yeah, if jedis don't get it on, then technically they were breeding themselves out of existance anny way, so there was no great achievement in wiping them out!!!


yoda's human. the emporer is what you look like after delving into the dark side of the force for several decades, and yoda is what you look like after using the light side of the force for 900 years!

Yeah, it's an interesting thing - the dark side of the force.

On the one hand, you could a very cool suit and have your voice dubbed by James Earl Jones. And this is very tempting...

But on the other hand, you could look like the emperor, so there's a real risk about switching over to this brand of the force.

If there were some guarantee or a waranty, then maybe I might consider making the change.. dry.gif

Cool! I'll do that... but I'd like some guarantee that James Earl Jones will dub my voice if I change over to the Dark Side company.

"No guarentees are made for any of our Dark Helmut Products. We have a number of voice over specialists in our employment and they are allocated jobs on a case by case scenario. If Mr Earl Jones is available at the time of your request then he will be allocated to your Helmut. If not Ahmed Best will be next in line."

Well, becaue you are one of the few consumers who actually says please rather than demanding I will see what I can do. But please also be advised, these are dark side helmuts so it's possible you will still nto get what you want purely out of evil pleasure (this last part is a stipulation put in place by the CEO of the company - Mr. Barend is most insistant on this point).

Incidentally, this is my 500th post so I thought I'd make a note here so I can keep track in the future. I think this also puts me on the Legend status as well. If so I will get to updating my avatar as was my word in another thread.

Yes, you are officially now a LEGEND. I can see the pretty blue bars under your name. Man, I am so jealous. I have been posting for ages (five weeks! ohmy.gif ) and am still only on Boss level.

But congratulations to you, my friend!

I eagerly wait to see what your next avatar will be....

My Helmut will be voiced by Christopher Lee, except on days he's busy in which case Michael Wincot will fill in.

Supes your helmut will be voiced by you. however it will have a filter to make you soiund like 'soundwave' from the 1980s cartoon series of the Transformers.

JYAMG, your helmut will be voiced by Ron Pearlman (but i will have a switch that can change it to yoko ono if you ever act out of line).
talking while the yoko voice is activated will also be considered acting out of line, as it will be her singing voice not her talking voice.

A Mighty Pirate, in tradition with his competitive nature will be made to sound like 'Starscreen' from 80s Transformers.

Heccubus and Reader will be voiced by Heckle and Jeckyl, or if they prefer Zylons from 1970s Battle Star Galactica

who else wants in...

I draw your attention to the original disclaimer:

Please also note that just for you it was produced in larger than the customery 0.5pt font. You are considered a valued customer.
