Can anyone name me some good reasons why Hilary should be president? I would like your opinion as well as some reputable sources.

Why not read through the 4, 000 other threads on this subject?

Damn you Bann-ed!

Reputable sources about opinions?

Because everyone knows there are no good reasons there and none will show up here either?

I did the Kessel Run faster than you could think '12 parsecs'.

Because she has the same last name as Bill Clinton? :confused:

You took a messure of distance? ;)

I did the Kessel Run faster than you could think "12 parsecs". This takes about as long to think as "shelve carsex". The fact that a parsec is a measure of distance and not time is actually irrelevant. The Run took me less time to do than it takes an individual to think "12 parsecs". :p

‘Doing the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs’ means you succesfully charted a flightpath through The Maw (a collection of black holes near the planet Kessel) of only 12 parsecs in length, thus massively shortening your flight time.

So Han is not only a fast pilot; more importantly, he’s a skilled pilot. ;)

Interesting thing to note: the original script for Star Wars treated the 12 parsecs comment as a trick that Han used to try to impress landlubbers.

That’s the second-coolest piece of trivia I’ve learned today. Thanks!

First-coolest: The shaving mirror that Bill Adama uses in BSG is an Ikea product called the Fräck. :)

How exactly do you masters get a thread to switch from politics to Star Wars so fast? I see I lack knowledge in the ways of the Force.

Patience, my young Padawan. :p

Partly it’s skill; partly it’s because there’s (approximately) 50 billion threads on the election right now, and there’s still about a year to go...
