Our office has somewhat tempermental heating - it's either too hot or too cold. There's nothing as sophisticated as "climate control" or even as sophisticated as "a thermostat". There's some heaters, two small windows that open, and some fans. You play with a combination of these three things until the temperature reaches a bearable level. Then you pray it remains constant. You shall be rewarded, oh good and faithful servant and believer in my epic silliness.

They said it could not be done.
Okay, I'm not sure if anyone actually said it. But no one, to my knowledge, has tried to do the epic thing that I have just done. Last night, whilst in a silly mood, I felt like drawing something. And it occurred to me that since the move the Cantina has been a little... larger than before. A lot more spacious. One could almost get lost in it. Unless... unless one had.... A MAP. Ladies and gentlemen, monsters and smibbles, I have drawn for your amusement and delight, THE AW CANTINA FLOORPLAN OF DOOM. ![]() This lives here: http://fatihahiman.files.wordpress.c...icture-005.jpg Enjoy people. And if anyone would like to map the attics and basements, feel free

My favorite part of the map is the iWench 2.0.
SOMEONE should put that in a book. *glares at someone* |

I love that there is an attack pinata array. Love that.
Also, pretty handwriting.

Mmm, cheers. Luckily I have curry chicken that was marinating since yesterday. About to throw it in the oven for an early dinner.

'ed! Literally burst out laughing. The rest is so awesome, though I didn't see the choco fountains? I guess they are at the bar ![]() One day, when the epicness of your image has become a fond memory, I shall draw my own depiction of the Cantina. I consider the lake a little to the left, down a broad hill, and in a large meadow ![]() Cheers. *snuggles* *sneezes from the curry* Maybe we should slaughter a few, wrap in foil, and toss them in the smibble fire pit

Also: That map looks so epic on my screen. I could see it in it's full glory.
Does the tree play hilarious videos? Can we screen some pixar?

I'm thinking of linking to it on my FB. Not that real life people will understand, mind you. I just think it will be funny as hell.

I am in Awe. Awe, I say.
But where is the chocolate fountain for all those chocolate-covered celebrities?

I'm guessing the fountain might be on the endless buffet.
