The oscillating airflow droid that I keep in my bedroom finally conked out, so I went out and bought a new one this weekend (yes, we may still need droids of this type at this time of year here in a semi-desert environment).
Put it together myself, though the box it came in looked like it had been previously opened and taped shut, so the K-Mart Jawas who sold it to me might have been trying to pull a fast one.
Will be sleeping with one eye open for a few nights.
Not sure if I can trust it yet.
If I can’t, I’ll have to take it down to Anchorhead and have its memory flushed.
WHAT ON EARTH IS HE TALKING ABOUT?

. . . so the K-Mart Jawas who sold it to might have been trying to pull a fast one.
Jawas? What, or who, is that?
Jawas are kinda cute, but not very trustworthy.

Had one o’ these droids when I lived on Ord Mantrell. Worked like a charm. Til I realized it was intercepting my Rebel Alliance communiques & redirecting them to the Empire! Met the business end of my blaster pretty quick!
Ya just can’t trust a droid spy!
This is my favorite post. Ever.
Glad you liked it! I am ta please.
One disappointment, though: I couldn’t get any gold-plated coverings for the new airflow droid.
Maybe later.
