Well it has been quite a long time since I have seen you guys, so hopefully some of you are still with me. Tonight though, I bring you a probably long overdue blog index. I know this isn't what you guys wanted from you, but hopefully it will give some of you a chance to read some of my earlier entries if you haven't already.
Let's go with a favorite series of mine that is fairly long. The Palpatine the Planner series:
"Order 66?!...I Just Finished Order 65!"
"It's Not Legal...But He Seems Like A Nice Guy!"
"Something Tells Me I'm Getting A Raw Deal!"
"Should Have Stuck To The Plans!"
"War, What Is It Good For?"
Palpatine The Planner Meets Padme...The Bait!
The Tragedy Of Palpatine The Planner
And the Two Part series that started it all:
Part One
Part Two
Then these are all of my early entries, which were all about responses to fan complaints about the PT and why things ended up the way they were. I hope those of you who have had some of these complaints will at least give these a chance and see if I can help explain a few things.
Why The Name Skywalker Might Not Give Luke Away.
Why The PT Doesn't Look Like The OT
The Problem With Droids
The Ghost Of Hayden Christensen (A personal favorite of mine)
The Greatest Villains Never Used
Different Strengths
Different Strengths...Again
The Ultimate Hero? (another favorite)
The Jar Jar Conundrum (love this one, especially the title)
Fixin' What Aint Broke (I hope those of you have complained about all of the changes made to the OT will read this one)
"The Force Is All Around You...In Your Bloodstream!" (The last entry covering complaints)
Personal Favorties:
"But I Need My Weapons!"
Like Father...Like Son?
"I Don't Want To Go Into The Family Business!" (Love the conclusion to that two-part series. First part above)
"Something Tells Me I've Been Here Before" (all about the two choices Anakin made, towards the Light and Darkside)
"I'm Finally Free!...To Do What I'm Told!....Hey Wait!" (Anakin's continual slavery throughout his entire life, and how it affected him)
Allright those aren't all of the Favorites, but some are interspersed in other areas. Next are Blog entries that discuss the Jedi Philosophy as well as the Sith philosophy.
"What Do You Know? We Were Wrong! (beginning of a two-part series that talked about the prophesy. I love this series and hope this clears up what exactly the prophesy was)
"I Can't Help But Feel That This Is Somehow Our Fault" (end of that two-part series)
"The Power Of The Star Wars Televangelists!" (Another personal favorite that really goes into the beliefs of the Jedi)
"Just Playin' With Their Lazer Swords!" (two-part series about what it means to be a Jedi)
"You Won't Like Me When I'm Angry!" (end of that two-part series)
"But I Did It For You!" (What it means to be a Sith, love this one)
Two new ones:
"Well Some One Has To Go First!"
"But You're Supposed To Be The Good Guys!" (These Last two kind of go together in a series, so it's probably best to treat them that way)
My very well received Mace Windu Series:
Mace Windu, We Hardly Knew Ye!
Mace Windu, We Know Ye A Little Better Now!
Mace Windu We Get To Know Ye...Again!
A few about Luke and his father Anakin, in which I compare and contrast them, the choices they made and how they came out so differently.
The Amazing Skywalkers, And Their Flying Arms!
"And The Cats, And The Cradle, And The Silver Spoon..."
"Lovin' You Is Easy Cause You're Beautiful!" (this is actually my latest real one, and is one of my favorites)
And all of the rest, which are still really good, but don't particularly fit into any category.
"Maybe It Was Something I said?" (This is all about Obi-Wan's training and what affect--if any--it had towards Anakin's decision to turn to the Darkside)
The Vastness Of The Expanded Universe!
What's In a Name?
What Makes This Duel So Fateful? (The purpose behind the awesome "Duel of the Fates" music)
The Sage Advice of Dr. Sigmund.....Yoda! (all about Yoda's advice to Anakin in ROTS, and how it affected him).
Well tis about time to update this a little. In the interim I have written a handful of blogs reguarding the EU, which many people had requested from me back with I posted with great frequency:
"I Can't Compete With Anakin Skywalker!" (this is my first and long anticipated EU entry).
"The Force Is Weak In Ths One...That's Bad!" (kind of a part-two to the entry above, and should be treated as such).
Tipping The Balance (Jacen's Fall Part One) (still have not concluded this series, but am waiting for the end of the LOTF series before I feel I can do so successfully).
Wow, that's quite a few more than I thought there would be. So I hope you guys wanted this, I know I had one request for it, but I hope others enjoy. If you have any comments to put on this one, or anything you would like to see me cover in the future, or even a compliment or two (not expecting much of these since I've been gone for so long), or even something that upsets you, I am open for comments. See you guys tomorrow!

The Power to Cheat Death...No Longer An Empty Promise! (Really like this one, as it talks about how influentialy Qui-Gon Jinn was, and has a good point to it).
