The Quote of the Day from one year ago!

Darths and Droids (+2)
"Ooh! How mildly annoying... [consumed by fire] Zam... If only you could see what I've seen with your eyes! I've seen things your people wouldn't believe.

[collapses] Rosebud..."

Knight Errant (+4)
"The results of Treece's raids [against the Sith] generally pleased the Chancellor. The morale boost came cheaply; all ships and munitions involved came from private contributions. It was a much different reaction than Jedi Knight Revan had received, centuries earlier, in his own extracurricular efforts against the Mandalorians.
