I was sitting at home by myself one Sunday afternoon watching Ren and Stimpy on VHS.
My door bell rang and I got up to get it. I really didn't want to be bothered so I just looked through the peephole. This is what I saw.
[http://home.cogeco.ca/~darthevad/pics/peephole.gif]
I decided I didn't want any Girl Guide cookies so I wasn't going to answer the door.
As I turned to walk back into the living room, I felt an overwhelming urge to answer the door. I couldn't resist it.
Against my better judgement, I invited my guests in.
We sat watching Ren and Stimpy, drinking coffee and snacking on pretzels while we discussed plans of galactic domination.
Before my new found friends left, I was dubbed Darth Evad and asked to give up the location of some base I knew nothing of.

ruthven = a clan of scots from the isle of skye 600 years ago. 90% died from a combination of being beheaded and hacked to death by English and enemy scots and it didnt help that our only castle was built upon a uranium deposit meaning many men were infertile (true story).
