    The greatest thing about the Jedi story is that Tesco (the store in question) have really gotten into it, saying

    "Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda and Luke Skywalker all appeared hoodless without ever going over to the Dark Side and we are only aware of the Emperor as one who never removed his hood."

    and most tellingly

    "If Jedi walk around our stores with their hoods on, they'll miss lots of special offers."

    I personally can't wait to see if they have a "No Droids" rule.

    I'm pretty sure ED is not a lifesaver. It's embarrassing for some guys.

    Also, are there no females dying in combat? I'm not familiar with the intricacies of US Army gender rules. If they aren't, I applaud them in addition to just serving.

    @jeevesofRKdia: I'm not sure of this, but I don't think that females are assigned to combat roles in the US military.

    Seriously? The "International Church of Jediism"? I don't even know how to feel about this. Is he the only member? Does this 23 year old have a following? He probably founded this as a club so he can look cool on internet forums and to his online gaming "friends". Yep, no respect for this guy...

    I have the same username on virtually all sites, and the same password everywhere (except certain sites and sites that demand more than 6 characters). You know what my "special" password is for the 8 characters or longer is? My lastnamefirstname. Or an outdated candy. Isn't that lame? But idk anyone who would want my accounts, with the dumb crap I put on them I usually don't want them either.

    actually, "La Farolera Tropezó" is at least the lyrics of a song for kids! Enjoy!

    LA FAROLERA

    La Farolera tropezó
    y en la calle se cayó
    y al pasar por un cuartel
    se enamoró de un coronel.

    Alcen las banderas
    para que pase la Farolera.
    Ponga la escalera
    y encienda el farol.

    Después de encendido
    se puso a contar
    y todas las cuentas
    salieron cabal.

    Dos y dos son cuatro,
    cuatro y dos son seis,
    seis y dos son ocho
    y ocho dieciséis,
    y ocho veinticuatro,
    y ocho treinta y dos.
    Ay, niña bendita,
    me arrodillo en vos.

    The second most prevalent password in the world is generally chosen after the following messages:
    "your password is too short"
    "your password needs a number"
    "your password cannot contain any of the following characters"
    "your password must not contain spaces"

    At which point, the password "FUCKYOUPASSWORD" is typed in.
