Old Blog Archive: Blast From The Past

This blog entry was originally posted on my now defunct Star Wars.com blog. I am now archiving it for posterity in my new, improved, and free blog.

---------------------------------------------------

I have decided to make it public. I will hold this press release, then I will answer questions.

Yes, it is true. I found it. No one believed me. They said it didn't exist. But I showed them all!

Yes! We have found.... Where in Kessel did my drum roll go? Oh, forgot to turn it on. (Drumroll) We have found...

The Diary Of A Mad Black Jedi!

That's right. Mace Windu, The "Perfect Jedi" tells all in his revealing journal. I have tortured you long enough. Here is the first entry. I might post more if you are good, or at least clean up your mess afterwards.

But first, a word from our sponsors. Just kidding. Ha ha ha!

----------------------

First Day, Eight Month [note: year is 32 BBY]

Dear Diary,

I don't really have anything interesting to say. I mean, I know I'm the best Jedi and all, but what with the Chosen One showing up, the Sith coming back and Qui-Gon getting skewered, I haven't had time to do anything fascinating.

I have come to a personal philosophy. The Jedi aren't supposed to have attachments, right? So that means no relationships, right? So, it says nothin' against one-night stands. Right? No attachments, no regrets. And there's plenty of me to go around... lotsa hot Jedi. I know I ain't the only one.

But, like I said, I have no time, what with the Sith and all. And that guy... was he the Master or Apprentice, anyway? I hope he was the master, 'cause I'd sure hate to fight the one that trained him. I'd probably get my hand cut off or somethin'.

Hey, I just realized, i ain't told you who I am. I am Mace Windu, Jedi Master. I am... well, it don't matter how old I am. I feel like I'm 26. I don't like to brag... Kessel, who'm I foolin'? I love to brag. I am the head Jedi Council Member. This makes you real popular with the chicks. Oh, if you're a chick, and roughly humanoid, then gimme a call: 2187.327.1.6.1.38. No collect calls, now.

I've got to finish this entry. The council is meeting to decide what to do with this kid. What's his name again? Ankh... Ama... Anakin! Syhawk... Skyhawk... Skyvulture... Skywalker! Anakin Skywalker. Yeah. Maybe we'll get Obi-Wan to train little Ankykin after all. That Anskin is pretty talented after all. (Sorry for using Hannakin's name so much. I find that if you repeat a name often, you remember it better.)

The meeting starts at 1800, and it's 1749. I'd better get movin. I gotta shave my head before I go.

Old Blog Archive: More Star Wars Limericks & Haiku

This blog entry was originally posted on my now defunct Star Wars.com blog. I am now archiving it for posterity in my new, improved, and free blog.

---------------------------------------------------


Limericks

Harrison wants to be Solo
But George shook his head and said, "No, no!
I've seen him before!"
But casting's a bore
So 'fore long... classic Han Solo!

Tyrannus, Darth Maul, Darth Vader
Threw Sideous a party to cater
To his every whim.
(Was a trick on him -
Was thrown down the shaft slightly later)

A Nemodian (George named him Gunray)
Went to Naboo to attack Sunday
They brought battle droids
And scared girls and boys
But they were all saved by Miss Padme

It's hard to make limericks rhyme
(Will not try to do it this time)
I never can do it
This one will prove it -
My lim'ricks should be called a crime.

My personal favorite:

There once was a Gungan named Jar Jar
Who wanted a drink at the bar bar
He forgot to pay...
Next thing he knew, they
Stuffed him in the trunk of a car car.

Padme got a present for Ani!
She thought it was his favorite candy.
It tasted like chalk
And caused him to balk,
But smiling, he said, "It's dandy!"

Haiku (sorry!)

Luke Skywalker is
A very boring Jedi
His jokes make me sleep.

Leia Solo gave
Birth to twins. Talk about a
Family curse. Ouch!

Salacious Crumb has
No idea what to do - Jabba
Died and left no food.

Where oh where has my
Little dog gome? Where oh where...
Look! There... The Sarlacc.

It is hard to make
Haiku rhyme. Maybe I can
Get Threepio to.

Why do they hate me?
I can't help it if Jar Jar
Is the name of dad!

Old Blog Archive: (Mostly) Star Wars Haiku & Limericks

This blog entry was originally posted on my now defunct Star Wars.com blog. I am now archiving it for posterity in my new, improved, and free blog.

---------------------------------------------------

Here's my little attempt at poetry. Sometimes at night, reading my FanFics from TheForce.Net on my PDA, I jump up in bed and think of a Limerick or Haiku. Then I think I will remember it in the morning, and promptly forget. So, I now have a place to drop them where I can keep them for posterity. Or at least until I stop liking them.

My inspiration comes from The Stooge's Star Wars Joke-a-Day Limerick Friday. Enjoy!

Here goes...

[April 6, 2006]

A rancor went to Jabba's palace
And applied for a job needing malice.
When asked for his name,
He replied with shame:
"My mother and dad named me Alice."

There is an Ewok named Paploo
Who couldn't find his pet named Choo!
He looked for the bug
Under all the rugs
And found it beneath Leia's shoe.

There once was a Gungan named Rick
Who thought he could write limericks.
He failed at the sport,
His poems were too short
