sulk. Maybe you will cheer us up.

queeq abides

COREWORLD
Ratcat, tell us about the StarTours, would you say that it is the ultimate SW theme park ride? Do other OT characters appear besides Threepio and Artoo?

Ratcat
Well, there's loads of droids and a couple of Mon Calamari.

Also, Chewbacca has been spotted hanging around outside the enterance sometomes, but I've never been lucky enough to catch him...

queeq
And I suggest you don't try that either. He can rip the arms out of your sockets, Wookiees are know to do that.

queeq abides

Ratcat
Yeah and they have also been knowN to do that too.....

queeq
Okay, 1-0 for RC. He wins a spelling contest from a foreigner. Applause! laughing out loud

queeq abides

Ratcat
Foreigner? Where?

*Looks around, shocked*

queeq
*waves RC*

Yooohoooo, over here! laughing out loud

queeq abides

Ratcat
*squints in queeqs direction*

Quick, everyone, Foreigner, GET HIM!!!!

queeq
You nazi. laughing out loud

queeq abides

Ratcat
Ouch! That's not a nice thing to say, even in a joke.

Gosh22
Yeah...um, that's pretty, mean...

queeq
Oh come on. Nazis is a very funny word. laughing out loud

queeq abides

finti
the word is funny the ideology different story..

queeq
So it fits? They hated foreigners. The joke was fine.

queeq abides

Ratcat
Actually, I found it deeply offensive. To refer to anyone as a Nazi is not accepted as a joke in this country.

queeq
And I thought the English had a sense of humour. laughing out loud

Ratcat
Yes, but not about a mindset that brutally murdered so many of our civilians or that lives on is a group of mindless, racist thugs with no other agenda than white supremacy.

Sorry queeq, but the Nazi movement is not something that I appreciate being compared to.

queeq
Well, so far for the fun. I just don't get why you get so upset about that, unless there is some truth to it.

"I must have had it pretty close to the mark, with her getting all roled up like that."

Ratcat
Huh? Are you saying I must be getting riled becasue I have racist motivations or because I am VERY offended at being compared to a Nazi?

I can assure you it is the latter.

Quite frankly I am surprised the moderators have allowed you to maintain such abusive B/S for so long in this thread!

Judge not, lest ye be judged. You should understand that.....

Dim
yeah..*smacks herself for letting it go this far*


queeq, let's not call other members Nazis...it hurts people's feelings...sad
I think this has gotten waaaaaaaaaay out of hand. It's one thing to go off topic..but not like this.

queeq
I'm sorry if I offended you, but aside from the joke to your foreigners remark I never accused you of anything. Let the facts stand in my defence.

But I rest humbly rest my fate in the hands of the mods. If will not refer to any national socialist anymore. An order is an order, after all.

*walks off in shame*

Ratcat
OK, can we talk about Star Tours now?

queeq
Sure... what about it?

Ratcat
5 weeks and I'l be on it YAY!!!!!! Watch out Disney, RC's comin back and this time he's alone!!!

queeq
Alone... how sad...

Ratcat
Why is that? I am over the moon about the arrangement. Nice peaceful trip to the airport, nice quiet plane trip. Sounds ideal to me...

queeq
But it's.... alone.

Ratcat
Yeah, thet's the one, when there is no one else. Nice peaceful trip out, just what I want. Gives me time to ponder.

queeq
Ah, ponder. Tormenting the mind. Well, enjoy. laughing out loud

Ratcat
No torment, just me, my book and peace and quiet!!!

queeq
What book?

Ratcat
Balance Point I should imagine.

queeq
What's that about?

Ratcat
Dunno, haven't read it yetr. laughing out loud

Actually, it's the second hartback from NJO.

queeq
Oh, it's SW EU. Sorry, I don't really follow those releases. I have a few EU books. I am reading Book 2 of the Bounty Hunters Wars now.

Ratcat
I've been following most of the mianstream ones and I've decided I want to try and follow the NJO completely.

queeq
Well, let me know if it's any good.

Ratcat
OK, but I wanna talk about Star Tours too... laughing out loud ( 31 days BTW *BIG GRINS*)

Vector Prime (1st Hardback) - Excellent (9/10)
Dark Tide 1 Onslaught (P/B) - Just started
Dark Tide 2 Ruin (P/B) - Not Read Yet
Agents of Chaos 1 Hero's Trial (P/B) - Excellent (9.5/10)
Agents of Chaos 2 Jedi Eclipse (P/B) - Weak as the 2nd book in the series (5.5/10)
Balance Point (2nd Hardback) - Let you know

OK, that's as far as this goes here. For SW Literature we chould be using the Star Wars: Literature & Expanded Universe area of the forum.

OK, so Star Tours. He he he 31 days, at least you guys get to look forward to a week of no RC being a pain in the butt!!!big grin

queeq
Heaven! laughing out loud

Gundark

queeq
Remove the inflatable donut first. laughing out loud

Ratcat
Sorry Gundy, but I think we'll need it to get around.

finti
Whats wrong with your horse carriage Gundy?smile

Ratcat
Clip clop, clip clop.

Hehehehehehe and JFTR 30

queeq
Hey, she lives in the third millenium. She likes to get a bit of faster transport. Besides, RC, I doubt you get that things past customs.

Ratcat
Hey, I can FedEx it!

queeq
You STILL have to get it past customs, then.

Ratcat
Yeah, but I have the papers. Either that or I'll just have to rent out a twin swoop.

queeq
A twin?????? swoop.

Ratcat
Oh, if it was any one else queeq I'd not bother but you I'm just gonna slap....

queeq
Slap? Moi? But... but.... buy .... why?

Ratcat
No reason...

queeq
Yeah.... right....

Ratcat
Oh queeqy, you almost seem hurt. Awwww, I wouldn't hurt poor queeqy, He's just too cuddily. laughing out loud

queeq
*starts filling out the forum for a subscription to Barf Bag Monthly*

Dim
I don't believe it for a minute...

Ratcat
Dim, will you help him with the big words please.

queeq
No, no need. I filled it out before. I just cancelled it, thought I didn't need it. But hey, life goes about a funny way.

Ratcat
OK, well if you have it covered perhaps I can get back to arranging my Swoop.

queeq
Don't let me stop you.

Ratcat
Thanks. OK, so one deluxe swoop.

queeq
With a minibar?

Ratcat
No, do't drink and drive. And I have to do all the driving so no minibar...

queeq
Since you do all the driving, I guess you passenger may enjoy a drink or two. Or some nuts.

Ratcat
Maybe they will, maybe they won't. You'd have to ask the passenger...

queeq
Okay, give me the passenger's number.

Ratcat
I'm not sure that would be polite.

Dim
*calls queeq on his cell phone*
Make sure the bar's stocked for me..kay?

Ratcat
Oh jeezz, now I find out she's a boozer.....

Dim
Yep..boozy floozy..but then you knew that laughing out loud laughing out loud

Ratcat
OK, but you can get yourself into bed when you're too drunk to climb the stairs...

queeq
Oh oh... next thiong you'll be telling her that you are more than welcome to give her a hand.... tsk tsk tsk.

Ratcat
OH, but I am... But she knows that already.

queeq
Oh,oh...

Ratcat
What, I can't be friend;y anymore???

queeq
Friendly? Yes, I know that kind of friendly.

Ratcat
Somehow, I doubt that.

Anyway, me and the booze hound have unfinished business.

queeq
Better watch it, or it'll bite you in the butt.

Ratcat
That might require stitches....

queeq
And some tetanus shots.

Ratcat
NO, I'm up to date on those....

queeq
How about rabies? He looks pretty vicious.

Ratcat
He!?!?!?

I don't know what you're talking about, I was referring to Dim...

Gundark
Well, RC, I've already dispatched my Florida spies. They'll be watching you at Disney and then we will deal with your rebel friends soon enough. laughing out loud laughing out loud

queeq
Initiate probe droids. We'll hide them in the SW exhibits.

Gundark
I'll see to it personally, queeq. They'll be no one to stop us this time. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH laughing out loud laughing out loud

queeq
It will be a day long remembered. It will see the beginning of RC's virtue and it will soon see Dim's as well. laughing out loud

Ratcat
Why, is she going to Florida too?

Gundark
Yes. evil face

queeq
She is????? *baffled*

Ratcat
*Wonders just when Gundy and Queeq did the mind swap.....*

Ok, would someone like to fill me in BEFORE this thread closes????? I mean, there are like 4 posts left and you spring this on me....
