2nd. Question
According to Yoda in Star Wars Episode V The Empire strikes back, what and where is the Force?
The force is an energy that surrounds us. Binds us. It is in all living things. The tree. /Yoda points with his gimmer stick The rock. /Yoda points again
The force is an energy that surrounds us. Binds us. It is in all living things. The tree. The rock.
"Life creates it. Makes it grow. Luminar beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the force around you. Between here ... there. The tree, the rock. Yes ... even between, the land ... and the ship."
There is also these things called Midi-chlorians which live in the cells of all living things.
Some people don't like them, cause they seem to think Midi-chlorians provide you with the force. This is not true. They are merly an indicator on how strong the person can become. :D They are not the means to be intune with the Force.
Yoda says it is in all living things. Of course we later find out that this isn't true with the introduction of the Yuzhon Vong (sp?).
The force is an energy that surrounds us. Binds us. It is in all living things. The tree. The rock.
The force is an energy that copies us. Pastes us. It is in all living things. The setsuko. The Com Raven.
......
:D
The force is an energy that copies us. Pastes us. It is in all living things. The setsuko. The Com Raven.
Wait a second.......that's not the answer.....
Sounds pretty close to me. :p
Answer:
Life creates it. Makes it grow. Luminar beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the force around you. Between here ... there. The tree, the rock. Yes ... even between, the land ... and the ship.

Wraith Squadron!
Wraith Squadron was assembled by Wedge Antilles sometime in the second half of year 7 A.B.Y. It was composed of commandos, snipers, spies and infiltrators, making it capable to achieve much more than just dog fighting and blasting the crap out of ships. :D
Yeah, Wraith Squadron.
Kell Tainer is probably my favourite from those books.
yeah, Kell Tainer is the coolest Wraith...
also, Corran Horn is a cool chara...

Well my favorite Charachter is Garik Loran. and to the ones who read the book know that my Nick, Wraith 8, is his callsign. I personally like the books very much, a lot of Humor and excitement in it. In the first book Kell was my Favorite, but in Iron Fist and Solo Command i thought Garik was cooler :D

Give in to the insanity. It is unreasonable, but it is your destiny!
Nien Nunb, who also copiloted the Millenium Falcon when Han Solo blew up the 2nd Death Star.
Oh, and here's my shot at the bonus: Nien is a sollustan, and the language used to portrait his language is actually a Kenyan dialect, called Hayan. :)
Nien Nunb, a Sullustan and long time friend and partner of Lando Calrissian. He also copiloted the Millenium Falcon when Lando - along with Wedge - blew up the 2nd Death Star.
Yes he spoke Haya, a Kenyan dialect. and here's something found funny:
According to one popular anecdote, one of Nunb's lines translates to "one thousand herds of elephants are standing on my foot."
:D
LOL Would have loved to know exactly when in the movie he supposed to have said that. :D
He called Nien Nunb. As others have mentioned he's the Sullustian who copiloted the Falcon in RotJ. He wanted his help because Sullustians are very much at home in the dark. That's what was needed to mine the spice on Kessel.
*hits her head at the keyboard* WTF? I must have been very groggy this morning, Han solo destroying the 2:nd death star? He was on Endor for god's sake!
*very embarrassed* :D
Well, he blew up something that allowed Lando blowing up the Death Star, so you're kinda right. lol :D

5th Question:
What is the designation of the red astromech droid Uncle Owen purchases before R2-D2?
I believe it was R5-D4, built by Industrial Automaton.
There have been many rumors about R5-D4 on why his motivator blew. One source state that R2-D2 sabotaged him to ensure he was not bought. Another states that he blew his own motivator so that R2 and 3PO wouldn't be seperated. And another states that R5-D4 was once a great Jedi - named Skippy. :D
The fact is that the R5 line was a cheap knockoff version to the previouse succesfull lines, in addition to his poor state at the time.
Time to get on the Trivia BandWagon...
Ok, Answer - R5-D4
extra-info: Indeed a cheap knock-off line designed to capitalise on the success of the R2 unit and appeal to more civilians due to their ability to pilot speeders independently, they tended to break down frequently and made consumers lose faith in Industrial Automaton until they released the R7 series...
can I have the bonus point for this being my first answer? Pretty please? Pretty please with Jar Jar's head on top? :p
R5 D4 - kenner's ****tiest POTF 2 figure.
Answer:
R5-D4

6th. Question:
What is the name of the creature that pushes the force away? it makes a force free bubble around it. what is the name of that creature?
The creature is a Ysalamari,
a small creature that looks like a caterpillar/lizard and is native to the planet Wayland. They were first used openly by Grand Admiral Thrawn, and after his death, anyone else who could find Wayland (like Talon Karrde). Scientists theorised that the Ysalamari's uniqyue ability was evolved as a form of defence from predators that hunt using the force as their primary scent (like the vornskyr - a panther-esque creature with a vicious stinging tale - that was later used as a genetic template for Yuuhzan-Vong Shapers to produce their dreaded Jedi-hunting Voxyn).
Thrawn first used the Ysalamari in conjunction with the cloning facilities on Wayland to produce a clone that would not go insane due to 'the pressure of the force' on their growth accelerated conciousness. This would allow him to quickly create a high-quality navy to crew his Katana fleet of dreadnauts. He later used ysalamari to avoid being fried by insane Jedi-clone Joruus C'boath (who was originally intended by Zahn to be an insane clone of Obi-Wan Kenobi, but Lucas shut that idea down).
enough background knowledge for bonus?
Ysalamari. Also the name of a fun deck in the Star Wars card game!
