"Where should we go for recruitment?" Frodo asked.
"There's the Message Boards..." Khadgar started.
*Visions of Bubba and Company making posts.*
"... On second thought, let's not, it's a silly place."
"What about the Phoenix?" Gilad suggested hopefully.
"The Phoenix!" several officers gasped in unison.
"What are you doing here, Khadgar?" Dax Corrin asked.
"There's a shuttle heading for the ASF, you'll be aboard."
"And if I refuse?"
Khadgar grinned, "The show must go on."
"I hate it when you use that line," Dax conceded and sighed, "When do we leave?"
"Right away."
Letters from the Cardinal...
Upcoming Features on the Original Trilogy on DVD:
1. The new, politically correct Empire is no longer "oppressive" just "a bit unfriendly".
2. Darth Vader no longer chokes officers, he just gives them stern warnings and cuts back on their benefits.
3. Also, the Death Star no longer blows up planets with its laser, but it now keeps the planet's leaders for tea and crumpets until the planet joins the Empire.
4. Admiral Ozzel is politely asked to step down, and given a pension.
5. The Emperor zapping Luke with lightning was deemed too scary for younger audiences, therefore the Emperor will now only give him a polite but firm slap on the wrist.
6. Jar Jar Binks will be edited into the trilogy, and will be a General leading the special "Dense Brigade" of Gungans on Endor.
7. Darth Vader's offer to Luke is reduced from "ruling the galaxy" to "having a loving family".
8. The Dark Side is downplayed as being just "people that are just a tad grumpy".
9. Han Solo isn't frozen in carbonite, but instead given a strong letter from Jabba saying he'd please like the money he's owed with a bit of interest.
10. Hoth, instead of being "extremely cold" will not be "a bit on the cold side, and requiring a coat".
