Luke Rumrunner... the real story

[azeo]

It's not actually well known that Luke Skywalker started his apprenticeship in a rather different way than fictionaly
portayed. Recently discovered transcripts have revealed for the first time, in reality, how the hero of the rebellion first discovered his abilities ...

[Obi-wan] Now Luke, time to try a different way....

[Luke] Wait a minute! With the sight glasses closed, how am I supposed to see the reflux??!!!

Your thermometer can deceive you!

You must rely on a different skill...!..use your *senses* Luke...

[sounds]: hummimg, sqeaking, trickling and some splashing,

Arrghh!

Use the faucet Luke, reach out with your *FEELINGS*!!!

[Han Solo] I don't believe in all that faucet crap....

pause<>
: more sqeaking, more trickling, pause<> lip-smackings....hmmmm!

[Luke] I *did* almost see the reflux!


[Obi-wan] Well done Luke! you've taken your first step into a wider world!




don't ask me why....

[WalkingWolf]

o K -- won't ask

Good start -- when can we expect a follow-up??

[azeo]

that may have been it! anything else may be worse! waiting for inspiration.....

Next mission, the deathwish-star!
and a confrontation with Darn Invader, the insidious destroyer of all things good!


many years later, young Luke was directed to Dunderbar by a vision of his old teacher to learn the ways of the faucet from *his* old master....

Yodel sighed....it was hardwork shaping this young novice into a distilleri....

"So impatient", he groaned, "Never a distiller make you, if control the vapor *and* liquid faucet you can't, young
Rumrunner...."

"I know how to sparge my malt!" cried Luke, "and rack my finings, cut my hearts with my light-hydrometer, render my dunder back-set to the start, but how can I balance on this keg while playing that flute, while using the faucet to control the flow, you ask to much, the caps gonna blow!


might be time to quit....!


now if I was smart, I woulda created another identity to do this, christ its all without the benfit of a drink, at least that would be a good excuse! I'm off to the garage....

may the faucet be with you....
