Space Wheat Desktop
The new Tusken Farmers Station Entrance is now available as wallpaper - features a slightly larger, clearer image than what appears out front:

1024 x 768 (139K)
1280 x 1024 (198K)

THX 1138
That George Lucas Biography special last night was pretty good stuff. It did, however, lack the VH1 Behind-the-Music-style thrill of watching some guy find huge success then "hit rock bottom" only to make a successful comeback. George never really "hit rock bottom", professionally speaking (though some would say that E1 makes for a pretty strong argument to the contrary).

Also made me quite certain I could watch a whole 2-hour special just on Skywalker Ranch. The Ranch material was passed over way too fast...

Muppetational
Where puppet bands are concerned, none hath rocked harder than Dr.Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. The band is now being immortalized in plastic, starting with the good Doctor himself. Rock on.

Those hip to the Electric Mayhem scene can also dig on the complete Muppet song lyrics.

Tusken Farmers
An all-new Station Entrance just went up. Previous entrance has been demoted to archive status. Once again, the new deal will be available as wallpaper (soon).

Shop Smart, Shop S-Mart
Toshi Station is pleased to announce our new Station Sponsor, AisleSniper.com. Nicely designed site and a good bunch o' people over there - also happens to be the recommended location to pre-order that limited 12" Ash due out in March - a mere $30, which is about $10 cheaper than most places...

I am a Defender-Ship
What pre-1985 video game character are you?

I am fiercely protective of my friends and loved ones, and unforgiving of any who would hurt them. Speed and foresight are my strengths, at the cost of a little clumsiness. I'm most comfortable with a few friends, but sometimes particularly enjoy spending time in larger groups.
