And he's speculating that the Teezel from the old Marvel comics was actually a listening post or relay for the YV(!)

Made note of a quote about the stellar and volumetric scope of the "Unknown Regions" in Force Heretic: Refugee, kindly forwarded by J.Vermazen, in the Galaxy commentary.

EDIT: More shameless wanking;

I can't find anything saying that.

The Galaxy

On new astrophysical concerns, and the galactic regions, etc.

I especially liked "Perhaps the animal had an annoying habit of wandering onto HoloNet channels and screaming, making it a nuisance like cattle wandering across the road or birds chewing on telephone cables?"

Can't you see it though? Vader and Palpatine discussing how to be affectively evil before being cut off in an enormously sharp and painful shrieking sound?

Relativistic velocities are attainable using ion-drive propulsion, as demonstrated by starfighters in some of the New Jedi Order novels, and as implied by the acceleration and power statistics of many starships [eg. quantified in AOTC:ICS].

Shameless plug mode ON!

Somebody check the temperature on that blue moon!

It may be a plug, but since his website isn't by itself official or canon, he has to reference something, even if it is his own book.

It's really fun I bet. It's kind of like saying something is true because I said so.

I did notice when he started doing it awhile ago, I thought it was pretty funny.

I noticed that those two pages he put up are written in a different style than his normal; I thought that rather odd.

I liked them--perhaps he's trying something new with his site.

It doesn't mesh well with the rest of the website, and I prefered the less personal tone with it. Maybe he's planning something we don't know?

He's capable of "letting his hair down" a bit, although it doesn't happen too often. He and I rank rather far apart on the formality scale

Did anybody besides myself do a double-take when they looked at the TIE Fighter game map display?

Surely you can't be serious.

Sometimes talking to Curtis is like talking to a Vulcan. But then he hits you with an unexpected zinger that just floors you! Very cool guy.

Just a question: What does a Teezl look like? Does it appear to be straight out of a H.P. Lovecraft novella, or does it look like some generic, bland creature??

Uh, Simon, Saxton does have a picture of the Teezel on the site.

As for his ability to make jokes, there's two on the Zoology page concerning the Dragonsnake on Dagobah.

I think almost everyone does.

Especially you and Wayne.
