The fact that (censored) gets killed in the Yuzzam Vong (or however the hell you spell that name) series is the main reason that I haven't tracked those books down. It's stupid. Breaks all the rules of a major sci-fi series.
X-Wing is definitely the second best set I've read, and I probably actually read it more often then Zahn's books for the descriptions of dogfights, which are excellent. Overall, Zahn's work is better, though.

But Macavenger seemed to forget that Vader was now being called Anakin, since he turned away from the dark side just before he died in "Return of the Jedi." Darth Maul and Macavenger are no match for the four Jedis, and Skyblade eventually throws both of them back into the Boozerama Bar.
"Well done boys," Skyblade tells his fellow Jedis as they sip their Dr. Peppers.

You're forgetting about Exar Kun. And of course, I had a backup plan. Change Darth Vader to Nikkos Tyris. I realized after I posted that that Darth Vader doesn't technically have a spirit.

Uh, Vader became a member of the good force.
Mac's force of evil attempts to kill Skyblade and his noble Jedis, but upon lifting his hand, Skyblade forces all the dark members to fall back into the Boozerama Bar.
Mac waves, and the sithlords come back up, surrounding Skyblade. "Not so easy, Cap'n. We have the force too."
Darth Vader doesn't have a spirit, since he's a separate person from Anakin.
Also, keep in mind that Exar Kun and Nikkos Tyris are two of the best swordsmen ever known to the Jedi.

Well, that's why I put 13 and up.
Spacey looks at all the Star Wars freaks. "Y'know... I never did like that stupid Luke kid. He was lame." "ANAKIN ALL THE WAY!" Anakin = Darth Vader <inhale...exhale...> DUH!

AS Spacey searches the web on his G4, he comes across an EV site just by typing it in on the SEARCH field in the browser. The beginning of the page looks like (url="http://"http://www.escapevelocity.com/")this(/url). "Hmm."
"Does this look like an Ambrosia site? I don't think so. It looks like a business site for maybe a web server. Hmm. Think someone is steeling the name? Well, I guess it's not illegal, but it seems to be a little coincidental, eh?"
Mac seems to think the dark side of the force is more powerful or something.
As Mac is about ti kill Skyblade with his saber, it suddenly disappears from his hand. The other sith lords are suddenly defenseless as well, and their heads are lying in the clouds within seconds. When will they learn that evil never wins...
Originally posted by Captain Skyblade: **Mac seems to think the dark side of the force is more powerful or something.:p
Skyblade, you ought to know that even Jedi can't just make things disappear.
Before Skyblade can kill them, all the sith's lightsabers come back to their hands, and the battle continues. Since Mac's team has superior swordsmen though, Skyblade's team quickly begins losing.
(Also, we can use our power to attack, you can only use yours to defend yourself. )
Payback thinks there's some odd stuff going on this bar. He whips out his 15-plus-year-old Transformer toys (such as Pipes , how many of you remember him?) and decides they are much more fun to play with than Jedi.

You forgot to add the "I think" part in here. Remember, you opinion is not absolute, just like mine isn't. I believe differently, and there really isn't any way to convince me otherwise. Notice how in my previous rant I refer to my own opinion and refrain from generalizations that try to make decisins from other people. I would appreciate such courtesies in any responses you have, and I'm sorry if this is flaming.

Insano shoots Jar Jar as he tries to run out the door. He then rips his ears off and sells them for a million credits a piece. Any other body parts are 2 million.
Oooh! I always wanted a pair of Jar Jar ears. Corey forks over 1.85 million for the lot.

Jimbob pays 4 million for the legs and uses them to beat Insano to death. He takes all the other parts from him and sells them on earth, where the Confeds pay 10 miilion for every square inch. "Suckers!" He yells, heading back to the bar.

No, I didn't. In an essay type writing, as that was in some ways, it is assumed that the writing represents the author's opinion, and writing "I think" is redundant. My English teacher last year made a big deal about that once, so don't try to tell me otherwise.
Mac reincarnates Jar Jar because he was kinda cool, then puts on a heavy duty flame retardant suit.
Corey fixes the ears to a piece of rubber and walks around talking in a high, squeaky voice. But when Mac reincarnates JJ, they go flying back onto his body. "HEY! I want a refund!!!!!!!"
