| | OH HO! Back in my day *strokes beard* *Puffs on pipe* we had fantastic lightsaber designs. Not like the stuff you kids today have...these were quality. We would go to the hardware store and buy a thin 3-4 ft stick, some styrofoam padding, duct tape, and a plastic tube. We would wrap the stick in the padding and duct tape it on. We would then insert the stick and the padding into the plastic tube with a "Handle" sticking out the the end, and duct tape the tube in place. Ah, those were the days.

| Has anyone heard of the SCA... not light sabers but you can get organized as you beat the @#%$ out of your friends with duct tape covered ratan sticks. And you can learn to really do it well.

| Okay... that was far from constructive... and frankly quite rude. If you have a problem with Star Wars "fanboys" don't read the SW related threads.

I think he means it only applies to the fanboys that move with light bounding skips or leaps "hopless" that are strong in the force and can survive a pipebomb for they need to look for another fanboy after it.
