I am extremely excited. My first hilt that I have ever built will be arriving today buy UPS. All I have to say is UPS better not screw up.

Yes it is a MHS. Just have to put it together and add the electronics for the Green LED and I'm ready to go. I will have to continue my research for sound so that I can eventually add sound to it as well. Yep excited am I.

That's funny... my neighbor works for UPS... and she smokes her fair share. :?

One time her kid stole the oregano... nothing got said because she didn't want to admit she had it in the first place. "YOU STOLE MY WEED!" Isn't exactly something a parent should have to say...

had a nice experience with ups this morning, had a vader comin in, origin is less that 5 hours away, took 3 days to get to the local depot... so tracking shows arival scan and out for delivery at 4 am, i call the office and tell them the info and that i want it held and ill come by shortly to pick it up, they're response is call back in 15 so we can get it in hand and ready for ya... call back and they say everythings good, they have the package, dealtree vader
sorry do-clo i sniped ya, ill make it up to ya later... i head up there and the package is not only the right shape to be a saber, hell its something from gevalia cafe or some other fru fru crap... sat in the depot for nearly an hour for them to try to pass off the wrong package to me! no wonder ups stock is on a steady decline

Some how, I am certain that the subtle coolness in which said sarcasm would be delivered would be completely lost.

But ya know, that just makes it even funnier to the rest of us.

comic relief by Firebird and James... one of the main reasons for actively following these forums. There is definately something to be said for the subtle coolness that comes with rather well placed sarcasm. When done appropriately it is even better than an inside joke, what ho?
