Trips Down Memory Sewer: "Blasted kids. Where's the whiskey?"

Back at the start of 1996, New Year's weekend, I was up in Connecticut at Purge's condo with the hometown posse, and amongst the nerdery was a session of the Star Wars role-playing game.

I no longer recall whether I chose this template for my character, or I was awarded it by popular demand.

All I know is I failed every roll I made, and wound up tied to a medical table on a smuggling ship (owned and piloted by Metrocake's character), being tortured by a demented Ewok (played by Tempest's best friend) while Doc was failing every roll as a protocol droid trying to help me get away from the demented Ewok.

"The dark side kept calling, and things never worked quite the way you wanted them to."

Good times.  Good times.

"Man, if we ran the Death Star, you wouldn't even need a rebel strike force.  One pissed-off Wookie could punch a junction box and the damn thing would detonate."

I overheard a colleague say "Star Wars Liquor Cabinet" a few minutes ago, so I would rather search the internet for that than beat my head against certain data walls right now.

Apparently, these pictures have been around for a while.

At an AT-AT bar in a booth somewhere at Comic-Con:

Bartender in Jedi Robes: "Okay, boys, next round.  What'll you have?"

Boba Fett cosplayer: "I'll have a Dagobah Swamp Water."

Princess-Leia-on-Hoth cosplayer: "I'll have a Tibanna Gas-Processor."

Random guy in a red shirt: "Got any Romulan ale?"
Bartender in Jedi Robes: "Get out of here before I break your antique bifocals."
