			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I was having trouble getting, I decided to get my creative juices flowing. Here&#8217;s seven (possibly crazy) ideas I have to improve our lives and / or entertain everyone:  <span id="more-34"></span></p>
<p><strong>1. Force Powers</strong></p>
<p>How cool would it be to learn different powers? Maybe nothing too extreme, but say we could go on adventures to find ancient books that would teach us things about the force we cannot comprehend.</p>
<p>The power I&#8217;d like to learn the most would definitely have to be &#8220;Death Field&#8221;. This power was common throughout the KOTOR video game series. Basically what would happen is that when you are near a few enemies, you&#8217;d cast &#8220;Death Field&#8221; and it would deplete your enemies health while simultaneously recharging your own, very neat.</p>
<p><strong>2. Medical Packs</strong></p>
<p>Whenever I would become sick, I could just pull out a medkit, inject the antibodies (or whatever medical resources they&#8217;d contain) into my body and become instantly cured.</p>
<p>You would probably have to carry around more than one, because most medkits probably wouldn&#8217;t heal you completely in one use.</p>
<p><strong>3. Revamped Currency System</strong></p>
<p>Anybody playing KOTOR would know what &#8220;Credits&#8221; are. It&#8217;s a simplified currency system where everything is bought and sold using them. No pointless multiple forms like &#8220;Pennies&#8221;, &#8220;One Dollar Bills&#8221;, &#8220;Five Dollar Bills&#8221;, etc. One standard for the entire galaxy.</p>
<p><strong>4. Personal Shuttle Transport</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve always wanted my own personal air-transportation vehicle. It would make flying over traffic a breeze, be a perfect getaway vehicle (not that I&#8217;m implying you should do anything illegal), and not to mention they&#8217;d be super-cool to fly!</p>
<p>It wouldn&#8217;t have to be too big, maybe something Millennium Falcon-sized, probably a tad smaller. This way I could infiltrate through enemy defenses virtually undetected, I could explore uncharted worlds with the craft&#8217;s lightspeed hyperdrive, and I could bring a small party to travel with me.</p>
<p><strong>5. (Obedient) Droid Servants</strong></p>
<p>Having dirty houses, smudgy windows, and is not something people like to have, but unfortunately, most people have to deal with them due to time constraints in their lives. I&#8217;m also implying &#8220;forever obedient&#8221; machines here because I don&#8217;t want them to turn on us Terminator-Style.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve dreamed about having my own personal assassin droid like HK-47 from the Knights of the Old Republic Series. He&#8217;d love carnage, obey my every word, and be my own bodyguard. (not like I&#8217;d need one though, due to these following inventions&#8230;&#8230;.)</p>
<p><strong>6. A Lightsaber</strong></p>
<p>I had a dream a while back that I was a lightsaber wielding jedi (or Sith, probably the latter <img src='http://www.lightningshock.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  ), and I was a master dualist, no one could match against my skills and prowess. But then I realized, in this universe that we live in, our guns don&#8217;t shoot &#8220;laser beams&#8221; like the blasters in the Star Wars Galaxy do, they shoot actual metal bullets, which leads me to my final invention&#8230;..</p>
<p><strong>7. A Personalized Energy Shield</strong></p>
<p>If I had an invisible metallic energy shield (to protect myself from bullets, swords, etc.) surrounding myself, along with a lightsaber (the only weapon that would theoretically be able to slice through my shield), I&#8217;d be virtually invincible <img src='http://www.lightningshock.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t noticed, I&#8217;ve been playing Knights of the Old Republic 2 lately, great game.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve came up with a bunch of neat similarities between the Star Wars Galaxy and the Internet Universe below:<span id="more-26"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.webmaster-talk.com/">Webmaster-Talk</a> and the <a href="http://www.ihelpyou.com/forums/index.php">IHelpYou</a> Forums are the Jedi Temples of the Internet (The Galaxy), unlike <a href="http://forums.digitalpoint.com/">Digital Point</a>, which is a Sith Shrine, subservient to the Dark Side of the Force (spam) who use their TIE Fighters (splogs) and droids (spambots) to spew their ideas.</p>
<p>Their latest assignment to invade the planet Coruscant (<a href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a>) will fail miserably, as it has already been protected by a shield generator (PageRank) and the Planetary high council (Sergey Brin, <a href="http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/">Matt Cutts</a> et. al.) are already developing new ways to defend themselves (constant search algorithm changes).</p>
<p>Here are some of the prominent Lighthat Force Practitioners:</p>
<ul>
<li>Force Overlord <a href="http://www.yellowhousehosting.com/about/company-info.php">Steven Bradley</a></li>
<li>Jedi Master <a href="http://www.walkonmypath.com/about-adam">Adam Senour</a></li>
<li>Jedi Master <a href="http://forrestcroce.com/">Forrest Croce</a></li>
<li>Jedi Master <a href="http://www.ihelpyou.com/seo-services/about-doug.html">Doug Heil</a></li>
<li>Jedi Watchman <a href="http://www.spam-whackers.com/blog/2007/06/25/connie/">Connie Shelton</a></li>
<li>Jedi Knight <a href="http://alexandersarchive.wordpress.com/">John Alexander</a></li>
<li>Jedi Knight <a href="http://www.danlprice.co.uk/about/">Daniel Price</a></li>
<li>and of course, Jedi Counselor <a href="http://www.toptenlisted.com/ten-things-about-me">James Lewitzke</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Along with Force Adepts recently being taken on for training:</p>
<ul>
<li>Jedi Padawan <a href="http://www.thetributek.com/about/10.php">Dustin</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Remember that the Dark Side of the Force tempts us all with false prophecies (&#8220;Get-Rich-Quick&#8221; and &#8220;Achieving #1 Rankings as fast as possible&#8221;) and we must resist as much as possible.</p>
<p>Want to help join the fight? (Or you feel your name should be added to the list?) Comment below and let us know <img src='http://www.lightningshock.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
