My rant:
A few months ago, a manager (who is known for her um, well, intolerance) at JCPenney followed some people pf color around our store and called the police on them when they left. They had purchased $200 worth of merchandise so they were able to produce receipts ofr everything they had. Now the people are suing the company -- I would too if that happened to me -- and the article of the case appeared in the newspaper. The last two paragraphs of the article painted ALL JCPenney employees to be racists (It said something like "there is an unwritten policy at JCPenney to follow any Black people around the store" -- of course there isn't and never has been).
So my rant is against discrimination OF ANY KIND.[/b]
The worst part is that the manager is STILL doing the same thing...
They should have fired her or at least demoted her.

[glow=blue,3,0000]CAUTION: PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK! The contents of this post are cynical and may be depressing.
The darkside is starting to become overwhelming. Lost the job at the theater, but I got some more hours at the other job. Theater was the job I liked, and I can barely stand the other job, as it's fast food. Got a car, but it doesn't run right now and I got a ticket because the jerk who had it before didn't register it. Oh, and just in case I didn't have enough problems with trying to make it legal and paying for the ticket, the DMV is coming after me for last year's registration $$. Two of my closest friends are refusing to speak to each other and another friend is in the hospital. I need a route canal, but the dentist can't do it yet due to insurance issues.
And incredibly enough, the part that bugs me the most has to do with Star Wars. Ever since I "moved out," relations between me and my mom haven't been that great. So now Mom isn't letting me look for my Jedi costume, but she says she's looking for it. Not sure if I can believe her, so I may not be able to go to ROTS in costume. Yeah, of all the things in my life, that bugs me the most right now. Pathetic little geek, aren't I?
On the upside, I just got the coolest Jedi haricut ever and a brand new The Cheat sweatshirt. And I'm online. ;D[/glow]

Oh, sweetpea.....I find it sad that a mom would do this...I would never be mad at my kids for anything.......and I could never keep them from their StarWars, although in my house it is the other way around......but things will smooth over with her.... She will come around..You are her youngling.....
I didn't know this thread existed either....and I thought I had gone through everything....lol...but now that I do...lol, I'm like Leda...I'll fill it up at times...it is good to have a place to spout off and not be looked at funny......today I am ok, though...things are good...knock on wood.....
AHHHH...WAIT..I DO HAVE A RANT! My lightsaber that I bought at CIII only half lights up and I e-mailed Master Replicas and what did I get? .....signed up for their newsletter!! No mentio of the problem I am having....Now I have to use my Parks Saber this weekend....*sigh*

[glow=blue,3,0000]Glad I've managed to resurrect another thread. This one was always one of my favorites.
Em - That's annoying. You'd think they'd actually read their emails instead of automatically signing everyone up for the newsletter. I'd suggest emailing a complaint, but then you might get two newsletters.
Qual - You must be a minor. Are you in high school? Sorry about the teachers bro. They don't start to listen until you start to look like one of them. Then again, that applies to most adults. The only advice I can give you is to be patient and try to act as mature about it as possible. Remind them politely that they're being rude when they ignore you. Hopefully they won't ignore your advice.[/glow]

Here's what I do when I use mail2web. Open notepad or wordpad, write your e-mail. Open your e-mail composition, cut and paste what you wrote in notepad to the new message and send! truly wise, you are xana. I do this myself when I write long e-mails.

I think that the new Ep III soundtrack is just the new music for ROTS, not the whole soundtrack of the film. I'm sure that during the fights when they were switching between Obi-Wan/Anakin and Yoda/Sidius they were using some TPM music for the Yoda/Sidius parts. Now, of course all of the music for ROTS was recorded for the movie, but it used themes from the previous movies and it sounds like those were left off the Ep III CD that they released.
