Seattle Times:
It's official, Jeff Tweiten and John Guth of Seattle, WA are the first two guys to be waiting for "Star Wars: EPISODE II Attack of the Clones."
Waiting, outside of the Cinerama movie theatre in Seattle, WA are two dedicated Star Wars fans who will spend over four months on the streets of Seattle, dedicating their lives to a cultural phenomenon that has inspired their hearts and instructed their values throughout their lives. Jeff Tweiten was first to arrive on January 1st, 2002 and was soon accompanied by his friend John Guth.
This four and a half month period will be the longest wait in known record books, for two folks to wait together for a movie. When asked why, "we love Star Wars and I want to create sort of a life art project out of this that can be displayed once this is over with, " says Jeff Tweiten. Jeff continues, "Over the course of the next four months we plan on capturing our adventures and experiences on the streets of Seattle with our cameras and journals. What we do with it after it's all done with...ask us then."
The entire concept was masterminded by Jeff over a year ago, "I wanted to wait in line for two years, but just couldn't do it, so I figured what a great way to start off a new year." John concluded, "when Jeff mentioned the idea to me a year ago, I have to admit, I too thought if was off the wall, but after convincing me and seeing the fun in store I just had to join him."

It could be worse, there could be an internet geek out there sweltering in front of a computer somewhere complaining about the sci-fi geeks, ah well, glad we don;t have any of that here........
;)

I suppose there had to be two of them, else it wouldn't have been a 'line' would it.
What get's me is that they think it will be fun.
I hope it's really, really cold.

I know that,it's just fun to point and laugh at you.
And I may be generalising...ok, I am...but why is it always sci-fi fans that appear this dysfunctional and just plain odd.
Don't they have jobs? Partners?
2 months in line...*shakes head*

I love sci-fi, as you'll know...
But this sort of thing is bloody ridiculous.
Yes, I *know* I have the passport thing, but there were other reasons behind that, not simply a love of sci-fi in general or Star Wars in particular.
