Does Jabba ASK for anything?
Lydia: But you are a vampire. Spike: If I'm not, I'm gonna be pissed about drinking all that blood.
'Potential'
Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, by "ask" I meant "do this for me or I feed you to... I don't know, whatever the biggest creature in the dungeon is at the moment."

OK, if Jaba was marooned on present-day Earth, what job would he take?

That almost warrants COMMing. I had my mouth full of coffee.

Oh yeah:
Shop cat is making it difficult to do work. He flops on the desk and demands, DEMANDS to be pet. The nerve! Who am I to say no. Especially when he purrs so readily.
The cat is saying to you, "It's like a tide; give in to it, boy. It's society's crime, not ours!"

move out and draw fire
Wow, this is a plate of shrimp.
I was one of several recipients of an e-mail on Friday that had "network" in the subject line, except the sender left out the "w". There was an immediate Reply All, saying "What's a netork?" Then two Reply Alls to that - "A dork with a net" and "An orc with a net". The last one was mine.
The Reply All to mine was some dude saying "Did you know 'orc' was a real word, and it meant fearsome enemy? This is because Tolkein was a professor of Anglo-Saxon."
So I geek-slammed him in email.
if Jaba was marooned on present-day Earth, what job would he take?
Vice President? Talk radio personality? My (ex)boss?
Or maybe he's already here, and using the name Karl Rove.

Lucas is a hack.
I remember the first two Star Wars movies (by release date, not episode number) having some good lines. After that, not so much.

Yeah, well...I have very strong opinions about storytelling and Lucas' legacy to scifi/fantasy *and* film.
I love Irvin Kershner, who directed "Empire Strikes Back" - and I lay all of its success at his feet - and Leigh Brackett who took Lucas' wackadoodle notions and turned them into a script.
I think "Star Wars" (bah - "episode 4 - A New Hope" was NOT in the credits when I saw it 4 times in 1977) is remembered and loved so much because it was NEW. Now, in contrast to "Empire..." and some other well-done space opera films (and TV shows), it's a little thin.
But does have some very good lines. :)
