Luke & Leia in Sunday papers

Post by dranoel » Sun Oct 12, 2008 9:41 am

Page 2 of the papers features people with famous celebrity names. You would expect to find a Star Wars reference in the article... and yes, they have included Luke & Leia, the fraternal twins of... our forum member, vector_prime :)

Actually they were at STCC and we(sandtroopers) took a couple of photos with them. The dad was so proud when he told us his kids, who were twins were named Luke and Leia! :)
They also played Droid Hunt and with us and won a Vader lightsaber... The one in the article photo might be the one. lol

Let me see if I can find the pics...not sure if I have a copy.

SW Namesakes

Post by Zul » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:47 am

Hmmm..........yesterday's article about naming children after celebrities inspired me. Of course if I were to have any children, I would give them SW character namesakes like vector_prime's.

For instance :lol: :-

- the ugly greedy one is Greedo
- the lazy fat slob is Jabba
- the smart alec is Yoda
- the one who manipulates truth is Ben Kenobi
- the good-looking one is named Han Solo
And so on and so forth..........
"Size matters not.Look at me.Judge me by my size,do you?Hmm? And well you should not.For my ally is the Force.And a powerful ally it is.Life creates it,makes it grow.Its energy surrounds us and binds us.Luminous beings are we,not this crude matter..."

Maybe the one who can't say "I" in a sentence, and instead replaces it with a "mesa". :D
