I had forgotten about Phil. I read a long article about him, probably in an old issue of Bantha Tracks, the magazine of the Star Wars fan club. He did the stop motion animation of the alien chess set on the Millennium Falcon and he also did the Tauntauns, and the big monster under Jabba the Hut's floor. A lot of the Star Wars universe was his creation. |

A bit of Googling suggests that it's the Sunday Sport, that well known journal of record. The story is said to be fake.
Her Majesty's Press making things up? Heaven forfend. Hoax Slayer. Actually, being the increasingly world weary soul that I am, I wouldn't have been in the least bit surprised had it been true. |

I guess this is as good a place as any for this lamp I got as a belated Christmas present.
![]() It's sort of orange and the 15 watt night light bulb inside makes it glow kind of warm and fuzzy. They say it's hand carved from 250 million year old salt deposits at the base of the Himalayas. Makes me picture gnomes or monks sitting cross legged, chipping the salt in cadence. Until it said ISO-9001 & ISO-14001 certified. OK, looks good, you're interested, they go in for the kill... ![]() Walmart says, " put it next to your computer and feel your stress dissipate as the negative ions counteract the electromagnetic fields bouncing off the computer." Yes sir, we don't want to get into any of that proof business, but here is the fountain of youth and Viagra, and Chocolate truffles rolled into one. Then they spend a lot of space helping you decide what size/how many, you need for your cubicle, home, or business. Oh well, it looks cool, kind of romantic, when it's lit up. ![]()

A friend of mine had one and the bulb eventually burnt out and he delayed in replacing it. Eventually the steamy, swampy summer came along and without a bulb providing heat, hey presto! salt did what salt does. One day he notices that the lamp is sitting in a puddle of salt water stewing in its own juices. The salt corroded all the wiring and socket and so forth, also warping the wooden base. I took it home thinking I'd rehab it as a evening project and it's been in my basement for a year.
I like them for the quality of the light, I make my own negative ions.
