yeah, well only in recognition of a fellow inhabitee of Strangeville. A bunch of us used to have a thing based on: 'These aren't the droids you're looking for..." (in best Alec Guiness), we used it to denote anything shady or underhand...
I think the pressure tells somedays.:D

one thing that is quite fun; when you're walking towards automatic doors, wave your hand infront of it and say 'open' - kinda makes me feel like a jedi.
Hmm, speak like yoda i must

I think that it is great that you keep in contact with your friend in England. How long has this tradition continued?

eh, it's not difficult, i mean, i have a phone plan and it costs me about 9c a minute, and i consider that expensive, i can get calling cards that are literally a penny a minute :) (heh, literally (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23932&perpage=25&pagenumber=6) )
i guess it's been going on since i knew the lad, let's see, i'd just left school....about 8 years??? :)
