I have to admit, I'm feeling increasingly sinister and maniacal now that I have an avatar. Today at work I found myself struggling with the impulse to crush an upstart draftsman's larynx with my mind.

Glad you like it. My oldest daughter has discovered the Star Wars movies, and I'm fielding a great many questions about the Force and the history of the Sith and so forth these days.

At work my project team's studio is behind a glass partition...if someone forgets their pass key, the easiest way to let them in is for someone already inside to put some part of their body close enough to the door for the sensors to pick them up and unlock it. I found myself suggesting the other day to the associate who sits nearest the door that she should unlock it with one of those Jedi gestures that seems to accompany feats of telekinesis in the movies...

Lewis, stop with the Jedi hand movements! Look what it's done to my back wheel!

P.S. Now please put it down!

P.P.S. If your daughter is really into the Jedi thing, perhaps she'd be interesting in learning about Chi Kung (Qi Gong) training where the practitioner learns to control the bio-electric energy (Chi or Qi) in their body to increase strength, speed, vitality or even balance internal energy and increase the body's healing powers. My Qi Gong Master always talked about practicing diligently and you will become a Jedi Master!

P.P.P.S. My Qi Gong and Gong Fu (Kung Fu) Master is in Boston with a school in Jamaica Plains and one in North Andover. PM me if you want more info. Cheers! ...and may the Force be with you!

I'm just itching for someone to get out of line...so I can Moderate them, Jedi-style:

You are really sorry you wrote that.

"I'm really sorry I wrote that."

You won't post anything like that again.

"I won't post anything like that again."

You are going to turn off the computer, go outside for a few minutes, and re-think your life.

"I'm going to turn off my computer now, go outside, and re-think my life."

Damn, you're good!

...must go rethink my life...

I'm going to re-think wether to go downstairs for another beer. After all, it's Saturday Night (Live?)

Gai, I really like your new Avatar. I decided to change mine again, for a couple of days at least.

Gaieus · 18 Jan 2008, 12:26

And have you also seen Eric "what" I'm looking "into" through that theodolite?

boofredlay · 18 Jan 2008, 12:26

I did see that. You posted it in another thread but thanks for the double take.

Can an(other) old man still sign up for that dig?

Gaieus · 18 Jan 2008, 12:27

Tom, it was a very nice dig. Just look at some of the pics here:

We even set up a "committee" for employing "talented drawers and technicians"
