Intermission

I'm writing this just to thank the 3 people out there who read this (and who have the audacity to email me wondering where I've been, and just what the hell is going on), and to let you know all's well, and that I'll be back soon. (Like you really care, you bloodsuckers).

Meanwhile, its: onwards & upwards / chocks away boys / pip-pip & all that rot / etc. I suppose the best way to explain what's happening right now, is left to the magical wordsmithing of George Lucas who can really turn a phrase. (Fun Fact: When they were filming the first Star Wars, Harrison Ford said "George, you can type this shit, but you sure can't say it."

That being said - this is where we part ways once again.


Han Solo: [sounding official] Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal.
Voice: What happened?
Han Solo: [getting nervous] Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?
Voice: We're sending a squad up.
Han Solo: Uh, uh... negative, negative. We had a reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak, very dangerous.
Voice: Who is this? What's your operating number?
Han Solo: Uh...
[Han shoots the intercom]
Han Solo: [muttering] Boring conversation, anyway.


I couldn't have said it better myself.
