Hey there everyone,



Well, now that I'm close to post number 300 I thought I'd do an intro thread... it seems like I'll be hanging around for a while now biggrin



Edit:

Yep, this is all changed cos I'm not feeling as sentimental as I was when I wrote the last intro.



I'm 28, live outside Belfast in Northern Ireland, run the fire performance group FirePoise (www.firepoise.com), like to travel and good music.



My myspace page is www.myspace.com/clarepalmer



Take care

bye

Well that's just promoting the illegal trade in faux skins. And encouraging 3rd world farmers to start faux farms.

All those poor baby fauxes that have to die to make one hat band..... You should be ashamed of yourself tongue

Indeed.



I'm worried about that too.



All those baby fauxes. What did they ever do?!!



And of course, one day my hat might decide I'm not good enough. Find another head to wear. What will I do then?! I'll be hatless, rejected by the faux.



Sob.

Or maybe faux with carefully inserted LEDs?



I've heard there's lots of exciting glow technology about to make it onto the market.



Although, that could be just a cruel rumour that has been circulating for years.

Well the post originally said



"You been watching yoda porn again?"



But I decided that no one else would find that funny but me. And it would baffle and confuse everyone. So I edited. Badly it seems.....

Have you seen the sequel? It's got wookies, ewoks and sand people. That bit with Jabba the Hutt and the rancor is just wrong though.
