I have a best buy gift card, do you think I can go to the store and use that gift card to buy an amazon gift card? - James Bond (aka Igor) Dec 23, 14:08 5
- Probably not. Most stores don't let you use gift cards to buy gift cards. -- nm - Krusty Dec 23, 14:09 4

Well tat is annoying. I use CVS for quick/cheep photo development. They keep your photos online for you. - Spawn Dec 23, 12:37 11
- that's...strange -- nm - oblique Dec 23, 12:47 6
  - Yeah. Both are tied to the same email, same password, so it shouldn't be a duplcate account. - Spawn Dec 23, 13:04 5
    - WTF. She pulled up my account and there is only the current album. Yet when I log on here, the old albums are there, full of photos. - Spawn Dec 23, 13:12 4
      - Try clearing your Internet temp files -- nm - oblique Dec 23, 13:15 3

I have you, now. -- nm - Spawn Dec 23, 11:58 36

  - If you wanna get basic with it, who is the *only* person in the trilogy to take a shot at Vader? - Spawn Dec 23, 12:28 18
    - *raises his hand* ....... *vanishes in a puff of smoke* -- nm - Old Ben Kenobi si Dec 23, 12:29 17
      - I said shot, not swing. -- nm - Spawn Dec 23, 12:30 16
        
        after kenobi goes, don't they all fire toward Vader? -- nm - zork Dec 23, 12:45 15
        
        Eh, random shots and then the blast doors close. - Spawn Dec 23, 12:59 14
        
        you make a very good point. - Mel Profit Dec 23, 13:27 11
        
        talking was his way of deflecting attention from his unholstering, with darth he had the element of surprise -- nm - z-tabulous Dec 23, 13:33 1
        
        Possibly. But the fact is he didn't try and BS his way out of it with Vader. - Mel Profit Dec 23, 13:43
        
        Yup. And then Vader makes him pay for it with the torture and freezing. - Spawn Dec 23, 13:32 8
        
        For all the crap Lucas gets for the writing he did get Han right... - Mel Profit Dec 23, 13:38 5

        Those are Vader's motives. Han still gets tortured, frozen, etc. - Mel Profit Dec 23, 13:46 1
        
        he did get a few fat lips. don't forget the beating that luke took on hoth plus he got his hand sliced off. still i agree that hand was the best of th - zork Dec 23, 13:52
        
        he definitely was the best in the series. glad he wasn't killed off like he was supposed to be. -- nm - zork Dec 23, 13:33 1
        
        I still have mixed feelings on that. He lived but sort got castrated in doing so. - Spawn Dec 23, 13:34
        
        I was thinking of how he knocked Vader out of the deathstar trench, didn't realise we were including SW:ESB -- nm - zork Dec 23, 13:22 1
        
        He didn't shoot Vader, he shot the wing man who then ran into Vaders modified TIE (precursor to the Interceptors we saw in ESB). -- nm - Spawn Dec 23, 13:33
  - In ways. - Spawn Dec 23, 12:05 6
    - Vader's ships > Han's ships -- nm - TFox Dec 23, 12:06 5
      - Gotta disagree with you, there. - Spawn Dec 23, 12:13 4
        
        Fuck that steez. - TFox Dec 23, 12:17 3
        
        I still love the intro shot of the Executor... - Mel Profit Dec 23, 13:51 1
        
        *nods* -- nm - zork Dec 23, 13:53
        
        Interceptor? Falcon played ping pong with that shit. So Vader sticks to lettingother people fly him around after that. -- nm - Spawn Dec 23, 12:20
